Recommend Front Mount Trailer Hitch and Spare Tire Carrier for 1997 Ford F-250 Diesel 2WD
Question:
Need a front tire carrier for my 1997 Ford F250. Does your company make one for this model truck ? It is a 2w drive diesel model.

Expert Reply:
For a front mount receiver for your 1997 Ford F-250 2WD Diesel, we have the Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch, part # 65014. This front receiver is designed to fit the 2-wheel drive diesel F-250.
We do offer a Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier from CURT. Checkout the Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier # C31006. This spare tire carrier will work with 2 inch receivers like the Draw-Tite # 65014.
To secure the spare tire carrier to the hitch you will need Pin and Clip, part # PC3. For a more secure option, I would recommend a locking hitch pin like the Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98880.
I have linked instructions for the Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch # 65014.
