Trailer Hitch Needed for a 1997 Ford F-350 Heavy Duty with a Deep Drop Bumper
Published 06/08/2018
Question:
I need a hitch for my 1997 f350 with a deep cowboy bumper. I also need to tow with my camper in the bed of the truck. Is there a solution that won’t cost me a lot? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The Curt 3-Piece Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15511 that you referenced is a great option for the deep drop bumper on your 1997 Ford F-350 Heavy Duty. The Draw-Tite # 41504 is a little more cost-effective but it also requires the use of the adapter kit # 01685 and it doesn't have as high of a weight rating.
We do have a selection of camper tie-downs that you can install on your F-350. If you let me know what the size of your truck bed is and if you have a board or step I can make a recommendation for you from the linked list of tie-downs.
