Hitch Recommendation for a 1992 Ford F250 With a 10 inch Bumper

Updated 08/15/2012 | Published 08/12/2012

Question:

I have a 1992 Ford F250 with a 10 inch bumper and the spare tire is mounted directly behind the rear bumper. I would like to know if part #41504 will fit under the bumper and if I am still going to be able to locate my spare tire underneath the truck. Thank you in advance for your help.

There are hitches available for your 1992 Ford F250.

I would recommend you get a Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch # 87471 if you do not have a deep drop bumper. This hitch will fit all model 1992 F250s and your 16 inch spare will fit with the hitch, but the spare tire cradle might require some adjustment for it to fit properly.

To determine if you have a deep drop bumper check out the FAQ article I attached on types of bumpers.

If you do have one you might be interested in purchasing a Draw-Tite Hitch # 41504. Check out the installation instructions I attached for this hitch also. To fit a 16 inch spare you will also need to modify the tire cradle.
