Recommended Class III Hitch for 2009 Ford E-450 Chassis Bus

Question:

Is there a Class III hitch that fits a 2009 Ford E-450 Bus? All of the hitches I see only fit an E-350

I have a solution for you, but there is not a Class III custom fit hitch available for a 2009 Ford E-450 Bus chassis and the 7" Weld on Bracket Kit # 4907 with the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Hitch # 41990 is a Class V hitch- so it's not exactly what you're seeking.

Instead, you can use the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703, which is a Class III hitch that will fit on box frame, I-frame or C-frames between 22" and 72" wide. This hitch can either be bolted or welded on, so it provides different installation methods depending on what you have available. The ends of this hitch can be trimmed to fit the specific application, so there is no excess cross tube outside the frame.
