Does EcoHitch 306-X7904 Fit Diesel Ford Trucks

Question:
I'm a little confused on the advice above and the disclaimer tech tip. " Tech Tip: Product not intended for models with auxilliary cooler." I thought this auxiliary cooler was the only difference between the gas and the diesel 2017 engines... is there a cooler relocate kit now part of this? Thanks Joe

Hey Joseph, this is a great question but yes the EcoHitch front hitch part # 306-X7904 does fit the diesel model and yes the diesel models are the ones that have the front cooler which is actually the intercooler. The tech tip you found is incorrect and leftover from when we thought it didn't fit diesel models. The picture I attached is from a customer who has a diesel model that was able to install the hitch.

Hey Joe, did the EcoHitch front hitch work out for your diesel model? I'm curious to know because it could help others who are in a similar situation.
