Draw-Tite Tested Tough

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.


etrailer.com Technical Support

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.

Another successful order and install from etrailer.com! Always fast shipping and excellent installation guide videos! Installed on 2021 JL Wrangler EcoDiesel.

Tip for EcoDiesel specific install -- drop the DEF tank a bit to access the bolt holes easier!



by:

This Draw-Tite hitch is both high quality and easy to install. The 6 3/8” extended receiver brings the 2” opening closer to the edge of the spare tire than any other hitch I’ve seen.

This is a great hitch! Been using it for the last year with absolutely no problems. We towed our 20 ft camper home from Ohio to Florida thru the mountains and to a few more places around the state. Since it’s installed on my 2016 Jeep Wrangler, it’s also been used to pull stuck vehicles out of the sand at the beach. It’s worked great thru every situation. Best investment I’ve ever made.



by:
2010 Jeep Wrangler

Very easy to install! I believe etrailer rating the difficulty as a 3 out of 10. I would say more like a 1 or a 2. I have a 2020 Jeep Wrangler unlimited. The video on the etrailer site for this hitch used a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, which had an extra piece that my jeep does not have. Additionally, the instructions that came with the hitch noted that I would have to lower the jeep muffler to install the hitch. This was not necessary.

I think this hitch will serve my purposes well going forward.

I used this hitch for a 3000 mile, three-month trip with several stops during early 2023. This hitch was for a bike rack to carry two bikes. No complaints, worked well.



by:

Great hitch! Seems to have been constructed well and has a great finish on it. Installed easily on my 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport in less than an hour. Tricky part was getting the nuts started on the bolts. I used a magnet for this part. I was also able to do the install without having to drop the exhaust, which an installation video recommended doing. Item was packaged well and delivered when anticipated.

Install was as easy as taking 20 minutes out of my lunch hour to bolt this thing to the back of my Jeep. It's been on there a year, I have used it a LOT, on pavement and off road, and it still looks new. Big thumbs up.

Jeep Wrangler

Great hitch for the money. It fit my Wrangler JL with no issue, other than it was a little tight to get it fitted, nothing a rubber mallet and a little patience couldn't solve. It performs great and is a lot more cost effective than the factory hitch in my opinion.



by:

Excellent. Meets expectations

2020 JeepWrangler Unlimited

While the hitch itself is perfect and as described, there was little left of the shipping box when it was delivered. The hitch was not bent, but I am glad the bolt kit was in a sealed plastic bag as we were lucky for it to still be in the badly ripped and opened shipping box. When shipping something of this weight, a heavier duty shipping container is in order.

Air lift installed on a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JKU with a 4” lift. Alison B put wanted to make sure I got the right bags and put me in touch with Air Lift who helped me get the correct bags. It was easier and quicker to remove rear springs and install the bags, just remember to apply lubricant to help with installation. Alison B was great to work with and extremely helpful in making sure I got the right parts. I have done business with etrailer in the past and will continue to use them in the future.

Bought this for my 2020 Jeep JLU so I could utilize a bike rack. Received the hitch very quickly and Installation was a breeze. Works as expected.



by:
2021 JeepWrangler Unlimited

The Draw-Tite Hitch, when I opened the box, arrived bent on one side. I debated to return it however I was with some mechanic friends who said let's just bend it back and put it on. Once we were able to get it on, eliminating the big welds on the rear beam for the bumper, it installed perfectly. I'm sure I wil now be happy with the product.

I will have our customer service team reach out to you. It sounds like that the side brackets were knocked out of alignment which can happen while in transit to our facility or to you. We do have a FAQ that can assist with moving the side brackets of the hitch back into alignment.



by:

Easy to install and solid product. Video matched product and made install easy. Receiver extends far enough for accessories (glide away bike rack and cargo carrier). My selection was based on a etrailer video which was useful and informative.

