I have an 87 F150 XLT Lariat 2wd. I have been trying to find a tow hitch kit for it so that I don't have to use my ball on the bumper. The last time I had to tow a large load on the bumper was with my 74 Cheverolet Cheyenne Super, it was about 3 pallets of cinder blocks that as soon as I got home bent my bumper to an unusable form.

Now I'm looking for a tow hitch that I can actually mount to the frame for better support on my F150, so where did you guy get your hitches from?

 

U-Haul. That is where I got the one hitch that was not on a vehicle when I purchased it. Also, just about any place that sells trailers.

 

The dealership. They matched the price of a similar hitch from a local shop in town, which happens to be Etrailer.com. Took 20 mins to install it myself.

 

I had good service from a couple of U-haul hitches in the past.

More importantly, a new hitch on an 23 year old truck?
Let the U-haul worry about the holes not lining up, that install would be worth every penny.

 

awesome, I think I'll go and check out u-haul then and see what I can come up with.
