Draw-Tite Tested Tough
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.

The fit was great! All of the needed hardware was there. It was taped to the hitch receiver and even though the box was in rough shape when we received the hitch, we were glad the hardware was taped to the hitch so it didn't fall out of the box.

perfect fit super easy install had all necessary fasteners for the job and good instructions. definitely would recommend.

You guy's knocked it out of the park on this one. Arrived in a beat up box due to the weight and shipping, not a problem (no damage and everything was there). I took a short glance at the instruction's ( simple and easy to understand). Grabbed my creeper and floor jack, socket, extension and ratchet. Installed bolts in frame, balanced the hitch on my floor jack and up it went. Bolt's lined up perfect. I'm 67 year's old and I did this by myself in about 15-20 minutes. Fast shipping, excellent quality, easy to install it just dose not get any better. Thank You!

Good hitch for a decent price.

I ordered a max frame trailer hitch. I am so impressed with with both the hitch and the delivery time. I received the order 2 days after I ordered it. If I could give more than a five star rating, I would. I will order all my needs from here in the future. Thank you again.

Super easy to install. I did have my son thread the first nut on but after that it was a one man job.

fit perfect. looks good. and a good price. was able to buy a wiring "splitter" {brakes,signals and idle lights} at my local auto store. got it all installed. need to torque everything still. it was a satisfying installation, on my dodge ram from 95.
if i may recommend something, on your website to 'suggest' buying kits for wiring in trailer lights. kind of like how other websites uses the "buyers also get this" right under the product

That would be a super convenient feature to have! The trouble is, this particular hitch fits many different model year Ram trucks, but the wiring harness can vary from model year to model year, or it can vary according to how the vehicle is equipped. This is why at the top of the home page for our website, we have a fitguide where you can input your vehicle year, make and model. As you work your way through, you can choose the correct parts for your vehicle depending on how its equipped.

2001 Dodge Ram Pickup
This is a great receiver for light weight duty. I bought it for my boat and it tows well.
It may be just certain models but as was stated previously - I did have to drill the 2 forward holes on my 2001 Ram 1500 short bed. It wasn't too much of a problem except on the passenger side where the muffler is in the way. Just unscrew the hanger and move out of the way. Drilled a 1/16 pilot hole then used my step drill to finish - added about 45 mins to the install. Other than that the receiver is perfect for what I needed.
by: Jtm11/12/2019
Bought this to haul my dirt bike around on a motorcycle rack. Works great. No problems at all. Great service from etrailer as usual.
by: Jeffrey 06/28/2020
My hitch came to my house in only a couple days. I wanted one that didn't require any drilling or moving the spare tire and this one worked perfectly. I would highly recommend etrailer to anyone needing a hitch or accessories.

1999 Dodge Ram Pickup
I rated this the way I did because the product description said "no drilling required". I found this WAS NOT the case with the hitch that I received. The four rear holes lined up with the holes in the frame of my truck, however, the 2 front holes did not and needed to be drilled. This was a big step that I was not prepared for with a cordless drill and dull drill bits...

The product fit perfectly and looks good, the only problem was that on my 1998 Dodge 1500 Sport 6 1/2 foot bed that the hole for mounting on the frame toward the front of the vehicle had to be drilled and on the passenger side the exhaust was in the way and had to buy a $20 extended drill bit to drill the hole in the frame. Other than that everything went fine.

Thank you Carol C, I did recieve my hitch this afternoon. I am 70 years old, and have COPD, with oxygen 24/7. The hitch fit perfectly on my 96 Dodge Ram 1500. I installed the hitch by myself in 35 minutes. I am grateful for your superb service. Than you, Terry Watson.
by: Wallace05/06/2021
Ok, I’m impressed. Someone said it was a 30 minute job. Wrong. Took me 15. Had one bolt not wanting to go in. One push with a small pry bar and everything dropped into place. Torqued it up to specs, installed the ball and was done in less time than it takes to write this. Rarely impressed with manufacturers claims but this one is spot on. No drill, no trouble, no problem. Thanks for a good product.
by: Gene09/29/2018
Trailer hitch works excellent. It's been 1 year and haven't had any issue. It was very easy to install and looks good. Thank you!

