Question:
Hi. Would you provide the model numbers for the Curt and the Drawtite front hitch receivers for my Ford 2016 Fet0 DRW 4x4 Lariat? Is there any significant difference between the Curt and Drawtite? Thx. bg

Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite And Curt front hitch options for your 2016 Ford F-350 are as follows:
The Curt Item # C31018 has a 500 tongue weight and a 9000lb straight line pull. It is a steel construction with a gloss black powder coat finish. It comes with all the hardware to mount the hitch to the vehicle. I have provided a link to a video on a 2014 F-350. The instillation should be exactly the same if not very similar.
The Draw-Tite Item # 65049 comes with all the hardware to mount it, has a semi-gloss powder coat finish, and matches all the weight capacities of the Curt front mount hitch. I also have provided a link to an instillation video for the Draw-Tite on a 2013. The instillation should be exactly the same if not very similar.
In my professional opinion I tend to lean more toward the Draw-Tite hitches myself.
