Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite Tested Tough

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.


etrailer.com Technical Support

At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers.

2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty

I installed this on the front of a 2018 F350. Fit an finish is great. Install was easy and directions simple to follow. Having another set of hands was very helpful, else it would be a balancing act I imagine. No drilling needed except for the cutout in the valence. My use is a cargo basket for four bikes and a kayak rack when pulling my fifth wheel. I have a receiver splitter that allows me to have both the basket and Yak rack mounted at the same time. Load up the toys and go...

Please keep in mind that the hitch has a 500 lb vertical load limit, which means that the hitch receiver tube can safely withstand a total of 500 lbs. This means that the combined weight of everything bearing down on that receiver, the bikes, the cargo tray, the splitter, the upright load bar and half the weight of the kayaks cannot exceed 500 lbs. Youll also want to make sure the splitter youre using has sufficient capacity for what youre asking it to do.



by:

After a year, I don’t know how I survived without this thing. I have had bikes, crates, and a motorcycle on my front hitch and it performed perfectly. I wish I could give it more stars.

2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty

A tight fit with the bash plates on my 2023 Ford F250. I also cut a 3 inch square air dam hole instead of 3 1/2. But had to extend the top of the hole due to the slope of the dam. The hitch pin hole barely clears the air dam. The hitch pin clip will rub on the air dam.



by:

Thank you o Arthur for his assistance with ordering and the step by step instructions made installation easy to follow.



by:
2023 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Welds appear well done, haven't installed yet. Delivery super fast, I was expecting a week and it was 3 days total. Only plan on using this to put a heavy duty bike rack.

2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Shows up with nuts and bolts sitting on the ground and was told tracking number is not applicable for a damage claim. How do I know it’s all there for install until I get started?

I will have Customer Service reach out to regarding the damage and possible missing parts.



by:

Went on easier than I thought. Had to use two hands and a knee to put it up there. No need to cut your air dam as you just cut the hole small and use a big square file to adjust the dam hole. LOL. Shipping was great just a couple of scratches on the hitch but it’s hidden. Can’t wait to go camping and mount the generator on the front rack. Thanks Carl and your team for the hitch.



by:

Pretty much a strait bolt up job. Trickiest part was cutting the plastic shroud so the hitch could be mounted just below the bumper. I use this hitch when I need exacting placement of trailers and to load extra gear on a hitch hauler on the front of my truck... I love the extra space.



by:

Exactly what i was hoping for. High quality product with easy to follow instructions and was very easy for me to install. Looks and works great. Thank you!



by:
2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty

The Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch Receiver was a perfect fit on my 2019 F-350. The instructions and the installation video made installation straight forward. It is possible to install in your driveway - just have a couple of 5 gallon buckets handy to support the receiver while you line everything up and move it into place. Also note that if your Ford has bash plates installed on the frame where the receiver is mounted you will NOT need to install the spacers provided with the receiver.



by:

Service and shipment was excellent and very much appreciated. Install was less than two hours in the driveway. Other videos were right about directions making the hole to large but other than that fairly simple install. Looking forward to putting it to use!

Its Great being able to use the front hitch for the tilt-n-go and freeing up my back hitch. Good value for money!



by:
2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty

As my normal experience with etrailer, shipping was fast and communication was great. Even an email to customer service I sent on Sunday morning, expecting an answer from someone Monday, was actually answered later that day. As with previous hitches I have ordered from etrailer the hardware was securely taped to the hitch itself - a good idea considering the boxes almost always show some damage from the delivery process. The hitch appears well made and fit as it should. The installation video on the etrailer website was very helpful (note the presenter calls it a Curt hitch, but the Draw-tite part number is displayed.) I did find it easier to wait until after the hitch was held in place with the lower fasteners before I ran the fish wires for the other two on each side. This was installed on a 2020 F250 and the skid plates (aka compatibility brackets, "Prius catchers") were left in place. Spacers were included to allow for brackets not being present.



by:
2017 Ford F-450 Super Duty

I mounted this on my F450 the day I received it. Although some of the details from your instructional install video varied for my vehicle, the advice to remove the bumper was spot-on. I thought it might be a lot of trouble to do so, but it was simple, and it allowed me easy access. I did not even have to use the wires to fish the bolts through. This receiver will be used for a big bed extender (goal post) in conjunction with a single roof rail to haul our kayaks while towing our 5th wheel. We’ve used this setup on our previous truck, an F250, for 4 years and can’t stand the thought of leaving the kayaks at home. Next up, figuring out the rail for the roof.

When the rear hitch is not available - use the front! This was perfect. Thanks!

