For your 2020 Volkswagen Atlas there is going to be a fitment difference between the Cross Sport models and the Non-Cross Sport models. If yours is a Cross Sport model then I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT96MR. This custom fit trailer hitch has an easy bolt-on installation with no welding required and is rated for a maximum gross trailer weight capacity of 5,000lbs and maximum tongue weight capacity of 750lbs. (note: as with any hitch you will need to review your vehicle's GTW and TW capacity and go with the lowest rating when hauling anything).

If you have a Non-Cross Sport model then I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13366. It also has an easy bolt-on installation with no welding required. It has a maximum gross trailer weight capacity of 6,000lbs and maximum tongue weight capacity of 900lbs. It has a gloss black powder coat finish over protective base coat that offers superior rust resistance and sturdy, square-tube design.

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…
