  • Comparison Of Trailer Hitches For 2008 Volvo XC70
  • The Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch and Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, part # 75916 are made by the same parent company so they are really constructed the same. They are Class lll hitches and have 2 inch receiver openings, and will work well with your XC70. The Hidden Hitch is no longer available.

  • Comparing Curt And Hopkins Wiring Harnesses For 2011 Volvo XC70
  • Trailer wiring harnesses for your 2011 Volvo XC70 use powered converters to draw the power for the trailer's wiring. This prevents the taillights of your Volvo from having to power the trailer wiring. The Hopkins kit part # HM11143735 that fits your vehicle runs a line to the positive post of the vehicle whereas the Curt part # C56386 instead runs to the interior light. This is HIGHLY unusual but it is what Curt recommends. So you either would need to run a wire to the battery or to the...

  • Curt or Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch For 2005 Volvo XC70
  • For all intents and purposes, both trailer hitch receivers that fit your 2005 Volvo XC70 are the same; they have the same bolt-on installation, capacities, and aesthetic on your Volvo. So the best option really is the least expensive between the two: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12318 - Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 36297

  • Comparing Receiver Location Between Curt And Draw-Tite On 2006 Volvo XC70
  • Since the Curt # C12318 and Draw-Tite # 36297 trailer hitches attach to the same place on your 2006 Volvo XC70, the receivers will be very similar. They will measures approximately 4 inches form the center of the hitch pin hole to the back edge of the bumper. I recommend the Draw-Tite # 36297 hitch because it does not require a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 as the Curt hitch does. Both are Class ll hitches and have 1-1/4 inch receiver openings. If you want to let me know what...

  • Trailer Hitch Comparison and Ground Clearance for a 2016 Volvo XC70
  • Draw-Tite hitch # 75916 and Hidden Hitch 87674 are identical in every way other than the stickers on them. But Hidden Hitch is actually going away as a brand. Curt hitch # 13266 has a similar design and all 3 hitches will be basically right below the rear fascia. The ground clearance for all of them will be essentially the same with only minute differences if any. When we installed the Draw-Tite hitch on a 2016 Volvo XC70 it measured 14-1/4 inches from the ground to the top o the receiver...

  • Recommended Class III Hitch and 4-Way Wiring Harness for 2015 Volvo XC70
  • For your 2015 Volvo XC70 I would recommend the Curt # 13266 over the Draw-Tite # 75916. These trailer hitches have an almost identical design. Although the Draw-Tite has a higher towing capacity, it looks like both of the hitches exceed the towing capacity of your vehicle so you will be limited by your vehicle. I would double check the owner's manual to make sure. Both have a concealed cross tube, so you will only see the receiver tube at the back of the vehicle giving it a factory look....
