Best 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty Drop Hitches

I purchased a lifted 2020 Jeep Gladiator equipped with aftermarket JCR bumpers. The challenge was towing my boats. The Patriot hitch with solid steel shaft provided the basis for a solution. The JCR bumper has a hidden hitch receiver up against the spare tire in such a way to preclude the use of the standard hitch pin hole. To solve the problem of the receiver hidden behind the license plate I mounted the upper portion of the hitch upside down. M&G Trailer of MN solved the pin hole problem by drilling a 2nd pin hole in the solid steel shaft. This pin hole is inside the bumper just behind the spare. I installed the lower portion of the hitch to provide the maximum drop needed to align with the boat trailer. The result has proven effective with no distortion in the bumper or the hitch.

Exactly what I needed, truck was to high. Great heavy duty hitch.

The drop hitch made it possible to adjust the ball height for different equipment towed from flat towing a jeep with 35” tires and 4” lift to a RZR trailer. The drop hitch is heavy duty with tightening screws to eliminate shutter/flex of the connecting parts of the drop hitch for increase stability and safety while towing. Adjustment is easy with the numerous pin positions enabling lowering or raising the ball height.

I needed to lower my e-bike rack mounted to a receiver on the front of the truck for better visibility. After searching the big box stores and finding nothing that would drop it about a foot I searched online and found eTrailer and its selection of Patriot adjustable hitches = perfect! The hitch arrived in a few days = impressive! Since it is winter here in Billings I will not mount the drop hitch until spring but am positive that it will do the job to my complete satisfaction. Great product, great service and THANK YOU!
