Note: The included receiver attachment is only for hitch-mounted accessories and cannot be used for towing. To tow with this hitch, you must use the included ball mount attachment.


This Stealth Hitches trailer hitch includes everything you need to hook up your trailer for towing. The ball mount pops into the hitch's center block so you can attach your trailer's coupler to the hitch ball. The wiring harness lets you power your trailer's lights. And the safety chain loops let you attach your trailer's safety chains. A receiver attachment is included as well for those times you need to use a bike rack or cargo carrier instead of towing your trailer. This all-in-1 solution saves you the headache of scrambling for missing parts, so you can get on the road faster than ever.


Completely Hidden Design

Nothing can ruin the clean, stylish look of your vehicle like a giant piece of metal bolted beneath the bumper. Luckily, with the Stealth Hitches trailer hitch receiver, you never have to worry about messing up your vehicle's lines.


hitch in use comparison

This hitch installs behind your bumper, keeping the cross tube concealed and leaving only the ball mount visible. Even better, the ball mount can be easily removed from the cross tube when it's not in use, so you won't see any trace of the hitch. This means that you can retain that clean, from-the-factory look for your ride, while still being able to tow your trailer on the next family road trip.


This hitch also comes with a removable 2" square receiver, which can be used to mount any variety of hitch accessories, like your bike rack or cargo carrier.


Simple Set Up

Both the ball mount attachment and receiver attachment can be installed and removed in seconds with no tools required. Simply pop the selected attachment's base up into the stainless steel block at the center of the hitch until it automatically latches in place.


center block locking

Be sure to then press the lock on the side of the block to fully secure the attachment. When you're finished hauling, use the included key to unlock the latch. Then turn the handle on the block clockwise and remove the attachment. You can stow the attachments in a safe place like your vehicle's rear cargo area, or you can use a convenient carrying case (391CASEC - sold separately).


hitch plug and center block

And when you're not using an attachment, the included hitch plug covers the center block's opening to protect the hitch's body from dirt and debris.


Wiring Installation

wiring

The included wiring splices into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in your rear cargo area, on the driver's and passenger's sides. Once you've made all of the necessary connections, insert the provided fuse into the in-line fuse holder.


Once installation is complete, the 7-way connector will mount beneath your hitch. A mounting bracket is included to attach the connector to your hitch.


7 way connector on hitch

It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 7-way connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

Exact same hitch for exact same price as on the manufacturer's website; HOWEVER, the manufacturer added a VERY large delivery charge on top, but eTrailer.com delivered it for FREE! Glad I bought it on eTrailer! Saved around $150 if memory serves correctly.

Also, installation on my 2014 Cayenne S was easy-peasy. Instructions with photos were great, though I did have to acquire an 18mm socket (I had 17 & 19 but no 18!) as well as a 150lb torque wrench (mine only went to 85 ft lbs.) Otherwise, very straightforward and easy to follow instructions.

Fits well, albeit I did have a body shop do it because of the back bumper having to be dropped and reset which was easy work for them

  • Trailer Hitch and Brake Controller for 2017 Porsche Cayenne
    I'll start off by saying that no trailer hitch will allow you to control the brakes on a trailer; in order to operate the brakes on a trailer you need a brake controller and 7 way connector installed on your Porsche Cayenne. None of these components will communicate with the vehicle's internal computers in order to help the transmission, though. Since you've already chosen the Stealth Hitch # SH57FRT, you're well on your way to getting on the road, but there are a few other components...

  • Can I Use My Weight Distribution Hitch with the Stealth # SH57FRT?
    That is correct. You will not be able to use a weight distribution anti-sway system with the Stealth Hitch # SH57FRT. Although, you can still tow your 5,500 pound trailer if you wanted to use this hitch with the ball mount attachment only (without the anti-sway weight distribution). The 8,000-pounds of gross weight capacity is for the hitch ball mount. Also, it is important not to exceed the maximum tongue weight of 800 pounds on the ball mount. There may be a hitch that gives the the...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2017 Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid
    The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2017 Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver part # SH57FR for racks or part # SH57FRT for towing. This is the best option for this vehicle. It will be completely hidden while not in use and it does not require drilling. I did check with the mfg for you and confirmed fit on the S E-Hybrid.
