Undercover Swing case

Has anyone installed one of these on F250/F350 with hitch installed? Does it clear the hitch?

I think some have. There is some threads. If thing is on the drivers side they cover the plug receptacle.

It will be in my next truck. Long bed shouldn’t have any clearance issues.

Well installed the swing case. Fits great, easy access and makes everything very organized.

Something to consider: The distance from the tail gate to the hitch mount is the same whether it's a long bed or a short bed truck. The extra space is forward of the hitch mount in long bed trucks. If the measurements from the tail gate to the hitch was longer in long bed trucks, you'd have clearance problems with the truck bumper hitting the front of the fifth wheel in turns.

You make a very good point.
