Will Curt Hitch Fit 2023 Ford F-150 With FX4 Package

Question

Question:

Will this work with the FX4 skid plates on a 2023 F150? I don’t see it mentioned for the Curt but the Draw-Tite says it doesn’t work with skid plates. Also, can the auto lowering air dam be trimmed like the Draw-Tite or does it actually need to be removed?

You can fit the # C31083 on your 2023 Ford F-150 with the FX4 package but you will need to make modifications. The skid plate can be reinstalled but it will have to be trimmed to get it to fit. Technically the auto air damn can also be modified to make this fit just like the Draw-Tite. We don't have instructions for these modifications so it will be up to you to make it work.

Answer 1

There are few differences between the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver #65067 and Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver #C31083 that fit your 2020 Ford F-150, with the main difference being ground clearance. The Curt hitch does have…

I do have an option for you but the only confirmed front mount trailer hitch we currently have for a 2023 Ford F-150 is the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part #65067 which is what I recommend. This hitch offers a bolt-on fit and…

Answer 4

The Curt Front Hitch #C31083 for your 2020 Ford F-150 actually won't affect the truck's ground clearance at all. This is because the hitch is designed so that the 2" receiver protrudes through the middle of the lower air dam, instead of…

The best hitch mounted bike rack for your 4 bikes is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 4 Fat Bikes #HR1400Z-FB because it holds up to 50 lb bikes (you should be able to remove the battery on your e-bike to decrease the weight) with up…

The 35lb weight calculation for the Swagman Patrol 2 Bike Rack #S64701 is based on the weight of the bike connected to the rack. So this will be the weight of the bike minus the front wheels. It is not going to work for your two 70lb E-bikes. Instead…

Answer 8

I would be happy to! To add a front hitch to your 2023 Ford F-150, I recommend the Curt item #C31083. This front mount hitch is custom fit and will work with your F-150 but does require removal of the auto deploying air dam if you have it. The Curt…

Answer 9

The good news is that neither the Curt #C31083 or the Draw-Tite #65067 front mount trailer hitches will reduce the ground clearance on your 2018 Ford F-150. If you want a receiver that sits above the lowest piece of fascia then the Curt requires that…

Answer 10

If you are concerned at all about truck frame stress from a front hitch install I would recommend you go with a plow setup that does not use a front hitch and instead uses a set of frame brackets. For that the SnowBear Mount Kit part #SB397-132 would…

We do have a picture of the Curt front hitch part #C31083 installed on a similar vehicle as your 2018 Ford Expedition but we don't have one on an actual Expedition at this time. The picture I attached shows it installed on a Ford truck that…

Answer 12

The front mount trailer hitch receiver with the best ground clearance once installed on your 2021 Ford F-150 is the Draw-Tite #65067 in which the bottom of the receiver sits just above the bottom of your air dam so you will not lose any ground…
