Hi All, Haven't been on the forum since the format changed, but have always gotten great advice here so I thought I'd get your opinion. We will be ordering a 2013 F350 4x4, crew cab, lwb with 20" tires and the Integrated Reese Elite Series Hitch. We have a mid-profile 2005 Durango (by KZ) and are a little worried about rail clearance. The specs on the new truck indicate load floor height of 37.7" and cargo box height of 20" but at this point can't find if those measurements are with 18" or 20" tires. We currently pull with a 2005 F350 4x4, crew cab, lwb with 18" tires (the specks for load floor height are 38.2" and cargo box height is 20") and have a 15.5K pullrite hitch which is set at the midway adjustment in height with an available range of 14.5-17.5". We have about 4" (or a little more) clearance on the rails with a not quite level top line on the 5ver.
Does anyone out there have the integrated hitch and how do you like it? Do you feel we need to be concerned about clearance issues with the new truck and hitch or are we worrying too much.
Is there a maximum angle that is acceptable when pulling a 5ver?
As usual, thanks for your help and advice. I did a number of searches but didn't get a hit on my concerns so I hope I didn't miss it if this has already been a topic.
