Which Front Hitch Fits 2018 Ford F-150
Question:
I need a front receiver hitch for a 2018 Ford F-150 4x4. I know the major suppliers Draw-tite, Reese, Curt etc. make them. Can you tell me which one of them has the highest ground clearance? I dont mind cutting a hole in the plastic air dam on my truck, but I need the hitch to be as high off the ground as possible. thanks.

Expert Reply:
The Curt front hitch part # C31083 and the Draw Tite # 65067 that fit your 2018 Ford F-150 both provide about the same ground clearance but the Draw Tite does sit maybe 1/2 inch higher so it would be what I would recommend if max ground clearance was what you were after.
I attached a picture of this installed and you can see that it basically does not reduce ground clearance as it will sit right at the same height as the air dam.
