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.

I like that the company sent me an email a year later to make sure that I was happy
Great hitch, very happy, Thanks!!!
Works great, easy installation!
Got my product a day early!! Very easy ordering process! Thanks guys!
Yes I did receive the package on the date promised. Your on-line store and ordering system was easy to use - check out was smooth and I received confirmation emails as expected. I installed the hitch today on my Xterra and it was really easy as all the videos indicated. In my opinion, removing the spare tire will make all the difference. The video suggested to move the exhaust pipe out of the way. For my installation, this was not necessary, it took an extra minute to maneuver the hitch around the pipe. I did however encounter an alignment issue - the edge of the bumper prevented the hitch from lining up with the mount holes by ~1/8 inch. I used a pair of pliers to persuade (bend) the edge of the bumper just a hair - this took another minute or so. The wiring harness was a snap, remove the stock cover and connect the harness - easy. Attached is a picture of the completed installation.
The hitch was easy to install and easy to manage while installing it by myself. I watched the installation video and it was very cut and dry instructions. I had the my new hitch installed in no time. I will be buying the pigtail connector soon. So I can start using my hitch. It's a very solid construction and the hardware is very thick and sturdy. This thing is staying in place for sure. My best purchase yet for this vehicle. I still need thing and I will be a return customer.
Order this hitch for my 2000 Nissan Xterra after looking at the videos for installation of it and the wiring. The hardest part was getting the plug out of the wiring harness port on the truck (it had been there for 16 years). After that the plug snapped right into place. The hitch fit exactly like it was supposed to and was easily bolted into place. I need to get a deep 3/4" socket to finish the torquing but it's in is very solid. It'll tow our drift boat without any issues. The dealer wanted $400 to do what took me about 45 minutes all told from the time I backed into the garage until I was done. Shipping was prompt (and FREE) and the hitch was exactly as advertised. Thanks.
On my 17 Year Old Nissan Xterra: At first I noticed an interference with the trucks exhaust tailpipe, but then realized the muffler was welded to the exhaust (NOTE: Factory OEM Mufflers were clamped). BUT NO WORRIES, there was still enough Adjustment Designed into the Curt Tow Bar!!
Everything got to me fast, the installation was easy and quick worth the assistance of the online video.
The only issue that I I’m encountered was the exhaust pipe not clearing the hitch once installed and I imagine I am going to have to figure some other way to reattach it. You can see in the photo that its pressed up against the hitch and would reach its original attachment point.*** I suppose it is possible that this could be an aftearket exhaust since its a 2004 and Im not the original owner, but I dont know.
order was great and delivered as promised on time will continue to order from your company
The fit on this was perfect, and the installation was a breeze thanks to the instructional video on etrailer. The price was great, shipping was free and fast.
The hitch fit perfect the first time and came will all hardware necessary to install. I haven't pulled anything with it yet but it looks beefy enough to to the job.
I also installed 118244 and 989900. Piece of cake.
Shipping was quick and easy. I live in a remote, tiny, rural town.
Installation went exactly as advertised. I noticed I needed a torque wrench and bought one ahead of time. They should have made more of a point of tools needed.
Hitch is totally solid!
Excellent product!!!
Box had a hole in it when it arrived. I found several places the paint was scraped off. the box seemed a little too big for the hitch to be shipped in. and no padding or anything in the box to prevent the part from being scratched up in shipping. not impressed so far. guess I have to sand it down and repaint it before I can even put it on my suv...
Great Video guides on how to install everything. Made installation a breeze. Super fast shipping was shipped day I ordered it! Got everything and well boxed everything in good condition. Great company to work with I usually dont leave feedback but these guys did everything right!. Thanks etrailer!
Fit like a glove. The install was a peace of cake. Shipping was speedy and free you can't beat that!
This is a quality heavy duty product. We had it installed at our local muffler shop because our vehicle did not have the original muffler and the hitch wouldn't fit. It was an easy and low cost fix. We mostly use the hitch for a bike rack. Drove from Missouri to the Florida Keys and no problems.
The install was very simple & easy. basically lined up the hitch and tightened the plate and bolts and we were set! I use it to haul my dirt bike around abs it hasn’t done me wrong yet!
Totally recommend this hitch for your xterra, mine is an 02’ and it fits perfect.
I have a 2003 Xterra and needed a hitch/receiver. This fit my budget perfectly, as well as my SUV. You can do it by yourself in about 20 minutes. You do need to drop down the spare tire to be able to install the hitch receiver because the tire will get in the way. You can lift the tire back up and secure it properly after the hitch is installed.
The hitch was easy to install, and has served me well moving a variety of trailers from open utility models to light masts and small boats. Having a second set of hands was really helpful on the install, and greasing down the whole hitch with Fluid Film after install kept rust at bay over the salty, New England winter.
