Two holes to drill, bolted right up. I did not open package for about six months after receipt. I was short two pieces of hardware. Contacted B&W, parts were in the mail that day. This is the second hitch I have ordered. No problems with either one!!



by:

Absolutely love the install process and the look of this hitch. I installed it on my 1989 V30 Crew Cab. Took all of 10 minutes.
My only complaint is how it arrived to my doorstep. Not sure if it’s how these things are shipped or if Shipping dropped the ball but it seems like an easy way to lose parts if you ask me. Only stating this in hopes Etrailer can make a note of it happening.



by:

Hitch worked out great for my project, 1966 ford f250 body on a 1976 ford f250 4x4 highboy frame/chassis. Drilled all new holes to mount to frame. I had concerns because I had to shorten the frame 2 inches to accommodate the 66 long bed and factor original bumper. Thank you for the photos and dimensions of drop for the receiver tube. Hitch looks great and doesn’t hang to low.



by:
1997 Ford F-250 and F-350 Heavy Duty

Had to trim the mounting ears about 3/16” of an inch on either side to clear bumper mounts. Seems very sturdy and well made. Looks good and doesn’t hang down too low on a 97 f250 with standard rear bumper.

I am very impressed with this product. The construction on the class 5 hitch is something to brag about! Very well constructed and made. The welds and craftsmanship looks great. The only mods I had to do, the center holes on the frame were off about a 1/4 inch, it’s was no problem to drill out with the right tools. It is well worth the time to install, took me about and hour. This is why I’m always proud to buy products made in the USA [Thumbs up] The quality of the B&W hitch is unmatched. The process and shipment was fast as well.

Excellent heavy duty hitch. Fit perfect and was easy to install. Fast service.

I’ve hauled lots of hay with mine no issues. Towed the cattle trailer a few times and it worked great. Highly recommend this hitch



by:
2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Excellent quality American made hitch, installation went very smoothly onto my 1973 F250 truck. I particularly liked the modular bolt together design of the hitch this made the installation go easier (since it was lighter and less awkward).

I installed inside, then put the back piece into the mounted side and then installed the second side.

The photos are not the best, but hitch tucks up nice and tight to the bumper. Since the capacity is 16,000 lbs, it will definitely handle the new 28' enclosed trailer with ease (close to 10,000 lbs loaded).



by:
1984 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

I ordered this hitch for my 84 Chevy D30 military truck. After a few modifications to the existing mounting brackets for the tow hooks and the rear bumper I installed the new hitch assembley. Make sure you loose install all bolts first before tightening. Tighten new hitch assembly last. One of the most difficult parts is getting the Pindel hitch bolts lined up. I would suggest a good tapered line up bar.



by:
1986 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

Great hitch, I didn’t even have to drill one hole in the frame on my 1988 GMC v3500, it bolted right in. The receiver tucked under the bumper very good
The only thing I didn’t like was the trailer wiring plug bracket because it didn’t accommodate the new style 7-way and 4-way plug that come on the new Chevy trucks



by:
1968 Ford F-100

Very good quality American made item. It fit my 1968 Ford F-100 perfect. It sits right below my new Fey step bumper and I can't even see it except for the square receiver hole.

Used it 4 times last year to pull my 25 foot Airstream using an equalizer hitch. Still works great!



by:

Fit good on my 88 f250 install was pretty easy. Was worried about it sticking out to far where my truck has a roll pan on it but actually fits pretty good with the roll pan



by:

Awesome product! Just had to drill the center holes on both sides through the frame and it bolted right in. The tracking is by far the best of any online purchase I’ve ever made. Great job guys keep it up



by:

Awesome, delivered on scheduled and installed the same day with ease! High quality materials and easy to follow instructions. The license plate cut out was from the old hitch. The B&W trailer hitch was perfect fit no cutting necessary.



by:
1976 GMC C/K Series Pickup

Fit good as advertised



by:

It is a great reciver hitch. Bolted right up to my 1985 chevy k30. I tow all the time so a good strong hitch is important.



by:

Instructions sucked, but I figured it out. Works perfectly, thanks



by:

I couldn't find what i was looking for anywhere else and e trailer had exactly what i wwanted. I am extremely please with the customer service I received and the product. I will be using etrailer first from now on thank you etrailer.

