Hey Mark, I have a front hitch that will fit, however the EcoHitch item # EH54QR will not. It only fits the 2023 - 2027 Ford F-550 Cab and Chassis'.

I just checked with EcoHitch and for a 2022 Ford F-550 Cab and Chassis you'll need their Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver item # EH83GR.

What do you plan on using your front hitch for?

Thanks Jerred. I will use it to carry either a bicycle carrier, or a carry rack for things like extra water or firewood when I host campouts.

@Mark You're welcome! The item # EH83GR has a 1,000 lbs vertical load limit (tongue weight for the front) so you'll be able to haul plenty of firewood. I do recommend checking to see if your bike rack is rated for a front hitch. There are few that actually are. If you need a recommendation on one just let me know what bike/s you have.

@JerredH Thanks for checking. My bike carrier will accommodate two 80 pound electric bikes and is rated for front, rear, rear of trailer, or rear of towed vehicle. Yes, there aren't that many out there that will do this.

Hello Jeff, Sounds like you’ve got a big camper (about 4,000 lbs) on your 2024 F-350 dually, and when it’s loaded, the truck feels bouncy and sways a bit. That’s pretty common with heavy campers, especially if the suspension is still stock.…

Yes, they will! The TorkLift StableLoad item #TL89CR that fits your F-350 is compatible with Timbren systems. The Timbren's mount over your axle just inside the leaf springs. For your 2020 Ford F-350 dually, I recommend the Timbren Suspension…

The EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver #EH83GR will fit your 2022 Ford F-450. I feel the Cargo Carrier #C18113 is going to be the best carrier option that won't restrict airflow to your radiators. The carrier has 3-3/4" tall…

I do have an option for you but the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part #306-X7904 is not a confirmed fit for a 2022 Ford F-350 Dually. The dually models have an auxiliary cooler mounted in the way which does not allow this hitch…

Answer 7

A grille guard on your 2020 Ford F-450 is not compatible with the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver #EH83GR. That's going to be true of any front-mounted hitch, however, as the way each installs will interfere.

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
