Does 2019 Ford F-250 Short Bed Require Slider Hitch to Make Tight Turns
Question:
I have a Ford F 250 6.75 foot bed, Do I need a special hitch for sharp turns or will the stationary one work?

Expert Reply:
For short bed trucks like your 2019 Ford F-250 with the OEM rail kit typically a slider hitch is needed to make sharp turns like the # C16520-16020 unless the trailer has a tapered nose designed for short bed turning clearance which is common on newer trailers.
For a fixed version of this we have the # C16520-16017.
