This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.This is our third trailer hitch from etrailer and we've always been pleased with the quality and longevity. I just put this one on our new Kia EV9 yesterday and it looks great. A few notes for anyone else that may be installing this hitch on an 2024 EV9:
1. The 10mm nuts on the underbody panel are on rather long bolts, so you need a deep socket to reach them. I just used a wrench to get them, but its a little challenging because they're also in deep holes.
2. The 14mm nut is attached to the panel, so you have to add some resistance by gently pulling down on the panel some while you're loosening it. Otherwise, it just spins in place.
3. It looks like there are 12 push fasteners to remove, but there are only 8 (as the directions state). If you look closely, you'll see the four that don't need to be removed (one in each corner closest to each tire, and if I remember correctly the third one in from each tire).
4. The directions say to install the spacer on the driver's side. My hitch came with a spacer already welded on the hitch on the driver's side, so I installed the spacer on the passenger side.
5. The directions say to put one bolt in the spacer temporarily while you're attaching it. I would recommend putting them both in to make sure the holes are properly aligned with the frame. Also, not a bad idea to start all four bolts into the frame before you put the hitch up in place to make sure the threads in the frame are cleared out.
Over the years this is the 3rd trailer hitch I have gotten for different vehicles. As such I have long term experience using the products .
With close to 7 years use no problems or rust or failure. Equal to those you get through dealer at less than a third of the price.
I have installed all 3 solo and I'm not a motor head.
Perfect fit clear instructions. Not much on the internet on installing these but the instructions got me there about 2 hrs
Lightning fast shipping. Uhaul said very easy to install.
