Question:

Will this particular shackle mount be a good fit for: 2018 Ford F-250 XLT with a 2-1/2inch hitch receiver opening? WITH the pin holes of the receiver matching the pin holes of the hitch so the D-Ring shackle is in an up and down position and not a side to side position?

Yes, the Curt Tow Strap Loop for 2-1/2" Hitches # C45831 will fit the 2-1/2 inch hitch on your 2018 Ford F-250 with the shackle facing up.

From the end of the mount to the center of the hitch pin hole with the D-ring shackle facing up is 6 inches, and is 7 inches if you ever decide to mount it side-to-side.

The Tow Strap Loop for 2-1/2" Hitches # C45831 will require a pin and clip such as part # PC3 and you can use a strap such as # EM59800 with it.

I have added links to video reviews of both the mount and strap for you to check out as well.
