Front Mounted Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2017 Thor Outlaw On Ford E-450 Chassis
Question:
I have a 2017 Thor outlaw 29H class c motor home on a 2016 or 2017? Ford E450 chassis and this receiver says for 2015 and 2016 Thor outlaw and says will not fit 2016/1017. Do you have a model that will and did the chassis change after 2015?

The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65053 is confirmed to fit on the 2008-2017 Ford E-450 RV Cutaway chassis. So it will fit your 2017 Thor Outlaw 29H class C motorhome on either a 2016 or 2017 Ford E-450 chassis. The chassis changed for 2018.
I recommend installing the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSF-106-40 to improve your front suspension. These springs will replace the factory bump stop and provide up to 500lbs support for a more stable ride with the front suspension. We also have the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-106-40-1 for the rear if you do not already have something to handle all the additional weight on your chassis. You will need to ensure you have 7" between your frame and the tires for these to fit.
