I don't understand the value of a front receiver though..... why not just back your trailer in to where it goes?
I have a narrow 300ft driveway, 90 degrees off a public road. Sometimes neighbors park across the street. Truck plus trailer is about 46'. It would be much easier with the steering wheels right at the pivot point, as I can adjust the trailer's angle with much less tow vehicle input.
Front hitches are not the cure-all for not being able to back into difficult spots. The rear of the truck is going to "cut" every corner. Okay if it's just grass, but not okay if the obstacle is the corner of a building, and the truck has to follow the trailer around that corner.
If you were thinking this would allow you to be able to keep both vehicles on the driveway, you're mistaken.
