Tech Tip

Hitch receiver tube is longer than the other Curt hitches and will extend farther out from the vehicle so accessories such as bike racks and cargo carriers extend past the spare tire. No drilling required for installation , Exhaust must be temporarily lowered for installation , Any obstructions on the cross member, such as excess welding, will need to be removed for installation

Great product . Arrived sooner than expected . Easiest installation I’ve ever done. Hold up and bolt on, did not need to remove muffler.

Working as it should, no issues . Great product.

Product packaging for shipping is probably the worst I've seen. Box was delivered damaged with a hole (opening) to the inside of the box. Opened the box and there was absolutely no padding whatsoever. Bag holding the assembly hardware was open. Bolts, nuts, and washers were loose within the box. And, to top it off, some of the installation hardware is missing. Most likely fell out of the hole in the packaging. Who in their right mind would think it's okay to package goods for shipping in this manner? This was my first and possibly my last purchase from etrailer.

I am sorry to hear that your order was not secured properly during the shipment. Let me get you over to customer service for them to get this corrected for you.

Fast and free shipping!! Product as advertised and easy to install. My wife was very happy with the little surprise in the box for her new Jeep Wrangler. She had always wanted a Jeep and your surprise made her so happy! Thank you!

Our hitch has been great, it arrived quickly and very nicely packaged with a surprise. It was easy to install, my wife did most of the install hherself.

2017 JeepWrangler

Installed on 2017 Jeep Wrangler 2 - door. Easy install. Factory bolts lined up with slotted hitch holes. Was able to get wrench up between hitch and muffler and did not need to take muffler off as suggested in the instructions. Make sure you have a torque wrench that goes to 110 ft/lbs. That is tight.



by:

great customer service. I needed a trailer hitch that was a little out of the ordinary. Etrailer told me what i needed to know. In fact they were the only people who would talk to me. The manufacturer, Curt would not give me any dimensions of there hitches. All they would say is "our hitches are designed to fit a particular vehicle". Maybe that's a CYA policy?
Also best price and speedy shipment.
Thanks guys

In the photo the hitch is just sitting on top of the bumper. I have yet to mount it.



by:

Not so quite perfect fit after some “wrangling” around and some hammering on a folded towel over each side of the hitch.



by:

The hitch was installed with no problems. The brake buddy was short on wiring instructions. The diagram was not clear and the written instructions stopped short of explaining how the wires come together. Had to watch the video to finish. But, it all worked out well.



by:

The hitch receiver fit per the original from the factory but there was not two holes for the mounting of the wiring harness bracket, just one hole so the wiring harness bracket is supported with just one bolt rather the intended two bolts.



by:

We both this hitch to add to our 2020 wrangler jlu so we can pull the skis. Needless to say it was a perfect fit and came with all the hardware necessary to install. Highly recommend this hitch.



by:
2016 JeepWrangler

Well built unit, fit perfect, hardware included.



by:

Looks a lot better built than factory. Just what I needed.



by:

Had to install 2” drop extender to be able to open the tailgate and it came out great.

Etrailer Expert

Keep in mind, installing any extender will lower the tongue weight capacity of the hitch listed on ID sticker affixed to hitch by half.

2021 JeepWrangler

Easier with two people. Product as advertised. Would recommend/purchase again.



by:

Great qualifications, easy install. I have a Jeep JL wrangler Sahara so the outside bolts were already present with the welded on nuts.on a plate behind the cross member. Just lightly pries out the plate, Slipped the hitch between it and the cross member. And threaded the bolts tbrough. Use the original bolts as they are a different thread and head size.

Wonderful quality and great finish. No grinding, pounding, or retrofitting needed. Slipped right in.



by:

Hi,

I’m trying to install this
hitch but when I went under, I saw these two screws (see attached). I’m not sure what it is and if it’s ok to remove, install the hitch and put it back. I have a 2018 JL Rubicon unlimited.

Please advise

Etrailer Expert

I spoke with my representative in the tech services department at Curt Manufacturing and was told that its perfectly acceptable to remove the 2 bolts shown in the photos you provided and substituting them with the bolts provided with the hitch.



by:

Great service, very expedient with shipping. Courteous and professional staff. My go to place for trailer parts and vehicle accessories!!



by:

Fit like a glove !!!!!! Never had to move the exhaust muffler off the hangers !!!!!!! Plenty of room for the bolts. Used a short 3/4 inch socket on a torque wrench with again plenty of room !!!!!!

