Perfect for my Honda Fit as it has a low carriage, the Euro shape gave me a few extra inches to tow a small trailer across the country from Oregon to North Carolina with no issues.



by:

Love this hitch. It looks and fits my Optima perfectly. I was really pleased to find a modern looking hitch to fit on my car. Very strong, solid construction. I don't plan to pull a large trailer with my car but this will work perfectly for my utility trailer. Very friendly and helpful customer service and it was delivered faster than I hoped for. Extremely pleased. Thanks...



by:

I dig the sleekness of the euro style ball mount. Works great.



by:

This trailer drawbar with the ball was just the right height and extension for the trailer. I am glad I got the one piece drawbar it is easy to store in the compartment with the spare tire. It is very tight when you first get it so you will need to tap it in out a few times with some spray lube to loosen it up. After that, it goes in and out by hand easily. It does come with the pin.

After a year of using the trailer drawbar wball on several trips, including a 2,600 mile trip, it is working great. Have not had any issues with it. I dont leave it in when not using it so it still slides in and out easily.



by:

This is a great trailer hitch ball. I like the way it projects out from the car and sits up a bit. It is easy to attach and remove (I don't leave it on the car all the time, just when pulling a trailer).



by:

It arrived in perfect condition and was exactly what I’d hoped for… except: I had expected it to include a retaining pin and clevis pin. Fortunately I had those missing pieces from a previous purchase.



by:

The Euro style ball really isn’t a good fit for European bike rack. Very loose so the rack sways as you travel down the autobahns,

While hitch accessories like ball mounts are designed to be snug inside the receiver sometimes they can be a little loose. It could be that the ball mount specs are a little small or that the hitch receiver opening is a little bigger. We recommending using an anti-rattle device such as part # RM-061-125 to help minimize movement of the ball mount.

beautiful shape ;)

It's easy to use , to put on and off.

WHEN I ORIGINALLY INSTALLED MY HITCH ON MY CX3 AWD I HAD THIS EUROPEAN BALL. I KEPT IT WHERE MY SPARE TIRE RESIDES. I TOOK MY CX3 IN FOR MY FIRST SERVICE AT MAZDA. THE SERVICE INCLUDED WHEEL ROTATION. I HAD THE WHEEL LOCK KEY IN MY SPARE TIRE AREA. IT'S BEEN ABOUT A MONTH, AND MY NEED TO USE MY TRAILER AROSE AND TO MY SURPRISE THE BALL WAS GONE. I RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE TO REMOVE YOUR BALL WHEN GETTING SERVICE. IT IS UNIQUE IN IT'S DESIGN WHICH I GUESS MAKES IT DESIREABLE TO THIEVES. THIS BALL IS A REPLACEMENT AND WORKS GREAT AS DID THE OTHER ONE. I AM GOING TO WRITE THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS AND WHILE I AM NOT ACCUSING THEM DIRECTLY, I AM MAKING THEM AWARE OF THE SITUATION. THIS IS TO PROTECT OTHER FOLKS WHO MAY EXPERIENCE MISSING ITEMS. I FEEL THAT IF I DO NOT INFORM THEM OF THIS, THEN I AM PART OF THE PROBLEM.



by:

Have I actually used the hitch and draw bar much in the past year? Not really, but when I do, I have complete confidence in the hardware and the wiring supplied by etrailer.com.



by:

I ordered both a Curtis trailer hitch and a Curtis drawbar from etrailer. The hitch I had shipped directly to my mechanic who reported that the fit was perfect and the installation very straight forward. The drawbar was shipped to my house promptly and although I haven't used it yet I forsee no problems.



by:

This review is really on the outstanding customer service provided by etrailer.com. This is he first time I have ordered from them and was very impressed. I ordered a hitch for my car. Placed the order Saturday night and by Tuesday it was delivered.



by:

Outstanding product and I couldn't be happier with the trailer hitch assembly! It installed exactly as advertised and at 60 years old I found it easy!



by:

Order was shipped promptly and correct. Products were exactly as described. I will use etrailer again in the future.



by:

Nice product, would rather use this compared to a traditional ball mount and ball. Looks sleek, has more clearance, uses a solid shank, and I'm less likely to hit a shin, because I wrapped the shaft in foam pad.



by:

Product is very sturdy, and exactly as advertised. Worked with the trailer receiver I purchased on etrailer. No issues.



by:

great fit just what I needed good solid hitch thank you for shipping to APO address



by:

Works just fine. No problems. Almost perfect height when attaching a small 5X8 trailer to an Mazda MPV.



by:

Great product, just what i needed for my Subaru Outback , the 4-5/8" rise was just right to level my trailer. Thank you ! E trailer, Good doing business with you !



by:

Have not installed as of yet but etrailer.com was fast on delivery even in difficult times, I will shop here again.



by:

Worked well, raised trailer tongue just right



by:

Ball size is 1 7/8 and works well. Did not come with pin. No Complaints. Perfect high for my ford fiesta.



by:

Good quality products, great instructions and details on how to use/install them and everything worked exactly as it should have.



by:

Did not work for my application but is great quality

  • Product Availability for Hauling a Honda Ruckus with 2017 Hyundai Sonata
    You have two options of a hitch for your 2017 Hyundai Sonata, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C11402 and the Draw-Tite Sportframe, # 24965. I prefer the Curt option that is assembled in the USA and noted for having a superior powder coating. Each of these options have the same specs of being a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. They are rated for a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs. and a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. Meaning that the vertical load on these hitch options...

