Questions & Answers

Could this be installed on a 2017 Ford F-350?

It's probably true. Using this model of hitch, we have put one on a 2015 F250 and one on our current

Do you think it would fit on a 2002 Ford F250?

You can use it, yes

In the description, it is mentioned that the weight is 20 pounds, while the B&W is 92 pounds. What do you think? Is there a problem with the print or is light T?

I'm not sure that this is true. There is a lot of parts to put together, but the area with the ball connector is probably about 30 lbs all by

5/5

*Cons
When two boxes showed up, one was so damaged that parts of the cardboard stayed in the UPS truck and we had to locate the parts For my F250, that was the right rail kit. Second, a rail kit for a Dodge was in the box. When I contacted the seller according to Amazon protocol, it took almost a day for them to respond (generally, you have to wait 2 days for their response). It was a damaged little box in a big undamaged box when the correct half of the order arrived, giving me the impression this company usually sends out their products in damaged packaging. There is no magnetic cover to cover the ball when in storage. Curt's kit comes with one that appears to be more robust. It is not a deal breaker. I will make my own cover, which will save me money. There are not many differences in the directions between two kits, but you may find that some relate to each other. A direction was not included in either kit for installing the horizontal carriage bolts in 5/8 grade 8 connecting the rails and heads. In addition, there is no indication of where the pull handle should be mounted. Despite being very easy and self explanatory, it should be brought to your attention. On the drawing, you see them, but you cannot tell which way they are facing. mainly bolts, not included in the parts list and so had to be ordered separately. Parts that are not needed. Due to this, I gave the installer a 3 out of 5 stars (the product still received 5 stars). It is not the maker's or kit's fault, but if your bed is wavy as a result of being crushed in by a heavy load, installation will require removing the bed from the frame with a jack and raising the bed so it Tighten the bed bolts while squeezing the bed down, and the bed will pop out again, making that section look like it did before the parts were installed. I found this to be one of the most difficult parts of the installation. Having a work truck in the household does not make me the only one who uses it, so I thought you should be warned. I am pleased with the customer service and the replies from the company after receiving the first reply from them. In replying to my questions and responses the following day, they responded immediately back and forth. After I placed the order, they recommended I rush order the ball hitch kit half of the order. International shipping could take up to 8 days, they said. I was able to finish it in one or two A prepaid return label was also provided to me so I could return the Dodge rail kit whenever I felt like it. In my opinion, I do recommend this product. You just need to refer to instructions and diagrams. Diagrams are always best. I don't know if you can see but in the photo you can see the horizontal support for the bed.

Allow yourself plenty of time to complete the installation
4/5

My only complaint was that the instructions left out some crucial points. The gooseball is awesome, and I got everything done. I just wanted to let you know. We had two different shipping dates for ours, so it took two days for us to receive it.

quality and terrible customer service
3/5

Product was fine until torque time. The side brackets started to twist inward after the torque was applied and they weren't even torqued to the specified torque. Replacing the plates was difficult, and after the first reply from customer service, they do not respond to my emails for support any more. Pay the extra and buy the Black and Decker set.

The deal is very good
5/5

The app works great and is very easy to use It was easy to install, and the directions made it easy for me to drill a hole in my bed in the right place. There was one thing I was most concerned about.

It is unlikely that all of the parts will be provided
3/5

A 2003 Ford F350 is covered by this order. It was supposed to be a good fit from the information, but it wasn't. There were some modifications to be made, and if you have an air bag you will need to drill new holes to mount it. I also received the item a week late, and in two different boxes. The box containing the mounting bars did not contain any of the hardware, so it took me a trip to Home Depot to purchase $45 The product itself is well-made, however the company itself is terrible. We're giving it 3 stars for that reason.

Make sure you measure twice and Although it stated that it was a fit for my truck, it did not work for me
3/5

I had to return the product. I am not happy with how much time it takes. My opinion is that the hardware for a trailer hitch is cheap. The holes on the bolt ups did not match and the hardware didn't match firmly enough.

It's the second time in a row today that I've received a broken item or an So I can err on the side of caution and contact Amazon, I am seeking an email address
3/5

I have ordered two items today, both of which were broken or the boxes were abused so the item was opened. If you could reach out to me, that would be great.
