Super sturdy, great fit. Knocked a star for a few things 1) there's no holes for tying up all the electrical wires that attach to the factory hitch meaning having to figure out stick-on solutions or tying up out of the way. Not major but annoying. 2) wish the hardware was similar to factory with the double retained nuts. The plates and bolts work but not as easy to install. 3) install isn't difficult, but it does take a lot longer than the instructions if you're removing a factory hitch. Between spare tire, all the fiddly push in wire holders and bolts that need penetrating oil and a strong impact wrench plan on at least 3 hrs if you're doing this with a floor jack on the ground.

@Jeff Love to hear it! Thanks for sharing!

Original hitch on my truck was pounding out the pin holes. That's just no good. Looked the hitch receiver over an determined that an aftermarket receiver was more appropriate to my needs.

Stout. Way stouter than the factory hitch receiver it replaced. All the bolt holes lined up. It fits as well as, if not better than, factory. We did have to use air tools to break the factory fasteners loose. We did have to remove the bumper to disconnect one wire connector. The original hitch receiver had hole punched to hook the wiring into, this did not. No issues using zip ties on the wiring harness(es). But, the quality of the fasteners supplied more than made up for a couple of holes.

Great service from etrailer, and a great product from Curt. Even the UPS guy was good. I'm getting so etrailer is my "go to" people for parts.

2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty

I purchased a 2019 Ford F350 Platinum SRW, to discover at a later date that the aftermarket hitch was rated 3,000 lbs than the truck's rating. After I stopped swearing, I ordered this Curt Commercial Duty hitch. It is clearly much sturdier than the original and I now feel confident while towing my toyhauler. Removing the original hitch required an impact air wrench, but was straight forward. Installation of the Curt hitch was straight forward as well, but required a pretty hefty torque wrench to get the proper torque. Overall the Installation was not difficult and I am very pleased with the hitch. Etrailer provided accurate information, a great price and quick delivery.



by:

The customer service is great. A local vendor delivered 3 wrong hitch receivers to me. I decided to take a chance on ordering online and was concerned that I would start down a rabbit hole all over again. Instead I was put at ease that etrailer had the solution. I placed the order and it arrived in Arizona quickly and fit perfectly.

Hitch fits well and I’m happy with the included hardware. The instructions left out a few minor details but nothing a reasonably intelligent person can’t figure out. This hitch is much better than the factory hitch.

STANDARD TRAILER HOOKS DO NOT FIT ON THE HITCH!!! Unbelievable. Hopefully someone with half a brain and basic experience designs the next one. Waste of money.

  • Best Trailer Hitch For Pulling 2025 Flying Cloud 25 With 2025 Ford F-250
    Hey Roger, thanks for reaching out. Your Ford F-250 is a 2025 model, correct? If so, what I recommend for a hitch is the Curt Class V Hitch # C15802. This hitch has a 20,000 lb capacity which will be more than enough for your 2025 Flying cloud 25 with a 7,300 lb GVWR. Also note this hitch has a 2-1/2" receiver. Weight capacity aside I like this hitch for a few reasons. It will be a fairy simple no-drill install, and could definitely be done DIY. Also, the Curt # C15802 is the most affordable...

  • Where do the Vertical Mounts on the Curt Hitch C15802? What is the Inside to Inside Measurement?
    Hello Ramon, The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V Commercial Duty - 2-1/2" # C15802 is a great fit for your 2021 Ford F-350 XLT Tremor. It matches up to the existing holes in your frame, so no drilling is required. The vertical mounts install on the outside of the passenger side frame rail and the driver side frame rail (please refer to attached image). We didn't have the dimension you were looking for so I took a stroll out to the warehouse, the inside to inside is...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2024 Ford F-250
    Yes, for your 2024 Ford F-250 we have the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15802. This is a class V 2 1/2" receiver that has a beefy 20,000 lb capacity, is assembled in the USA, and has an easy bolt-on install using the provided hardware.

  • Dimensions of Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver 2-1/2 Inch # 15802
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V Commercial Duty - 2-1/2" # C15802 has 3 different hole dimensions for mounting. The two holes closest to the receiver are 36.31 inches on center. The widest holes are 37 inches on center and the most forward holes are 36-1/5 inches on center.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Ball Mount For 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty Towing More Than 1 Trailer
    I recommend the Curt Class V Receiver Hitch part # C15802 for the 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty because because it offers more towing capacity than the B & W option and the installation is a bit easier since it is one solid piece that you bolt up to the frame. Since you are towing more than 1 trailer you will need an adjustable ball mount so you can adjust the rise or drop depending on which trailer you are towing. For that I recommend Flash E Series HD Adjustable 2-Ball Mount - 2-1/2" Hitch...

