Best towing front mount receiver hitches according to redditors

I have used a hitch mounted back rack for many trips. It works great and can hold 300-500 pounds depending on the rack. Link for Hitch and rack. Video of install.

This is the tow hitch I used:

And this is the cargo carrier that attaches:

The carrier is rated for 300 lbs, but the tC's tongue weight is only rated for 200 lbs, so I try to keep it well under that (the dry weight of one of my mopeds is around 100 lbs). I use some ratcheting straps and it works like a charm.

I could probably also tow a small utility trailer for a motorcycle or kayaks or canoe or something like that, but I've never tried it. I think you could probably tow about 1000 lbs fairly easily though. The tC is geared low and has 160 hp so I'm sure it would be fine for light duty.

Yah fawkes will be awesome, I'm waiting on some stand alone shackle mounts from them but they are pretty much made to order on a lot of parts it looks (8 week wait time for the shackle tabs) When you said underneath I figured you meant like this....

Thank you!

Here is a list of all the items I purchased to do this:
Front Reciever
Drop Hitch
Plow

Just make sure that anything you order is for your year & model, as those links (the receiver specifically) is for my year.

Yea that would be impossible then. Btw, picked one of these up from Canadian Tire. Super handy unless you already have recovery hooks

Edit: this is overpriced. They are $50 at Canadian Tire.

Is this an example hitch in this scenario? http://www.amazon.com/Draw-Tite-24816-Hitch-Mazda-3/dp/B001EZ3SKY

I used Curt Hitches for both the front and back of my XJ. I tried a Reese hitch but it was a huge piece of shit (and I dont use that term often). It was multiple pieces and after it was installed it was a few inches off the ground. Total piece of crap.

Anyway back to the Curt hitches. I ordered both off of amazon so shipping was free. The came packaged well and were both one piece hitches. They did a good job on the finish and had really nice welds all around. They also came with all bolts and a tool to fish the bolts through the frame. Both of them when installed had the receiver just below the bumper.

Here's the back

I bought this from Amazon. Mounts right to the frame. 3 bolts.

Shouldn't be recovering with a towing receiver...
