Specs:
Specifically designed for a serious towing machine, this rugged trailer hitch receiver features the strong, durable construction that your heavy-duty applications require. The secure side-bracket design and all-frame attachment system ensure maximum stability. The cast center section lets you pile on the tongue weight without any worries. And the reinforced pin hole and large safety-chain loops better accommodate your heavy-duty towing needs.
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real-life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

Ideal for heavy-duty towing, this vehicle trailer hitch has a cast steel center that is designed to handle hefty tongue weights. Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this durable, corrosion-resistant hitch exceeds industry standards.the hitch I purchased is a high quality unit, easy to install and fits as expected. We use the hitch for towing, but it doubles as a location to mount my hoyer lift that puts me in my cyclekart!
It is well built and installed nicely. I was not expecting it to stick out as far as it does. The installation video shows it more recessed under the bumper allowing for room to mount trailer light connections.
We installed this on our E150 campervan so we could haul extra cargo or a bike rack. It's definitely more hitch than we need since we're not towing anything (yet). We landed on this particular hitch because the price wasn't much different than the lower-class models, and - the big selling point - this one didn't require any frame drilling for installation.
Speaking of, installation was straightforward and easy to understand. I managed to install it by myself, though as with any hitch it would be easier with an extra set of hands. I used a jack stand to hold the other side of the hitch in place.
The hitch is ridiculously strong and I would have no reservations about hauling some serious weight if I had an accessory that fit snugly in the receiver.
The only complaint I have is that the receiver has too much play. It's listed as a 2" receiver, but both of the 2" accessories I use (and several others I tried at the store) have a lot of "slop" as the opening actually measures something like 2-3/16". (See photo) Adding the bolt to secure the hitch in the receiver steadies lightweight loads, but I would be concerned that the stress of a heavy load would be too much for that connection point.
Even with one spacer hole to small that I had to drill out, this was an extremely easy install and appears to be a very sturdy heavy duty hitch. The price was good with free shipping. I’m pleased with my purchase.
It mounted up without a hitch! Haha. Super easy mounting and I have hauled 2-1/2 yard concrete trailer and hay wagon and excavator behind my van thus far and I have zero issues. I had to modify my electrical connection bracket but to me that kind of thing can be expected
Went on easy, perfect fit, did it by myself with the help of a hydrolic jack to hold it up. Took about twenty minutes. Customer service was quick to respond for getting feedback, very appreciated! Review pictures of install helped make my decision, and a great price also. Made in Mexico, however, hopefully will be made in USA soon.
Jay was great and helped me get teh right hitch and e-brake for my Ford E350 Bus which is an unusual vehicle. The Shipment was quick and free. I can't wait to install everything.
Product went on as described in the video. Did struggle a bit to get the socket on the nut with the way the crossbar fits through the weld. Other than that I don’t know why I put it off as long as I did.
I received my hitch when they said it would be there. The over condition of the product is excellent,and the installation instructions are very easy to follow. I had the hitch installed in less then 30 mins. I highly recommend etrailer for all your towing ,and hauling needs. Fair prices and great customer service.
Simple installation by myself. No drilling required was my biggest need,as I didn't feel like dropping $20 on drill bits to get through hardened steel. Took 15 or twenty minutes to get it all bolted up.
I recently bought a Ford E350 van for towing and camping. I needed to install a trailer hitch.
I shopped [another online retailer] as well as local RV stores and then remembered etrailer. I found the hitch I needed at the lowest price and as luck would have it, a Sunday free shipping offer. The hitch arrived quickly and fit perfectly.
Another good experience with etrailer.
The only issues I had with hitch was sticker location on hitch was hard to read as was placed in wrong location. Once hitch is installed, you cannot read load rating decal The kit could use a few m5ore shim washers.
I have been doing business with etrailer for almost 10 years, for my personal and work related needs. Always received quality products at a reasonable price with great customer service. The hitch receiver I installed today took almost an hour to install, the instructions included were straight forward and NO drilling, a plus, packed well with all the hardware needed for the install.
I'm very happy with the entire etrailer experience. From web site ordering, price, installation, everything went smoothly. No missing parts. Easy to follow instructions. Couldn't ask for more. The Ultra Frame Draw-Tite hitch is built like a rock too.
I received my hitch really fast after ordering!!! I was notified it's location while it was in route. This hitch is extremely well made. And bolted right up to the factory holes in the frame(NO DRILLING!!) Very easy installation. I highly recommend this hitch! A++++
Awesome!! It fits perfect it came with everything is needed for the installation super easy to install. Thanks etrailer.
The hitch fit perfectly and left just enough clearance for the spare tire. My only problem was that one of the locking nuts came without threads. I could not get the same nut so had to purchase an SAE bolt, flat washer, locking washer and nut.
Great quality. Problem free installation
On 2005 E350 Super Duty van.
High quality, brand name product. Hitch and wiring harness were easy install.
Customer service second to none!
Excellent quality. Fast shipping. Exactly what I wanted. Beefy construction and rated far above any trailer weight I will ever haul (just the way I like it). Eat your "Wheaties" boys, before you install this beast. Very heavy with cast iron receiver. You won't be disappointed.
I bought this for one of my work trucks and it fit as it should and works fine. I have bought several items from etrailer and the service and products have all been top notch!
I am really impressed with how easy this hitch was to install, finished the job by myself in around 45 minutes! Now for some wiring, and I am ready for my first trip, thanks Etrailer!
Love the hitch and installation was perfect. Hate the drag chain attachments. It appears impossible to attach a 10,000 lb. rated chain hook.
Does what it was meant to do.
A little hard to mount.
Your going to need a heavy duty torque wrench.
Very happy with it
First of all let me mention that this is third hitch I have purchased in past two years and I'm always impressed with customers service and fast shipping. The quality of the last one was little bit less than I was expecting. The coating was chipped on multiple places before I installed it and it was not due shipping. The box is in excellent condition. Attached are few pictures.
