Why Doesn't Draw Tite Hitch # 75761 Fit BMW X1 Models without Sunroof

Question

Question:

Will this hitch fit my 2014 BMW X1? It does not have a panoramic sunroof. The description specifically mentions the sunroof, why does this matter? Do you provide a hitch that will work on a 2014 BMW X1 with NO sunroof?

I agree that is an unusual fit exclusion for your 2014 BMW X1, but the roof of a vehicle is a large part of the structure of it. Different roof types will require different frame setups. So what that means is that the versions of your 2014 BMW X1 that have the panoramic sunroof vs. the ones that do not will have different frame designs.

That is why the Draw Tite hitch part # 75761 that you referenced does not fit the versions of the vehicle that do not have the sunroof.

The 7290 that you see is a casting number. It is found on AL-KO hubs that fit #99 spindles. I found that the bearings used are #28580 which would be the inner bearing and #25580 which would be the outer bearing. For the seal use #91030.
