Attached is a picture of the kolpin clamps, they are pretty stout. If you don't have a front reciever you could make something to bolt onto the bumper. I think I have the same bumper as the XMR so if you decide to add the front receiver hitch you'll likely have to go to harbor freight and get a hitch extension and then cut and redrill it to extend the factory reciever to be flush with the front of your bumper, at least I did on mine. But then you can add anything you want to the front fairly easy and remove it when you don't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought to add the front receiver. Then the possibilities are pretty much endless for custom attachments and really easy to swap in and out. thanks for the reply.
