Perfect for light-duty towing, this custom, vehicle trailer hitch receiver features fully welded, gloss powder coated steel construction. Drawbar sold separately.Second etrailer order this year that’s been loose and damaged due to ridiculously insufficient packaging. The 50lb unsecured hitch was in an oversized box with ZERO dunnage or means to prevent the hitch from flopping around in the box. The box was completely open, and every side of the box was ripped or gouged. I suspect the driver put the hitch back in the box. Quite frankly, thinking this packaging is ok sends a very clear middle finger to the customer. Time to move on from etrailer.
After reviewing the installation video, my husband and I (we are both seniors) were able to install this item fairly easily.

I’ve been using this for a year to carry my bike rack. Still solid and looking good!
The hitch was poorly package and as a result it was bent when it arrived. Also the wrong hardware was sent and it took a whole week for etrailer to get the correct hardware to me. That is unacceptable in my opinion.

Oh I am sorry about that. So, it looks like our customer service department is sending out the correct hardware in it's place. Once you receive the correct hardware, I would love to hear your updated feedback.
The hitch fit my RAV4 and works as advertised, but my son had a little more trouble with the installation than expected. Fortunately, a video helped him get the job done, and he was able to add his bike rack to the hitch. It does what he needed, and the price was reasonable.

Hitch is still great for mounting a bike rack. We are very satisfied with the product.
I was very surprised at how professionally manufactured this trailer hitch was for the price. I have never installed a trailer hitch before and it only took me about 30 minutes. I did use a floor jack to help me since I was doing it by myself you do not need to drop the muffler, if you’re worried about scratching the pipes, just put some tape on them but the trailer hitch will fit. I highly recommend etrailer because their product is very good and very reasonable.
Packaging a bit beat up when it arrived, however, no damage to the hitch and all bits and pieces were there. Approximately one hour to unpack, set up and do solo install. Definitely would have been easier to install with a second set of arms (muscle).
I put the Class II hitch on my 2024Rav4 Hybrid. I didn't drop the muffler but I see why it makes it easier. I wiggled things in place, hydraulic jack to finalized position. Bolted in real clean. Wiring is next. My last product, class III on a ford Edge had no issues over 5 years of time.
installed just like the video. no problems. Also no problems developed with foot kick feature as was warned as possible.
If I were to do over again I would get the Cat. III hitch simply based on what is available for the 2" receiver vs. the 1 1/4".
Arrived with damage to box, but hitch receiver was undamaged. Receiver (the part you see after installation) was securely wrapped with bubble wrap and tape. 30 minute install by my mechanic on my Rav4.
I read of other purchasers finding the hitch tearing large holes in the standard weight cardboard box. My package also was torn at both ends and the mounting bolts were missing, apparently having fallen out of the box through the large holes. Packaging seemed reputation destroyingly inadequate. My last purchase
Had this a year. Easy to install on my RAV4 Prime and to take the bike rack on and off the hitch. Would definitely recommend it.
The hitch was well made and fit perfectly on the RAV4. We did the installation ourselves which took about an hour. We made the installation a little harder due to not jacking up the vehicle, it was a bit cramped
The etrailer site was easy to use. I especially appreciate their informative videos. My trailer hitch fit and has been great.
The Curt trailer hitch receiver arrived on the day it was supposed to. All the parts and instructions included. It looks well made and fit the vehicle with a minimal fuss. I had the unit installed in about an hour. Your installation video clearly explained the process and was very helpful. The only issue was the box was roughed up in transit and arrived with part of the square receiver tube sticking out of the box. A small amount of the powder coat finish was knocked off. Fortunately that will be out of sight under the vehicle.
I should have believed the reviews. Would have thought you did and would have done better. The box had so many holes tears and repairs yet the product was still hanging out of box getting scratched on my concrete porch. Let’s hope it’s not bent and installs ok. You could spend a couple dollars on the spray foam in bags that would keep product in the box and from flailing around. I’m sure the delivery people get so frustrated that they don’t care either because you don’t care. It doesn’t have to be an awkward package. Do better!

I am sorry to hear that the hitch arrived this way. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you. We recommend touching up the hitch with a rust resistant pain like Rustoleum. We can send out a paint kit to you.
Really great product, easy install. 4 stars because of the packaging. They could have used foam or something to pack it in. I received a damaged box, product was fine. Had a few scratches and dings from transit but fit just right. I recommend having another person there to help. Can be heavy for one person. Clear instructions.
The product is great. very sturdy. Will use this mainly for my bike rack. Installation was the challenging one. Gave this a 4 rating due to the installation document not really clear about the muffler that needs to be pulled side to side to slowly insert the hitch. Had to call customer support and good thing a video was shared. That was all I need. Customer support was an easy 5 rating for sure!
It went right on. I did get help from my son. We did lower the exhaust but that was easy, Nothingbneeded to be cut or modified. The hardest part was removing the stickers covering the bolt holes since I had just trimmed my fingernails. Itvwould have nicer if Toyota had the same thread for all 4 bolts.the smaller diameter bolts go forward.
The packaging takes a beating during shipping but nothing was lost or damaged.
The hitch works great. I had difficulty getting the muffler out if the way myself so I took it to a shop for the installation.
Delivered quickly, seems to have installed cleanly. Works well so far as receiver for bike rack on our RAV4.

Product has continued to work as promised - no issues.
The hitch is great BUT the packaging was trashed during shipment. The packaging was sub-par and the hitch was sticking out of the cardboard in 3 places.

To be honest it is not uncommon for this to happen despite our best efforts. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to make sure the hitch was not damaged.
it fit as it was supposed to, as a retired mechanic i appreciated the fact that i didn't have to make any modifications, everything was there, i had slide in from previous car that i had to redrill ,which i could have alleviated by just ordering it also , it looks nice , hardly noticeable, if it does not rust with winter salt ill be really happy with it.
Everything fit perfect
Great quality, easy install
