Is Bumper Modification Required to Install Draw-Tite 75713 on 2013 Dodge Durango R/T
Question:
Ive got a 2013 Durango R/T, that did not come with the trailer hitch, thus, does not have the cut out on the rear bumper. Do your trailer hitches require modifications to the bumper or do will they fit the vehicle as is, with no modifications required? Thanks

The hitch will install under your bumper as shown in the linked video. You will not need to cut the bumper. Existing fasteners on the vehicle will be used for hitch installation.
The 2-inch Class III hitches we have for your 2013 Dodge Durango R/T are shown on the linked page. I recommend the Draw-Tite # 75713 for its no-drilling installation and since it allows you to keep a full size spare stowed underneath the truck.
For a wiring harness you can use # 118552 and refer to the linked article for help with the install. And for a ball mount/hitch ball you can use part # 989900 which is a complete kit with 2 ball mounts, 2 hitch balls and a pin and clip.
