Just wandering what type of frame mounted trailer hitch will work on the 1987 f150 still want to keep the spare tire carrier in place any one know of what type dont't mind doing any mods to get this done

 

dont most receiver hitches bolt to the frame rails and leave the spare tire alone? i had a receiver put on mine and it didnt get in the way of my spare at all. as far as i know there aint much difference between 87-96 with where the spare is.

 

I just bolted whatever I found, used, on my '87 and the spare hung just fine.

 

most trailer hitches kind of hang out away from the spare tire under body rack. Mabye heavy duty ones will get in the way but I'm talking about 20,000 massive trailer hitches thatch not really for f150s