  • Hauling a Dirt Bike With a 2010 Toyota Corolla
    The best way to haul your dirt bike will be with a trailer as the frame of your 2010 Toyota Corolla is not strong enough to support that much weight on the hitch. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11265 will allow you to haul a trailer with your Corolla. Your Corolla is rated to tow up to 1500lbs. You will also need the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM11141815 to operate the lights on the trailer. And a Curt Drawbar with 1-7/8" Ball # C45571. With that you will be...

  • Ball Mount Recommendation for Curt Hitch for 2008 BMW 335xi
    With Class I hitches like what is available for your 2008 BMW 335xi, part # C11033 you have to go with the recommended ball mount otherwise the warranty of the hitch is no longer valid. So you have to use the part # C45521 which is what Curt recommends. It has a 2-5/8 inch drop and 3-1/4 inch rise.

  • Custom Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2014 Scion iQ and Parts Needed For Towing a Trailer
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11291 is custom fit for your 2014 Scion iQ. It will bolt on with no drilling required but, you may need to enlarge the access holes to get the square hole spacers to fit inside your frame. I recommend installing the Upgraded Circuit Protected Tail Light Converter # 119178KIT when you install the receiver. This will give you a 4-way flat connector that can be used when towing most small trailers. It will also allow for Auxiliary Lights # C53201 if you...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2018 Honda Fit Sport
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11406 is a fit for all 2018 Honda Fit models including the Sport. If you will be using this for a bike rack or other accessory, you will also need the stability strap # 18050 to keep your manufacturer warranty in tact. If you will be towing a light trailer, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56395 and ball mount # C45571 or # C45572.

  • Trailer Hitch Fit for a 2012 BMW 328ix Wagon
    We have had several customers come back and say they were able to install the Curt Hitch part # C11367 on their 2012 BMW 328ix Wagon so we can safely say it will fit. For trailer wiring you would then want the zero contact wiring harness part # 119250KIT which is a confirmed fit and doesn't' require any hardwiring. For a 1-7/8 inch ball mount you would want part # C45571 or for a 2 inch ball part # C45572.

  • Trailer Hitch Compatible with 2012 Infinity M37
    The 2012 Infinity M37 is the rear wheel drive versus the M37X which is all wheel drive. This will not change the hitch fit at all, so the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11111 will absolutely fit your M37. It is an installation you can do yourself, but it does require removing the bumper and trimming an underbody panel. There is no drilling required and I've attached the installation details to assist. If you will be using this hitch for a bike rack...

    According to the online copy of your owner's manual, your 2013 Honda Accord Coupe has a maximum total trailer weight limit of 1,000 lbs. This includes the weight of the trailer, cargo, and everything inside or loaded on top of it.

    For a newer vehicle like yours I would go with the Curt hitch part # C11480 which is a confirmed fit and does not require any fascia trimming. Any time you don't have to modify a new vehicle, I recommend going that route. For ball mounts we have the part # C45572 for a 2 inch ball or the part # C45571 for 1-7/8 inch ball. Then for trailer wiring you woudl want the part # C56385 which is a confirmed fit. Due to the light duty nature of your vehicle, I would not imagine that a trailer with...

You would need to be sure to stay under these capacities and the towing capacities of your vehicle that are listed in the owners manual.

  • Can Curt Euro Style Ball Mounts be Used in a Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch on a 2016 Honda HR-V
    Curt used to put a stop in the shank behind the hitch pin hole to prevent the use of Class II accessories (which the Curt Euro ball mounts are). Curt hitch # C11416 for your 2016 HR-V does not have that stop but double check your hitch to make sure it isn't present. If not then you can use a Curt Euro ball mount! For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # C45571. For a 2 inch ball use # C45572.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2016 Scion iM
    The trailer hitch we offer for your iM is the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C11420. This is a Class l hitch and it has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. This will work great for light towing. Curt requires a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 to be used for any non-trailer items used in the trailer hitch. If you need a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball I recommend the Euro style drawbar, part # C45571 and for a 2-inch you can use part # C45572. for a trailer wiring harness you can use part # C56309.

I recommend going with the Curt # C12107 as I have noticed their finishes tend to be more durable. It is also made here in the USA. Curt recommends either the 2" Ball # C45572 or 1-7/8" Ball # C45571 if you plan on towing. The Master Lock Set # 3794DAT will allow you to secure your trailer to your Avalon while towing.

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12343 has a shipping weight of 24-lbs; about 1-1/2 to 2-lbs of that is going to be the packaging. This hitch does come with all of the hardware needed to install your hitch. If you're going to be towing with this hitch, you'll also need a wiring harness, ball mount and hitch ball. For the wiring I recommend using the Tekonsha # 118405 because I've found that the Tekonsha harness converter boxes are a bit more reliable over time. For the hitch ball I...

    According to your owners manual, your 2012 Ford Focus should never tow a trailer and is not equipped to tow. Using a trailer hitch like # C11158 is ideally to be used for accessories like a bike rack. Your vehicle has a payload rating between 935 and 1,055 lbs so if somehow you fit it inside your vehicle Ford would be okay with it. I personally would tow that trailer (but not anything larger than the jon boat) and you would be operating outside of Ford's warranty and recommendation. Based...

  • Could 2010 Ford Focus Tow Jet Ski Trailer with Curt Hitch
    As long as the towing capacities of your 2010 Ford Focus (check owners manual) and the Curt hitch part # C11319 don't get exceeded you could tow a jet ski trailer. This hitch has a 2,000 lb trailer weight capacity and 200 lb tongue weight capacity. Typically jet ski trailers are much lighter than that. For a 1-7/8 inch ball mount you would want the part # C45571 or for a 2 inch ball mount part # C45572. For trailer wiring you then would want the part # 118457.
