Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2003 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab
Question:
i have a 2003 dodge Dakota quad cab and i need to purchase a hitch, my concern is i work in the auto parts industry and every hitch i come across says it will fit all Dakotas except quad cabs. so Im doing my research and trying to find one that will fit.

Expert Reply:
For the 2003 Dodge Dakota, there are specific trailer hitches that will fit all models INCLUDING the quad cab. Take a look at Curt hitch # C13145. The instructions I have linked do specify that it fits 2 door and 4 door models.
I also recommend the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag. For trailer wiring, if needed, use # 118329. I have included a link to the installation details for the wiring as well.
