Longer stinger let me drop the tailgate on my Tacoma with trailer attached. Replaced a similar but shorter Curt hitch and both are very substantial and well made for the weight of my trailer.

With good information from the website it was easy to order a Curt 2"
Trailer Hitch, the Upgraded Circuit Protected Tail Light Converter Hardwire Kit w/ 4-Pole Connector and Circuit Tester - 119178KIT, Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches (3/4" Rise, 2" Drop - 10-1/4" Long - 7,500 lbs - D-4), Curt Pin and Clip Hitch Receiver - C21500, Rubber Tube Cover for 2" Trailer Hitch Receivers - I-728,Review, and 2" hitch ball 40038. Parts were delivered earlier than the initial estimate. Self installation (on a sloped drive way) took just under 2 hour. The fit of parts was very good, instructions and on-line video's were very helpful. My Kia did not have the wire plug in option, but the splice connections in the wire kit were easy to install. Most of the parts are hidden from view when the ball mount is not used.

I have a custom made tow guard. The ball mount I have was too short to allow me to attach the tow guard to my new truck. I searched the web and found just what I needed at etrailer.com. It's the only site I found that carried the size I needed. The product fits my needs perfectly. I can now protect my boat from rocks and other road debris when towing. Thank you etrailer.com.



by:

surprised as part of the package sold the pin to secure the 2" ball mount was not included.

There are some ball mounts that do include the hitch pin and the ball with them, like kit # 989900. If you were not needing a ball and wanted to get a kit with just the pin and clip included with the ball mount, we do have part # 2923.



by:

Just what I wanted!



by:

No problem.It works as expected.



by:

I purchased this unit to extend the trailer jack handle just far enough that I could open the tailgate on my truck with the trailer attached. It worked perfect. I tow a pop-up camper with 2006 Toyota Tacoma. Pricing was good and delivery was quick from etrailer. At first I tried to buy locally from auto parts store or camper store, but neither had in stock anything the right dimensions. The unit from etrailer is made in the USA, fit just right, and was better quality than what I saw locally.



by:

I have to back up a hill and around a corner with arthritis in my neck to park my boat. I installed a front trailer hitch on my suv and needed this longer shaft Ball Mount to keep the ball far enough away from my license plate and front bumber that I won't damage my vehicle. The unit fits the bill to a "T" and has already gotten compliments from others for its quality and stability. I look forward to fishing season so I can use it.



by:

I bought this ball mount to replace a shorter unit (8.5"-9") in order for the tailgate to clear the jack on one of my trailers when down. The first one that was delivered had a lot of damage to the powder coat finish due to rough shipping (UPS!). etrailer was very quick to send another out that arrived unscathed. Thanks again!



by:

Be aware that etrailer's guidelines for review prevent me from explaining my rating. I could give you the good and the bad, but not if I follow the company's guidelines which are slanted to control what potential customers can learn about the company's service.



by:

I wanted a longer hitch sleeve to prevent back the trailer winch into the tailgate of my pickup and this works perfectly for that purpose. Price was great too! Thank you etrailer!



by:

This is the 10th order I have made from etrailer.com, most of them with multiple items. I cannot say enough about what great experiences I have had with etrailer.com. The website is incredibly helpful, the search tools are great, and the specs, videos and other information are very helpful. The items always ship right away, and arrive well packaged and promptly - and for me they have to cross the border to Canada. I recommend this site to my friends with trailers and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a great experience - and who doesn’t!



by:

Fit my application perfectly - I wanted more space between the tow vehicle and trailer jack so that I could open my tailgate with the trailer attached. Gave me just enough clearance. Shipping was fast, service was great - thanks etrailers!!



by:

Having searched and not finding what I wanted or perhaps not really knowing what I wanted, I called and talked to Cathy. She was very helpful and knowledgeable. She checked and guided me to a longer shank which will give me a longer turning radius, as the tongue on my trailer is short and is a problem. The unit is a solid piece of equipment. I had a clevis pin from a 1 1/4" shank and thought I would use that and not order another and she advised me that the pin for a 2" shaft is larger and I needed a new one. She was so good and accommodating I even asked for her boss to commend her for her good work and pleasant personality. Jlw

Well made heavy duty trailer hitch ball mount just what I needed
so the tailgate would clear the jack stand



by:

Top-notch product. Just completed a 1400 mile trip pulling a trailer with my Chevy Equinox and my etrailer hitch: issue free! That's the best



by:

I was throughly pleased with etrailers quick response and fast shipping.The ball mount I ordered was packaged well,and was good quality.I think I have found a good source for my towing-trailer needs.I'll admit there are not too many moving parts on a ball mount,but they got the job done and treated me right.

Big thank you too everybody at etrailer,

Billy Elkins

I have a Toyota Tacoma pulling an A-Liner Expedition. Used a Ball and Ball mount from Wal-Mart last year. I upgraded to this and heavier rated Ball, and we noticed an immediate difference.

