Specs:
The EcoHitch Hidden trailer hitch is designed to be as inconspicuous as possible. The hitch's cross tube bolts onto your vehicle's frame, behind your rear bumper. No drilling or welding is required. Once the hitch is installed, only the receiver will be visible beneath your bumper. This means that your vehicle can maintain its stylish, from-the-factory look, and you won't have to do any major modifications to its body or frame.
With a combination of aerospace-grade aluminum, steel, and stainless steel, each EcoHitch is made of a strong metal alloy that will withstand the test of time. The lightweight alloy is composed of recycled materials. Traditional steel hitch manufacturing can use coal or oil, which can contribute to harmful gas emissions. The EcoHitch's recycled materials limit the carbon footprint during manufacturing, so you get a sturdy trailer hitch while also helping the environment.
This EcoHitch trailer hitch is tested for durability and sturdiness. Using Finite Elemental Analysis (FEA), individual points of stress on the hitch can be detected and remedied. Designers can accurately test the hitch to ensure that it will meet or exceed SAE J684 standards. The EcoHitch Hidden trailer hitch is carefully researched and strength tested for a durable, high-quality hitch that can resist damage while on the road.

This custom-fit trailer hitch with a hidden cross tube installs behind your vehicle's rear bumper, leaving only the receiver visible beneath it. Aluminum and steel alloy construction is durable and eco-friendly. Powder coat finish resists rust.I had to go with an EcoHitch because after ordering and partly installing a DrawTite, I found that one of the required nuts was missing on my Odyssey. I had to return the DrawTite and purchase the EcoHitch. After installing both hitches, I would recommend the DrawTite. It is easier to install, has a better finish and is much cheaper. I would give the DrawTite and Etrailer 5 stars. The staff at etrailer were excellent to work with. I would definitely recommend them to other.
This hitch is a quality product and we haven't had any issues with it one year into it. We had ours installed by a professional who neatly installed it behind our bumper so only the tow mount was showing. We got this trailer hitch because it worked with our minivan and it was rated appropriately for our bike rack which is designed for the extra weight of our electric bikes (Hollywood e-bike rack).
Very fast shipping. Easy to install. I just back my van onto a couple ramps and I was able to reach everything I needed under the van. The install videos posted on the site were very helpful. I am very happy with the final result.
The installation was straight forward, although due to the weight it's likely going to be a two man job. Once installed it's very sturdy and we've used it multiple times for trailers and carriers without issue.
The hitch works very well. I bought it because its well, hidden. My last hitch would drag when going up even low angle driveways. I have not had that issue with this design. I would buy it again.
Outstanding product that looks and fits great on our vehicle. Used for a bike rack which gives more room for people, pets and gear inside.
Installation video and instructions were very helpful. Very satisfied!
works great! You will need a little auto mechanic understanding on how to remove the bumper. But it was easy with a friend to put on

Had this hitch on for a year now and generally it has been working well. Have used it for a 4-bike rack exclusively so we have not towed with it. When loaded with 4 bikes, the receiver does slightly rotate downward which impacted our departure angle. Also, when the departure angle is extreme the receiver can scrape the road. This has happened only twice since we installed it and took place when the van was heavily loaded and had bikes on it vacation sag. I do not know how people get by with the hitch that fully hangs below the bumper. This one places the receiver where the stock one would reside so its the best alternative to the OEM hitch IMO. There is some light rust around the receiver and the bumper cover is slightly deformed around the underside of the rear. Otherwise, the hitch fits and functions well.
The hitch fit as it was advertised for our Honda Oddessy

Even though I would have preferred the DrawTite, the EcoHitch has worked very well. I have used it on two long trips and found it to meet my needs.
