Most Popular EcoHitch for 2017 Ford Expedition

Plastic trim that direction stated to be trimmed were not even close. Had to majorly trim plastic in bumper center section. Other than that it was straight forward

Just what I wanted. Been wanting to get this and install. Pretty straight forward for my boy and I. Took about 2 1/2 hours. Hardest part was the cutting of the plastic and marking everything but we got through it. Only thing wrong the license plat bracket was welded crooked, I don’t need it was going to run so it’s hidden. Could not ocd got me.

Perfect hitch for those needing a rack for extra space. I used a heavy duty vinyl bag to enclose my tools, cords and generator on my 12k mile trip to alaska. The held that 500lbs extremely well across the permafrost damaged Alaskan highway! No twists, no bends and no worries!

Looks great

This is the second front hitch receiver I have installed from Etrailer, and I am just as impressed with this purchase, as I was with the previous one. One thing to note: the product states is not compatible with the brush guards, and that is not accurate. It was very troublesome to lineup both the brush guard supports, and the receiver supports with the frame. But it is doable with patience, an extra set of hands, and colorful use of the adult language. (installation w/o a brush guard was a cake walk) I had my previous front hitch on an F150 for 5 years, and have had this one on my current F250 for a little over a year. They hold up very well, provide versatility to haul loads on the front of the truck, so you can fully utilize the bed, or tow a full trailer. This is now the first modification I suggest to new truck owners.

Let me start by saying this is not the first front receiver I've purchased from etrailer all my trucks get front receivers for winches. This time though the box shows up on time but the corner is blown open and the receiver is hanging out. Also the bag of bolts has been ripped open and half the bolts are loose in the open box but to my surprise after counting everything, they were all there.spray foam packing would have mitigated all that. Moving on. Went to install the receiver and the end mounting plates are 1/4 inch too tight. Won't fit the frame rails. Had to spread each side 1/8 out with a Hydraulic bottle jack. Apparently using a jig during the manufacturing process is optional these days. After all that I finally got it to fit good. It looks good and the welds seem adequate. I think it could have been installed in an hour by myself if not for having to "adjust" it but was still done in under 2 hours.
