Yes, the Curt Front Mount Hitch Receiver, # 31049, bolts to the frame of your 1997 Ford Expedition 4x4. This hitch comes with 6 carriage bolts that will be fed through the inside of the frame and out using the fish wire tool.

This hitch comes will all of the necessary mounting hardware and installation instructions and does not require any drilling or welding. I have attached a link to the installation instructions for you to check out.

I have added a link to an article on hitch installation tips and a video showing how to fish a bolt through a vehicle frame for you to reference.
