Fully welded vehicle trailer hitch is strong and durable. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. The combination of an e-coat base and a powder coat finish provides excellent rust protection.
Features:
Specs:
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.
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. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.

Fully welded vehicle trailer hitch is strong and durable. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. The combination of an e-coat base and a powder coat finish provides excellent rust protection.Not only the best price I could find but the hitch was a perfect fit!! Only took 20 mins to install it with 4 bolts and it looks good. My dog also enjoyed the box. Lol
I got the hitch and the wiring connector in fast and I was able to install the hitch and the wiring connector in less than 30 minutes. The instructions were simple and so was the installation. I only bought these because of the great videos on etrailer.com. I wouldn't have thought it would have been as easy otherwise. I used my floor jack to place the hitch up in place and it fit perfectly. I torqued down the bolts per the instructions and the wiring was a breeze too. I did it on my own and easily and quickly. Mine was a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, not sure how other models will compare. Great price, hitch and quick delivery.

Thanks. I couldnt be happier with my hitch and light hook-up a year later. I use them pretty often.
I ordered this hitch and wire harness on a Tuesday and received it on Friday afternoon. etrailer does not sit on the orders, your products are shipped exactly as stated. I am very pleased with the timely delivery of the products, more importantly the kind and capable staff. The hitch and wire harness took about twenty minutes to install. I am enjoying the freedom of hauling exactly what I need or want to at any time. Fantastic products! Thank you etrailer, Draw-Tite and Hopkins for providing excellent service and products.
Thank you

Awesome
Excellent! the product is very well constructed. I installed the trailer hitch with the Curt T connector (wiring harness). The installation took approximately 1/2 hour. Easy install. A special mention for Tommy C., he couldn't be more helpful. walked me through the whole process, answered all my questions and processed me rather quickly. I will definitely being coming back for future products. Well Made, Affordable Prices!

Love the product - good quality - would recommend this product to anyone in the market for a well made hitch.
Easy Installation to a great looking finish.
Glad I took the time to research the vehicle specific photos and videos on the site.
I almost bought a tubular model hitch that would have hung lower and been highly visible.
This Draw-tite square frame model hides behind the bumper nicely.
Used a jack to make it a one-man job. Very happy with the look and the service. Parts arrived 3 days early with great email communication. Thanks etrailer.

excellent. Towed cars and a bike rack.
2011 Jeep GC- Installed with ease! Looks great! My GC had the trailer wiring under the bumper so I purchased the 7 pin / 4 pin connector and it was plug and play. Finished with a Jeep OEM cover. Thanks etrailer!

Looks great. I have the same hitch for my Jeep GC and Im looking to add the trailer connectors. Where did you get the 4 to 7 pin connector and do you have the part number? Thanks! James in Milwaukee.

The hitch was very easy to install. It was so easy in fact, that I installed it myself. I used a plastic bin to help prop the receiver and keep it elevated while I installed the bolts. The bolts on my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee took 21MM socket. There were 4 bolts that took a bit of elbow grease to loosen. I then used a torque wrench and tightened the bolts to 115 foot pounds as specified in the directions. It took about 15 minutes. I plan on using the hitch receiver with a bike rack. Specifically this one: http://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Bike-Racks/Highland/1370400.html
Great product and great price. Very well-made and extremely easy to install. The whole experience was amazing, from the purchase to the installation. I can’t wait to start towing my boat. I highly recommend using etrailer.
The fit was perfect! I had to cut away some caulk as you mentioned but that was a simple task. I think I had this installed in 15 minutes. I would recommend this brand of hitch for others interested in A simple and easy install. It’s tucked up under the jeep and all that you see from the rear is the receiver which is what I wanted. Very happy with the quality and the price. Great value.
I've installed a number of Curt hitches and they are excellent.
Easy to install hitch receiver, 4 bolts and done. Took longer to gather my tools than to install it. 4 stars because it came scratched, arrived fast, looks great too.
This is my second Etrailer hitch. I recently traded in my vehicle and needed a hitch for my new vehicle. Etrailer always has a good selection and prices. They are also available to answer questions if you’re not sure what you need.
This hitch was simple to install on my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It mated right up to the bolts that were already installed on the vehicle. The fit was perfect and the powerdercoat and welding was all top-notch. I really like that they also included the tab to attach a wiring harness bracket. I ordered the Tow-Ready 4-pole bracket kit at the same time and it fit great on the tab.
This hitch fits great on the Jeep too. The hitch is nearly invisible aside from the receiver itself. I also like that the receiver sits back underneath the bumper so its unlikely that I will smash my shins on it when loading or unloading cargo.
The only minor issue I encountered during installation was some thick seam-sealer on the vehicle body keeping the aft holes from aligning. It was just think enough to prevent the hitch frame from sitting all the way up between the frame rails. I solved this by putting my hydraulic floor jack under the hitch and pressing it up just a few millimeters. This brought the mounting holes into alignment and the bolts then went right in.
Being an older Jeep, in New England (salty winters) I was concerned that the factory bolts might be stuck, but they came out without a fight. I sprayed them with some penetrating oil and let them soak overnight before doing my install so that may have helped some.
Very easy to install 2017 Grand Cherokee. Literally 4 bolts. Also purchased a wiring adapter that you can see in pics that has 4 and 7 pin all in one. Both from Draw-Tight so the hitch had an adapter plate for wiring adapter just had to screw together. My only complaint was I did have to return a different hitch because of poor packaging and damage during shipping but this one came in way better condition.
Is what was expected, however, the package was pretty beaten up on arrival.
The components were all still there….but, was plenty of opportunity for things to have gone missing.
Not as much a reflection on etrailer as UPS.
However feedback on the packaging may help improve this

