Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2011 Ford Edge
Question:
I have a 2011 Ford Edge and would like to put a trailer hitch on it. I watched one of your videos and they used Hidden Hitch, part number 87604. Is this the part I should use? I am having trouble finding it on your website.

Expert Reply:
The Hidden Hitch part number 87604 that you referenced has been replaced by the Draw-Tite part # 75992 so that would be the hitch you would want.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
For trailer wiring you would want the # 118515. Install video attached for that as well.
