Recommended Trailer Hitch for Ford E-450 RV with High Towing Capacity
Question:
Hi, I have a 2003 Ford E450 29foot RV. Currently the towing hitch is a 3500 lbs. I need one with at least 6000lbs minimum. I measured the distance of the current mounted hitch and it measures 37 inches across. I dont see anything on your site. What do you have available? thanks.

Expert Reply:
For your RV built on the 2003 Ford E-450 chassis, I recommend looking at the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13702. This is a universal, adjustable trailer hitch designed specifically for use on RVs. It can be bolted to the vehicle frame or welded on for a no-drill application. It will fit frame widths of 18 to 51 inches.
This Class III trailer hitch has a maximum gross trailer weight of 5,000 pounds but can be increased to 6,000 pounds when used with a weight distribution system. This is the highest capacity trailer hitch we have a available that is designed for RVs like yours.
I have attached the written installation instructions and a short video demonstration on this trailer hitch that you can also check out.
