Question:
Looking for a trailer hitch that will fit my 1956 Ford F100. The outside width of the frame rails is 34”. So something that will bolt up to that will probably work. Thanks, Donn

Expert Reply:
We don't have any custom fit hitches for a 1956 Ford truck but I do have a universal hitch that will bolt to your truck's frame. It is the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch item # 41990-07. This 2" hitch can be welded or bolted onto your 34" wide frame.
I have linked the installation instructions below so you can see how to get it set up. You will want to skip ahead to the diagram 2 step to see how to get it installed with bolts.
