Trailer Hitch for 2009 Ford E350 Box Truck
Updated 04/20/2018 | Published 04/19/2018 >
Question:
Hello, I have two questions: 1 Would hitch #5350 fit on my 2009 Ford E350 box truck? 2 How easy are the instructions to follow? As this would be the first trailer hitch that I have installed ever, would the instructions be basic enough for me to correctly install it to the frame of my box truck? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
Box trucks typically have a rear section that hangs below the truck frame quite a bit which makes installing a hitch a bit difficult.
I spoke to my contacts at Curt and Reese and the only styles of hitches that can be made to fit a box-truck body like yours are multi-fit RV hitches like the # 41990 that has a 16k capacity. This is a weld on hitch that would require either the 7 inch drop brackets part # 4907 or the 16 inch brackets part # 4916.
