Rugged, Matte Black Finish
The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Looks great! It's so new I haven't put it to a test yet. It will be used primarily for transporting electric bikes. One bike is a fat-tire bike. Viewing your reviews of best bike carriers. The trailer hitch receiver was installed professionally.

2006 ToyotaSienna
This Hitch receiver was easy to install on our 2006 Toyota Sienna, the one bolt located under the muffler needs a little extra time during the install, but it's straightforward. We have 5 place bike rack that installs on the rack and it's been rock-stable, even over 500 mile trips. My only complaint is with the ground clearance (it's a Toyota issue) with the receiver installed you lose a lot on the departure angle, so be prepared to scrape a few times and watch for speed bumps, pulling out of driveways, etc. e-trailer's product though is top notch, well-built and has been great over our year of ownership.
by: Greg 02/14/2024
It was easy to install and has held up well with no problems. My trailer loaded is around 600 lbs and I’ve pulled it several 1000 miles with the hitch. I would definitely buy another one if needed.
by: Steve06/01/2023
Awesome hitch at a good price! Easy installation, great instructions and hardware. Fits tight, looks OEM! Thanks for great product!

It works fine, no problems with the boat trailer.

The trailer box arrived damaged but the trailer hitch receiver looked fine. When installing the hitch, it would not fit with several attempts. I contacted etrailer for support and received an email instruction to realign the hitch. After realignment of hitch, it fit just fine and the hitch looked awesome. Thanks etrailer for the quick response on the solution. The hitch was mis-aligned due to shipping. The hitch is very strong with an awesome price from etrailer. I have purchased another hitch from etrailer and it was also great quality. Thanks again (Quinn F. at etrailer) for providing quick support to solve my problem. Great value with free shipping.

I am fairly mechanical and can savvy instructions well enough, so I read over them a few times prior to installing. I installed this by myself, with no other hands helping me - if this is you, READ ON!
I jacked up the back of the van and used two jack stands so that I could actually breathe. That made all the difference (don’t forget your parking brake!).
There is a piece of the body that is plastic - you will have to remove this and cut a hole so that the hitch mount will actuallly fit. I took the time to do this and it made the install so much easier. I had a set of tin snips and they worked great for this. Although, pay attention to the different fittings that hold this piece of plastic in place. There are three different kinds: Phillips screw, LARGE Phillips screws, and little pop out fittings. So you take this thing off and put it back on before you ever get to any of the actual installation.
There are covers for the welded frame nuts on the Sienna. They are basically stickers. I jabbed a hole in them with a screw driver and pulled them apart to expose the nut. Since they are covered, mine were clean as a whistle and I didn’t have to blow them out or use a wire brush.
Instructions for this item are great, measurements for the piece you HAVE to cut are totally correct, except I would make them bigger so you can fit your ratchet extension in.
I DID NOT lower the exhaust. I actually used it as a prop on the passenger side as I finger tightened a bolt on the driver side (remember I did this by myself). Then I finger tightened a couple of bolts on the exhaust (passenger) side. After finger tightening all of the bolts, I took my time tightening each bolt twice. I don’t have a torque wrench, so I don’t know how tight they are. I tend to have a tight grip, so I am sure they are fine, but I’ll check them again in a week or so. NOTE, tightening the bolts on the exhaust side requires you to pull the exhaust to the side so you can get your ratchet in position. I used the ratchet extension as leverage and this helped. If you could lower the exhaust, it might be easier, but that seemed like a needless pain.
We are taking our first trip with it this weekend - carrying three mountain bikes. I’ll check the bolts when we get there and when we get back.
All in all, this hitch mount is a beast. Very heavy duty, and will handle anything our Vinnie-Man will dish out :)

Thanks for the review! I highly recommend making sure those bolts are correctly torqued. Most national chain auto parts stores will loan tools for free if you leave a deposit, thatd be a great way to borrow a torque wrench.
by: Erin07/15/2022
My husband and I were able to install it with little difficulty. Because of the weight of the hitch it took a few different tries to screw it into place. I would suggest using tire jacks to hold it in place while you get it bolted. We’ve had it for over a year and it’s been perfect.

Perfectly!
by: Reece06/18/2020
First-class build quality. The welds are solid and the cuts are crisp.
The only reason for 4/5 stars is that the instructions need significant work. The photos are small and dark, the text is terse, and the difficulty is significantly under-rated.
I am a skilled handyman with all required tools. This project took me about two and a half hours, and a significant part of that time was spent scrutinizing the sparse instructions.
The price was also reasonable. I'm a repeat customer, and I would definitely buy again.
Four images attached. Use as you like.

Hitch Receiver works as it should and it's not too difficult to install.
by: Alex11/10/2021
Product is reasonably well made. Accessories are poorly made and packaged. The paper box came in almost completely dismantled and both mounting screws and pin alignment stop were missing, and the receiver was lightly scratched. However the customer service did immediately shipped out the replacement mounting accessories and alignment stop within days, and credited me $xx, for touchup paint from local [hardware store]. The touchup paint was a nice touchup. Thanks!

