Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness Fit Recommended for 2021 Toyota RAV4 Adventure
Question:
I need to tow a small flatbed trailer with my 2021 Toyota RAV4. What hitch and wiring will I need? Thank you.
asked by: Felix
Expert Reply:
Due to it's very competitive price, and the fact that the hitch is manufactured in the US, I'd recommend the etrailer brand Class III hitch, part # e23ZR which is a fit for all models of the 2021 RAV4, including your Adventure model.
For a trailer wiring harness, I'd recommend the Curt # C56434. For a ball mount, use # D-28 along with the # PC3 hitch pin. For a trailer ball, use # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball.
I've linked to installation videos for the hitch and trailer wiring harness I recommended.