Hitch fit perfectly on my 1989 Dodge W150! Took less than an hour to install, only had to drill 2 holes to fasten it to the frame.



by:
1995 Ford F-350 Super Duty

worked perfect on a 95 f350 with a stock hight bumper.



by:

Very sturdy and looks great. I installed it myself laying on cardboard over my gravel driveway. It ws very tight with the drilling and all but if I, a 62 year old geezer can do it, so can you!



by:

Perfect fit on my chevy 3500 cab and chassis pickup. was missing a few washers but found some to finish install... fast shipping ordered on 3/16 received it 3/22



by:

I’m 100% satisfied. Dianna A knew exactly what I needed and what I was talking about when I was explaining my needs. The B&W hitch receiver is awesome.



by:
1985 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

I just got this hitch today in the mail, it's awesome! Extremely well built and sturdy and the etrailer box kept it safe no dings or dents even. On a regular Chevy truck it will fit perfectly and installation is very straightforward but I would recommend having a friend help hold it while you get two bolts started. I installed it on a 85 Chevy k30 m1008 military truck. On these trucks people have problems with the shackle mounts fitting with a hitch and this one is no different. Some modifications will be needed to the shackle mounts, or the shackle mounts can be removed.

1 year later and this hitch is everything I said it was in the first review. The powder coating is still in great shape although this truck does not see Ohios lovely salted winter roads.



by:
1988 Ford F-250 Super Duty

This is a really nice, really heavy duty hitch. It also works with other brands of vehicles so if one wanted to could take it off before selling and reuse. (My truck is a 1988 F250) Installation was very straight forward, basically get a helper, hold hitch up to frame, mark bolt holes with pen or starter punch, and then drill consecutively larger holes till you get to 1/2 inch. Bolt up, torque, and you are off to the races. I did not remove the spare tire but wish I had. It made holding the top of the bolts very difficult. Save time and remove the spare tire as your first step.!

This hitch part # BWHDRH25122 is a custom fit for the 1988 F250. It it still a good idea to use the fit guide and make sure it will fit the next truck. It is not a custom fit for every vehicle.

  • Front Hitch for 1986 Ford F-350
    The B&W Heavy-Duty Trailer Hitch # BWHDRH25122 that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 1986 Ford F-350 Dually, but it's designed to install onto the frame rails at the rear. This will not fit the front of your truck. There is not a custom-fit front hitch available for this particular model F-350. The only option we have available that might work is an adjustable universal model like the Curt # C13702, which will fit frame widths of 18 to 51 inches. This can either be bolted on with...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 1970 Ford F-100 Styleside with Standard Bumper
    Modification and/or relocation of the spare tire mounting bracket is going to be a possibility for any of the trailer hitches for your 1970 Ford F-100 styleside with standard bumper. The spare would have to be positioned further forward on the vehicle if it has to be moved at all. The only way to know for sure is to begin the installation process. There are no specific instructions if the spare does have to move. The most popular hitch option for your truck is # BWHDRH25122. I have included...

  • Are Trailer Hitches Certified and Documented for Weight Capacity
    Trailer hitches and vehicles often have different ratings. The trailer hitch, # BWHDRH25122, itself is rated for 16,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 1,600 pounds tongue weight. But if the truck is rated lower, which it likely is, then you have to go by the lower rating. The truck owners manual should state what its towing capacity is. The trailer hitch meets the specifications for trailer hitches required by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and the US department of transportation....

  • Trailer Hitch for a 1998 Fleetwood Pace Arrow to Tow a 6,000 Pound Trailer
    You are going to need to have a hitch welded to the frame of your 1998 Fleetwood Pace Arrow motor home by a qualified professional welder. The bolt-on hitches we have for RVs are not rated high enough for a gross trailer weight of 6,000 pounds. I have included a link to the right to the weld-on truck hitches that we carry. You will also need to check the owners manual for the RV to make sure it is rated high enough for 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight.

