Just your basic ball mount, the product is just like most 2” Hitch ball mounts, the service wasn’t very good though.
Ordered on June 15th (product was in stock) took them 6 days to send it out, took another 6 days in shipping and got all the way to my post office two days before leaving on vacation (I needed it for the vacation) and the post office said “box was empty and they notified seller” etrailer sent a new one (got here a week after my vacation) in a damaged box (packaging is horrible, little bit of paper in a box with a 5 lbs ball mount) almost lost this one too.
I don’t believe I’ll be using etrailer in the future (had issues before)



by:

Does the job, however there's a lot of play when hitch mount is inserted into the hitch and when towing with an empty trailer. Very loud. Have to buy a silencer that goes around and secures the product.

So far so good - thx for checking



by:

Looks & works great. Easy to install. Make sure you order or have a locking pin and ball to go with it.



by:

This is a great all-purpose hitch. I've used it to mount a heavy-duty bike rack and a steel T-rack to carry a canoe as well as lumber. Most recently I hauled 5 x 8 cargo trailers full of plants, then furniture for a 600-mile move. It was simple to use, problem free, very strong and sturdy. Now that I live on some acreage, I see a trailer in my future, so this will get a lot more use. I drive a 2013 Tacoma, so this is a good size hitch at a good price with sufficient capacity for my needs. I do use a key lock for the hitch as well.



by:

Excellent workmanship, easy to use, str ong



by:

Ordered the whole trailer hitch package but did not include the pin for the ball mount. CHEAP and will never order from you again

The product was going to come in late but etrailer offered a more expensive hitch substitute for the product I ordered. I was completely satisfied with the service, communication and product. This is the second time I purchased from etrailer.

fine



by:

I know absolutely nothing about hitches! I checked prices and products in my area and was dissatisfied with high prises and confusion over which product would be best for my vehicle. I did an extensive search on the internet and found etrailer.com. I called and talked to Jonathan. He walked me thru the entire order process and explained details about the products. I placed my order and received it in time frame I asked for. My local Toyota dealer installed the hitch without any problems! I am totally satisfied with the pricing, product and customer service. I highly recommend etrailer.com!!!



by:

It's a ball mount. Feels substantial and well made. Paint looks good, nice looking welding. Can't say anything bad. I understand that the hitch balls come in different sizes and types, but it would have been nice to get a simple hitch pin and clip when buying the hitch and ball mount together, as I was expecting that to be included with one or the other.

Year later, still works fine. Still think it should have included a hitch pin and clip.



by:

Instalation was pretty quick and easy, the completed installation worked great on my new trailer.

Perfect fit for my Curt Receiver Hitch for my Venza !



by:

Good product. Just as one should expect.



by:

This hitch is perfect for my needs. Great, quality products, from a knowledgeable source, offering competitive prices. Also, the brief video assist eased my installation efforts.



by:

I'm assuming I have to buy the pin separately, but this wasn't pointed out to me, so when I got ready to use this I had to stop and get a pin.



by:

Continues to withstand the workload.

I seldom take the time to write a review but I felt compelled to share my excellent overall experience with etrailer.com. I ordered the C13200 trailer hitch receiver, 2" ball, 2" ball mount receiver, pin/clip, and C56217 wiring harness for my 2017 Toyota Highlander XLE. All arrived in no time and in excellent condition. The installation videos and PDF documents are outstanding. I installed the hitch receiver in roughly 45 minutes - includes time to convince brother in-law to come over to help hoist it into place. Wiring harness installation was a breeze, roughly 20 minutes (again, great instructional videos). I could not be happier with the finished product. Thanks etrailer.com for making this a trouble free installation. If you are considering adding a hitch, etc. go no further, you are at the right place...order away. Its very easy to install and you will save a trailer load of cash!!!



by:

Slips right into the hitch and works pe rfectly!

This fits my 2" hitch just as advertised. Fit and finish is perfect.

Great product! Easy install. Completed project myself in 1.5 hours...would recommend for any skill level...just gotta be willing to crawl around on your back

We are more than pleased with your products and the transaction. Thanks again!

The video and the written instructions for installing the hitch were very helpful for a novice like me. In the process I saw that there was a good reason for every tool listed for installing it. The hitch fits perfectly and looks very sturdy. Now we can't wait to be able to take our bicycles with us when we go to the mountains from Denver, letting us enjoy all the biking trails. Also the hitch arrived only 3 days after ordering it - great!

Ordered a complete hitch package for my GMC Terrain. Every piece was included and all of it was top notch quality. The fit was perfect and installation was a breeze. The wiring harness matched up perfectly with the OEM plugs, no splicing or crimping required. I highly recommend this company and its products.

The hitch has performed perfectly. Im a very satisfied customer.

It took a while before my son had time to install the trailer package. Took some watching of [online] videos but he got it installed and it works great. We’ve used it a couple of times to pull a small trailer.

I ordered a Curt ball mount for the second hitch I purchased from etrailer this year. It arrived a day earlier than I thought it would! Thank you Melinda for taking care of my order. etrailer is 3 for 3 with me, 100%. I highly recommend them and will be using them in the future.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Volkswagen Atlas
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C93CR you were looking at is confirmed to fit your 2021 Volkswagen Atlas as long as it is the Cross Sport model. To tow your trailer with a 2-5/16" coupler you will need a ball mount and a 2-5/16" hitch ball. To find the correct ball mount you will want to measure from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch receiver, and then from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on your trailer. The difference between these measurements is the drop...

