Average Customer Rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars (769 Customer Reviews)

This hitch has worked out great for me over the last year. It’s very heavy duty and easy to adjust. I’ve hauled a 9,000 lb boat, long-distance on numerous occasions without issue. I also haul a landscape trailer on a daily basis weighing over 5,000lbs and haven’t had a single issue. Great hitch that was significantly cheaper than others and is very high quality. I’ve recommended it to several people and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again. The only thing I would like to have now in a hitch is a tongue weight gauge, but it isn’t necessary.

This is a great hitch. Highly recommend this hitch. This is my second curt hitch, first one was on my ford f450 but unfortunately that one wouldn’t fit on my new truck, do to shank size.
by: Jerry B.07/09/2016
I am very impressed with C45900 ball mount. Curt is an excellent manufacturer. The only thing I did not like are the snap rings on the pins. I have seen those get hooked unintentionally or be pulled to steal the ball mount. I replaced Curt's pins with Grade 8 bolts, drilled holes and secured with a padlock. It would be nice if someone made a locking hitch pin with enough span for the channel. I added the reflective tape for higher visibility. I live in Phoenix where they have a plant. Please run this idea by them and let me know what they think. The two locking hitch pins would only raise the price by $50. If you have a vendor who has longer pins please let me know. Using unsecured pins is asking for trouble. Thanks--Jerry

Excellent product that fit my need perfectly. I tow with 2 trucks, one needs a drop and the other needs it up a bit. I usually leave it on one truck but I also tow 3 different trailers with it and was sick of having to carry all sorts of hitches.
I've had no complaints at all with it, I'd definitely buy recommend it to anyone.

Great hitch, after one year I still recommend. Get one!
by: JohnnyB09/28/2017
Excellent product. Installed in minutes. I tow a 14 k lb dump trailer. Needed the additional rise on the hitch. The draw bar is adjustable so that I can tow my utility trailer as well. High quality like most products I have purchased from etrailer.com

We need the ability for different vehicles to pull a trailer and this should work great but haven't had a chance to use yet.

Still Great
by: Greg 09/13/2023
I have had this ball mount on my truck for about a year now. Has held up well with no real issues. One pen did disappear earlier this year, but not sure if it somehow worked out on its own or if someone stole it. Replacement was easy to find. Easy to adjust, does not make any noticeable noise.
by: James07/20/2019
The hitch worked great I bought this hitch plus a Curt Lunette ring C48660 for my pull truck. Used the hitch setup for the first time last night and worked flawless, I would definitely recommend this setup to my friends the price was great and the hitch is well built.Thanks etrailer
by: Chris Hall12/29/2018
This hitch is as KISS as an adjustable hitch could be. Built very well, with good thick gussets, a solid receiver shank, perfect welds and a good powder coat. The fact the trailer balls are built from one forged piece means no worry about a nut loosening and no weld to potentially break. I would go ahead and recommend you buy two replacement rubber isolators and just go ahead and put them in the other two holes in the hitch so no matter where the ball is it has some contact with an isolator without having to move the one it comes with. I highly recommend etrailer, they have great prices and fast shipping and they put out a lot of very helpful videos and pictures of the products they are selling.
by: Michael09/27/2022
This hitch mount replaced about 6 others that I kept in my truck under the seat. This hitch is so easy to use. It's strength is so much more than my truck can handle so I have vot been worried about it failing. Adjusting takes seconds. I wish I would have had this for longer and I have had two friends that bought the same one. We all love them. I'm currently a "Band Dad" and I have to often pull about a half dozen trailers. I gave my old hitches to the band and.... everyone wants to borrow mine if I'm not using. Game changer for sure.
by: David 10/10/2023
Wroks great. I can adjust this hitch for all 6 of my trailers.
by: Erik 12/22/2023
Great product at a great price and shipped very fast. Your warehouse to my door in GA in less than 48 hours FREE! Thanks. I always enjoy dealing with your company.
by: Jessica06/12/2020
I like the overall versatility of this hitch but the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because Curt is manufactured in the USA. The box I received says it was made in India! I hope this metal is strong and well made cause my horses lives depend on it.

Thank you for your review. The Curt hitches are assembled in the USA but not the ball mounts. The only adjustable ball mounts that we carry that are made in the USA are the B&W adjustable ball mounts like part BWTS10040B.
by: Robert 09/12/2023
I am completely satisfied with the adjustable hitch. It's heavy duty and easy to adjust.
by: John C05/11/2017
Ordered Curt C45900 for my work truck. Chose this product because it's rated slightly above what I need, it's steel and highly adjustable. Etrailers website is very easy to navigate, has a lot of installed photos for comparisons and has fast shipping. Will continue to shop with Etrailer as needs arise.
by: Robert 08/30/2023
Very quick in delivery. Received it 1 day earlier than expected. This ballmount is definitely heavy duty. Haven't used it yet but looks like it will handle 14,000 Lbs with ease.
by: Steven.H06/03/2016
Love this ball mount, i just bought a new dump trailer and needed something with some meat to it. This product it solid steel and can with stand a very heavy load. I would reccomend this product to anyone. I started with another brand product and it just could not handle the tough jobs.
by: william k06/30/2013
Work like it should and is easy to adjust.I like.the set screw on the back to keep the hitch from rattling and to lock the pins also.Well pleased
by: Dave04/19/2017

Measure from the top of your receiver down to the ground, and choose a ballmount that would place the trailer ball right in the center of that range, and you will be set for most trailers. An adjustable ball mount like part # C45900 might be a good option. It has a maximum rise of 5 inches and a maximum drop of 6 inches, so you can adjust the height exactly as needed.

- Recommended Ball Mount or Weight Distribution Shank for Adjusting Height of Hitch Ball For Level TowThere are many adjustable ball mounts like the Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 which are adjustable in rise and drop to account for trailer couplers that are higher or lower than your hitch receiver. You also could use a weight distribution system to help control sway and give you a smoother ride. These systems can utilize different length shanks to also give you that adjustability while supplying the other load leveling and sway correcting assistance. I've attached a couple...

In the 90's it appears they used to use 2 inch hitch balls and then moved to 2-5/16 inches. All of the models from that point have a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball. If you want to be sure you have the correct hitch ball on hand, I recommend the Curt Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900 which has both hitch ball sizes and will give you adjustability to tow level.

view full answer... - Do I Need to Modify the Trailer Height After Getting 2" Lift On Truck To Tow LevelFor a 2" lift on the 2017 Outback Wagon you should not need to do any adjustments to the trailer to tow level because 2" is minimal. You may need to switch out ball mount to a ball mount with more of a drop if your hitch height has increased. I recommend to measure from the top of the hitch receiver to the ground. Then measure from the bottom of the trailer coupler to the ground. The difference in those two measurements is how much drop you need to tow level. We recommend to be within 2"...
