Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2008 Dodge Dakota
Question:
im looking for a new hitchclass 111 for my 2008 dodge dakota you show two, a curt and a draw tite at a considerable difference in price what is the difference? i tow a 4000 lb travel traileron the road weight thousands of miles a year so i need a top quality hitch. i do have a top quality wd system but i bent the old factory installed hitch last year

Expert Reply:
We have 3 hitches that will fit your 2008 Dodge Dakota. All three hitches will require you to remove your factory trailer hitch. I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75251 which has the very similar design and the same capacity ratings of the Curt hitch at a better price point. The only real difference is the manufacturer in this case.
