Fast delivery, hitch fit great. I brought this hitch from another vendor in Texas, and the shipper lost it in transit and didn't fine this out for 8 days. They didn't ship another they gave me a refund. I ordered from you guys and had my hitch in 2 days.

Product arrived promptly in great condition. Installation time was 15 minutes but I viewed the install video before I ordered the product. Hitch looks very nice, installs a snap, and I recommend it and etrailer.com highly.

I ordered this hitch on a Sunday morning and it was at my door by Tuesday afternoon. Couldn't be happier with it. Installing was a breeze. Good job etrailer! I would definitely recommend to a friend.

Installation was easy. Haven't tried it yet.

Works great.Easy installation. Good job on the paint as it's not showing any corrosion.

Installation was fast and easy. I used a car jack to keep it in place and installed it by myself. The toughest part was removing the existing bolts in the frame. The angle of the bolts on the passenger side are hard to work with if you want to use power tools, so get a ratchet-wrench if you don’t have one. It looks great on my Jeep, can’t wait to use it!

Good product at a good price. Removing the 9 year old bolts from the Jeep was by far the hardest part. Curt gives you two sets of bolts to use and you pck the right one depending on the application. But, the two are only very slightly different. They have the same thread/inch and are only very slightly different diameter. Pick the wrong one (I did initially) and you are in for frustrating time. Otherwise, it will work perfectly for me.
by: Paul S12/20/2019
The trailer hitch works fine. Now. Bottom line the hitch didn't fit. Only two bolt holes would align with the Jeep frame. Front or back, your choice but only two. I attached the front holes, then uninstalled it and drilled the rear holes of the hitch to enlarge them to allow the bolts to align. First and last time I will buy a Curt. I have never had an issue with Draw tite.
by: Sam08/14/2023
Ive had mine on my 05 Wrangler for a year now. Works flawlessly. Easy to install, stays secured, none of the bolts have walked out or loosened. Installed it and never thought about it again
by: James05/02/2020
I’m very pleased with this purchase. Easy to install and the wiring was spot on. Great service.

Cons: Handle nuts broke off before I could torque it. Had to drill a hole into the frame as I could not align it, it was literally 1 mm off.
Pros: Great customer service from Curt, they definitely stand behind their product. This hitch sticks out little more compared to other hitches. Combined with Yakima DoubleDown Ace rack it cleared the stock spare tire on my 2004 Rubicon.

I bought the hitch for my 2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.
It all works great. The Curt website with video installation instructions is really helpful. Now I can do more with my Jeep! I bought a platform for the hitch so that I now can carry my Kawasaki 250 down for repairs or have fun taking it camping.

This is my third purchase from e trailer. The products have always arrived quickly and for my model of Jeep. The parts fit well and the installation times and descriptions are usually pretty accurate. The hitch fit well with no drilling and took about 30 minutes.

Order was filled in less than 24 hrs, was shiped in two days and received in 6 days from original order date.
Received emails as to the progress from start to finish. And I received a quality product. Could not be more satified. All companies should model their customer relations after etrailer. Keep up the good work.

REALLY easy to install. I had an aftermarket exhaust that got in the way but that was a minor work-around. Got it done by myself with a jack holding the other end. Took 30 minutes.

Installation was easy but very easy to mark up while putting it in. The coating on the tube scratches easily. Other than that fits perfect on my 2000 TJ.

Ask the Experts about this CURT Trailer Hitch
Do you have a question about this Trailer Hitch?
- What is the Difference Between the Curt Hitches # 13430 and # 13408 for a 2006 Jeep TJ Wrangler
- The biggest difference between Curt Hitch # 13430 and # 13408 is that the # 13430 has a round cross tube whereas the # 13408 has a square cross tube. This difference is primarily an aesthetic difference since both of these hitches have the same towing capacities. Another difference between the two hitches is how it attaches to the frame of your 2006 Jeep TJ. I attached a picture that shows the different mounting methods each hitch has.
I also attached a picture of both of these hitches...

The build quality of this hitch receiver is excellent -- wonderful fit and finish. It fit perfectly on my 2006 Jeep Wrangler, and the finishes all look very high quality. I put a 1up bike rack on the hitch receiver and have driven 3 bikes about 150 miles and had very little wiggling and jiggling. I am incredibly happy with the hitch and am an etrailer customer for life.

2001 Jeep Wrangler
Product arrived within two days and was in good condition. Installation was OK. Hardest part was getting the Class I hitch off the dealer had put on in 2001. I needed this one for a rear shelf attachment. I couple of tips below, however they may only apply to my situation: 2001 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 4.0.
1. To get the old hitch off which was a side and bottom mount, I had to remove the plastic bumper end caps.
2. As indicated in the diagram the silver carriage bolt plates should be inserted with the hole end towards the rear.
3. To use a torque wrench on the passenger side front nut, I had to remove the two screws holding the exhaust pipe hanger and let it sag temporarily.
by: Pop04/12/2019
This hitch receiver is very well built of high quality materials. Perfect fit, all parts were included and it came with accurate, easy to understand instructions. I added the reflective strips after the fact. They were not included with the hitch. I couldn't be happier.
by: Matt03/13/2021
Easy install and quick shipping
Only problem is the tailpipe rattles against it
Pro tip: mount the trailer plug in the hollow, stock bumper easy to do as well

Very pleased with the ease of install. I recently removed the hitch to address some surface rust on my frame and re-install was just as easy. Only issue I have is that my exhaust tailpipe rattles against the hitch so I will need make some adjustments to my exhaust

I can't believe it's been a year already! I meant to leave a review in early 2019 about how easy the install was on my 2004 Wrangler Sport TJ, how clear the instructions were, how quickly the order shipped, and how competitive the pricing was ... but a year goes by quickly with a Jeep!
In the last year I've pulled trailers loaded with mulch and more, multiple boats, and even one of those hitch racks for the cooler. This hitch has never missed a beat.
Probably the best testimonial I can give is the stump extraction: I removed about a dozen ornamental bush stumps with a 2" tow strap loop and a chain -- piece of cake!
If you're on the fence, don't think twice. This hitch will bring a whole new sense of utility to your Jeep for years to come.

