This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.2”21 Ranger Lariet with rear tow hooks will still work with this hitch. At first it does not look like it will work. I loosened my spare and then installed the hitch and it worked out fine. Spare and all !
Installation instructions were great. Especially the use of clamps to hold he bumper in place when removing the four bolts to mount the hitch bar.
I ordered a trailer hitch for my 2000 twent. A Ford Ranger on the 20th of November received it, November 22nd and it's already on my truck installed. It's a little hard to install it yourself. But it's duable and I've did it myself long as you've got a couple jacks holders or some kind of blocking to hold the Hitch up till you get the 4 bolts in and that's it..
Easy install (by my self) Hitch is doing just I as hoped, and expected a hitch woud do.
Great Hitch. Easy install 1st job was a 3000# payload 1100 mi over mtns, S. Carolina to western NY. Would recommend e-Trailer and Curt Hitches.
Look, I am no wrench turner, but can do basic automotive tasks. This is easy. I didn't have a torque wrench, a lift or any fancy tools. I lowered my speare tire, used a hollow jack handle attached to my socket wrench, clamped the right and left frame tabs, removed 4 bolts (2 each side), and it fit like a glove. Applied a little bit of grease to the threads and torqued it back in place. As you can see, without the hitch, it is flush and doesn't protrude from the bumper. Made in America! Perfect fit! Easy install. Thanks etrailer!
Great design, easy install (4bolts), high quality. Would recommend.
Shipping was fast. Ordering process was simple. Install was easy (took longer to get out and put away the tools). After owning it a year and pulling many times, it is all good.
Don’t hesitate to order.
It's good. It is there a year later, don't Even think about it.
New hitch was delivered quickly. Easy to install. 2019 Ranger has a tab on the bumper and frame that I was able to temporarily use a bolt and nut through to hold the bumper in place while the bumper bolts were removed to position the hitch. I used a floor jack to position the hitch and then bolted it into place. Took about 30 minutes to complete installation.

Hitch has been problem free and continues service today
My installer was thrilled I bought the the unit I bought and a year later I am perfectly happy with my choice to buy from you. Your customer service people are friendly and knowledgeable and my hitch works great with towing trailers and my bike rack.
The receiver is a solid addition and a perfect fit on my 2019 Ford Ranger. The folks at etrailer are professionals all the way. The installation was easy for a 77 year old like me. I just followed the recommended instructions: 1)used vice grips to secure both sides of the existing bumper to the frame; 2)removed existing 21mm bolts, both sides (a 2' breaker bar helps); 3)aligned new receiver to existing holes in the frame; 4)replaced and tightened existing bolts (cleaned and greased them first).
Since I didn't have a helper handy, I had to support both ends of the receiver for step 3. The whole job took maybe an hour in my gravel driveway with me on my back on a piece of cardboard. You younger guys will likely be faster. I'm very pleased with the product and would recommend it to all. Just what I needed.
Curt hitch receiver quality is visible.Install was very easy,my order was process and handled very well as well as follow up from Etrailer.Very satisfied customer here¡¡

It’s still working great!

I did reach out to the manufacturer and while it is a tight fit, it is ok for the spare tire to touch the back of the hitch.
Easiest receiver hitch I've ever installed! Used two quick clamps to hold the bumper to the frame per the instructions. 1/2" cordless impact gun zipped out the four bumper bolts. While laying under the truck, lifted the receiver up into place. Started one bolt on each side to hold the hitch. Started the two remaining bolts by hand, tightened all four with the impact. Removed the quick clamps, tightened to torque spec with a Snap-On 1/2" torque wrench. Done is less than 10 minutes.
Received the hitch quicker than I thought.
Arrived in good shape.
I watched the installation video before hand, so I was pretty much prepared. The actual installation would have been much easier if the guy in the video had been delivered along with the hitch - lol -
I had pretty good clearance under my Ranger, so I didn’t need a lift. I propped the hitch up on a 5 gallon bucket and was able to maneuver it into the bumper slots by myself. Definitely would have been easier with a second set of hands, but this 74 year old dude did it by himself in about an hour! Hardest part was getting the bolts out and tightening to the prescribed XXX foot pounds. (I’ll ask a mechanic friend to check that with a torque wrench later).
The Curt hitch was on backorder and arrived much quicker than expected. It was a simple install, only took about 15 to 20 minutes. One note of caution, the torque value in the instruction sheet states 196 ft-lbs, should only be 146 ft-lbs for a 2019+ Ranger. Once installed, it looks great on the truck.
Thanks to etrailer for offering a great product and great service!
Great value for the money. Installation for a "novice" is a little trickier than advertised. For a 2021 Ford Ranger, you need a 21mm deep socket, torque wrench, robust c-clamps, as well as a second person to hold the receiver in place while the bolts are re-installed. I had to drop the spare to fit the receiver in place so that added more time. But overall, I'm very happy with the finished product though installation took a little longer than anticipated.
Installed myself without a hitch , works perfect
Wonderful! Was a great price and shipping. Great quality and fit. Me and my teen daughter crawled under my 2021 Ranger XL and using just a wrench we had it on in 10-15 minutes. Easiest with an extra hand but you could clamp it up or other methods to help hold it till bolted. Have pulled three different trailers no issues. Love it. Thanks.
It went on in about 16 minutes. Fit perfectly used it today to hold my bike rack. Very happy with the product, the service. The whole experience exceeded my expectation. Thanks

Have been hauling by boat now for a year it is as solid now as it was the day I installed it. No rust, I expect this will outlast the life of the truck.
