Based on the size of your frame, it sounds as though your 1995 Ford F350 is the Cab and Chassis style. Curt offers a Class IV Receiver Hitch, # C14082, that with bolt directly to your vehicle's frame with no welding required. This hitch has a 1000 pound tongue weight capacity and 10000 pound towing capacity.

We do not offer a custom Class V hitch for your truck but universal Class V hitch receivers are available. Curt offers the Universal Weld-On Receiver, # 15901, with 3 inch drop and the # 15902 with 10.865 inch drop. The side brackets must be welded onto the hitch and onto the vehicle's frame. Both hitch receivers will fit frames up to 43 inches wide.

The hitch receivers that I have mentioned have not been tested on a 1995 Ford F350 with a dump bed so you will want to take a look at the installation instructions and your truck to make sure that there won't be any interference with the mounting location or the operation of the dump bed once the hitch is installed.

If your truck isn't equipped with a 4 way trailer connector, Tow Ready offers the Custom Fit T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, # 118316, for your Ford F350. The T-One connector plugs directly into the existing wiring with no cutting or splicing required.

To complete the towing package, we offer Ball Mount Kit # EBMK2416 which comes with a handy carrying bag to keep everything together. This kit includes ball mount with 3" rise or 4" drop, 2 inch hitch ball, 2-5/16 inch hitch ball, pin and clip, and etrailer.com ball mount bag.
