Still haven't towed anything with it yet but it seems very solid. I do think it will rattle some in the receiver because it is loose in my 2" receiver on my 2019 F150.

I have used this quite a few times over the last year. I have used it in several different heights and it worked great. This is a very strong and heavy product that should last me a life time and on many tow vehicles.



by:

This hitch has worked out great for me over the last year. It’s very heavy duty and easy to adjust. I’ve hauled a 9,000 lb boat, long-distance on numerous occasions without issue. I also haul a landscape trailer on a daily basis weighing over 5,000lbs and haven’t had a single issue. Great hitch that was significantly cheaper than others and is very high quality. I’ve recommended it to several people and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again. The only thing I would like to have now in a hitch is a tongue weight gauge, but it isn’t necessary.

It just so happens we offer a tongue weight scale as part # e99044...



by:

This is a great hitch. Highly recommend this hitch. This is my second curt hitch, first one was on my ford f450 but unfortunately that one wouldn’t fit on my new truck, do to shank size.



by:

I am very impressed with C45900 ball mount. Curt is an excellent manufacturer. The only thing I did not like are the snap rings on the pins. I have seen those get hooked unintentionally or be pulled to steal the ball mount. I replaced Curt's pins with Grade 8 bolts, drilled holes and secured with a padlock. It would be nice if someone made a locking hitch pin with enough span for the channel. I added the reflective tape for higher visibility. I live in Phoenix where they have a plant. Please run this idea by them and let me know what they think. The two locking hitch pins would only raise the price by $50. If you have a vendor who has longer pins please let me know. Using unsecured pins is asking for trouble. Thanks--Jerry



by:

Excellent product that fit my need perfectly. I tow with 2 trucks, one needs a drop and the other needs it up a bit. I usually leave it on one truck but I also tow 3 different trailers with it and was sick of having to carry all sorts of hitches.
I've had no complaints at all with it, I'd definitely buy recommend it to anyone.

Great hitch, after one year I still recommend. Get one!



by:

Excellent product. Installed in minutes. I tow a 14 k lb dump trailer. Needed the additional rise on the hitch. The draw bar is adjustable so that I can tow my utility trailer as well. High quality like most products I have purchased from etrailer.com

Very good except the Rubber s have worn causing hitch to vibrate



by:

I really like your products and the shipping of my hitch was very prompt



by:

We need the ability for different vehicles to pull a trailer and this should work great but haven't had a chance to use yet.



by:

My package came in opened and I’m not sure all the parts are even there. I can send a picture to show you what was in the package and how the package was when I received it. It was open on two ends.

It works perfect. Adjustable so I can tow my boat, and dump trailer. Easy to use and still looks brand new.

Thanx for a high quality hitch with low or no noise.I will be towing a 12000 lb 30Ft.Rinker.
The hitch is very easy to adjust.

Still Great



by:

High quality build, high towing capacity, very flexible - will adjust to a wide variety of hitch heights. Reasonable price and fast delivery!



by:

Awesome Adjustable Ballmount..



by:

The hitch worked great I bought this hitch plus a Curt Lunette ring C48660 for my pull truck. Used the hitch setup for the first time last night and worked flawless, I would definitely recommend this setup to my friends the price was great and the hitch is well built.Thanks etrailer



by:

I have had this ball mount on my truck for about a year now. Has held up well with no real issues. One pen did disappear earlier this year, but not sure if it somehow worked out on its own or if someone stole it. Replacement was easy to find. Easy to adjust, does not make any noticeable noise.



by:

This hitch is as KISS as an adjustable hitch could be. Built very well, with good thick gussets, a solid receiver shank, perfect welds and a good powder coat. The fact the trailer balls are built from one forged piece means no worry about a nut loosening and no weld to potentially break. I would go ahead and recommend you buy two replacement rubber isolators and just go ahead and put them in the other two holes in the hitch so no matter where the ball is it has some contact with an isolator without having to move the one it comes with. I highly recommend etrailer, they have great prices and fast shipping and they put out a lot of very helpful videos and pictures of the products they are selling.



by:

This hitch mount replaced about 6 others that I kept in my truck under the seat. This hitch is so easy to use. It's strength is so much more than my truck can handle so I have vot been worried about it failing. Adjusting takes seconds. I wish I would have had this for longer and I have had two friends that bought the same one. We all love them. I'm currently a "Band Dad" and I have to often pull about a half dozen trailers. I gave my old hitches to the band and.... everyone wants to borrow mine if I'm not using. Game changer for sure.



by:

I like the overall versatility of this hitch but the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because Curt is manufactured in the USA. The box I received says it was made in India! I hope this metal is strong and well made cause my horses lives depend on it.

