Used a bunch of times, mostly for my 5x7 utility trailer. Works just fine, no issues!



by:

Super pleased with the tow receiver I purchased from you for my Jeep Gladiator. Nice solid product, easy install, looks amazing on my Jeep and now ready to use. The only change I made in install was to remove my rear bumper for install opposed to drilling through it for the center bolt like in the supplied directions. Loved the install bolt tool they came with. Thanks etrailer!



by:
2024 Jeep Gladiator

Easy to install, elected to remove the bumper and not drill the hole in the plastic, took less than a half hour to install



by:

This is the second Curt hitch I have purchased from etrailer. Both were superior quality to other hitches. Fit and finish were excellent. Curt recommends cutting a 2" hole through the plastic portion of the Gladiator bumper. Do yourself a favor and remove the bumper (four easy bolts), install the hitch and have a professional looking install. Great product!

The receiver arrived with all parts and directions. I like the unit now that it is installed. Installation was easy enough in whole but I had an issue with the 3/4 bolt (hex). This bolt did not want to go in the hole. There was too much build up on the inside tread of powder coating. I had to clean out the coating by running the bolt in and out using penetrating oil and other tools. I even broke a Hex driver working the bolt in and out. I spent more time doing this than removing the bumper cover and installing the receiver and reinstalling the cover. I also did not like the directions to use a hole saw and cut a 2 inch hole in bumper cover. In my opinion to saw a hole in the bumper cover you are destroying the cover. etrailer should provide instructions to remove the bumper cover from the Gladiator. It is fairly simple to do, requires the removal of license plate, the 2 electricidal plugs under the jeeps bumper cover (license plate lights and the trailer electrical hook up), along with plastics (trees) retainers for the 2 wires running to the bumper cover. The 4 nuts under the bumper cover (2 nuts on on the outside of each rail) and the 2 bolts under the license plate. Once the 2 bolts removed the bumper can be pulled right off. I highly recommend that etrailer or the Curt covers or plugs the 3/4 in hole to not allow overspray to get into the treads or provide instructions and tools to remove the over sprays. There are some video's on the web that explain the removal process.

You guys rock the best service ever holy S—— the fastest I ever seen all parts are in box nice product . Nice welds . Nailed it



by:

Lauren at etrailer helped us get the right parts after inadvertently ordering a hitch that would not fit a 2023 Jeep Gladiator Freedom. What a fantastic customer service experience!



by:

Perfect fit (2024 Jeep Gladiator), Easy installation. solo installation...30 minutes.



by:

Curt products are great. Good delivery from etrailer, in a good box, well secured. I watched the installation video and would suggest that the fish wires be set through the hitch plate, thereby getting the carriage bolts automatically lined up and ready for the nut. Also, I put a couple drops of Red Locktite on all three bolts.
(Side note, 250 ft/lbs ain’t for the weak ones)

Easy installation on my 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. Fits perfectly. Excellent quality.

Gap between the hitch and bumper. Hard to find a 1/2" hex bit.

Great! A little rust, but works it works great. Took only 10 minutes to install and Ive used it numerous times.



by:

The part arrived early. I think it will work great. It is well worth the money. It is everything and more ROM what I was told. Easy installation. Thank you very much for your help



by:

Great products and outstanding service. Delivery was very timely and my hitch receiver was a perfect fit.



by:

Brand new in box with hardware. I didn’t have the heart to drill a hole through the bumper cover to attach tapered bolt so I removed the whole bumper and then installed the product. Looks good can’t wait to use it.



by:

Product bolts right up to the factory mounts on Jeep Gladiator that didn't come with MaxTow options such as the Sport Edition. Manufacturer originally intends for this to be a ball mount through the bumper. Haven't tried to tow anything, but I bought it for a "t-Bone" hitch extender for Kayak hauling. Should work fine.

Side note: this hitch adapter can be installed without cutting a hole in the bumper, but have to remove the bumper to drive in the 1/2" Allen bolt. Another tip would be to leave only 1 thread left on the wire guides so you can seat the carriage bolts into the flat "tube" washer. Once these nuts are ran up almost to the frame by hand, you can pull the wires off and use an impact to drive them up to place and torque.