Everything including the hitch and bike rack have been great. Easy to install and has received lots of use.
Super easy to install. This is a must have as far as I am concerned. Great job of manufacturing. I would highly recommend this hitch.
Bought the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Class III 2" hitch receiver for a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Quality is well built and was properly packaged for transportation. It took me approximately 15 mins to install (remove, tighten and torque 4 factory bolts). Delivery was spot on with the provided ETA. This will be the second time I order a hitch through eTrailer. eTrailer provided the lowest cost (product + shipping) compared to many others online. Will definitely shop and order with eTrailer again.
Great product and installation videos. It all went as shown in the videos. I did it myself without a lift. Used something to support the hitch then lifted one side at a time to fit bolts loosely in place then tighten all four. Will have my mechanic torque bolts to 115 lb. Connector socket with bracket installed exactly as in video, but I didn't have socket for drill to start self tapping screws, so I drilled holes slightly bigger to start them. Worked great after with ratchet. Connected trailer...lights not working...so I guess I need to make a trip to the Jeep dealer to re-flash computer, whatever that means. I'm 72 and did it myself. I've purchased lots of so called bolt on parts. This is truly an easy bolt on part. Couldn't be more satisfied.

I pull my trailer to many art festivals and hitch is as secure as ever. I keep the plug waterproofed with Dielectric contact grease.
Bought this as a Christmas for my boyfriend - he loves it! Was very easy for him to install himself. Used it all year towing our boat and utility trailer and it handles like a champ. He loves how when the hitch isn’t on it is tucked away under the truck, but he had to get an extender for it so it doesn’t scratch his bumper. Overall, he loved it so much he bought one for his brother this year for Christmas

Still works as well as the day it was installed!
If I can install this, anyone can. It was so easy. I think it took me longer to take it out of the box. It took me not even 20 min to install by myself. Solid constructed hitch. Came with instructions. I have a 2020 grand Cherokee altitude and the tire iron fit the bolts for the hitch. So if you do not have a 21mm socket use that.

Since I had the hitch I sold my Jeep and bought a new one. Took off the hitch and reinstalled to new Jeep. Super easy. Works great. Only issue is that the paint in the front of the hitch has chipped a little showing some rust. Other than that it is great.
The hitch itself is great, but the box was destroyed on arrival and the product was scratched and scuffed. A little more padding would have gone a long way.
Excellent product, fit perfectly and is hidden very well, 10 minute install, Carla and etrailer provided fantastic customer service and hitch was delivered earlier than expected. Would definitely make another purchase from etrailer.

Still a fantastic hitch, no problems after one year of use!
Bolted right on without any modifications to the vehicle. Nice fit and finish, haven't had a chance to put anything heavier than a bike rack on it but it looks like it is super secure and heavy duty enough to make the towing claims believable. Literally took 15 minutes to bolt on and most of that time was looking for my SAE sockets.

Still rock solid and looks like the day it was bolted on.
Every part of this job was easy . From ordering on etrailer website, to doing the actual job with the help of etrailer help videos.

Hitch is working out great so far! I have used it with luggage rack, bike rack, and 5x8 flatbed trailer for some off grid camping. No issues so far.