  • Recommended 2-1/2 Inch Hitch for a 2018 Ford F-250
    To add a hitch with a 2-1/2" receiver to your 2018 Ford F-250, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C15802. This hitch is custom fit and has a massive 20,000 lbs towing capacity and a 2,700 lbs maximum tongue weight. It can be used with a weight distribution system but that will not increase its capacity. For a compatible ball mount you will want the B&W Tow & Stow 3-Ball Mount item # BW54FR.

  • Will Curt Clevis Hook Attach to Curt Class V Hitch?
    The Curt 81960 clevis hooks you referenced have a 1" opening, and the safety chain loops of Curt hitch # C15802 are approximately 1-1/8" wide so you would be able to use them, but the hooks would not quite close. For Curt clevis hooks with a larger opening there is the # C81970 which has a 1-1/3" opening, as well as the # C81980, which has an opening of 1-1/4". I've added links to video reviews of these hooks for you to take a look at as well.

  • Is there a Ball Mount Larger than a Class V 2-1/2 Inch
    If your hitch receiver opening is larger than 2-1/2 inches then the next step up is a 3 inch if you are talking about physical size and not capacity. The 3 inch ball mount you need is # 40701 if this is the case. The hitch ball to fit is # C40085. This is not a common size though so I do recommend verifying the size of the receiver opening on the hitch. I have also included a link to our ball mount main page. If you mean capacity then the highest capacity 2-1/2 inch ball mount that we...

  • Replacement Hitch for 2024 Ford F-250
    Hey Greg, you could go with the Curt Class V hitch part # C15802 to replace your worn out hitch. Then for a 2-1/2 inch shank to use with your WD system you could us the Equal-i-zer Shank part # EQ90-02-4900.

  • Capacity of the Factory Trailer Hitch on a 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty

If you have the 6.7L V8 engine then I recommend using the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C15802. This option is a Class V hitch with a 2-1/2" receiver...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2017 Ford F-250 With High Tongue Weight Capacity
    Yes. For your 2017 Ford F-250 6.7L diesel, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V Commercial Duty - 2-1/2" # C15802 which is rated for tongue weights up to 2,700 lbs. This won't increase the tongue weight range of your truck determined by the manufacturer which is set for 10% of the towing capacity. The hitch is rated independently so the hitch receiver can handle up to that 2,700 lb capacity.

Like you were wanting, this is a Class V hitch with a 2-1/2" receiver.

There is actually an anti-sway weight distribution system that would work, the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # BXW2000, though this would require your 2017 Ford F-250 have a 2-1/2" hitch like the Curt # C15802, and you would also need to switch the brackets from the SwayPro's clamp on to the Blue Ox Signature Series...

    In your case, you will have to follow the tongue weight rating of your 2017 Ford F-250. The tongue weight rating on the Curt Trailer Hitch receiver, # C15802, is the weight that this particular hitch will fail and does not represent the total towing capacity of your truck. The max tongue weight that you will be allowed to tow will be the max of 1500 that is rated for your vehicle. Even if the hitch has a tongue weight rated up to 2500 lbs your vehicle cannot handle that much tongue weight....

    The towing capacity for a pickup like your 2017 Ford F-250 Diesel 4X4 depends on all of the factory equipment installed, including engine, cab style, transmission and rear differential. You are correct that a hitch may be rated for more or less towing capacity than the truck itself; the lower-rated item always determines overall capacity for the combined system. The three best places to confirm any vehicle's towing capacity are the owner's manual, the dealership who can look up the VIN...

This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the rear bumper, near your spare tire on the driver's side. Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.

We really like the Equal-i-zer systems because of how well they work and how long they've been around. This is the most copied system out there because it's basically...

This would easily fit in the Curt hitch part # C15802. From the hitch pin hole out to the center of the ball mount measures 9-1/4 inches and the max rise would be 11 inches.

  • Tongue Weight of 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty with Curt Trailer Hitch
    You're correct that adding a trailer hitch, like the Curt you referenced # C15802, that is rated higher than your truck will not increase your truck's capabilities. Trailer hitches are often overrated for the vehicles they're designed for. It's mainly so the hitch will still be enough for the same model of vehicle with different options that do increase its capacity.
