Towing

[Snakedoctor]

The rearend went out on my cobra and the dealership wants more than I'm willing to pay for a stock replacement to fix it. I will be towing it home with my Raptor. My question is what kind of hitch do I need. I have the towing package but I've never had a truck before and I"m not sure about the hitches. I seen that they have straight ones and drop hitches.

You will need between a 2" and 4" drop depending on your trailer. The trailer nose should be level when hooked up so measure that height then select the right drop.

I will be using a Uhaul car trailer

They sell the hitches at Uhaul so just test a couple out to see. I am guessing a 2 inch drop will work.

i tow 3 quads on a flat trailer with a 2" drop

something that is rated for 10k and its going to be a 2 5/8s ball if this is a one time deal the drop of the hitch shouldnt matter matter unless you have a dove tail ive towed plenty of trailers with a straight out hitch cuz its stronger and cheaper. you can get away with a 6k 2 inch drop hitch depending on the weight of the cobra and trailer.
