Specs:
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.

Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Matte black, powder coated steel is durable and corrosion resistant and creates a rugged look.Shipping was great the hitch is wounderfull, all the parts came as advertised. 7 of the 8 bolts to mount the hitch to the frame rail went in fine the last bolt took an hour to get in. There are two bolt holes on the hitch that didn’t line up with the frame rail but with some persuasion I got the last one in. Yes, I did not tighten any of the bolts down till all the bolts were screwed into the frame rail. The two bolt holes that didn’t line up correctly caused some binding on the bolts as I screwed them in tight. And yes I got to use some colorful words as all this was happening!
Overall the purchase/ delivery experience was excellent. The price is also fair considering the competition. I have a 2021 Hyundai Tuscon with double exhaust caps. I found a video on the company web that helped with the installation. They said that dropping the exhaust to install was optional. The instructions do not mention lowering the exhaust but really should. They do however recommend removing the lower underside panels that I also suggest. Removal provides additional space for securing the 4 bolts on each side. In my experience with this DIY, the hitch will not fit over the passenger exhaust unless both exhaust hangers are detached and exhaust lowered a few inches. An exhaust removal tool runs about $[XX]-$[XX] and is worth the cost over commercial installation at $[XX]-$[XX] per hour. As recommended in the video, I also suggest the use of a Q wrench which will ensure 40 psi fastening for each bolt. A wrench extension will be needed for at least 1 of the horizontal bolts on each side. The video mentions nothing about re-installation of exhaust hangars or details on panel re-installation. Turns out, it wasn't that difficult but I was hoping for the best, especially for the exhaust. The instructions and video could be more thorough for buyers who have never tackled the removal of exhausts ie add details on fishing the hitch over the exhaust, securing with bolts and re-attaching the exhaust hangars. Overall a good choice with etrailer and the quality of the hitch is outstanding.
Product came with many wear marks some right through to bare metal. When product is traveling 600 or 700 miles it might be wise to wrap it with an extra piece of cardboard very cheap fix. Would have never got the hitch in place without dropping. The muffler website was great lots information. Lots of great videos.
Great product for a great price. Arrived on time. Perfect packaging kept all the parts in place and minimized scratches. Good install directions. Easy to install. Fits the purpose. Thanks, etrailer.
Very easy to install... I like that you follow up to make sure every thing is good with the order and offer help or assistance with the the entire processes of purchasing and installing a hitch. The help videos are also great.
The product page CLEARLY declares that this item will fit a 2020 Tucson (like mine). While it's perhaps possible that this item does, it will require removing the exhaust system in order to find out. etrailer could have mentioned this. For now, because of this wrinkle, it's TBD.
Excellent fitment for my 2017 hyundai tucson. Great informational youtube video instructions for both the hitch itself and the wiring. The coating appears to be well done and welds appear to be done very well and appears to have great penetration. I bought a hyundai branded cap from ebay for reference... Very fast shipping, durable packaging and no issues at all. Hoping this holds up for a long time. Would buy again and definitely recommend.
This thing is solid!!! I bought this hitch 1 year ago and installed it in under 5 minutes, saving me over $100 off of buying it and having it installed somewhere else. I am 100% satisfied with my purchase.
Product was delivered in a timely manner and was exactly as advertised. The fit to my vehicle was perfect and installation was simple. Great product that met all my requirements.
after reading the negitive comments about receiving equipment that didn't fit or was damaged I was concerned about the hitch I ordered.
Contrary to my concerns my order was on time, undamaged, high quality, and fit perfectly.
The hitch was installed in a couple hours with no fit issues at all. I gave this prodct and E-Hitch a 5 star rating. I only wish all my projects were this successful.

Dont we all!? Glad to hear you like your hitch!
The installation was easy, no issues. I have used the hitch for carrying bikes. I have also purchased a wiring harness but haven't installed it yet!
Easy install works great competitive price 5 stars
Hitch installed without a hitch. I should have read the advice on the installation sheet regarding cleaning the threads. I bought a tap and cleaned the threads after an attempt to install the bolts. Dropping the muffler a bit definitely helped.
the previous agent and I had a mis-communication and jamie resolved it in one call and sent out the replacement the same day. I installed it yesterday and everything fit up just fine and was done within 30 minutes. I am completely satisfied and this product is very well constructed!!! Thank you and you should have the received the other returned by now...
Fit the car perfectly and looks and works great a year later
Like always order arrived early and fit perfectly have had great service from etrailer
Perfect fit and made for an easy install of my new brake controller!
Had the hitch bolted up in 30min! Thanks etrailer
Delivery was quick. YouTube Video install guide was spot on. Took less than an hour to mount.
Good product, fast delivery easy install. Good easy to navigate web site. Great business.Unc
received my hitch in excellent condition , install was a little difficult due to double tail pipe on passenger side, I had to remove the rubber grommet that holds the muffler to get the hitch over the exhaust. The matte black finish was a great choice, great hitch and price. Highly recommended.
Absolutely 0 skill/experience, but it was a Super easy installation.
everything went together just like stat ed.
Fit great! Dropped the exhaust off the hangers and it slid right onto the frame
Everything came quickly and accurately as promised at a good price.
