Do Bedliners Need to be Removed to Install a Gooseneck Hitch

Updated 06/23/2020 | Published 10/01/2012

Question:

Can I install and use the Curt, # C60720 goose neck hitch with a bed liner installed or will I have to cut a portion out or take it out completely?

You will have to cut out a portion of the bed liner of your 2001 Ford F-250 in order to install the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Gooseneck Hitch with Installation Kit # C60720. This hitch is confirmed to fit your 2001 Ford Super Duty.

If you are careful with how you cut the bedliner you can use the portion you remove as a plug to cover up the removed section when the ball is down.

Check out the installation instructions for this product that I attached also.

Will this model fit my 2003 f-350 with a plastic bed liner?

Yes, the Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch # C60720 is a confirmed fit for your 2003 Ford F-350. As mentioned above, you'll just need to trim the bed liner around where the ball sits.