Awesome service and product.

Product works well with my 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4xe. etrailer was great in helping to ensure that this product would actually work with my Jeep. Thank you!



by:
2020 JeepWrangler

Hitch receiver fit perfectly onto my 2020 Jeep Wrangler. Used my floor jack and a scrap piece of 2in x 6in board to provide a steady platform to literally jack my hitch receiver into place. Had an interesting time trying to torque bolts to XXX ft-lbs, but I got it done. Excellent fit and finish!!



by:
2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

Hitch arrived on time, the black finish stands out and accents my Black Jeep. Hitch is long enough from the bumper that my bike rack doesn't hit the spare tire. Would recommend this product.



by:
2022 JeepWrangler

The hitch I originally ordered was no longer being made so Etrailer recommended this one. They made the process really easy to get the old order cancelled and new one placed.

As far as this hitch goes, install takes about 10 mins. As others have mentioned, the fit is tight and you’ll need a mallet or hammer. I got the driver side on, set the bolt loosely, and hammered the passenger side on and installed the other 3 bolts. With the driver side bolt set, everything lined up perfectly once hammered on.

This hitch does allow me to attach my Yakima EXO carrier with the cargo box and the rear door opens completely. It did not require a hitch extension like the factory hitch does so this one will be a better option if you’re trying to add the EXO system and don’t want to lose carrying capacity by adding an extension to your receiver.



by:

The best service period bar none thanks for he duck



by:

Super easy installation. As another reviewer stated, 110 lbs of torque was the only challenge without a lift. I did it all from underneath on my back. No need to drop the muffler.



by:
2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Unlimited

One side of the hitch would not slide all the way up the bumper beam. Had to use a hammer and some hard strikes to get it all the way up.

  • Curt vs. etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The only difference between the Curt and etrailer trailer hitch receivers that fit your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the power coat finish on the hitch: - Matte Black: etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98856 - Gloss Black: Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13392 Apart from that the hitches have the same ratings, install, and clearances. I like the matte black more because it hides scratches and dings better than the glossier finish (plus it looks a bit more rugged). Otherwise, if the...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Jeep Wrangler
    The best hitch for your 2023 Jeep Wrangler is the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13392. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Jeep with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight. Please note that this hitch will not fit the Ecodiesel models. You would want item # C63FV instead. I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get this hitch set up. If you are planning on towing...

  • What is the Difference Between the Curt C13392 and the etrailer e98856 for My 2022 Jeep Wrangler?
    For your 2022 Jeep Wrangler, the only difference between the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish # e98856 and the Curt Hitch # C13392 is that the Curt hitch comes with a higher-quality gloss outer coating over the base powder coat than the etrailer hitch. This ultimately provides you with more protection against rust and corrosion. Other than that difference, these hitches are exactly the same. With this in mind, I recommend the Curt hitch because of the higher-quality...

    Hey Steve, so between the hitches that fit your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Sahara the etrailer part # e98856 and the Curt # C13392 have the exact same dimensions, and the Draw Tite part # DT78MR is slightly different. The only real difference is the length of the hitch tube. The Curt/etrailer sticks out a little further whereas the Draw Tite is a litte more recessed. From the end of the hitch tube to the first mounting flange the Draw Tite sticks out 6-1/2 inches whereas the Curt/etrailer has...

  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler
    I 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....

  • Will The Curt Hitch # C13392 Fit Over A 2" Rectangular Tube
    The width of the mounting channel on the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13392 is 3-1/2". So it will technically fit over a 2" wide rectangular tube, but you will have 1-1/2" of extra space to fill. This will be the same for the other two hitches you mentioned. All of these are custom fit hitches made for certain jeep models. They may work for the purpose of bolting to the rectangular tube in your picture, but some modification will certainly be required.

It will not slip over the bracket you reference so it is not a fit for your specific vehicle due to that bracket.

  • Will the Swagman E-Spec Electric Bike Rack Work On Motorhome With Dual Hitch and Towed Vehicle?
    The Swagman E-Spec Electric Bike Rack part # S94FR is rated for use on both motorhomes and flat-towed vehicles so there will be no issues there. It will allow you to carry both an e-bike and standard bike as well. The heavier bike would need to be carried in the cradle closest to the shank. The Curt item # C13392 you referenced has plenty of capacity to support this bike rack. Yes, the lower receiver would want to be used for the tow bar and the upper receiver for the bike rack.
