Inner Dimensions For Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT45502 On a 1997 Ford F-250
Question:
I have a1997 F250 HD and have installed a 38 gallon bronco tank in the rear. This forced me to relocate the spare tire to the bed. I would like to upgrade the factory tow hitch to the DT45502 but am not sure of the inner dimensions and therefore not sure if it will fit with the deeper fuel tank. Can you please provide the inner measurements of the hitch?
