Perfect for light-duty towing, this custom, vehicle trailer hitch receiver features fully welded, gloss powder coated steel construction. Drawbar sold separately.
A very high quality product, looks great and had no blemishes. The instructions were clear and precise, and install was relatively straight forward (only a small trim modification was needed). Perfectly placed to be accessible but still pretty low profile. Works great for my bike rack.
Install was super easy. Removing exhaust does make it significantly easier and using cheap drill to enlarge the hole so you can run fishing wire was no problem. Unfortunately, its not level. Looks so goofy.
Its not the rack. Used this rack on a different car with etrailer purchased receiver without this gross tilt.
This was my second installation of a Curt product. Well built with easy directions. That said,
I have a few installation recommendations:
1. There is no need to remove the plastic panel as indicated in step one of the PDF. The hitch will fit perfectly without removal.
2. Best to completely remove the rear exhaust for easier access. Spray the rubber hangers and metal shafts with WD40. Using channel locks, grab the metal tip and the edge of the rubber hanger. It will pop right off.
3. You will indeed need to enlarge the center hole to accommodate carriage bolt and spacer.
4. There will be no need to bend the heat shield as indicated in step 4 of the PDF.
Project finished in a little over 2 hours.
Install went perfectly following instructions. Did not have to bend any heat shields.
The panel that is referenced in the instructions, "Return panel to vehicle owner (to throw in the trash?)," I'm assuming that wasn't reinstalled.
Didn't even have to trim any off the bumper.
Thanks, this was my second hitch install from etrailer.com and when I need a third I know where I'm coming back to. The information provided step by step and overall customer service is refreshing in 2024 where customers seem to be an afterthought.
If you're on the fence, trust me and buy from this site you won't regret it.
Fits very well on my 2023 3 hatch. The instructions say you have to drill the frame, but you can remove the rear bumper instead.
Worked perfectly for my move across country with my Mazda 3 towing a small trailer!
Fits well on 2020 Mazda3 hatchback. Easier to install if you remove rear exhaust entirely (won’t need to drill holes larger this way as the instructions state).
Great product overall! Delivery was quick, installation directions were accurate. I did opt to take the rear exhaust off as there are only two bolts and it made working under the vehicle allot easier for drilling the factory hole bigger to accommodate the installation hardware.
