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 hitch is nice but….. shipping is not cool. Just wrapped in plastic wrap. All the edges need repainted. Bummer.

Excellent customer service by Troy H. at etrailer. Installed hitch on 2003 dodge ram 1500 SLT crew cab, 4.7L V8, bed size was 78". Instructions stated no drilling required for my truck, however, I had to drill 4 holes. It wasn't difficult, but, was challenging because I didn't have any help to install. UPS also damaged hitch during delivery, but, I had to move forward with the install.

Hitch is working perfectly and am very satisfied with the purchase from etrailer.



by:

I was pleased with the shipping time, with in the week I placed my order.
The reason for a 3 star is that the packaging ( clear plastic) was torn open ,and multiple chips in the black powder coating.

Sorry to say, but it did not work out at all. It the description it only tells customer that it fits under the stock hitch at the bottom of page. I did not want to see two recivers on the back of my truck. And etrailer only offered to send a can of paint to fix the chips from poor packaging. It now has a dusty home in the did not work section of the shop.

Installation was simple. we only had to drill one hole per side.

This was easy to install! I will feel alot better when pulling my camper with this hitch! Great product!

Very durable hitch at a very good price, very fast shipping too

Looks good not shipped the greatest was wrapped not in box during shipping got wrapping ripped and some of the paint in now missing on hitch had to make sure bolts and nut were still there due to the plastic being ripped

Package was broken upon delivery. Part too heavy for the box it was shipped in. No damage to the product, however.

Solid hitch and very easy to install



by:
2007 Dodge Ram Pickup

Great hitch. The only thing that I had an issue was installing the rear most bolts, right at the read bumper mounts, once I loosened those bolts the hitch lined up just fine. Be for warmed the rear bumper can drop down. We feel much better towing our travel trailer now. The truck looks good with it there, other than having two 2" receiver tubes there. One of the best upgrades we done.



by:
2007 Dodge Ram Pickup

Great customer service, Great product, Quick delivery, Good reference videos available. Only issue was video shows NO drilling required.... use existing holes in frame! 07 Dodge Ram has to have holes drilled in frame!!! NO biggie, just sayin!!!

Great



by:
2005 Dodge Ram Pickup

Install went fairly smoothly. I did have to widen the holes on my existing trailer hitch cross bar to fit the two 9/16 bolts through. I assume my hitch could be slightly tweaked from years of towing causing them not to line up well. I like how this hitch cross bar sits higher than other brands on here.



by:

I have had this hitch for a year now. I have pulled campers, car trailers and dump trailers as much as 10,000 lbs with no issues. It was easy to install only took about an hour. I am very happy with this purchase.



by:
2007 Dodge Ram Pickup

I have always purchased towing and accessories from etrailer. This is the third truck I have put a hitch on. The product was great however the quality assurance of the packaging was lacking as I was given the incorrect nuts. Two of the four nuts were fine threaded instead of national coarse. This led to an issue mid-way through my install. The nuts only costed$ 2.00, but the time it consumed to retrieve them was frustrating .



by:
2005 Dodge Ram Pickup

On time and right product.



by:

excellent product, installation was easy. If there were more fish wires added to kit it would have made it easier.



by:
2008 Dodge Ram Pickup

Product excellent and built very well and it fit perfect under my factory hitch on my 2008 dodge ram the only reason it only got 4 stars cause it was a little tricky getting the bolts in the truck frame to mount the hitch and it took a little time but there probably is no cure for that problem just a little patience.



by:
2003 Dodge Ram Pickup

Did not fit was told by etrail I would have to pay $[XX] in freight to return it. I don't shop at etrailer anymore



by:

Holds up really well! Was able to pull a car across the country with this bad boy! Only note would be that the box it came in was torn to shreds when it got to me. But no damage to the frame so I’m happy. Tanks.



by:

The hitch worked well (5 stars) the packaging was poor so a lot of the paint was knocked off of the edges, so I had to buy paint to touch it up. etrailer offered to send a touch-up kit but I needed to install it the next day.



by:

