Expert Answers about Toyota Sienna


  • Comparing Trailer Hitch Options for 2020 Toyota Sienna
  • There are a handful of trailer hitches that fit your 2020 Toyota Sienna and they can be broken down into a few categories. Since you are wanting to use a 4-bike rack you need at least a 2" Class III receiver so you are just looking at visible crosstubes and concealed crosstubes. The visible crosstubes include the Draw-Tite # 75237, Curt # C13105, and etrailer.com # e98837 while the concealed options include Draw-Tite # 76112, Curt # C13343, and etrailer.com # e98853. I recommend the etrailer.com...

  • Comparing Curt and etrailer Hitches for a 2024 Toyota Sienna
  • Both the Curt # C22UR and the etrailer # e56RR trailer hitches are excellent options for your 2024 Toyota Sienna, but I actually like the etrailer option a little more and not just because it has our branding. The etrailer hitch has a matte black finish which serves a dual purpose; it looks better than the classic glossy black we see on the Curt and it does a much better job at hiding any scratches from road debris. So we get better looks and durability out of that coating. Attached is...

  • Comparing Trailer Hitch Receiver Options For 2021 Toyota Sienna
  • There are a pair of trailer hitch receivers that fit your 2021 Toyota Sienna, from Curt and Draw-Tite, and they are the following part numbers: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR - Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT55MR There are two main differences between the two, which are the finishes and the tongue weight capacity. The Curt hitch has a powder coat which is a bit glossier than the Draw-Tite, and the Draw-Tite has a higher tongue weight capacity of 675 lbs vs. 350...

  • Which Trailer Hitch Has the Most Ground Clearance for a 2006 Toyota Sienna
  • All of the trailer hitches for your 2006 Toyota Sienna are going to sit in the same area. You'll get slightly better ground clearance from a hitch with an 1-1/4" receiver and when the installed the Curt # C12065 and Draw-Tite # 36513 Class II hitches on the same model year Sienna the difference in height was 1/8" and that small of a difference could honestly be contributed to ground the measurement was taken on or even the amount of pressure in the tires at time. With all of that being...

The Pro Series has 2-1/2-inches of rise in the shank while the Curt has 3 inches of rise. Also the Curt carrier has the ability to adjust the placement of the carrier basket on the shank and includes the required hitch pin and clip, while the Pro Series does not. You can use part # PC3 or a locking anti-rattle hitch pin such as # 63232. The Pro...

  • Difference Between Trailer Hitches for 2020 Toyota Sienna
  • That's a good question and there is one significant difference between all the trailer hitches that fit your 2020 Toyota Sienna, which is the visibility of the crosstube. The best, most high-quality trailer hitches are from Draw-Tite, so we will use two of their hitches that fit a 2020 Sienna as an example. The Draw-Tite # 76112 has a concealed crosstube while the Draw-Tite # 75237 has a visible crosstube; you can see the difference in the accompanying photo. The capacities of the hitches...

  • Which Hitch For 2013 Toyota Sienna Provides Most Ground Clearance and the Least Underpanel Trimming
  • The Hidden Hitch Class III, part # 87586 and the Draw-Tite # 75696 are both made by the same parent company and are virtually identical, so they will install in the same manner. When installed, either of these hitches will have approximately 10 inches of ground clearance under the bottom of the receiver tube. The Curt Class III, part # C13105 will have about 9 inches of clearance under the receiver tube. I'll link you to the instructions and install videos for each of the hitches. As you...

  • Differences Between Curt Hitch # C13105 and Hidden Hitch # 87415 for a 2008 Toyota Sienna
  • As far as installation and strength are concerned, the two hitches are actually very similar. Both install in the same location and mounting holes on the vehicle, and both are rated to tow up to 3500lbs. Both hitches will also have a similar ground clearance, because they both would feature the entire cross tube running below the vehicle bumper once installed. The main difference in this case would really be aesthetics. The Curt hitch # C13105 is angled slightly near the ends, so it...

  • Comparing etrailer e56RR and Curt C22UR Trailer Hitch Receivers For a 2021 Toyota Sienna
  • The only difference between the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR and Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR is going to be the powder coating used. The etrailer receiver will have a matte black powder coat while the Curt will have a gloss black powder coat. Since etrailer's receivers are made by Curt the mounting points and material used is all the same and they are both made here in the USA. Personally I prefer our etrailer receiver as I find the matte black powder coating is more...

