My 2007 OEM pinbox was a Lippert 1116 which is classified in the link above as "medium" length. I replaced it with a 5th Airborne approx the same length. But both pin boxes had adequate length for me to hook up without raising the tailgate on my 2012 F350 long bed.


And as questioned above, is your hitch centered over or very nearly over your axle?
Same here 1116 on my 2008 3400RL. Its been towed with two different trucks, both short beds .Presently Ram 3500 , which is the shortest of the three, Ford , Ram, and GM . No problems backing in with the tailgate down, or cab clearance .
