Does Gooseneck Ball of Curt Hitch # C61332-52 Install Forward or Behind Rear Axle
Updated 11/28/2016 | Published 11/26/2016
Question:
Hi, I bought a 61332 Curt Over-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch and folding ball C-52 61052. I bought it for a long bed ford f350 super duty dually. I found center from side to side but according to video I need to position 2foot to 6 inches from axle. Is this from center of axle towards the cab? Or a dimension that I need to measure from back of truck box to center of installation? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The dimension would be from the axle center forward of the rear axle towards the cab. You would not want to move the ball behind the axle as that would unload the front suspension.