Install notes: Video and included instructions conflict slightly on disposition of spacer plate and bolt selection (original jeep bolts vs those provided with the hitch). and torque specs for bolts. I went with the video for everything I could which was most helpful except for lack or torque spec guidance. Also the specific draw-tite part number in the video comparing hitch options for 2021 jeep has been discontinued and should be replaced with this part number.



by:
Jeep

Easy to follow instructions and hitch is as described. I’ve had it on my Jeep a year with no problems. Installed myself in about 2 hours. If that seems like a long time, I’m 120lb chick working on gravel by myself.



by:
2023 Jeep Wrangler

Exactly as described. Installation was very easy and took me less than 10 minutes.



by:

Great hitch! Use it for fishing rod holder and ice chest as I surf fish the beach!



by:
jeep Wrangler

Once I ground down the high weld ridge it slipped on easily. Used the two existing bolts that went into a bracket with welded nuts and two bolts that came with the hitch. Torqued everything to 65 and it’s good to go.
Took 3 hours because of the grinding.
Very nice hitch. Installed on a new 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe. Plug in hybrid.

I received my Draw-Tite hitch receiver quickly and I look forward to installing it. The how-to videos on the etrailer site are excellent.

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring Harness for a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Diesel
    I would be happy to help you set up your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Diesel for towing. You are going to need a hitch receiver, a couple of wiring harnesses, a brake controller, and a ball mount kit. For your hitch receiver I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver item # DT78MR. This is a custom fit hitch receiver that requires not cutting, drilling, or welding of your Jeep's frame. It is a class III hitch with a maximum gross trailer weight of 4,500 lbs and a maximum...

  • Long Ball Mount, Anti-Sway, Brake Controller & Transmission Cooler for 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    We can definitely help you out, and you are right about the factory tow package hitch on a 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited being a Class II hitch, though it also has a 2 inch receiver, which is an odd combo not seen on aftermarket hitches. That said, if your current hitch is bolted on (and not welded) I highly recommend replacing it with an aftermarket hitch, the Class III Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT78MR. This hitch is compatible with a weight distribution system, and that is definitely...

  • Recommended Hitch-Mounted Cargo Carrier For 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The reason you don't see any hitch-mounted cargo carriers for your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is because hitch cargo carriers are not vehicle-specific and will basically fit most any vehicle with a trailer hitch receiver. If you do not have a trailer hitch receiver on your Jeep yet then I recommend going with Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # DT78MR. This has the highest weight rating compared to other hitch receivers that fit your vehicle, rated...

  • Will the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 Fit a 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Unlimited
    In order to use the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE part # HLY84FR on your 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Unlimited you will need to make sure you have at least 7-1/2" from the center of your hitch pin hole to the outer edge of your spare tire. The factory trailer hitch has a rather recessed hitch pin hole so you might be able to gain more clearance by installing the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # DT78MR which measures 1" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer edge...

The etrailer item # e98856 is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity and a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight.

  • How to Carry 2 e-Bikes When Towing Camper with 2018 Jeep Rubicon JL Unlimited
    I do have a potential solution for you, however if the trailer manufacturer lists a 100 pound tongue weight capacity for the rear hitch on the Intech Rover, you won't be able to transport both your e-bikes on the trailer. You are always going to be limited by the weakest component, so even if the hitch itself is rated for more (or you replace it with an even stronger trailer hitch), you still need to adhere to the 100 pound capacity listed in the trailer specs. Your best option for transporting...

The correct part number for your '22 Wrangler is the following: - T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118786 The # 118786 is a really smart choice for a wiring harness on your Jeep because we have found over time that Tekonsha makes the most reliable trailer wiring harnesses in...

This is one of our more popular products, and it features Bestop premium sailcloth, which compared to vinyl or denim is more durable. It reduces road noise, and is mildew and UV resistant. This system also offers a built-in fold-back sunroof, and the side and rear curtains are removable to allow for additional air flow. It is available...

  • E-Bike Rack and Hitch Recommendation for 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 that you referenced is the e-bike rack I recommend for your Electra Townie e-bikes. This rack has a frame clamp design that works well with the often oddly shaped bike frames of e-bikes, has the weight capacity for the heavier bikes, and unlike other options comes with a ramp that stores on the rack to make loading and unloading the bikes easier as well. You will need to have a trailer hitch installed on your 2020 Jeep Wrangler that has a long shank...

The cradles on the SportRack Ridge Swing can be adjusted so you could easily align these with the cross section of the Thule Tram. If you don't already have a trailer hitch, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # DT78MR is a fit for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler and has the longest receiver tube so it will be best for spare tire clearance...

These are pretty similar to each other and do have the same weight capacities, but the safety chain loops and wire harness are in different locations. Between the two, I prefer the # DT78MR, but that is just personal preference.
