Well built, solid receiver hitch. I had to make minor modifications to get it to fit the gladiator mojave because of the fox shock mounts
Fits perfect and works just as I needed it to. I use it for my SnowSport plow set-up on a 2022 Gladiator Sport Max Tow. I’ve been using front receivers for this same plow for the last 24 years. It’s been used on 5 different trucks and this front receiver mount plow is the BEST.
*** When installing on a Gladiator(possibly the Wrangler as well), the front plastic trim below the bumper needs to be cut for receiver clearance. I wanted a tight and “factory looking” install, so I took my time with a vibrating cutter and very sharp utility knife. After trying to put it back in place, the hole is not just square, it’s shaped more like. “T”. I suggest you make small adjustments/cuts as you go forward. It may take several times fitting and cutting to get it right and tight, but in the end it does look like it came that way from JEEP. On the Max Tow package, there is also a metal skid plate that does not get reinstalled. Unfortunately that piece is where the back of the plastic fascia mounts. I ended up securing it with some long heavy-duty zip-ties and it’s worked well for a year now. Just an FYI for those installing the same receiver on their same vehicle.
Installed real easy. Cuttingbthe plastic rock guard was the hardest part.
Product shipped and received on time. I'm very happy with the packaging. Hardware was included with instructions to install the hitches I purchased.
Opened the box and instructions were bad, OK you added the video the video when is OK. The parts seen of matching OK (not 100% verifying the list of parts and qualities). Shipping way odd and for a e-shipping no thing over a week, then boom you are shipping and here (odd). It is raining now - - so no installing a hitch in the driveway today...

The hitch worked OK, even if the instructions were not so good. My hitch for the home snow plow worked OK for the winter.

All was great. Good quality product. Install instructions for cutting the front pan were incorrect. The hitch design appears to have changed from the instructions provided. A much different cut-out was required making many installs and removals. The 3 X 5" cut-out in the instructions is incorrect.

Great, but installation was a bit more challenging then identified
Excellent. The receiver is of great quality and fitment was perfect. The installation video was a very nice resource allowing installation preparation and because of this I completed the receiver install in a little less than 30 minutes. This is the third Curt receiver I have purchased from etrailer and each time I have had the same exceptional experience with the product and etrailer.
It will be so nice to have the Jeep with us. But it didn’t take the 90 minutes but most of the day to put it on
Easy install. I have my winch attached to it and it works great. Much cheaper than getting a new bumper with integral winch.
Very easy install. Videos were great help. I like the idea of fish springs, I didn't need them, but tried it out, works great. Quality unit, made in USA.
Shipping very quick, follow up emails. Great outfit to deal with. I'll be contacting soon about purchasing a snowplow with them.
This was one of the easiest installs / modifications ever. The install was pretty loose and forgiving when put into place but it tightened up nicely. I was a little worried about cutting the front fascia after seeing a couple of reviews where others has omitted it, but that too was actually really easy to do with a sharp razor knife. Everything was completed in just 45 minutes during my lunch hour in the parking lot at work!
Not hard to install at all, the hard part was getting the plastic clamps back into the air dam. LOL
Quick delivery. Perfect fit. Easy install. Thanks.
A little fiddly to install for one person, when I added a helper everything went smoothly.
Also, if you're going to put the lower plastic tray back on the car, you'll find that the tray will need to be test fitted a few times to get the fitment of the push rivets correct. The slot you'll end up cutting isn't going to be a rectangle but more of a "T" slot. This is to account for the stiffing flange of the hitch.
Overall, a very stout and well built product.
Excellent purchase, easy to install and great quality. We added an extension bracket and a 6-rod rack + cooler bumper mount - it's a game changer!
Easy to install, built well. You will have to cut the plastic shield under the Jeep.
easy to do business with.
the videos that pertain exactly to my vehicle make installation a synch
super company!
i received exactly what i ordered and actually a day earlier than expected. This was my first order with etrailer and will 100% order from them again.
Thank you for your excellent service!
easy fit and good instructions !
It fit perfectly. Easy to install
Purchased several times from etrailer and always a good experience

Its a blessing to have as I had something similar on an old truck and missed it. Makes life much easier getting my camper and car trailer in the yard around the tree thats in the middle of the driveway design.
