Front hitch for carrying generator
I am thinking of installing a front mount hitch on my 2013 GMC diesel truck to carry our 4000 watt generator. I wonder if it will cause too much air blockage in front of the radiator to cause over he...

I just made this setup this winter.
I have 2 Honda generators that I run in parallel along with a Bergs dual feed extended run fuel tank
I installed a Curt front hitch then I made the generator holder.
The bottom part behind the licence plate (It has a hinged door)holds the fuel tank
The upper part holds the two generators. I dont travel with the generators or the fuel tank in the holder, Its only used when the van is parked.
I have another part of the cage that secures the generators to the upper part (Sorry no picture)and I also made some rain covers made from Seaboard
I also added 55watt H3 bulb driving lights, 2 for the Lo beams and 2 for the HI beams. both have a kill switch for urban areas to keep it legal.
System works great.....I dont hear the Generators while set up. The aux lighting really work great on dark roads late at night.
Hope I get the pictuere size correct
