I have read of people owning their new truck for a few months, and start having bad vibration issues, hence the reason for the damper.
Thanks to all
My truck had a tow package when I bought it, and it still has the dampener. I assume you are talking about the one behind the drivers rear wheel. It is not in the way of the stock hitch. Maybe you could buy a hitch from Ford. I did however have to remove one of the guards for the dampener to fit a rear slide out step I installed. But the dampener is still in tact.
