What genius at Ford?

[BroncoKing610]

Who the F### at Ford design the rear of the Bronco to make it f%%%%ng useless for towing unless you remove the spare tire every time

*I have factory tow package

I have no idea what you’re talking about. The hitch works like any other. Plenty of room for a normal trailer. If you’re looking to attach a bike rack or similar, then you may need a short extension piece.

My receiver has about a 3 1/2" drop, to clear the 35s.

No problem towing here
OP what issue are you having?

Idk what you are pulling but every boat trailer Ive towed with my Bronco has required taking off the tire so the safety pin doesnt hit the tire/bottom of tailgate

Maybe you just need a ball with a little more drop? I've never had a problem pulling a trailer with it.

I've pulled my teardrop trailer and also my quad trailer since day 1 with no issues,well only issue is can't open rear door when pulling trailer because they thought copying Jeep would be smart instead of a drop down tailgate

No issues towing with mine - wish the tow capacity was higher, but it’s been great for my uses so far.

We can see you're frustrated. Post some pics and details about the hitches you've been trying. Someone should be able to help if it's possible.

Dude probably has this 4 inch drop hitch turned upside down….

This is what you need! Works great!

I've had to remove the spare to tow a small camper with an electric jack that was in the way. I also had to remove it to tow a U-haul 6x12 enclosed trailer. Did not have to remove to tow an open motorcycle trailer from Uhaul.

What gets me is the location of the wiring - I've had to remove the wiring bracket to get my bike rack threaded pin in.

And remember that extended and drop hitches add leverage and lower your towing capacity Someone on here awhile back actually came into a thread about that with facts and math to show how much.

 

[BroncoKing610]

I use the standard hitch with the common 2” drop…I would need at least a 4” drop to be fine but at that point the trailers will be pointing down which is a no no

which way does the tongue go where the ball is attached. Is it swooping up or down? If up, then flip the ball over to the other side.
