Specially designed to meet your heavy-duty towing needs, this fully welded, corrosion-resistant Dodge Ram Pickup trailer hitch receiver features Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee, ensuring performance that exceeds industry standards.
Features:
Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.
At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.

Specially designed to meet your heavy-duty towing needs, this fully welded, corrosion-resistant vehicle trailer hitch receiver features Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee, ensuring performance that exceeds industry standards.The hitch is nice but….. shipping is not cool. Just wrapped in plastic wrap. All the edges need repainted. Bummer.
Excellent customer service by Troy H. at etrailer. Installed hitch on 2003 dodge ram 1500 SLT crew cab, 4.7L V8, bed size was 78". Instructions stated no drilling required for my truck, however, I had to drill 4 holes. It wasn't difficult, but, was challenging because I didn't have any help to install. UPS also damaged hitch during delivery, but, I had to move forward with the install.
I was pleased with the shipping time, with in the week I placed my order.
The reason for a 3 star is that the packaging ( clear plastic) was torn open ,and multiple chips in the black powder coating.

Sorry to say, but it did not work out at all. It the description it only tells customer that it fits under the stock hitch at the bottom of page. I did not want to see two recivers on the back of my truck. And etrailer only offered to send a can of paint to fix the chips from poor packaging. It now has a dusty home in the did not work section of the shop.
This was easy to install! I will feel alot better when pulling my camper with this hitch! Great product!
Installation was simple. we only had to drill one hole per side.
Very durable hitch at a very good price, very fast shipping too
Looks good not shipped the greatest was wrapped not in box during shipping got wrapping ripped and some of the paint in now missing on hitch had to make sure bolts and nut were still there due to the plastic being ripped
Great hitch. The only thing that I had an issue was installing the rear most bolts, right at the read bumper mounts, once I loosened those bolts the hitch lined up just fine. Be for warmed the rear bumper can drop down. We feel much better towing our travel trailer now. The truck looks good with it there, other than having two 2" receiver tubes there. One of the best upgrades we done.
Package was broken upon delivery. Part too heavy for the box it was shipped in. No damage to the product, however.
Solid hitch and very easy to install
Great customer service, Great product, Quick delivery, Good reference videos available. Only issue was video shows NO drilling required.... use existing holes in frame! 07 Dodge Ram has to have holes drilled in frame!!! NO biggie, just sayin!!!

Great
Install went fairly smoothly. I did have to widen the holes on my existing trailer hitch cross bar to fit the two 9/16 bolts through. I assume my hitch could be slightly tweaked from years of towing causing them not to line up well. I like how this hitch cross bar sits higher than other brands on here.
I have always purchased towing and accessories from etrailer. This is the third truck I have put a hitch on. The product was great however the quality assurance of the packaging was lacking as I was given the incorrect nuts. Two of the four nuts were fine threaded instead of national coarse. This led to an issue mid-way through my install. The nuts only costed$ 2.00, but the time it consumed to retrieve them was frustrating .
Product excellent and built very well and it fit perfect under my factory hitch on my 2008 dodge ram the only reason it only got 4 stars cause it was a little tricky getting the bolts in the truck frame to mount the hitch and it took a little time but there probably is no cure for that problem just a little patience.
I have had this hitch for a year now. I have pulled campers, car trailers and dump trailers as much as 10,000 lbs with no issues. It was easy to install only took about an hour. I am very happy with this purchase.
excellent product, installation was easy. If there were more fish wires added to kit it would have made it easier.
The hitch worked well (5 stars) the packaging was poor so a lot of the paint was knocked off of the edges, so I had to buy paint to touch it up. etrailer offered to send a touch-up kit but I needed to install it the next day.
This is heavy duty. It has worked for everything I need it for.
Install was pretty easy and instructions were straight forward.
The only complaint is that after being installed I noticed the receiver was welded a little at an angle which puts the ball a little of center. Not noticeable when towing but aesthetically annoying if your looking at it.
Did not fit was told by etrail I would have to pay $[XX] in freight to return it. I don't shop at etrailer anymore
Put on my 05 dodge power wagon for piece of mind for a long trip from ohio to wyoming pulling 26 foot travel trailer. Checked bolts a few times. Everything seem good. Help putting it would be a plus!
Holds up really well! Was able to pull a car across the country with this bad boy! Only note would be that the box it came in was torn to shreds when it got to me. But no damage to the frame so I’m happy. Tanks.
Customer service was excellent. Like many others mentioned the packing job was pretty bad . Lots of paint missing and pretty beat up when I received it . My pickup is a farm truck so that didn’t bother me but if you have a super nice pickup it would bother some people. I plan on spraying some paint over those areas to keep from rusting. I have bought a few things from etrailer and I will continue to do business with them . Overall I am happy
The package was delivered in a reasonable amount of time and I'm having it installed this morning. I was surprised that they got an item that big delivered to me in good time.
got what i ordered quickly. everything fit. good instructions.draw tite makes a nice product.
