Guys, I can't get past the horribly bad packaging for this shipment. I was away when this arrived at my house. My neighbor was kind enough to put the box in my garage. He sent pics showing the horrible condition of the box and that the trailer hitch had poked out of several areas. I have yet to open it, but have to assume the contents are damaged and may have some parts or hardware missing. THE BOX THIS WAS SHIPPED IN WAS NOWHERE NEAR BEING UP TO THE TASK!!!!

this bracket holds the flat plug exactly as it should and it mounted to the supplied bracket on the hitch
by: Steve03/25/2024
I am unable to use this bracket at this time due to a back ordered item I have been waiting on from etrailer for a month now. Hard to believe etrailer can not source a receiver and a wire bundle for a month. I'll probably return the bracket since I can't get the hitch I ordered from etrailer.
Thanks
by: Ted 04/10/2024
etrailer.com is consistently awesome! Not only do they have the parts I want at prices I feel are fair, but they've got a ton of great review and installation videos that are super helpful.
by: Bob04/23/2024
Great products. Good installation instructions. Wiring was plug and play.
I wish you had a bracket to hold the C42CR on top of the receiver like the one I built from 1/2” flat stock. See below.
by: John N03/08/2024
It's worth the money to purchase this when installing the receiver. It gives the receiver a clean look! No hanging wire harness! Thanks again Etrailer!
by: TJ01/10/2024
Item #C42CR was not in the delivery package. It has not been received.
The hitch was received in good order and was installed as hoped. I am extremely pleased with the tow hitch. I highly recommend it.

Great to hear that about the hitch! I will have our customer service team reach out to you about the missing bracket.
by: William 03/10/2024
Was advise the originally ordered part was on back order, switched to this item per etrailer recommendations. arrived very quick, and went together as advertized. What a GREAT bunch you have there. thanks for looking out for me, and ps I saved some money using the recommended replacement.
GOOD JOB!!

This is not the first time I have purchased from etrailer.com and I strongly suspect that it will not be the last. I have found that they have great products, reasonable prices, ship promptly, keep you informed of how your order is progressing and stand behind their products.
by: James04/07/2024
Was easy to install and it made for a neat install for my trailer wiring hookup.
by: Joel03/06/2024
All items were in same box with the tail lights loose in the box. Gladly the lights were not damaged. I'm hoping this way of shipping is not typical for trailer. Thanks
by: Stephen03/14/2024
Great product. Right price, fast delivery, and quick response time. Thank you.
by: Peter10/16/2023
Follow the great video that is available thru etrailer website and you will not have any install issues..purchase the wiring kit and bracket and the install will go as planned. The products are built to last and fit is perfect..
READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS before install...
by: Salvatore 02/03/2024
It doesn’t come With the self driving screws, but the bracket was perfect for what I needed. Fortunately I had some self driving bolts that worked perfectly. I believe 7/16 or 3/8 was the size of the self driving bolts that I used
by: Eric02/01/2024
No mounting hardware included with this product. I have to go to ACE to purchase the mounting screws, washers and nuts.
by: Adam01/02/2024
The etrailer components and install guide worked perfectly. Saved me hundreds from local retailers.

Hot trash. Absolutely does not fit the 4 pin y'all sold me. Shameful.

I hate to hear that it is not fitting. I want to help and I have a question for you. Is it that the bracket is too small or too big? If the bracket is too big, you can use electrical tape to thicken the four way connector to help it stay in. Or if it is too small then I recommend using a different bracket such as part # HM48595 to hold the 4 way in place. It is also made by Hopkins so it will fit.
by: Christopher10/28/2023
This mounting bracket is great for securing the flat 4-wire connector. It looks very factory!
by: Javi12/17/2020
Easy and simple. Only gave 4 stars because item did not come with mounting bolts. Easy fix with bolts I had on hand. No drilling required because it was compatible with the Draw Tite Class III (76034) I also purchased from etrailer.

No issues since the day I mounted it.
by: Robert 09/22/2023
I'm going to tap two screw holes in beam and attach curt mounting bracket. It would be nice if the holes were included with the trailer hitch.
by: Thomas 08/17/2023
Worked great I ordered the universal mount for it also, but did not use it. I put the Draw Tite undermount hitch on Grand Cherokee last year and didn't realize it had the mount welded on it. Advice check yours before ordering.
by: TAV10/17/2023
A strong and versatile bracket to mount a 4 prong trailer connector.
Quick and easy online ordering.

I WAS GOING TO GET A HITCH FROM ANOTHER COMPANY THAT SELLS AND INSTALLS HITCHS [AND RENT TRUCKS AND TRAILERS]. THEY MADE IT SEEM THAT IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO MYSELF, AND THEN I DID SOME LOOKING ON YOUR WEBSITE, AND WATCHED YOUR VIDEO. YOU SHOWED STEP BY STEP ON WHAT DO. TOLD ME TO LOOK FOR WIREING HARNESS THAT HAD A PLUG TO PLUG YOUR WIRE TO. EVERTHING WAS JUST AS HE SAID, IT TOOK ME 1 HOUR TO INSTALL HITCH AND WIRE HARNESS, SAVED ME AROUND $[XX], THANK AGAIN.

- 2017 Toyota RAV4 Trailer Hitch and Wiring RecommendationsOf course! I recommend using the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76134 and the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56350 for your 2017 Toyota RAV4. The Draw-Tite has a hidden crosstube and is a very reliable trailer hitch while the Curt T-Connector tees in behind your tail lights and draws power directly from your vehicle battery with the included black wire to keep your OEM wring safe. I also recommend picking up the Mounting Brackets # C42CR and # C57202 so your...

view full answer... - What is the Best Hitch for a 2024 Hyundai Tucson?The best hitch for a 2024 Hyundai Tucson is the etrailer Hitch item # e38KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Tucson with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver, that has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity and a 525 lbs maximum tongue weight. This is the highest capacity hitch available for your Hyundai. The reason this is the best hitch is because the entire crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper cover.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Wiring Fitment for a 2023 Ford ExplorerThe Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU78FR does fit your 2023 Ford Explorer XLT, yes. For trailer wiring I recommend picking up the Tekonsha T-One # 118599 and using the Mounting Brackets # C42CR and # C57202 to secure the 4-Way wiring next to your hitch receiver for easy access. The trailer hitch will take about an hour and ten minutes to install for the average DIYer and the 4-Way wiring will be about the same. You can count on less time if you've done these types of installs before,...

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring for 1990 Toyota Land CruiserI do have a solution, but there are no custom fit hitches for a 1990 Toyota Land Cruiser. What you can use is a universal hitch like the Draw-Tite # 41990-07. This is a weld-on hitch so you will need to take it to a certified welder for installation. I know you asked for a Class III but it won't hurt to have the higher hitch capacity since you will be limited by your vehicle capacity. You will also need a universal wiring kit for the 4-way. The Curt # C59236 comes with everything you need...