See what our Experts say about this Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch
- What are the Dimensions of 75101The hitch is 37" wide and 21" deep. The mounting holes are 9.5",14.75" and 19" from the end of the receiver tube opening and 5" less than that to the face of the cross tube. I have included a photo with all of these measurements listed. The hitch is designed to fit all models of the 1994-2001 Dodge Ram Trucks and the 2002 2500/3500 Dodge Ram trucks.
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Compatibility with 2002 Dodge Ram 2500The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75101 will not fit models with the roll pan bumper. This bumper is molded and normally painted to match the truck and be flush with the tailgate like the attached photo. Your bumper is not a roll pan based on your question, so you can use the Draw-Tite # 75101.

view full answer... - Draw Tite Hitch Recommendation for a 1998 Dodge Ram Sport 4x4 with Factory Roll PanIf you have a 6 foot or 8 foot bed with the standard or step bumper then the Draw-Tite Hitch part # 75101 would be the correct hitch for you. If you have a deep drop bumper then you would want the Draw Tite Hitch part # 41504. I attached a picture of what a deep drop bumper typically looks like for you to determine if you have it or not. Both of these hitches are Class III and would work well for you.

- Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 1998 Dodge RamThe factory tow package usually contains both a trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness so I will assume these are the parts you are referring to but for future reference they do not always contain the same components. The trailer hitch from your 2000 Dodge Durango WILL NOT fit your 1998 Dodge Ram as they do not share the same frame but I do have an option for you. For your Ram I recommend using the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75101 which is a custom fit and has a...
view full answer... - Cost Effective Trailer Hitch for a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500The rear bumper support tube is not present on a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 therefore you cannot use the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E98852 or one similar for that matter. Instead, you will need to use a frame mount trailer hitch like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75101. The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver installs using pre-drilled holes in the frame. It comes with all of the hardware required to do so. I have attached a copy of the installation...

This Class III hitch is confirmed to fit your Dodge Ram with the step bumper and will use existing holes in the truck's frame for a no-drill installation. This hitch will provide you with a 2 inch receiver opening and a 5,000 pound towing capacity. I have attached the written installation instructions that you can take a look at. The complete hardware kit will be included. If...
view full answer... - Where is Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2000 Dodge Ram Pickup MadeThe Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75101 you were looking at is designed in the USA but produced in Mexico. If you are wanting a trailer hitch receiver made in the USA I have a few options. I recommend the B&W Heavy-Duty Trailer Hitch Receiver # BWHDRH25132 as it is the only USA made trailer hitch receiver for your 2000 Dodge Ram Pickup that does not require drilling and will fit both long and short bed models with the standard or step rear bumper. If you are ok with an...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 Conversion VanI have another option for you, but the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75101 you were looking at is only confirmed to fit select Dodge Ram Pickup trucks and will not fit your 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 Van. Instead I recommend the Draw-Tite # 75140 which is confirmed to fit your Ram 1500 Van and has the same 500lb tongue weight rating and 5000lb trailer weight rating as the # 75101. This hitch would be perfect for carrying a bike rack, cargo carrier, or ball mount for towing a trailer. If...
view full answer... - Aftermarket Hitches Compatible with TorkLift Rear Camper Tie Down TLR3500If your 1999 Dodge Ram 3500 is an 8-foot bed without a board or step underneath truck bed and with a non-Torklift aftermarket hitch, then you will use TorkLift rear camper tie-down kit # TLR3500 that you referenced. All aftermarket trailer hitch fits for the long bed with standard/step bumper are shown on the linked page. Among these are Class III hitch # 75101 from Draw-Tite, Class IV hitch # 14001 from Curt, and Class V hitch # BWHDRH25132.
view full answer... - Parts Needed For Tekonsha Prodigy P2/P3 Trailer Brake Controller on 2001 Ram 1500 No Tow PackageI do see where you got the Receiver # 75101 from us but I do not see exactly what Hopkins 7-way you got for your 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. I'm going to assume you got the 7-Way # 37185 as it is one of the most commonly used. To install the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 or P3 # 90195(which would be my preference) you would also need the Wiring Kit # 5506 which contains wiring for both the charge line and brake controller along with circuit breakers to protect from shorts or surges.

If your just looking for an attachment point for your bike racks, a Class III hitch like the Draw-Tite Class III hitch, part # 75101 would work great for you. If you were looking for something smaller, the Curt # E-3S might be a fit if you have bolt holes that line up and enough available space on the underside of your step bumper.

- Capacity of Hitch 75101 Using Weight Distribution to Tow an RV with a 2000 Dodge RamThe Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75101, is rated high enough (8,000 pounds GTW with WD). The limiting factor is how much your vehicle can tow. Check your owners manual to see what the towing capacity of your vehicle is and do not exceed it. I have included a link to the instructions for this hitch below. When towing that much weight, I recommend using a brake controller if you do not already have one. One of our most popular models is the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller # 90885-3020-P....
