Average Customer Rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars (51 Customer Reviews)

Package arrived on time-there was a good deal of dust in the package but that doesn’t hurt anything-the hitch and pieces are heavy duty.
by: JohnnyFix09/24/2021
This hitch was exactly what was needed for my landscaping customer's small dump body truck. It replaced the original custom hitch with only minor modifications to accommodate the cargo body. I have done considerable work for this customer over many years. No issues reported with this job. All good!! Thanks to Curt and etrailer for great products and stellar service. —

Review from a similar Class V Universal Weld-On Hitch in Heavy Duty Receiver Hitch
attached this hitch to my 1984 American General 5 ton military truck. Had to do some modification to air lines and drill a few holes but it is perfect for pulling civilian trailers with the M 813.

Very happy with this hitch. The size of the end plates matched the frame on our old truck and with the class V weight rating, our old truck can do a few other things around the farm now. Thank you.

- Availability of a Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 1961 International C-120 Travelall SUVAlthough we don't have a custom fit trailer hitch for your 1961 International C-120 Travelall, doesn't mean it can't be done. I recommend having a certified welder weld a hitch receiver like such as part # 15901. It's a universal hitch usually designed for service or utility body trucks. But you can align the hitch body with the adjustable side brackets to match the width of your 1961 International C-120 Travelall. I included a link to all of the specialty trailer hitches we currently...
view full answer... - Recommended Class V Trailer Hitch For 2003 Newmar Dutch Star RVThe Class lV or V hitches we have that are available for your 2003 Newmar Dutch Star RV require welding installations. I recommend the Curt Class V Universal Weld-on Hitch, part # 15901. This will fit frames from 18 up to 44 inches, and with the side brackets produces a drop of 3 inches from the frame. This hitch has a 2 inch receiver opening. You will want to make sure you do not exceed the towing capacity of the RV.
view full answer... - What are the Towing Capacities for the Curt Hitches part # 15901 and # 15902I can tell you what Curt lists as the capacities for their # 15901 and # 15902 hitches. You are correct, they both have 12k capacities. The only other capacity you will need to look up is the capacity for your RV. If it is at least 12k then you could take full advantage of the hitch's capacity assuming they were installed correctly. This info should be in the RV owner's manual.

- Trailer Hitch for 2009 Sterling Bullet Heavy Duty TruckI have a solution for you, however there are not any bolt-on style trailer hitches made specifically for your 2009 Sterling Bullet C and C 5500. Instead, you could use a trailer hitch like the Curt Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brakcets # 15901. This hitch features a 3 inch drop, is adjustable up to 44 inches wide, and has a 2 inch square hitch receiver. Weld-on brackets for the hitch can slide from 18 inches to nearly 44 inches. The hitch has a gross tow weight of 12,000...
view full answer... - Class V Weld-On Trailer Hitch for a 2001 Fourwinns RV on Ford E-450 Van ChassisIf Curt trailer hitch # 15901 was welded so that the top of the cross tube was flush against the bottoms of the frame rails the drop would only be about an inch or so. The other weld-on options would have even more drop so the Curt hitch is your best option.
view full answer... - Highest Rated Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2003 Ford E-450I do have an option for you but the 2003 Ford E-450 is a cab and chassis model to which our aftermarket manufacturers do not test/designed their hitches for. In addition to this we do not offer a Class VI trailer hitch receiver. Therefore, the best option I can offer you is the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets part # 15901. This hitch has a Class V rating with a 2" receiver tube opening. It fits frame rails spaced between 18" and 43" apart therefore will work well for...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch for RV with 2001 Ford F-53 ChassisI may have a solution for you, however we do not currently offer any custom-fit trailer hitches for the 2001 Ford F-53 Chassis on your motorhome. Our available selection of trailer hitches designed for RVs and motorhomes are all Class III hitches. In order to upgrade, I recommend looking at a Universal Weld-On Heavy Duty Hitch like the Curt # 15901. This is a Class V trailer hitch that can fit frames from 18 inches up to almost 44 inches using the adjustable side brackets. This will offer...
view full answer... - Best Class V Trailer Hitch for a Class C MotorhomeI do still have an option for you in the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch part # 15901 but it sounds like you are looking for a custom fit trailer hitch and none of the trailer hitch manufacturers we offer custom fit them to motorhome chassis. Therefore, you will need to notify the above to work for you. It has a class v rating with adjustable brackets that will accommodate your motorhome with slight alterations. The low profile brackets will also provide you with the flush look...
view full answer... - Class-5 Adjustable Width Hitch for 2012 Ford E450 Cab & Chassis CutawayThere are not custom bolt on hitches for this application. The variables in frame widths and custom RV bodies makes it impossible to make a hitch for each RV model. In these cases you have to use a Universal Weld-On hitch. The Curt # 15901 is one such universal hitch which is rated for Class-5 with 15,000 pounds towing capacity and 1500 pounds of tongue weight. The side brackets adjust for frames measuring 18 to 44 inches wide. Please review the attached installation instructions carefully...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver Option for Bus With 35-1/2 Inches Between C-Frame and DropWhile we have a potential option for you, the hitches that fit a 2000 Chevy Express van have mounting holes 40 inches apart, and additionally the manufacturers expressly state they do not fit the cutaway models, so you will need one of the universal options. What you may be able to use is the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop # 15901. This has brackets which are adjustable and fit frames from a minimum of 18" to a maximum of 44" and the receiver has a...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver for an RV that is Rated Higher Than 5,000 PoundsWe have a universal, weld-on trailer hitch receiver that's adjustable and rated up to 15,000 pounds. The Curt # 15901 will adjust to trailer frames between 18 to 44 inches wide. You'll want to verify the towing capacity of your RV because you will be limited by the lowest rated component and this hitch will not increase your RV's capacity.
view full answer... - Higher Capacity Hitch that Can Fit 42 inch Vehicle FrameFor a higher capacity multi fit hitch that could be used on a 42 inch wide vehicle frame we have the Curt hitch part # 15901 which would work great. This hitch has a towing capacity of 15,000 lbs and can fit frames that are between 18 inch and 44 inch so it would work great for you.
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Minnie Winnie Motorhome on 2006 Ford E-450 ChassisFor your application we're going to need to look at a universal trailer hitch as there aren't any custom fit options for a 2006 Ford E-450 Minnie Winnie motorhome. Custom hitches are pretty cut and dry as to what they fit but for a universal hitch you'll need to do a little checking on your end to make sure it will fit correctly. For example, the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch # 15901 fits vehicle frames from 18" up to about 44" and the receiver will sit 3" below the mounting...
view full answer... - Front Mount Hitch Receiver for a 2018 Chevy Express VanFor your application I recommend checking out a universal hitch receiver like the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop # 15901 as there aren't any custom fit front hitches for your 2018 Chevy Express Van. Since this is universal you'll basically be comparing this hitch to the available room on your vehicle and making sure everything matches up on your end. I'm attaching a dimensional photo of this Curt hitch for you to reference and use for checking the fitment.

