Ground Clearance of Draw-Tite # 76021 Class III Trailer Hitch When Installed on 2015 Jeep Renegade
Question:
Whats the ground clearance after the hitch is installed?
asked by: Adam
Expert Reply:
I can't provide an exact figure as we haven't yet had the opportunity to install the hitch. However, when installed the top of the receiver tube is directly under the bumper fascia. If you measure downward from the bumper fascia about 2-3/4 inches, you'll be right where the bottom of the receiver tube will be.
In other words, measure down from the underside of the bumper fascia at the rear of the vehicle until you hit the ground. Subtract 2-3/4 inches from this figure, and you'll have a rough idea of how much ground clearance will be available under the hitch.
If you'll be using the Renegade for towing, you'll need the following to complete your towing system:
