2015 Toyota Sienna Se Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Ground Clearance
Question:
Hi ! We purchased a 2015 Toyota Sienna Se....We have been using a van for the last 10 years to pull a trailer and haul our camping equipment it was a Honda I was concerned about the lower profile of the Sienna Se and wondered which hitch would best serve our purpose because of the lower profile....and provide the best clearance...we dont leave paved roads...thanks ! 5X8 trailer with about 1000 lb load..

Expert Reply:
The rear of your 2015 Toyota Sienna does sit pretty low. For a trailer hitch for your vehicle the best option is going to be the smaller 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch size like the part # 36513 as it will offer slightly better ground clearance than a 2 inch hitch.
For a ball mount you would need the part # 36051, 2 inch hitch ball # 19258 or 1-7/8 inch ball # 19256.
For trailer wiring you would then want the # 118498.
