Nope, it’s a well known Ford issue. Truck can tow 13k but the hitch is only rated to 5k.
I just didn’t want to risk it with an 8000# rig
So I added a 10k hitch. Shitty part is the stock hitch is integral to the bumper.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a91812825f.jpg
Just not sure on owner liability if the hitch broke and owner was found to have overloaded the factory hitch. I can’t afford paying for my wrecked boat when insurance is rejected.
$150 10k hitch is WELL worth it. It masks well with a hitch plug and some dirt lol.
