In 2015, Polaris changed the front suspension mount bracket on the front of the frame (where the bumper mounting tabs are located). This required a new upper hitch mount design. The PZ2508 hitch fits all 2015 & newer RZR's, including the RZR 900 Trail, 900-S, 900-4, 1000-S, XP 1000, XP-4 1000 and XP Turbo. Thunderhawk Performance developed a new, multi-piece upper hitch mounting system for these 2015 & newer RZR's that utilizes a gusseted brace to tie the main hitch plate and the updated front suspension mount bracket back to the main frame rails, to pick-up the same frame mounting points as used on the 2014 models. This gusseted upper hitch mounting brace, included in the PZ2508 kit for 2015 & newer RZR's, also functions as a bumper brace and strengthens the bumper mounting tabs by tying them directly to the frame to strengthen the bumper mounts and resist bending. The bottom of this front receiver hitch is bolted directly to the frame, behind the front bumper plastic.
These Thunderhawk front 2" receiver hitches both feature 3/16" & 1/4" steel construction throughout, and are mounted directly to the frame for unsurpassed strength. Thunderhawk receiver hitches also feature an automotive-grade, reinforced receiver tubes for strength, durability and proper fitment with your towing accessories. These front receiver hitches install easily in about 45 minutes using common hand tools. These are complete kits; including the receiver hitch assembly, upper mounting braces (PZ2508 for 2015 & newer models only), all necessary hardware and illustrated instructions. These receiver hitches feature a durable black powdercoat finish and the mounting braces & hardware are zinc-plated to resist rust and stand up to rough off-road use. These front receiver hitches do NOT fit vehicles equipped with a winch. The tongue weight rating for these hitches is 125 lbs, and these hitches are NOT designed for snow-plow mounting. As with all Thunderhawk Performance products, these hitches are proudly made in the USA.
This Thunderhawk Performance receiver hitch accepts standard 2" automotive receiver hitch components. 2" receiver hitches are commonly used on most pick-up trucks. Many people already own these hitch bars and components, but these parts are also readily available at any large discount store or auto parts chain.
If installing on a RZR with a front bumper installed, be sure to verify that the bumper tubes are at least 13" apart where the receiver tube will be positioned in order to allow for installation of a common hitch pin (this can be reduced to approx 10" between tubes if using a 3.5" long bolt).
