The only option that provides 15,000 gross towing weight capacity is the Curt Class V Receiver Hitch - 1997 Ford F-250 and F-350 Heavy Duty part # C15511 which is designed for the 34" frame but is also a universal fit hitch so there is drilling into the frame required. All of the hitches available for this truck do require some drilling so this is your best option.
