Will Front Mount Hitch Fit 2011 Ford F-350 That Has Snow Plow Package And Oil Coolers Installed

Question:

Hi, I like the idea of the front hitch but I am concerned that the hitch may not clear my trans and oil coolers in the front, I have a 2011 F350 with the snow plow package. Are you familiar with this configuration? Thanks for your time,

I did some research on your 2011 Ford F-350. I was unable to find the snow plow package and what is included with it on your truck.

I have attached the installation instructions for the Draw-Tite Front Hitch, part # 65049 you can check out. You will want to check the mounting locations in the instructions for the trailer hitch to see if it will interfere with the snow plow package or oil and transmission coolers you have installed. I have also attached a link to an installation video for this hitch on a 2012 F-250. Although it is on a different truck, the installation will be similar on your F-350.

You do want to use caution when using the front hitch. You will want to make sure you do not block the headlights on your truck and that you do not block the oil and transmission coolers on the front of the truck.