I purchased 2 trailer hitches (one for a 2014 Toyota Sienna and one for a Hyundai Tuscan) for our Thule Bicycle Rack and both hitches are working great! Thanks!

Easy to install. Works great.
by: Lois10/03/2022
The installation video was wrong you also have to cut the plastic for the center of the hitch on my 2020 sienna limited edition. Very frustrating hope this helps the next person that install one.
by: Jerardo05/30/2019
Very easy install. Took 2 of us about 45 minutes from start to finish. Flanges on hitch where bent a little bit from shipping but we were able to straighten them out.
Hitch scrapes sometimes when i leave my driveway or on certain Speed Bumps but overall a great well built Hitch.

This hitch, as with prior etrailer hitches was easy to install with the how-to videos. I keep coming back to etrailer.

Love the product, very well made. Very beefy and sturdy, it’s heavy and solid. It was very easy to install on my dorkmobile and the hardware provided is all that you need. I would recommend this thing to everyone that has a 05 Toyota Sienna and wants a hitch on it!

This thing works great and continues to work for me. Although I just traded that vehicle for another Toyota Sienna and I will soon be purchasing another one of these.
by: Brian05/14/2021
Installed fairly easily. Looks good. I did have to trim the under carriage cover around the 2” opening but otherwise it was no big deal. I installed this on a 2017 Sienna Limited.
by: Adam 08/07/2023
I am very impressed! The company, product, pricing and my self "DIY", installation was all very good and I would do it again if I ever had the need, Thanks E-Trailer!

You'll get slightly better ground clearance from a hitch with an 1-1/4" receiver and when the installed the Curt # C12065 and Draw-Tite # 36513 Class II hitches on the same model year Sienna the difference in height was 1/8" and that small of a difference could honestly be contributed to ground the measurement was taken on or even the amount of pressure in the tires at time.

The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2017 Highlander is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98844. The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2007 Sienna is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98837.

This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your van 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. These capacities can be increased to 5,000 lbs and 500 lbs when used with a weight distribution system. The reason the etrailer item # e98837 is the best hitch is because of the way it mounts.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Toyota SiennaYes, the etrailer.com hitch part # e98837 will fit and work well on your 2019 Toyota Sienna. This has a 2 inch opening and great towing capacities as well. For trailer wiring you'd want the part # 118648 as long as you don't have an SE model or part # 118498 if you do have SE model. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop....

- Recommended Bike Rack to Carry 3 Fat Tire E-Bikes on 2008 Toyota SiennaI have a solution for you, but in all likelihood you will need to remove the batteries of the bikes in order to get them to a manageable capacity for a rack that holds 3 bikes. You will also need a 2" hitch on your 2008 Toyota Sienna, since a 1-1/4" hitch will not be capable of carrying bikes of this size. If you don't already have a hitch on your Sienna, the etrailer # e98837 is a great choice and will allow you to carry a bike rack capable of handling these bikes. With that said, the...

- Recommended 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2009 Toyota Sienna For Best Ground ClearanceFor your 2009 Toyota Sienna, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13105 you referenced. From the lowest point of the hitch receiver you will have about 8-1/2 inches of ground clearance. The inside top of the receiver itself will be at 11-1/2 inches. This is identical to the etrailer option # e98837 and about 1 inch higher than the Draw-Tite # 75237 option. The SE and CE are trim models and don't impact the fit of the hitch receiver.

The etrailer brand # e98837 and the Draw-Tite # 75237 will have the entire hitch visible under the rear bumper. In contrast, the Draw-Tite # 76112 and the etrailer brand # e98853 will have the crossbar nicely tucked behind the rear bumper, with only the receiver opening and safety chain loops being visible. The concealed type hitch also allows about 2 more inches of ground clearance, which...

- How To Prevent Hitch Scraping on Pavement with 2019 Toyota SiennaThe 2019 Toyota Sienna is a low ground clearance vehicle so there isn't much that can be done about a hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98837 scraping or bottoming out. That said, you can protect the hitch with an option like the Roadmaster Rollaway Trailer Hitch Protector part # RM-050 and that's what I recommend. I don't recommend lifting the vehicle to give more ground clearance as this will affect the ride quality and suspension geometry which can lead to other...

If the vehicle is equipped with a rear hitch like # e98837 you could use a hitch mounted tire carrier like part # C31006. You'll want to make sure that the combined weight of the spare tire and the 15 lb weight of the carrier doesn't exceed the tongue weight capacity of your hitch.

This particular hitch has a 5,000 lb trailer and 500 lb tongue weight capacity when used with a WD system. Then for a weight distribution system the Reese part # RE34FR would be a great option that has a tongue weight range of 200 to 600 lbs like what your trailer would need.

The Curt Ball Mount # C45070 will...

This is especially important when considering hitch mounted accessories like bike racks, cargo carriers or ball mounts. Measuring from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver tube opening, # e98837 will offer approximately 11-1/2". On the other hand, the Curt # C13105 offers 10-1/4" and the Draw-Tite # 75237 only offers about 9-1/2".

As an example our etrailer Receiver # e98837 can be used with weight distribution while the etrailer Receiver # e98853 can not. This is due to the construction of the hitch.
