I went out to the warehouse to take some measurements for you and made a diagram for you to check out with those measurements of the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31078 for your 2017 Ford F-450.

From outside to outside at the widest point the hitch measures 39-9/16" and from outside to outside of its brackets measures 29-15/16". It is also approximately 12-1/2" deep overall and the receiver juts out approximately 7" from the bar.

Of the two hitches that fit your 2020 Ford F-250 the Curt hitch part #C31078 sticks out less than the Draw Tite part #65078. I attached two pictures to show you the difference. The Curt is the first picture and the Draw Tite is the second.

Yes, it will so long as your 2023 Ford F-350 doesn't have dual rear wheels. It won't work with the dually models since there is a larger front mounted auxiliary cooler that interferes with installation. The EcoHitch Hidden Front Hitch item…

Answer 9

Yes, the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, #C31078, is confirmed to fit the 2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty. Please note that because you have the Tremor package the air dam is very short in height compared to the other F-250 trim levels. So, you…