2023 Jeep Gladiator

I think the hitch is of good quality. My only problem was, I have a jeep high altitude and the instalation video is for a basic Jeep Gladiator. My bumper has a lot of sensor cables and it took me a long time to figure out how to remove the bumper.



by:

Product shipped and received on time. I'm very happy with the hitches. All hardware was included with instructions on installing hitches.



by:

Quick and easy install. eTrailor ‘how to’ video is awesome installation guide.

Good part that I looked for exact part is because when I bought 2022 Jeep Gladiator on a parking lot (not order it at the factory), its tow package was partially parts. So, I needed to buy trailer hitch receiver. Now, it is a complete package with adding trailer brake controller.



by:

Thank you so much. Etrailer is #1. Thank you again.



by:

Awesome product and great service. Thank you etrailer

Hitch came quick, installed in about an hour! Removed bumper for a clean look. The hardest part was making sure you have all the right tools and my husband installed it

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System or Extended Ball Mount for Clearing a Tail Gate
    Yeah, there are no TorkLift SuperHitches available for a 2023 Jeep Gladiator or any Jeep. Those are the heaviest duty bumper pull hitches and are reserved for large trucks with the highest towing capacities. You'll want to look into a weight distribution system with an extended shank if your Gladiator's hitch is rated for one. If you have a hitch that mounts underneath your frame like the Curt item # C74DR you can use a weight distribution system. For a 550 lbs tongue weight, I recommend...

    The best overall option for adding a Curt trailer hitch receiver to your 2023 Jeep Gladiator is the one that gives you the most overall function and capacity, which is the hitch that bolts onto your frame: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C74DR There are a few reasons the # C74DR is the best Curt hitch, starting with the install.

  • 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...

    For a hitch that attaches directly to your Gladiator's bumper you will want the Curt Trailer Hitch item # CU74FR. This hitch is custom fit and uses included hardware to mount to your Jeep. I really like this hitch because of the simplicity of the installation. This hitch attaches to the underside of your Jeep Gladiator's rear bumper with three bolts. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have attached...

  • Can OEM Hitch on 2021 Jeep Gladiator Be Replaced with Draw-Tite 76310
    If your OEM hitch is simply bolted into place onto the crossmember, you could indeed remove it and install the Draw-Tite 76310 which we sell as # DR64FR Class III hitch in its place. If the existing hitch is welded into place, it could be an integral part of the vehicle frame and shouldn't be removed. If what you're referring to is simply the crossmember at the rear of the vehicle that has the holes to accept a bolt on receiver, you can simply use # CU74FR, but you'd need a hole saw to...

Both of these hitches are very similar in the sense that they install in virtually the exact same way, and both have the same 500lb tongue weight rating and 5,000lb trailer weight rating.

This hitch is made in the USA, has a bolt-on, no-weld installation and will provide you with a 2" hitch receiver which is the most common size used for hitch mounted accessories such as bike racks, cargo carriers and ball mounts.

The Draw-Tite has a higher capacity (7500 lbs towing/1125 lbs tongue weight), while the Curt has a 5000 lb towing/500 lb tongue weight capacity.

    I'd recommend a US made Curt hitch for your 2021 Jeep Gladiator. The correct hitch will depend on the capacity you're needing. If a 5000 lb towing/500 lb tongue weight capacity is sufficient, the inexpensive and simple to install # CU74FR would work great, unless you have the Diesel model. If you need a higher capacity (7500 lb towing/1125 lb tongue weight) or have the Diesel model, you'll want to go with the Draw-Tite # DR64FR. If you need a trailer wiring harness, use # 118786.

    There is no cover to keep out water and debris on the Curt # CU74FR. When We've installed it we actually removed the bumper to not have to drill that hole. It looks like you should be able to find a 2" grommet from a home improvement store to plug the hole, but you'll probably need to do some DIY'ing to make it fit perfectly.