Thank you for your review. The Curt hitches are assembled in the USA but not the ball mounts. The only adjustable ball mounts that we carry that are made in the USA are the B&W adjustable ball mounts like part BWTS10040B.



by:

Wroks great. I can adjust this hitch for all 6 of my trailers.



by:

Great product at a great price and shipped very fast. Your warehouse to my door in GA in less than 48 hours FREE! Thanks. I always enjoy dealing with your company.



by:

Ordered Curt C45900 for my work truck. Chose this product because it's rated slightly above what I need, it's steel and highly adjustable. Etrailers website is very easy to navigate, has a lot of installed photos for comparisons and has fast shipping. Will continue to shop with Etrailer as needs arise.



by:

I am completely satisfied with the adjustable hitch. It's heavy duty and easy to adjust.



by:

Love this ball mount, i just bought a new dump trailer and needed something with some meat to it. This product it solid steel and can with stand a very heavy load. I would reccomend this product to anyone. I started with another brand product and it just could not handle the tough jobs.



by:

This product does exactly what it is designed to do. I use it in my 45' motor home to tow a car hauler trailer.

  • Will the Demco Lunette Ring Work on The Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount
    Yes the Demco Lunette Ring part # DM09557-97 will work with the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount part # C45900. It will be rated for the 1,400 lb tongue weight and the 14,000 lb gross trailer weight rating of the Curt ball mount. Replacement Shank for Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mounts part # C45910 is an option as well with the same capacity.

  • Parts to Equip 2007 Honda Pilot and 2004 Ford F-350 for Towing ATV Trailer
    We can help you get your two vehicles, the 2007 Honda Pilot EX 4x4, and the 2004 Ford F-350 diesel, ready with the items needed for towing your Aluma ATV trailer. Your Aluma 7710 trailer itself weighs in at 565-lbs so with an ATV loaded your total tow load will be in the range of 1300 to 1500-lbs. Both vehicles have more than enough towing capacity. Let's go one at a time. For the 2007 Honda Pilot EX 4x4 I recommend the 2-inch hitch # 75599. For wiring, since the trailer has no brakes...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness for 2000 GMC Sierra 1500
    For your 2000 GMC Sierra 1500 there is not a connection to factory wiring for the connector you mentioned. My recommendation is to use the Vehicle Wiring Harness Kit with 4 Pole Trailer Connector (Includes Install Kit) # C59496 that is confirmed to work with your truck. I've attached a video of an install on a vehicle just as a reference. This harness will protect your factory wiring from overload and create an easy connection using the quick-splice connectors.

  • Can A 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan Tow A Trailer
    Yes, you absolutely can tow that trailer. The 2019 Grand Caravan has a Gross Combined Weight Rating at 8,750 for example so you have more than enough capacity there. A great hitch to set you up is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98854. With a matte black finish that resists corrosion and scratches, it's a great choice to do the job. You will also need trailer wiring and what I recommend there is the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector...

  • Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount For A 2023 Mazda CX-9 With Draw Tite 76020 Hitch
    We do have a potential solution for you, but the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 is not going to work with this setup. The Draw Tite Hitch # 76020 is going to be recessed about 6" behind the bumper on the 2023 Mazda CX-9. This is measured from the center of the hitch pin hole, to the farthest edge of the bumper. The Curt ball mount has a vertical support welded to the back of the channel only 4-1/8" from the pin hole. This would contact the bumper before it could be fully...

    The Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount - 2" & 2-5/16" Balls - 14,000 lbs # C45900 you were looking at is made overseas, but we do have a few made in the USA options. I recommend the taking a look at the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop/Rise - 16K # 325-GH-224 which has a 5" rise and drop, a 12000lb towing capacity when using the 2" ball, and 16000lb towing capacity when using the 2-5/16" ball.

If this does not match your ball mount then you can use the Replacement Shank for Curt Adjustable 2-Ball Mount - 2-1/2" Hitch - 20,000 lbs # C45917 if your tow vehicle has a 2-1/2" trailer hitch, or the # C45900 if your tow vehicle has a 2" trailer hitch receiver.

    The etrailer.com Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches # 989900 would be a great option if you only have a couple trailers, but could be an issue with multiples and in some cases will involve tools. I definitely recommend going with an adjustable ball mount like # C45900. This will give you both a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch diameter hitch ball and the adjustment for switching hitch ball size and height takes only seconds with no tools required. I've attached an article on ball mount height to assist....

  • Do I Need to Modify the Trailer Height After Getting 2" Lift On Truck To Tow Level
    For a 2" lift on the 2017 Outback Wagon you should not need to do any adjustments to the trailer to tow level because 2" is minimal. You may need to switch out ball mount to a ball mount with more of a drop if your hitch height has increased. I recommend to measure from the top of the hitch receiver to the ground. Then measure from the bottom of the trailer coupler to the ground. The difference in those two measurements is how much drop you need to tow level. We recommend to be within 2"...

    The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98850 is a great made in USA option for a 2013 Toyota Tacoma. It features a bolt-on install and it has a hidden design. In order to complete the towing setup you'll also need the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118496 which is plug and play along with a ball mount/hitch ball for which I recommend the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount part # C45900.

  • Picking Out a Ball Mount for 2019 Silverado 1500 based On Hitch and Coupler Heights
    Since the coupler height picture you sent in isn't with the trailer level it's hard to say what rise or drop you'd need. Typically you take the distance from bottom of coupler lip to ground compared to distance from top of hitch opening down to ground. Using your two figures of 20 inch on the hitch and 23 on the coupler you'd need a rise of 3 inches. But without the trailer being level I can't really recommend that. Could you level the trailer and get me what the coupler distance is again?...
