Hello Lester, thanks for reaching out. The EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH79CR does fit the 2020 Ford Transit T350 Dually AWD with adaptive cruise control, but the hitch will interfere with the sensor.

Jesse, I just got off the phone with Tiffany at your office and was advised that this hitch will not work with the adaptive cruise control. Unfortunately, I have already had it installed on my 2021 Ford Transit 350. And it does interfere. Do you folks have a work around.....I can disable the Precollision and get normal cruise control, but not happy to have to do that. Thanks, Ray Craig

@RayC Dang sorry to hear that. Aside from potentially relocating the sensor, disabling it is the only thing I can think of. I will work on adding a note to our site that the hitch does interfere with the sensor. Sorry if I led you astray with incorrect info.

@JesseM Jesse, My local Ford mechanic would not touch the sensor.....liability issues. I have ordered an OEM service manual to see if I can define the location of the sensor and perhaps relocate it. Can you send me the instructions for the hitch installation I got with the unit? Tork lift kept the instructions and discarded them after they installed the hitch. I would like to be able to reference the sensor mods I remember from when I read thru them. This stuff just keeps me active and engaged. Ray

@RayC So there is not a PDF of the instructions I can send so I went out to our warehouse and opened up one of the hitches and took pictures of the instructions for you. It ended up being a few more pages than I thought, and it was packed in there really well, but the pages were pretty wrinkled. I will go ahead and send that over to your email. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.