Install on a 97 Jeep wrangler a year ago in Iowa winters and no rust. Use it more of a anchor when I get stuck. Tough as nail no bends or wear.

I priced out a complete receiver hitch installation kit from a local dealer and was quoted $310.00 Purchased the receiver hitch for my 2004 Jeep Wrangler from etrailer for much less than that and my son and I did the install in less than 30 minutes.
I shop on line for just about all purchases (107 in the last six months) This company is at the top of my list on all aspects of on line orders.

I needed a trailer hitch for a small utility trailer and a bike rack. I was hesitant about ordering a hitch as the dealer had replaced the factory bumpers with tubular ones. I had read that this is sometimes an issue with clearance for the hitch. However, in a response to an earlier question on the site, etrailer had responded how much clearance was needed and where to measure from on the frame. I measured and had 1/4 inch to spare so I went ahead and ordered. It fit using the factory holes, and the reverse fishing technique as described in the directions worked perfectly and it was installed within a matter of minutes. Very pleased with the hitch and highly recommend it!

This is a two part review. The first is etrailer and their service. This was my first experience with them and I am IMPRESSED. I placed the order Tuesday night at 8:30 and it was delivered at 12:30 Thursday afternoon. Their communication is excellent. Their website is fantastic for tracking the shipment. I found myself checking it more often than I should have just to watch the progress on the map.
Part two: the receiver. Everything was right, nothing was damaged, everything fit, everything worked the first time. The packaging was good. The Curt receiver is solid with good welds and good paint. The holes lined up. The instructions were good enough. Oh yeah my only complaint is the carriage bolt heads were a little to big to fit through the hole in the frame. I had to cut maybe 1/8" off one side. Other than that you need to have a little patience in fishing the wire down through the frame. The first one took me at least 20-30 minutes and some serious words. The second one went though the first try and took 2 minutes.
This receiver is bigger than is needed for my Jeep but it keeps the hitch the same size as our truck and as long as I don't try to pull 4000LBS with it, oversize won't hurt. It was only $20 more for the 2".
All in all I'm very happy with the purchase and with etrailer.

Great quality and easy to install as per instructions. Thanks for a good product and helpful videos. The wiring harness was even easier to install (except for accumulation of dirt in my face from the covers.) use of safety goggles might be a good tip. My bumper is hollow on the back. Actually a piece of U channel, so after glueing a magnet to the plug I can hide all wiring out of sight behind it.

Product came in a timely manner. Bolted right up to the frame. No hassle and straight forward installation instructions. Looks good and holds my Thule t2 pro xt rack very snuggly.
Will recommend.

Installed on a 2004 jeep wrangler. Installation was really easy and fast. Etrailer videos made installation a breeze. Installed by myself, only hard part was lifting hitch in place and catching the bolt, but I was able to lift one side into place and balance the other side on my knee. After that just install the rest of the bolts and make sure you have a 1/2 torque wrench that can tighten to 110 ft lbs. I highly recommend this hitch!

Perfect fit. Quality product from Curt. How-to installation video by etrailer.com team clear, concise, and spot on. About 30 minutes to install.
All products ordered were in stock and shipped same day. Really like the comprehensive tracking page that shows progress on map, lists how-to videos, and other information about your products (all in one place).

Needed a hitch for my 05 Unlimited Rubicon that didn't bolt from the side of the frame. This was perfect! 4 bolts, super simple install, and it looks great! I would recommend this hitch to anyone with a 1997-2006 Jeep TJ or Unlimited.

Great product, fantastic accompanying hardware... particularly with regard to the wire to fit the bolt up into the frame with. Most companies wouldn't care enough to send anything like that with the order. There was a problem with the transaction, someone from the company called me immediately and I re-placed the order using PayPal with no issues. Shipping was quick and the product itself is very good quality. Keep up the good work. Thank you.

Hitch was delivered faster than I expected. Ordered on Yuesday and delivered on Friday. I took the time to make sure the bolts were already freed up from the rust on my Wrangler so when I installed the hitch it actually only took 10 minutes.
Was towing the jet ski 30 minutes later.

The trailer hitch receiver arrived quickly and installed easily. Appears to be well built and looks good. No complaints.
by: henry f09/22/2017
received the hitch quickly after ordering - install was as easy as stated and took the removal of 2 bumper bolts and installation of 2 others then replacing them - tighten all 4 down and ready to go - fit was tight but it should be - highly recommended

Great sturdy product, excellent finish, I have an 02 wrangler and the access hole they tell u to use is too small for the bolt head, just use the hole the hitch lines up with, once I figured that out it only took 5 mins !
