Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Really satisfied with my purchase. Recieved the hitch and was in perfect condition with all parts necessary. Solid receiver very good quality hitch.

Installation requires some kind of lift (for the hitch and/or for the vehicle) or a second set of hands. Tape the inside shims to the frame. Heavy so you need 2 people when it is time to bolt it on.

Curt 14017 on my 2019 ford f-150 supercrew 4x4. Fit perfectly and install was straightforward. Installed on my 2017 f150 xl.

The good thing is i learned how to get the spare tire down and know now to keep a plastic tarp in truck incase i ever have to change a flat tire on the wet or snow covered ground. Fairly easy for laying on your back in a driveway.

Nice hitch. Finally bit the bullet and pick this up. Todays date 7/7/2020.



Cons

It points down. Unfortunately when it is shipped, it is not in a box, and is shipped without any protection at all.

This is probably the third hitch i’ve installed and the first that i didn’t have to drill holes in the frame.


Not in any packaging so expect dings and scratches.


Curt in their advertising point out the special coating process they use to protect the hitch from the elements, however with n...  Read More


Packaging was not great but wasn’t scratched up too bad.

Hitch install was easy and it works great towed a 20ft car trailer with a 1999 toyota tacoma a day after install work great
