i Just put a resse hitch on my '95 F-150 and i can hardly tell its there . i will say if your hitch is adjustable like mine i'll give you a far warning to be prepared to drill some 1/2 inch holes, have a 19mm around, and Finally don't loose your religion when you think the hitch won't clear the spare tire bracket on the passenger side. Just push the hitch back a little bit and your good. Goodluck on your project

I got it put in. I had to remove the bumper and drill the holes. It did take a while but I was not giving up. Thanks for all the help guys.
