Hitch Question?

I have a F-250 crewcab with a 4" suspension lift. I want to tow my trailer and use a weight distribution hitch. Is this possible with my truck? It seems that all the weight dist. hitches I have seen attach directly to the hitch receiver. I would need a drop hitch for my lift and then need the weight dist. to attach to that.

Hitch Question?

You can get dropped ball mounts that will work with your truck. The ball mount is the part that slides into the 2" sqaure opening in your hitch. The weight distributing parts attach to the ball mount, along with the ball.

Any shop that sells hitches will have what you need.
