This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.The installation went better than I thought it would, but only after I also viewed the installation video on etrailer.com for the Draw-Tite hitch. I was alone so the install took a little longer, ~1.5 hrs. I’m grateful God gave me the idea to use close pins (see pics) to keep the carriage bolts from accidentally pushing back up into the uni-body as I lifted the hitch off my chest and into position.
Hitch is great. Only issue I have with it is it slightly point down so my Kuate bike attachment looks like it’s sagging from a side view. Other than that easy install good quality. May add washers to the front and middle bolts to try and level it out. Also maybe opening of hitch is slightly larger. Mounted on my Tahoe no sag looks level.
Thank you for checking.
It fit very good and it was easy to install. I'm Glad to have purchased it from you.
Just purchased on sale !! Waited and was glad. It came with everything I needed accept the wiring for lights. Installed & torqued bolts & red lick tight in 25 minutes. Super easy. Watch there video it really helps. Thanks again awesome purchased. Can’t say enough good things ! Shipping fast ! As well.
"5stars" i got my hitch reciever today i installed it in about 1/2 hour . it looks great and was a great price also very sturdy .. Im very happy , thanks alot!!!
Very easy to install. The product is of high quality and very well built. Highly recommend! I will recommend to include a longer cable for washers and bolts. Other than that it is great!
Always excellent selection, excellent prices, and fast & reliable shipping! Love etrailer!!
My Curt hitch went on with no trouble at all. Fishing the bolts was a little difficult, not with the hitch but with my Escape, some idiot at the Ford factory filled the end of the frame that I had to pull the bolts thru with foam half full. The hitch is solid and fit perfectly on my car. Great price, Thanks

Like I said, I havent used it yet but its still on my Escape and looks good, no sign of rust yet. Thanks.
I am very pleased with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver and the ball mount I ordered . I use my trailer frequently to haul lumber, fencing, and riding lawnmower, the product is of good quality and I recommend etrailer
This heavy duty Curt hitch fit perfectly on my 2004 Ford Escape. Great price for a quality product that shipped out on time for free. I installed it myself after watching others do it on Youtube. The included instructions could be much better but watching the videos saved me. Also having some extra help lift and hold the hitch in place to bolt it on would be nice. Be careful not to push and lose the loose bolts back up into the frame when attempting to mount the hitch. I prevented this by wrapping a thin wire around the top of each bolt stem to prevent them from going back up into the frame. Once the nuts were attached I simply pulled the wires off and finished tightening the nuts. I also bought a light wire kit that worked out fine.
As a professional mechanic I can say this is a very easy and quick install. Took about 20 minutes to install by myself, everything fit properly, and no special tools or drilling required. My motorcycle carrier fits perfect.
Great receiver. Tow our trailer-tri sailboat all the time with it. Install was easy and so well matched it looks professional. Fit and finish top quality.
Highly recommend this to anyone with basic mechanical skills, a couple hours sparw time and the desire to save hundreds over pro install.
works great im towing a popup it sits level tracks great good hitch
Looks good, fits perfectly. Installation instructions aren't the best but help from etrailer YouTube video made it easy. Overall I am very satisfied!
Took me 20 min to install. Fish wire that comes with the hitch worked great for installing the carriage bolts. Hitch is high quality and fit perfectly.
Great hitch easy to install very happy with the product and really fast delivery great customer service. Good Job!!!!!! Thanks, Jesse T.
Great product. Easy to install. Wiring harness was a snap. Highly recommend!
Was easy to bolt on and haven't had any problems. Has worked well on my 2003 Ford escape, thank you and,price was good.
The instructions were not as clear as they could have been, I had to enlarge one hole on each side which was not hard. Besides that everything went very smoothly and everything bolted right up.
Very pleased with the speed of delivery. I had a problem with a vender but etrailer took care of it and kept in communication with me through the whole situation. Would highly recommend this company.
Streamlined design. Solid construction. Easy installation.
Easy to install
