Ordering was easy, the “how to” videos gave me the confidence to install items myself. Great communication, never once wondered where my order was. Placed order on a Saturday not expecting it to be processed until Monday. Pleasantly surprised to see emails that my order was received and being prepped for shipping!

The hitch is very solid. Great price. It was easy to install and fit perfectly to the bottom of the bumper. We will be towing our jet ski to the lake this summer!

Just installed. But was very easy on Our 2011 Jeep Wrangler 2 door. Little tight getting bolts between exhaust but a little tap with little hammer and they went right in. Don't tow much it's a "just in case purchase "

Very easy install. Love the fact that it is recessed under the bumper and out of the way when accessing the rear storage area of our 2020 Jeep Wrangler.

Just got it installed, much easier than expected. Product seems solid. If you're installing on a Jeep Wrangler with a tire on the back, then you'll also need to get an extender so you can clear the tire.

etrailer scores a 5Star rating again. I have used them multiple times and they are always professional. I’ve only needed assistance with one product and when I called I talked to an actual person! He helped me fix my problem and the hitch was perfect. My latest hitch for my Jeep Wrangler looks great as well

I ordered a hitch receiver to be installed on my 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited from the place that was installing it, but the one they ordered stuck out about 4” past my bumper. I immediately expressed dissatisfaction with how it looked & pointed out that it was a hazard whenever I open my rear door. I was ecstatic to find this hitch receiver on etrailer.com. I can’t wait for it to be installed tomorrow. Thank you etrailer.com.

I bought this trailer hitch after I watched an etrailer video on how to install it. It just arrived today and I am totally pleased with it. I’m going camping this weekend and I needed the hitch to haul some stuff on my trailer hitch rack. Thanks for the help.

Great product. Fairly easy to install but a little problem with getting the bolts in through all of the holes and it all lining up. I did not drop my muffler so it made it a bit more difficult. However fairly easy and a great, quick install!

I haven't used the hitch, but it is a Curt. It is solid and heavy and the normal high quality you get from Curt. That's about all I can say about the product since I haven't installed or used yet. I can give a review of etrailer. Read some good reviews and not so good reviews of etrailer. Decided to go with etrailer and give them a try. Same day shipping, fast shipping and courteous service. My experience overall; excellent.
by: Brian 08/06/2018
The hitch is nicely finished. The welds look good and it was very easy to install. It took all of 10 minutes to put on.

Works great. The hitch was easy to install. Dropping the exhaust turned out to be more challenging. Buy the tool to make that part smoother.

- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2023 Ford BroncoThe Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13432 you found is for Jeep Wranglers and will not be able to fit your 2023 Ford Bronco. While we currently have not received any updates that the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C76WR which fit the 2021 and 2022 model years will fit on the 2023. I took some measurements of the bolt hole pattern which you can compare to the holes on your Bronco to verify that it will fit. The inner holes are separated 3-1/4" and the outer holes are 2-3/8" on center from the...

- Curt Trailer Hitch # C13392 And # 13432 TW and GTW Capacities Hey Jeff, I doublechecked the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13392 and # 13432 as they are labeled with their capacities and also reached out to Curt for confirmation. After speaking with Curt we found that their website incorrectly listed the capacities lower than they actually are. They should be fixing this issue and we'll have it properly labeled on our site as well and updated in our answer pages to avoid further confusion. The # C13392 is rated for 500lbs TW / 5,000lbs GTW The...

- Recommended Hitch and Wiring Harness for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler I would be happy to make a couple for you! To add a hitch to your 2020 Jeep Wrangler, I recommend the Curt item # 13432. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Jeep super easy with four included bolts. It's got a 2" receiver with a 3,500 lbs towing capacity and a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight so it will be great for towing or trailer or using accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier. I have linked an installation video below to help you get this hitch set up. For a wiring harness,...
view full answer... - Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Jeep WranglerFirst let's start with a hitch on your 2012 Jeep Wrangler. For that I would recommend the Curt Hitch part # 13432 unless you already have one. Since you said that you have 7 inches from what I am assuming is the hitch opening to the spare. Because you need that much clearance you are going to have a hard time getting a platform bike rack to fit, but I do have a great option for you. My favorite 2 bike rack is the Saris SuperClamp EX 2 part # SA4025F because it's a platform bike rack which...
view full answer... - Best Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2018 Jeep JL WranglerI do have options for you but the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13432 is not a confirmed fit for a 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler. Instead, you will want to take a look at either the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13392 or the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # DT78MR. The above two options are both direct bolt-on fits that have a Class III rating with a 2" receiver tube opening. I recommend using the Draw-Tite Max-Frame as it is currently the more cost-effective option....

