Highest Ground Clearance Class III Hitch Available for 2021 Toyota RAV4
Question:
I need a Class 3 hitch for my 2021 Toyota Rav4, which hitch has the most ground clearance?
asked by: Leon
Expert Reply:
We offer three different Class III hitches for your 2021 Toyota RAV4, The Curt # C13416, etrailer brand # e23ZR will all have about 9-1/2 inches of clearance between the underside of the receiver tube and the ground. The EcoHitch # EH97FR sits about 2 inches higher on the vehicle, with about 11-1/2 inches of clearance below the underside of the receiver tube.
If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'll need a few other items to complete your towing system. For a trailer wring harness, I'd recommend # C56434.
The ball mount you'll need will depend on which hitch you go with. If you use the EcoHitch, you'd need the # 2753 which includes a hitch pin. For the other hitches, use # D-28. You'll also need a # PC3 hitch pin. For a 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, use # 19260 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball.
I've linked to install videos for the hitches and wiring harness I recommended.