- Availability of a Trailer Hitch for a 1989 Chevrolet R3500 Cab and Chassis Truck with Dump BoxAccording to my technical contact at Draw-Tite your 1989 Chevrolet R3500 cab-and-chassis with dump box has no direct-fit bolt on hitches available. However, there may be an option in a universal-fit weld on Class V hitch. Curt offers a universal-fit weld-on Class V hitch with 2-inch receiver opening an 3-inches of drop, part # 15901. This hitch fits truck frame widths between 18-inches and 43.88 inches. Installation requires welding on the side brackets to the main tube and welding the...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1997 Damon Intruder with 10,000 lb Towing CapacityWe may have something that will work for you, but keep in mind, trailer hitch manufacturers do not make custom fit hitches for RVs and motor homes. A universal hitch is used and is typically bolted or welded to the frame of the RV and in some cases the mounting brackets have to be modified. You will also have to remove the existing hitch, but I recommend holding on to the mounting brackets as templates just in case the mounting brackets for the new hitch have to be modified. I also recommend...
view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation for a Frame-Mount BusEven though I can't recommend bolting a hitch to your bumper I do have a solution for you. For your application I would recommend a universal frame mount hitch, because this type of hitch will give you a more secure connection since your type of bumper is not ideal for bolting on a hitch. These hitches weld-on to the frame of the vehicle. We offer # 15901 with 3 inch brackets and we offer # 15902 with 10 inch brackets. To choose which hitch will suit your needs you will want to measure...

- Class IV Universal Weld-On Trailer HitchThere is a Class IV universal weld-on trailer hitch available, the Buyers Products Class 4 Service Body Short Hitch Receiver # 3371801053, although the Curt # 15901 is only available as a Class V trailer hitch as there is not a Class IV version available.

I went ahead and attached a picture of the fitment of the hitch on his truck. However, I called Curt and my contact confirmed that there is no way of telling if that hitch will fit for sure on your 1992 Toyota Hilux. Also, as you can see in the attached picture, the hitch does not have the cleanest installation. With that being said, I recommend a universal...

- Hitch Recommendation for a 2022 Ram 5000 Cab/ChassisWhile we do have some great universal-fit options for your 2022 Ram 5500 4x4 cab/chassis, we do not carry any custom-fit options. With that being said, the best option is a weld-on hitch like the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop # 15901 or the Curt Class 5 Universal Weld-on Hitch w/ Brackets - 2" Receiver # 15903. The # 15901 comes with a 3" drop if you need lowered height and comes with brackets that adjust for frames between 18" to 44" wide. The # 15901...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2000 Ford E350 Van to Clear 2-3/4 Inch Bumper DropWe do have an option for your 2000 Ford E350 van, but the Draw-Tite hitch you asked about has just a 2 inch distance from the top of the frame to the receiver, so it won't clear your bumper. I checked every hitch for a 2000 Ford van, and none have the correct drop, so what you will need instead is a weld-on, heavy-duty hitch: - Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop # 15901 I added a cut out for you which shows the dimensions of the brackets as well as the...

We also offer Curt hitches # 15901 and # 15903 which are both also weld-on universal-fit types. Instructions for all items are linked for your reference.

Installation will just be a bit more involved than for a bolt-on hitch. For example, Curt offers their weld-on 2-inch Class V hitch # 15903 rated for up to 1500-lbs tongue weight and 15,000-lbs gross trailer weight.
