Trailer hitch

Post by Fo-Mo-Co »

Not sure where else to put this so I figure I would ask here. I would like to pull my bass boat with my f100 this summer. I have a sport bumper so I will need some kind of aftermarket hitch. Thing is I don't want one that hangs down and looks ugly. Does anyone know of some type of hidden receiver style hitch.

I had a receiver welded to the bottom of my bumper. When not in use, you
hardly notice it. You see the box end, but it's not too ugly.. It doesn't use
the whole thing that is under the rear of the truck. Just the center box receiver
part, which is welded to the bottom of the bumper directly.
The hitch/ball etc is not on there unless I'm actually using it.
I also have a ball on top of the bumper, but it sat too high for some of the
trailers I use. And with the receiver , I can use any size ball by just swapping
them out.
It's about as hidden as you will get from a receiver type hitch.