  • Tools Needed to Install Curt # 13245 Class III Trailer Hitch on 2008 Jeep Liberty
    The Curt Class III hitch, part # 13245 would require a ratchet, an 18 and 19mm socket and a torque wrench. If you click the provided links, you can see the install instructions and a video showing the hitch being installed on a 2008 Jeep Liberty. If you'll be using the hitch for towing purposes, you'll also need the following to complete your towing set-up: Trailer wiring harness w/ 4-pole trailer connector, part # C56334 Ball mount, part # C45030 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19260...

  • What is the Best Trailer Hitch for My 2021 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport
    The trailer hitch I would recommend for your 2021 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C93CR. I recommend this hitch because it has a thicker powder coat finish than other hitches, which helps protect from rust and corrosion. For a wiring harness I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # TK89FR, because of the reliability the Tekonsha harnesses have. To complete your towing equipment, you...

  • Can a Hitch be Installed Over New Undercoating on a 2015 Mazda CX-9
    I recommend scraping away the undercoating where a trailer hitch makes contact with the frame on your 2015 Mazda CX-9. Sometimes undercoating can be quite thick and it can cause some fit issues when installing a hitch so it is best just to scrape it away with a small chisel or putty knife (or similar tool). I have linked a video showing an example installation of hitch # 13575 for you. The recommended ball mount is # C45030 with a 1 inch rise/2-1/4 inch drop. If the ball mount does not...

From the research I did, your 2010 Dodge Nitro has a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. Based on the weight capacity rating of the Curt hitch, it can reach that amount but you would need to use weight distribution...

    When installing trailer wiring harness # C56012 on a 2008 Chevy Equinox, you should not have to have the computer flashed to activate the harness.

    If you are installing the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13136 or the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75940 on your 2017 Porsche Macan and plan on towing, you will need to take some very simple measurements in order to find out the correct ball mount. First, make sure both your Porsche and trailer are parked on level ground; you'll then want to measure from the ground to the top of the inside of your hitch receiver. Next, measure from the ground to the bottom of your trailer's coupler and find the difference...

  • Ball Mount for 2016 Subaru Outback with 2 inch Curt Trailer Hitch Installed
    The Curt 2 inch hitch part # C13206 which is a fit for your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon actually doesn't sit too far recessed under the rear bumper of your vehicle. I attached a picture that shows that it actually is almost flush so a ball mount like the part # C45030 that you referenced would be a great choice. For a hitch ball we have the part # 63845 for a 2 inch ball or part # 63847 for a 2-5/16 inch ball. For trailer wiring you then would want the Tekonsha kit part # 118467 which is...

    For a trailer hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III, part # 13456. The # C13128 hitch you'd looked at is for the Land Rover Evoque, and wouldn't fit your Range Rover Sport. Please note, if your Range Rover Sport has the full-sized spare tire, it will no longer fit under the vehicle once the hitch is installed. For a trailer wiring harness, I'd recommend the # C59496. For a ball mount, use # C45030 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball. You will also need a pin...

  • Recommended Vehicle Wiring Harness, Ball Mount, And Hitch Ball For 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
    I would be happy to help! Starting with the vehicle wiring harness for your 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118578 which will plug in to the factory connectors behind the trim panels on the driver and passenger side of the rear cargo area. This will give you the 4-way connector you need to power the lights of the 5' x 8' U-Haul trailer.

  • Is There a Shorter Shank Option for Curt Fixed Ball Mount with 2 Inch Drop
    The Curt Class III Ball Mount with 2" Ball - 2" Drop - 7,500 lbs # C45036 does come with the hitch ball installed. The ball platform is 3/4 inches thick which is standard with a 1 inch diameter hole. This is the shortest option for that rise and drop. There is a lower rated option in # C45131 but it is only due to the smaller hitch ball that is 1-7/8 inch diameter. It still uses the same ball mount and just changes the hitch ball. There are longer options that are similar but nothing...

If you're interested in a hitch for your Palisade, the etrailer hitch # e95ZR mentioned above is a great choice. This hitch offers a maximum tongue weight of 750lbs, and a maximum gross trailer weight of 5,000lbs. To finish a towing setup you'll also need a ball mount # C45030, and trailer wiring # CU94FR.

    The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DR64FR you were looking at will not fit for your 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon due to your vehicle having the supports welded on to the bumper that block the hitch from being able to contact the frame of your vehicle. Due to this you will need to go with the Curt # CU74FR instead as it mounts in a different way which allows it to work with these supports.

  • Recommended 2 Inch Ball Mount With 1 Inch Rise
    For a 2 inch ball mount that offers a 1 inch rise/2 inch drop and a 12K capacity, I'd recommend the Draw-Tite # 4284. For a 2-5/16 inch ball, use # 19286 which also has a 12K capacity. If you don't need that much capacity, go for the Curt # C45030 and for a 2-5/16 inch ball, use # 63847. This combination would have a 7500 lb maximum capacity. For either setup, you'd also need a # PC3 hitch in.
