Trailer Hitch for 2020 Ford F150
Updated 12/22/2025 | Published 10/29/2024
Question:
Im interested in hitch 76136 for my 2020 F150 but I dont have the fish tape needed to pull the carriage bolts through the frame. Do you sell the fish tape or could you tell me the thread size on the bolts so I could buy the tape elsewhere?

Hello Chris.
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 76136 is going to be a great fit for your 2020 Ford F150, this hitch can handle a maximum tongue weight of 900 lbs (1,000 when using a weight distribution system), and a maximum gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs (10,000 when using a weight distribution system). Great thing about this is hitch is that it also already comes with the fish wire to be able to pull the bolts through for install. If you want to have a couple extra on hand, the carriage bolts are 5/8-11 x 2.00 Gr5 so the Curt Fish Wire Bolt Leader - 5/8" # C58430 would work perfect. I have also attached the instructions and an install video on a 2020 Ford F150 to help with the install.

Hey Chris, how did things go with the Draw-Tite hitch on your F150 once you had the fish wire sorted out? Your update could make it easier for others working on the same install.
