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.

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.Hitch arrived in a box not damaged. The right side was good. The left side was bent slightly. Of course I learned this after starting on the right side. Took it back down and put it in a vice to straighten the left side. Once that was complete all went well. Lowering the exhaust and having the thread cleaner is a must. Makes it so much easier.
I think I got my wires crossed on my review. I left an excellent rating on what I thought was the receiver hitch for my 2011 Nissan Murano, but I think the rating I left was for the wiring kit for the lights hookup. Really doesn’t make any difference because the wiring kit was excellent as well. I have etrailer hitches on two other vehicles I own. That’s the reason I came back to etrailer for this hitch. Perfect build quality and it fit like a glove. Excellent people to do business with. You won’t be disappointed.
Great hitch. heavy duty and a nice powder coated. In my case the directions state to drop the rear muffler assembly but I was able to install without dropping muffler.
This is second hitch I purchased from ETrailer. They have all your towing needs.
Wonderful hitch. Never had an issue with it!
I tried to drop the exhaust but it was more difficult than it looked (even with some WD-40 to lube the rubber connectors), so I decided to try installing without doing that. I got a 12x1.25 tap and it was well worth it--far easier to clean out the 12mm bolt holes with that than with one of the bolts (I tried both). Without dropping the exhaust it was a little challenging to get the tap lined up and turned all the way in--it's a pretty tight space. Then it is a two-person job to get the receiver bar in place--one person to hold one end while you hold the other and get one bolt in finger tight, then go to the other side and do the same. The receiver bar was just a little narrow--had to flex it a little to get the last bolt in. I did put the car up on jack stands to have more room to work. Really flexible folks might be able to do it without that. Torque the 12mm bolts to 83 ft./lb., the smaller bolt to 23 ft./lb., and you're done. Way cheaper than paying to have someone else do it.
My only suggestion is, do you research on videos on proper installation?
Nice looking and very easy install!
One year later, hitch is working great on my 2013 nissan murano.
Great customer service

hi i just got hitch great value looks good i haven,t put it on yet i will let you no thanx paul very fast shipping
works good but is very rusted
Good looking heavy duty hitch, VERY easy to install! On my 2012 Nissan Murano, I did NOT have to lower the exhaust. I gently pushed in the bottom skirt below the bumper and gained enough room to raise the right side into place after I'd placed the left side (drivers side) where it needed to be and got one bolt started. Seemed to work great. Wiring harness worked exactly as described, but you do have to disassemble a lot of the rear of the car, so be ready for that. Very happy with my purchase, 3rd time I've bought from eTrailer and will continue to do so. Keep it up, guys!
The Curt trailer hitch fits and looks great on my 2009 Nissan Murano. The unexpected problem with the install is 3 of the 4 needed bolt holes in the frame of the vehicle were corroded from road exposure, preventing threading of the bolts. To correct this, I purchased a 12mm -1.25 metric tap and T-handle tap wrench (from Menards for around $15 total). I did have to lower the exhaust assembly (per the instructions) to gain access to use the tap. With use of a spray lubricant, the tap cleaned out the threads without much difficulty. Just get it straight when you start and it works well. Took a total of about 90 minutes in all with the failed attempts to insert the bolts on the first try, then tapping of the 3 bolt holes.