    I went to the warehouse and measured the mounting holes on the flange of the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 41904. The distance from the first hole to the middle hole center to center is 4-5/8 inches and the distance between the middle and last hole center to center is 9-inches.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 1984 Chevy K20 Pickup To Fit Without a Rear Bumper
    I recommend the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-07 for your 1984 Chevrolet K20 as this is a universal receiver you will be able to bolt/weld on your truck where you prefer it on the frame. You are able to cut the 44" wide cross tube to best fit where you want on the frame. All our custom fit receivers like the B&W # BWHDRH25122 are designed to fit with a factory bumper and will stick out past the truck.

This ball mount will use the larger 3/4" hitch pin # 58388 that you mentioned you have, however this ball mount is designed to fit into 3" x 3" trailer hitch receivers. If your receiver opening is smaller, you can use the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves # C45408. This reducer sleeve will allow you to adapt the ball mount to your 2-1/2" or 2" receiver opening.

    B&W hitch # BWHDRH25122 is designed to fit many trucks including the 1967 Ford F-350 as long as it has (or had) a stock factory bumper. Most of the trucks of that era had a 34 inch frame width which this hitch will fit. But to answer your question the distance between the side plates is 33-3/8 inches and the hole center to hole center distance is 36 inches. I measured them myself. If your frame width is the more uncommon 37-1/2 inch width then I recommend Curt hitch # C15511 which is...

  • Higher Capacity Trailer Hitches for 1987 Chevy C/K Dually Towing Car Hauler
    For your 1987 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup the B and W hitch part # BWHDRH25198 that you referenced would work really great if you had a deep drop bumper but if instead you had a standard bumper you'd want the standard version of this hitch # BWHDRH25122. Both of these have more capacity than your truck has so they'd easily handle anything you'd throw at them.

  • Is Bolt Pattern between B and W Hitches BWHDRH25122 and BWHDRH25198 the Same
    Since the only difference between the B and W Hitches # BWHDRH25122 and # BWHDRH25198 is the style of bumper they fit with the bolt pattern is the exact same. Only difference is the height difference relative to the hitch opening and where it mounts to truck frame.

The highest rated hitch we have available for your Chevy K10 with the short bed and factory step bumper is the Curt Class IV # C14082.

    Yes, the B&W Class V Trailer Hitch, # BWHDRH25198, will install on a 1977 Ford F-350, but it was designed for models with a 10 inch deep drop step bumper. The receiver sits lower to allow room for the deep drop bumper. If you have the factory bumper, then you will want part # BWHDRH25122. You will also want to note that the spare tire will have to be lowered to complete the installation. It can be reinstalled, but it will likely have to be re-positioned slightly forward of the hitch....

    The B and W Hitch part # BWHDRH25122 would fit your 1995 Chevy Silverado 3500 if it was built on a cab and chassis model. Which easy way to determine this is to measure the truck frame from outside to outside. If this measurement is 34 inches then you do have a cab and chassis model and this hitch fits. If you don't have a cab and chassis model B and W has the hitch part # BWHDRH25124 that's a fit instead.

This is also a class V hitch like # C15800, and is rated for 15,000 maximum GTW and a maximum of 1,500 tongue weight.

The Draw-Tite hitch will fit both 6 and 8 foot beds with the standard or step bumper. The hitch is a Class III hitch with a 2 inch receiver opening. The hitch has a Gross Towing Weight of 5,000 lbs and a Tongue Weight rating of 500 lbs.

    The hole spacing for the hitches we carry is not available unless we were to measure them ourselves or request the information from the manufacturers. Sometimes they give it to us if we ask, sometimes they do not. And we carry a lot of trailer hitches. You cannot take a custom fit trailer hitch and install it on a vehicle it was not intended for. You would have to modify the hitch which will not only void the warranty but also can weaken the hitch and make the capacity unknown. The only...
