Tundra to F 250 hitch height.

Traded the 2010 Tundra in on a 2013 F-250. I forgot to measure the height of the receiver box on the Tundra. So I would know how far to adjust the hitch height for our 300KBS. Anyone with a Tundra know the height to the center of the receiver box?

Thanks

Not that I have a Tundra, but it probably matters which Tundra (4x4, cab, bed, etc).

Other than that, you'll possibly have to readjust it again depending on how much (or little) the 250 squats with the hitch load.

I would just find one that looks like your old truck and measure it to give you a start. You will be surprised how much your new truck is going to squat. The new 3/4 and 1 ton trucks ride nicer but it doesn't take much to make them squat.

Suggest heading to a Toyota dealer and measure. I traded my 12 Tundra Dbl Cab in on GMC 3500 and was amazed the heights were virtually the same.

I know that if you had that height it gives you a starting point, but you are probably going too have to readjust anyway, why don't you start at the ball being 1" higher than the trailer sitting level.