2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Very happy with the hitch. I cut a smaller hole in the lower valance than what the directions said, 3" instead of 3 1/2".



by:
2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Received the hitch on time. Actually a day before the scheduled delivery day. UPS always delivers and the drivers are great! Installation was easy once I I figured out how to use the fish wires. It is installed and I use it with a bicycle rack, luggage basket, and pushing a hay wagon into the barn is so simple rather than backing.

2019 Ford F-150

I have always wanted a front hitch. While buying a new 2019 F-250 i found etrailer ordered my first front hitch. 25 minute easy install. Did not realize how much i would use it. I find moving my 30ft boat around at the house, the front hitch is the best way. A friend bought a new boat. We both tryed to parkin the spot he wanted it with his truck. Could not get it in. I hooked up to the boat with my front hitch and one shot it was in. He now has a etrailer front hitch on his F-150. We both love the front hitch.

Very happy with the fit and function. Install was very straightforward

  • Will the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver 65076 Fit a 2020 Ford F-350
    Yes, the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65076 is a custom bolt-on/drill-free fit for a 2020 Ford F-350.

  • Will the EcoHitch Front Hitch Fit a 2021 Ford F-250 with Adaptive Cruise Control
    I can confirm that both the Draw-Tite # 65076 and Curt # C31078 front hitches are fully compatible with the adaptive cruise control on the 2021 Ford F-250; we have not confirmed that this is also the case with the EcoHitch # 306-X7904. Judging from what I've seen with some other folks that have installed this it looks like the adaptive cruise control sensor installs over the front hitch, so you should not have any issues. I've also attached a photo to show how it mounts.

    Both of the front mounted hitches you referenced, Draw-Tite # 65076 and Curt # C31078 are confirmed fits for all models of the 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty. They will not interfere with your axles; you can check out how each looks in the photos I've attached for you.

  • Front Mounted Receiver Fit for 2021 Ford F-350 Super-Duty Pickup
    According to Torklift, their # 306-X7904 EcoHitch front mounted receiver fits all models of the 2021 Ford F350, including Dual Rear Wheel models. The Curt # C31078 and Draw-Tite # 65076 fits single rear wheel models only, and are quite a bit less expensive than the EcoHitch model. If you have a single rear wheel model, I'd recommend the Curt # C31078 because the hitch is manufactured in the US and because Curt does a slightly nicer job with their powder coat finish in my opinion.

    If you don't want your ground clearance/approach angle compromised at the front of the vehicle, the EcoHitch # 306-X7904 would certainly be the way to go. The hitch installs so the receiver tube will sit behind the front licence plate. The hitch includes a license plate bracket that would install into the receiver opening so you could continue to display the front plate if your state requires one. I've edited a photo showing how the EcoHitch and the Draw-Tite # 65076 front mount receivers...

  • Front Receiver Fit for 2021 Ford F350 Diesel Dually
    According to Curt, their # C31078 won't fit DRW models of the 2021 F350 because all DRW models are equipped with the Diesel engine. The intercooler and associated plumbing will physically prevent the hitch from being installed. For the 2018 and 2019 model year, the hitch fit all models of the F250, F350 and F450 but changes for the 2010 model year changed the fit. The same would hold true for the Draw-Tite # 65076.

  • Bumper Removal to Install EcoHitch 306-X7904 on 2019 Ford F-350?
    Because the receiver is tucked up behind where the front license plate sits for a clean look and additional ground clearance, you would indeed need to temporarily remove the bumper to install the # 306-X7904 on your 2019 Ford F350. If you'd rather not do that, the Draw-Tite # 65076 installs a bit more conventionally, below the bumper. This makes for an easier installation, but would require cutting a hole in the under bumper trim (if so equipped) and would reduce the ground clearance, so...

  • Can Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Work on a Front Mount Hitch
    It sher will! The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22G measures 7-1/2" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack when it's folded up which, according to my information, will still be plenty of room in regards to the location of a front mount hitch. If you don't already have a front mount hitch on your 2021 Ford F-350 Super Duty I recommend going with the Draw-Tite # 65076. This requires you to cut a hole in the front fascia but this means you won't be losing any ground...

I have attached a picture of the Curt showing this. Also the Curt is made in the USA. Regarding the Tremor package you will note that the air dam is very short in height compared to the other F-250 trim levels.

  • Will Using a Reducer Sleeve in Factory 2-1/2 Inch Hitch Reduce Towing Capacity of 2017 Ford F-250
    Whether or not the capacity drops when using a reducer sleeve is something that the hitch manufacturer or Ford would have to tell you. I know that in some applications it does reduce the towing capacity and in others it does not. It probably would be easiest to go with a 2 inch hitch in the front, # 65076, and the 2-1/2 at the back like you said.