  • Differences Between Titan Snow Cables and Glacier Snow Cables 2009 Toyota Sienna
  • According to your owner's manual, tire chains/cables are only to be used on the front two wheels and must be Class S compatible. For your 2009 Toyota Sienna we have both Titan part # TC1038 and Glacier part # PW1038 cable options. Both cables are similar in design with a few key differences. The Glacier cables have an included 90 day warranty whereas, the Titan cables only have a 30 day warranty. I recommend going with the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains part # PW1038 for this reasons....

  • Curt vs etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2023 Chevy Blazer
  • The only difference between the Curt and etrailer trailer hitches that fit your 2023 Chevy Blazer is the finish. The Curt has a glossier finish than the matte black finish of the etrailer hitch, so you can choose which you prefer. The hitches that fit your '23 Blazer are the following part numbers: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e36YR - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13418 The matte black finish is nice as it hides the inevitable dings, scuffs and scratches better than the glossy...

  • Differences Between Class II and III Hitches for 2012 Toyota Sienna
  • The primary differences between the 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch receiver are the size and the capacity. The Class III hitches for your Sienna have a 3500 lb towing/ 350 lb tongue weight capacity. The Class II hitches have the same towing capacity, but a lower tongue weight capacity, at 300 lbs. We usually recommend going with the Class III if the choice is available. The 2 inch receiver opening used by the Class III hitch is more common, and therefore there is a better selection of hitch mounted...

  • Comparing Receiver Heights For Draw-Tite Receivers # 76112 and # 75237
  • We were able to install both the Draw-Tite Receivers # 76112 & # 75237 on a 2017 Toyota Sienna in our shop. Both receivers were fitted to the same vehicle and we found the Receiver # 76112 to have a receiver height of 12" while the Receiver # 75237 to have a receiver height of 11-1/2". So the Receiver # 76112 will give you the best ground clearance and you will not have the visible cross tube which also hangs down across your Sienna.

  • Difference between Tekonsha T-One and Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness for 2007 Toyota Sienna
  • The Tekonsha T-One # 118304 and Curt T-Connector # C55580 Vehicle Wiring Harnesses are very similar. These are both custom fit wiring harnesses that include a tail light converter, which is required for your 2007 Toyota Sienna because the brake and turn signal wires on this vehicle are separate. The converter is needed to combine the two functions to be compatible with the trailer wiring system. The Curt # C55580 does have higher maximum amperage for the stop/turn and tail lights and is...

  • Does 2023 Toyota Sienna etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Sit Below Bumper
  • The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR will be visible under the bumper of your 2023 Toyota Sienna, so you will have a lower clearance at the back of your van. I definitely see how this would be an issue so you'll need to be careful going over speed bumps and you'll need to take steep turns at more of an angle (like when entering or exiting a driveway). If you don't already have a bike rack then I recommend checking out the Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT because it can carry up to...

  • Draw-Tite or etrailer Hitch for 2024 Toyota Sienna
  • Between the etrailer # e56RR and Draw-Tite # DT55MR for your 2024 Sienna I would choose the etrailer hitch. The only major differences between the two hitches are the capacity and the powder coat finish. It is true that the Draw-Tite has a higher capacity, but it in this case it isn't important. Towing capacity for your Sienna tops out at 3,500 so anything above that isn't necessary. The Draw-Tite has a glossy finish while the etrailer hitch has a unique matte black finish. The matte...

  • What Is The Difference Between The Curt & etrailer Trailer Hitch Receivers For a 2023 Toyota Sienna?
  • The only difference between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR and our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR is the powder coat finish. We selected Curt to manufacturer our receivers as they are made in the USA and have a great reputation for quality receivers. The Curt will have a gloss black finish while our etrailer receiver has a matte black finish. Personally I prefer the matte black finish as it matches well with most factory trim giving it an OE appearance.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2021 Toyota Sienna XSE Hybrid With Hands Free Lift Gate
  • For your 2021 Toyota Sienna XSE Hybrid, I recommend going with the American made Curt # C22UR. Your Sienna Hybrid is rated up to 3,500 pounds towing and 350 pounds of tongue weight capacity, at least that I could find, so the Draw-Tite # DT55MR with its higher weight capacities isn't really needed in this case. The Curt hitch, as with the Draw-Tite, will limit the use of the hands free lift gate sensor to either side of the receiver opening, but it will not negate its use. Just as a side...
