Great purchase experience. eTrailer has this convenient package of ball and hitch already torqued together, AND includes a locking pin in addition to the normal cotter pin! Website is clear on details of package, contents, and dimensions of each component. Shipping was fast and packaged well. I’m not sure if I saved money compared to buying all this separately, but I’m going to believe I did. Thanks!

etrailer service
excellent
the hitch don't fit perfect with the spare tire other ways is pretty good
if you tele out the spare tire you going to have a hard time to put them back



etrailer sevicio es excelente
la pieza no se acopla perfecto con la rueda de repuesto del resto se monta perfecto .
si se retira la rueda de repuesto es muy dificil de poner de vuelta en el compartimento

Nice combination to go with my front hitch for the F150.

Joseph

10/10/2023

Good product. A bit short for my application of front mount on my F150. Recommend you use a longer hitch for mounting front of this model truck.



by:

Just received my starter kit and it seems like a really good buy. I’m very happy with this purchase and looking forward to putting it to great use soon. Thank you etrailer. I’m a very happy customer.



by:

Still carry this in the cab of my truck, because it came in a great carry case. The only real downfall is the plug--which I used initially, but it soon fell out. I've not used it yet, but it is the mating hitch for the receiver (same brand, etc). It is very well made, and the price was right. I'd buy again.

I store it in the case behind the driver’s seat. It still looks new.



by:

Very convenient kit. Nice to have the locking pin and receiver cover. I reversed to the 2" rise position since my 2016 Honda Odyssey already sits low to the ground.



by:

Will use for towing teardrop camper. Good quality product, good value, and shipped quickly. Product comes in storage case that will be handy when not installed on truck. Helpful that ball was already torqued on receiver.

  • Is Trailer Wiring Harness Needed for a 2017 Jeep Cherokee
    The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e62TR is an excellent option for a 2017 Jeep Cherokee and a confirmed fit. It provides a 2" opening which is great for towing or hitch mounted accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. It also offers a completely bolt-on install so no drilling is required. In regards to a trailer wiring harness like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C56208 which is what I recommend. This is only needed...

  • Recommended Hidden Hitch For A 2022 Toyota RAV4
    The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH97FR is going to be the closest hitch to a factory installed hitch. The EcoHitch cross tube will install behind your RAV4's rear bumper, leaving only the receiver visible beneath it, which will provide you with a clean from the factory look. The EcoHitch has an easy, bolt-on installation with no drilling or welding required. When installing a trailer wiring harness I recommend the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56434. I like this wiring harness...

  • Recommended Curt Trailer Hitch For A 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
    Out of the two Curt Trailer hitches, I recommend The Curt Trailer Hitch # C74DR. I like this hitch over the other Curt hitch because it has a more traditional installation and will attach to the frame of your 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon when the Curt Trailer Hitch # CU74FR attaches to the Gladiator's rear bumper cover and will secure through the rear cross member. I will attach pictures of the installations below. The Curt Hitch # C74DR also has a higher towing capacity at 7,500 pounds...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2023 Kia Sportage HEV
    When installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e38KR onto your 2023 Kia Sportage HEV the rear bumper will not need to be notched. You will need to lower the exhaust for ease of installation. The Underbody panel(s) and or fascia must be temporarily loosened or removed and you may have trim to reattach the panel or the fascia. I recommend the etrailer hitch over the Curt hitch # C94WR because the etrailer hitch has a matte black finish that will make scratches and scuffs that you...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Toyota Highlander Hybrid
    The trailer hitch that I recommend for a 2023 Toyota Highlander is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e75ZR which is a fit for all models, including the Hybrid. It features a bolt-on fit without any drilling required. In order to complete your towing setup you'll also need a wiring harness like the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # TK99FR and a ball mount kit like the Curt Towing Starter Kit part # C45554. Unfortunately, the Highlander is on...

  • Best Hitch And Wiring Harness For A 2024 Subaru Crosstrek
    Yes we do! I can definitely help get you set up. For your 2024 Crosstrek I recommend the etrailer class 3 hitch # e98912. This is rated to tow 3,500 lbs and has a 525 lb tongue weight capacity. For the 2024 Crosstrek models, Subaru added a transmission cooler and increased the vehicles towing capacity to 3,500 lbs. So you will be able to use this hitch to its full carrying capacity. This will be a fairly simple no drill install. You will have to use the included bolt leaders to fish the...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2021 Hyundai Palisade
    Though all our trailer hitches that are confirmed to fit your 2021 Hyundai Palisade are very similar, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e95ZR. I like the etrailer hitch over the others because the etrailer hitch has a matte black powder coating that will hide scratches and scuffs better that you would receive from flying rocks and road debris while towing. The other hitches have a gloss black paint which shows the scuffs and scratches more frequently. Since you're towing...

    No, you will not have to add any spacers on the driver or passenger side between the bumper and the bumper brackets when installing the Curt Hitch # 13013 onto your 2004 Toyota Tacoma. You will need to remove the two bolts mounting the bumper and remove the bumper from the vehicle. Then you will have to remove the bumper brackets, position the receiver against the frame and install the 1/2 inch bolts. No additional spacers are needed. The trailer hitch has a bolt-on installation with...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy
    The hitches we offer, the Curt # C34ER and the etrailer brand # e28AR are identical except for their finish. The Curt has a glossy finish, the etrailer has a matte finish. I prefer the etrailer brand for a couple of reasons: Both hitches will fit the Calligraphy trim. • The etrailer brand is usually less expensive by a few dollars • The matte finish tends to disappear a little better under the vehicle, which makes the hitch a bit less visible. If you plan on towing a trailer you will...

  • Will Curt and Draw-Tite 2" Trailer Hitches Both Fit a 2023 Kia Sportage PHEV
    Yes, both the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # DT22MR and Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C94WR are fits for a 2023 Kia Sportage PHEV per the respective manufactures. They are also both great options for this vehicle. The main difference is that the Draw-Tite hitch has a bracket welded on for a towing connector so that is what I'd go with if you do plan to tow but if you're just using it for bike racks and cargo carriers then go with the Curt hitch. Please note, if...
