Today, on our 2015 Ford F-150 SuperCab, we'll be doing a test with a Hidden Hitch ball mount with a 4 and 3 quarter rise, or a 6-inch drop rated at 6,000 pounds. That's part number 80240. Now I've already got it installed in the drop position on the back of our F-150 just to give you a good idea what it's going to look like.

Now, we're going to measure from the ground to the top of the inside of the receiver. Now keep in mind, this could vary depending on tire size, accessories, or even after market hitches. more
