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.

Love how easy this was to install. Instructions were clear and product holds up nicely. Thank you etrailer team!

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

2006 Jeep Wrangler
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.

2004 Jeep Rubicon
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.
by: James05/02/2020
I’m very pleased with this purchase. Easy to install and the wiring was spot on. Great service.

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.

This is my fifth trailer hitch from etrailer, great selection of products and accessories.
Fantastic detailed instructions, easy to install. Very pleased with everything you
have to offer. Would not consider a purchase from any other company.

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.

Can't say enough good about etrailer. Massive inventory. Great prices. Super fast shipping. Everything well packaged and exactly as described. Thanks!!

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.

It was a quick installation no drilling. Complete the install in less than a hour by myself

2000 Jeep TJ
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.

- What is the Width of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13430 is There a Universal Available?I went out to the warehouse and got the measurements for you on the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" part # 13430 which has been made for the 1997-2006 Wranglers. To the inside of the upright brackets it measures 42 3/4" To the outside if them it measures 43 3/8". If that hitch doesn't have the measurements you're looking for on your 1951 Chevrolet Advanced Design I recommend using the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 66" Wide part...
view full answer... - Towing a Boat with 1997 Jeep Wrangler TJAfter doing a little bit of research I was able to determine the maximum tongue weight of your 1997 Jeep Wrangler TJ is 300lbs and your maximum towing capacity is 2000lbs. So given the parameters that you're describing, you should be able to tow a small boat in your TJ. In case you don't already have a hitch you may want to look at the Curt Class III Receiver # 13430 , which is sized to fit your Jeep. To go along with the hitch you need the trailer wiring # 118356 and a ball mount. The...
view full answer... - What is the Difference Between the Curt Hitches # 13430 and # 13408 for a 2006 Jeep TJ WranglerThe 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...

- Which Curt Trailer Hitches Fit a 2005 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited RubiconCurt trailer hitch # 13430 will fit on the 2005 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. I spoke with my contact at Curt and he stated that there is no exclusion for hitch # 13408 either so it, too, will fit the Unlimited models. I have included links to the installation details and a video showing a typical installation of hitch # 13430 for you. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin and clip, and a storage...
view full answer... - Replacement Hardware Recommendation for Curt part # 13430We do, indeed. To order replacement hardware for the Curt hitch part # 13430, all you need to do is enter the part number for the hitch on the product page for part # RHK and then add to cart and we will send you out new install hardware for the hitch you have.
view full answer... - Will an E-Bike Work with the Hollywood Racks SR2 Spare Tire Bike CarrierI do have an option for you but the heaviest bike you can use on a spare tire bike rack like the Hollywood Racks SR2 2-Bike Carrier part # HRSR2 is 35 lbs. The reason for this has to do with both the strength of the connection point itself as well as the strength of the arms on a hanging style bike rack. Therefore, in order to carry an electric bike on your 1999 Jeep TJ you will need to use a platform style hitch mounted bike rack as well as a trailer hitch if you do not already have...
view full answer... - Will T-One Wiring Harness # 118409 Fit a 2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited RubiconYou are correct, the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4 Pole Trailer Connector - Jeep Wrangler, item # 118409, is the correct trailer wiring harness for your 2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. This harness will plug inline with your existing wiring harness on both sides of the vehicle. We have a video of this harness being installed on a 2006 Jeep Wrangler for you to review and I have also provided a link to installation instructions for you to review.

view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 1998 Jeep Wrangler with Round Tube Rear BumperThe correct Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 1998 Jeep Wrangler with round tube rear bumper is part # 13430. I confirmed this with Curt for you. This trailer hitch is a direct bolt-on fit and is has a round tube design which will match perfectly with the round tube rear bumper. I have attached an install video on a model with the round tube rear bumper as well.
view full answer... - Can the Fuel Tank Be Removed from 2001 Jeep TJ With Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver 13408 InstalledFrom what I have found, there are four bolts holding the fuel tank in place at the back of your 2001 Jeep TJ. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13408 covers these bolts once it is installed, so it would have to be uninstalled in order to access them and remove your fuel tank. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13430 instead. This hitch sits slightly further back, leaving those bolts accessible. There should be plenty of clearance to remove the fuel tank, although it may make...

- Can Hopkins Tow Bar Wiring and Curt Trailer Wiring Install at Same Time on 2006 Jeep WranglerYou can have both the Hopkins tow bar lighting kit part # HM56202 and the Curt kit part # C55363 at the same time on your 2006 Jeep Wrangler. The two kits would basically just plug into each other and as long as everything is seated properly it will work great. You'll also need a trailer hitch with # 13430 and for flat towing a base plate kit part # RM-521424-5 with a tow bar like part # RM-520.
view full answer... - Do you Have An Electric Bike Rack That Can Hold Bikes with Fenders?Sometimes, the wheel attachment ratcheting straps can damage bikes that have front and/or rear fenders. For this reason, I recommend getting a bike rack that attaches to the bike's frame instead. The Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # TH903202 is great because it will attach at the frame while giving you a 65 pound per bike carrying capacity for electric bikes. It is important to note that if there is any spare tire on your wrangler, the measurement from the center of hitch...
view full answer... - Class III Hitch Options and Wiring For 2005 Jeep TJ UnlimitedThere are 2 Class III hitch options that are a fit for the 2005 Jeep Wrangler TJ Unlimited, Curt round tube Class III hitch part # 13430 or the Draw-Tite Round Tube Class III hitch part # 75193. They both fit exactly the same and have the same capacities. I recommend Curt Class III Round Tube Receiver Hitch part # 13430 which is one of the options with the high weight capacity and is assembled in the USA. I have attached a video for your reference. If you need wiring and the TJ has...
view full answer... - Will Curt Class III Trailer Hitch # 13430 Fit 2006 Jeep TJ RubiconYes, the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13430 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2006 Jeep TJ Rubicon. This custom hitch will use existing holes in the Jeep's frame for a no-drill installation and it will provide you with a 2 inch receiver opening. The hitch features a 4,000 pound towing weight capacity and a 400 pound tongue weight limit. I have attached an installation video that you can use for reference along with the written instructions.

view full answer... - Curt Hitch Recommendation for the 2002 Jeep WranglerBoth the Curt hitch part # 13408 and the part # 13430 would work well on your 2002 Jeep Wrangler. Both have the same capacities and have 2 inch openings. The differences are that the # 13408 uses a different attachment method like you noticed and has a square cross tube whereas the # 13430 uses a round tube. Both are equally strong, some just prefer the look of one over the other. I attached pics of both of these hitches installed to let you decide which you like better. I attached install...