This is heavy duty. It has worked for everything I need it for.
Install was pretty easy and instructions were straight forward.
The only complaint is that after being installed I noticed the receiver was welded a little at an angle which puts the ball a little of center. Not noticeable when towing but aesthetically annoying if your looking at it.



by:
Dodge

Put on my 05 dodge power wagon for piece of mind for a long trip from ohio to wyoming pulling 26 foot travel trailer. Checked bolts a few times. Everything seem good. Help putting it would be a plus!



by:

Customer service was excellent. Like many others mentioned the packing job was pretty bad . Lots of paint missing and pretty beat up when I received it . My pickup is a farm truck so that didn’t bother me but if you have a super nice pickup it would bother some people. I plan on spraying some paint over those areas to keep from rusting. I have bought a few things from etrailer and I will continue to do business with them . Overall I am happy



by:

The package was delivered in a reasonable amount of time and I'm having it installed this morning. I was surprised that they got an item that big delivered to me in good time.



by:

got what i ordered quickly. everything fit. good instructions.draw tite makes a nice product.

  • Towing Capacity of a 2004 Dodge Ram Heavy Duty Pickup
    I can not speak for any manufacturers ratings either on your truck or on your OEM hitch. That being said you would need to talk to someone at the Chrysler/Dodge dealer to obtain the actual ratings on your hitch and truck. You should be able to find the tow ratings on your truck in the owners manual or inside the drivers door jamb. Also if you could find out the manufacturer of the hitch on your dodge that would help. Reese and Draw-Tite do extensive in-house testing that insures the hitches...

    You will definitely be able to install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Class V XD - 2" # C15409 on your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 yourself without the need for a professional. The reason for that is because no drilling is required to install the hitch, it will bolt on underneath your current trailer hitch, as you can see by the cut out of the linked installation instructions I added for you as well as a photo and review a customer sent in.

If your truck already has the factory hitch, you will need to go with the Draw-Tite Class IV, part # 41929. This hitch is designed to install so that the receiver sits below the factory receiver.

  • How Much Can a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.7L V8 Tow
    In order to find out if your vehicle is equipped to pull a certain trailer you will need to find the towing capacity of your vehicle and make sure the weight of the trailer does not exceed this figure. Now, there are several different towing capacities for a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.7L V8 that can range from 4,690 lbs to 9,150 lbs. If you can provide me with your cab style, transmission type, axle ratio, and gross combined weight rating (GCWR) then I could give you an exact capacity....

  • Does OEM Bumper Beam/Hitch Receiver Need to be Removed for Draw-Tite Hitch on 2008 Dodge Ram 1500

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 with Factory Trailer Hitch
    The factory hitch on the 2004 Dodge Ram is welded to the bumper beam on the truck. The bumper beam is a round, curved piece of steel. In order to remove the factory hitch it would have to be torched off and you would not want to cut off any of the bumper beam. The heat from cutting off the hitch could still affect the bumper beam so it is not advisable to remove the factory hitch. I recommend going with a hitch that is designed to fit beneath the factory hitch, like # 41929 that you have...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500
    According to the owner's manual for your 2005 Dodge Ram 1500, if you will be towing more than 5,000 lbs but not more than 12,000 lbs then you will need to use a class IV trailer hitch with a 2" receiver tube opening. For this, I recommend the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 41929 which has a maximum gross trailer weight rating of 12,000 lbs.

  • Ball Mount Options for a 2014 Ram 2500 With OEM Class V Trailer Hitch
    Most of the domestic truck manufacturers are putting Class V trailer hitches with a 2-1/2 inch receiver on their 3/4 ton trucks, including Dodge. This is mainly because they are building their trucks stronger and stronger each year and they need to install the equipment that can handle the higher capacities. You have a few different options when it comes to ball mounts and hitch balls. If you want to use your current equipment, you could use a reducer sleeve like part # C45405. This sleeve...

    Towing a fifth wheel trailer with a lifted vehicle such as yours does not work very well, and we do not recommend doing so. As you pointed out, the trailer will probably rub the bed of the truck or contact the tops of the bed rails, causing damage. Additionally, the lifted suspension could have altered the vehicle towing and load capacities. The trailer will also no longer be level which will make towing difficult and dangerous.
