    F-150 4X4 and Triton 18TX hitch drop

    I posted this on the Tin Boats Forum before I thought to check for a Towing Forum. Sorry!

    I'm still waiting on my boat to be built and since I'm bored, I keep thinking of boat stuff to occupy my time. lol
    I have an F-150 4X4 and am wondering about the drop I need on the hitch receiver. Obviously the ultimate goat is to have the boat level with the bed of the truck. Just wondering if any of y'all might already know. :)

    Don't think you'll ever get the boat level with the bed of the truck. I always try to get the boat level when the trucks level - you do that with drop hitches, just have to figure out the drop.

    i have an 09 F-150 with 18" factory wheels and a leveling kit installed, 3" drop works for me.
