I looked on Curt's site and then called my tech contact to confirm. The Curt trailer hitch receiver # C15300 is a confirmed fit for all 1997 Ford F-350 models. I confirmed with the tech that the crew cab was a fit and he said the cab has nothing to do with this hitch fit on the frame, so you will be good to go.