E-Trailer staff, keep doing what you are doing. Your company and products have just earned a loyal customer. Thank You!!



by:

It is too large to slide into the 2" receiver. I may have to grind off some of the coating ti get it slide in and out easily. There was no pin with the hall mount so I will have to get one.



by:

Received quickly. Happy with unit. The extra length is helpful for backing the trailer into tight areas by keeping the trailer a little further from the truck bumper.



by:

WORKS GREAT TAILGATE NOW CLEARS TRAILER JACK



by:

Received this Trailer Hitch Ball Mount just as described. Just what I needed. Great workmanship.



by:

Great fast service.
The new one I purchased
is a 10-1/4" long. My original was 8-1/2". I have a travel trailer and had a heck of a time turning with the 8-1/2". The new 10-1/4" made all the difference. I can turn the trailer without any issues. It has the same rating as my 8-1/2" also. Works great.



by:

Fits the Subaru XV Torklift "EcoHitch Invisi" hitch perfectly.



by:

After I cleared the rust from the bolt holes on the trucks frame (had to chase the threads with a tap) the installation was a snap.

  • Comparing Class III Receiver for 2012 Subaru Outback
    Draw-Tite #75673 has 7 inch distance between the receiver hitch pin hole and the furthest rearward portion of the rear bumper when installed on a 2011 model Subaru Outback Wagon. Although the hitch will attach to the vehicle using existing holes in the frame, a 1-1/8 inch hole saw will be needed to drill an access hole in the frame member on both the driver and passenger side. This hole is necessary in order to feed installation hardware into the frame as shown in the install instructions...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring for 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan
    A step bumper hitch cannot be used on your 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan. For a Class III hitch I recommend the Draw-Tite # 75305. Then for wiring you will need the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118300. If you're also in need of a ball mount you can use the # D-4 along with the # 63845 for a 2" ball or # 19260 for a 1-7/8" ball.

  • Does Curt Trailer Hitch # C13120 Contact the Exhaust on a 2012 Kia Sportage SX
    From what we have learned, if you have an SX Turbo model 2012 Kia Sportage, there is some exhaust contact. There are a few different things you can try to reduce or eliminate rattle if it happens at all. I have included a link to an FAQ article that covers the various methods. I have also included a link to the installation instructions for you.

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring, Ball Mount, Hitch Ball and Bracket Recommendation for a 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe
    My recommendation for trailer wiring for your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe with factory trailer wiring package would be the Replacement OEM Tow Package Wiring Harness, # 118258. Keep in mind that this harness is a replacement harness and, if your vehicle did not have the factory connector installed when it was new, you will need to access the tow package connectors and check them with a circuit tester, like part # PTW2993, to be sure that the wiring is complete on your vehicle. If you find that...

  • How to Determine if 2014 Ford Explorer Has Factory Tow Package
    The best way to determine if your Explorer is equipped with the tow package is to check with your Ford dealer. They should be able to run the VIN and be able to tell you exactly how the vehicle was equipped. I'm assuming you're needing the information to determine the towing capacity of your Explorer. I ran the provided VIN through a Ford VIN decoder, and found that your particular vehicle has the higher of the 2 listed towing capacities at 5000 lbs which would lead me to believe that...

  • Recommended Ball Mount for EcoHitch 306-X7257 Class III Hitch Installed on 2017 Subaru WRX
    When we installed the EcoHitch # 306-X7257 on a Subaru WRX, we found that the receiver sat right at 17 inches in height. I'd recommend going with the # D-4 ball mount, and Hitch Pin and Clip, # PC3, with # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or # 63845 for a 2 inch drop. For a trailer wiring harness, use # C56259. Once the trailer is hitched up, the trailer's tongue weight will cause the rear of the WRX to settle a bit, which would put the ball height at about 17 inches which will be perfect for...

I have linked for you the written install instructions as well as a helpful article with tips for an easier hitch installation.

  • Will Installing Curt Class III # C13513 Interfere with Spare Tire on 2006 Kia Sorento
    The presence of the hitch will prevent the spare tire from dropping straight downward while it is being lowered. While lowering the spare, you will need to push forward on it until it clears the hitch cross tube, at which point it will drop free. We have the same situation on my wifes Kia Sedona van, and I can tell you from experience that it is not difficult to get the spare off of the vehicle. The procedure will just be a little different than you are used to. If you were planning on...

  • Will the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Class III Trailer Hitch Fit on a 2005 Mazda Tribute S
    I verified with my contact at Draw-Tite that the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Class III Trailer Hitch, # 75751, will fit all models of the 2005 Mazda Tribute. The only issue that you may run into will be with the wiring harness. There are two wiring harnesses available for your vehicle. If your vehicle came with a factory tow package, then you can use the Hopkins Custom Fit Wiring Harness, # 40455. If you do have the factory tow package, then you may need to may need to see a local Ford dealership...

    One of the sensors for the hands-free liftgate system on your Escape is located right behind the center of the bumper, meaning that ANY hitch installed on the vehicle will restrict the functional area of the sensors to some degree. Unfortunately, this is unavoidable. My Draw-Tite representative tells me that the # 75782 will interfere less than the # 75758. This is good news because the crossbar of the # 75782 would be mainly concealed behind the rear bumper, while the # 75758 would be...

    Although the Carpod Cargo Carrier is a great product, its shorter than usual shank (4 inches) would prevent it from being used in any of the receivers offered for your 2012 Grand Cherokee. When we have installed the Draw-Tite and Curt hitches on a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, we have found that the distance from the receiver hitch pin hole to the furthest rearward portion of the bumper is typically 4-1/4 inches.

You'll also want to add a trailer connector, part # HM40975 which will mount to the tab on the hitch for a professional looking installation. You'll also need a ball mount like part # D-4 and a trailer ball like # 63845 for a 2 inch or # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. You'll also need a # PC3 hitch pin.
