Will Draw-Tite Front Hitch # 65061 Interfere with Skid Plate on 2011 F-150 with Off Road Package
Question:
I have a 2011 Ford F150 XLT Standard Cab, short bed, 5.0, 4x4 with off road package and tow package. Will this front hitch interfere with the factory skid plate?

Helpful Expert Reply:
I spoke with my contact at Draw-Tite and he said that installation of the Front Mount Hitch # 65061 will require modification or complete removal of the skid plates that are a part of the Off Road Package for your 2011 Ford F-150. Keep in mind that the hitch will essentially take the place of the factory skid plate and serve the same purpose (protecting the oil pan).
The need for modification or removal of the skid plate will be the same with the Curt # C31068 that is also available for your truck.
