Van Compass 2015+ Ford Transit Front Receiver Hitch
Part#
VCMP-4070
Add function to the front of your Ford Transit with the Van Compass front receiver hitch. Designed to hold items like bike / motorcycle racks, recovery shackle or even a winch cradle for vehicle recovery. Manufactured from high strength 3/16" steel and 1/4"thick square tubing, this front receiver is CNC cut, formed and welded at Van Compass to ensure a perfect fit. The receiver goes through a dual stage powder coating process once constructed. A zinc rich primer is applied and baked on before the final matte black finish for maximum corrosion protection.
The Van Compass front hitch replaces and replicates the stock front bumper hidden under the plastic front bumper fascia. It is fully compatible with all front-end sensors, including parking sensors and the brake assist / adaptive cruise control radar sensor.
