We did go to the Ford dealership and did measure. The heights were close but we are concerned about the infamous Ford sag. Lots of variables and not much wriggle room.
Sorry about the type in the truck ID. I have spent a huge amount of time researching this truck and typed it in without thinking.
Thank you for your replies
And ACZL, your driving a dully. It should be lower than our single rear whl. Problems?

Our old '03 F250 had 16" tires and no problems reaching hitch. Moved onto a '15 F350 w/ 18" tires and Reese 16k hitch still okay. Got a B&W 18K Patriot last year when we got the new coach and I couldn't reach hitch due to being in lowest setting (thank God for tall sons!!....LOL). Purchased a tire step, now I can reach hitch. Now have the '17 F350 Dually w/ 17" tires and while lower than the '15, the fenders for tires stick out a foot, thus making it again hard for me to reach things. Enter the tire step. Works great.
What I really want is side box board steps that were once offered by many running board mfr's years ago. This WOULD help IMMENSELY!! But seeing box boards are no longer, have seen side steps, but don't like the small footing/peg.