- Installation of Trailer Hitch on 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL with Additional Bracket at FrameThe Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" #36424 has been discontinued but was a fit for the standard bumper on a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL. It will not slip over the bracket you reference so it is not a fit for your specific vehicle due to that bracket. Instead I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13392 which doesn't have the weldnuts attached to the hitch. This will allow you to attach the hitch underneath the bracket...

- Recommended Curt Trailer Hitch for 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler SportYou can install the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118786 on your 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Sport so long as the flat tow wiring kit you used does not connect behind the tail lights, which you will need in order to install Harness # 118786. The diodes themselves will not be an issue as they are essentially just a gateway. A trailer hitch is also compatible with a flat tow set up and since you mentioned a Curt hitch I strongly recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch...

- Comparing Draw Tite and Curt Trailer Hitches for a 2016 Jeep Wrangler UnlimitedThe Curt hitch part # 13432 that you referenced has a shorter hitch tube than the Draw Tite part # DT78MR. Basically that means that the Curt hitch would be more recessed under the vehicle. While this may be more aesthetically appealing it also makes it harder for hitch accessories to clear past the rear spare on the vehicle. Both hitches are rated for the same weight capacities and would work well. The most popular option is definitely the Curt hitch.

I've attached a photo to show that install. It is the same exact bolt pattern as the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e98856 so I'm confident it will fit and work well for you.

I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

This fit is confirmed by Curt. I'm not certain where on our site you saw that the # 13432 was a fit for the 2021, but when I run your vehicle through our fit guide, the # 13432 doesn't show up as a fit. You can see an installation video for the # C13392 by using the provided link.

As long as you have the standard rear bumper. The Draw-Tite # DT78MR and the Curt # 13432 are both available. Out of the three I suggest the Draw-Tite because of the higher capacity. The wiring harness I recommend is # 118416. It installs by plugging in behind the driver's side tail light. You'll also need a ball mount and hitch ball.

This is a plug-in style harness that plugs into the connectors behind the driver's side tail light. I have attached the installation instructions and an installation video for you to check out. Next, you will want to add a 4-way to...

The etrailer hitch part # 13432 does fit your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a standard bumper and if you order it with the add to cart button, you'll get a new hitch. If you hit the "1 used item available" link you'll see an option to order the used item we have if available. I attached an install video for this hitch on a similar 2016 Jeep Wrangler.

The clearance of the etrailer hitch measures 7 inches while the clearance of the Curt hitch measures 10 inches. This measurement is important because you need to consider this length so that the shank on a trailer or...

It looks like you want an 8 inch extension and the Curt # C45791 was not the fit you desired. We have used this extension with other similar Curt products without issue (see photo), but we don't have the Neiko ball mount to confirm fit. It sounds like the ball mount may have a slightly longer shank behind the hitch pin holes than most, so I recommend trying a slightly longer extension like...

- Trailer Hitch Solution for Rockwood RVThe Curt hitch # 13432 is designed for a Jeep Wrangler but we do have the MultiFit RV Hitch # 13703 which would work great for your Rockwood as it was designed to fit the standard RV frames and has a wide frame width range. A frame mounted hitch is much more secure than one that attaches to a bumper.
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch and Two Bike Rack for 2013 Chevy EquinoxThe Curt Class III Trailer Hitch you referenced, part # 13432 is a fit for the 2007-2015 Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited, but we do indeed have a hitch for your 2013 Equinox. I'd recommend the Curt Class III # 13591. The Wrangler/Wrangler Unlimited already has a very strong bumper beam installed, which is why a very small hitch like the # 13432 can bolt up to it. The Equinox rear bumper isn't structured that way, which is why a more traditionally shaped hitch is used. If you don't...
view full answer... - Installation of Curt Class III Hitch # 13432 on 2014 Jeep WranglerThe Curt Class III Hitch # 13432 that you referenced is indeed a correct fit for your 2014 Jeep Wrangler. It is usually easier to access the hitch mounting points on the frame by temporarily lowering the exhaust from its rubber hanger. (You do not need to remove it completely.) For some this step will be necessary, for others perhaps not. It will certainly make things easier. This step is a function of the frame/exhaust placement, which is based on its model year.

view full answer... - Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2013 Jeep Wrangler UnlimitedThe anti-sway feature you have in the computer of your 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited would not be an adequate substitute for a brake controller for towing a trailer. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. To install the brake controller you will first need a 4-way if you do not have one. For that you would want the part # C55124. The next...
