Differences Between the etrailer.com Hitch Part # E98858 and Curt Hitch part # 13534
Question:
Im ready to order and had another question - which Ive also sent via etrailer website as well. Since I was reviewing prior emails for additional info thought Id run the same question by you. Website lists e98858 and 13534 as custom fit hitches for 2008 Highlander. Please advise on the difference between the 2 products. I read the description and could not find/notice a difference.

The only difference between the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E98858 and the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13534 which are both fits for your 2008 Toyota Highlander is that the Curt hitch will require the use of the Support Strap part # 18050 for all non-towing applications whereas the etrailer.com will not. For the exception of the support strap they are identical.
I have attached as install video on the Curt trailer hitch for you as well but the install process will be the same for either.
