Complete Towing Package for 2004 Ford Excursion
Hitch fit as advertised. Was very easy to install. Very good shipping and a very good product.
The fit was a bit too tight but we were able to make it fit. The shipping packing was pretty lacking. Since being installed we have been using it with a spare tire mount. That works great and it makes the spare tire more accessible compared to the standard under the bed mounting. When fully loaded with a camper and towing a boat moving the spare tire to the front improves the weight distribution.
Curt actually recommended that we use etrailer. They even gave me the confirmation that the hitch would work and told us you have a video. Thanks!

Thanks Terry, and Curt! We do in fact have a video. In case you have not installed the hitch yet I went ahead and linked it for you.
Hitch was pretty easy to install. I have a 2004 F350 and the only problem I ran into was that I wasn’t able to reinstall the two tow hooks with the front hitch that I received.
Receiver hitch is fine but was shipped in a cardboard box without any packing material. Heavy steel hitch tore through the box and some of the hardware was lost in shipping. Not shipper's fault, should have been packed better.
Great customer service and product.

Wonderful, easy install
Great receiver. Didn't actually fit my truck's front bumper, but I was able to make some spacers to get it mounted. Works great for the mounting spot for a rig that holds my kayak on top of the truck.
The quality and fit is exceptional. So much so that this is the third hitch assembly I've purchased and installed. This one was for my brother in-laws 1999 F350. I also put a 10k winch on a slider that works perfectly with this assembly. Other vehicles I purchased and installed assemblies on are a 2011 F350 and a 2016 Class C motorhome. Very happy.
I installed this on my 2004 F350 super duty. The install was straight forward and for the most part easy. I did have a hard time getting the nuts on the top bolts even with the handles on them just from lack of space, but got them on there and it looks clean.
Well built. Good hardware included. Not a perfect fit. Definitely required some additional drilling and fabrication. Budget some extra time.
Installed the front hitch to carry my motorcycle. Works great.
Very easy ordering, communication, shipping! Pricing very reasonable! We will order again if needed! Thank you!
Just as expected. Makes your bumper stick out about a 14 inch further but you cant really tell without carefull inspection.
Well worth the money use it for my winch during the snow and it works amazing

Great price. Installed easily. Works gr eat!
Excellent company to deal with, item shipped fast, all is good
