What Hitch do You Recommend for My 2021 Jeep Gladiator that Will Give Me an OEM Look?

Question:

I am looking for a hitch that will give me a super OEM look installed on my 2021 Jeep Gladiator. What do you recommend? I don't want any bulky design if possible.

For a super sleek OEM style on your 2021 Jeep Gladiator, I recommend the Curt Hitch - 2" # CU74FR. The Curt does not have any visible crosstubes (because there are no crosstubes involved), and it has a durable coating for rust/corrosion resistance. Apart from providing you from 500 pounds of maximum tongue weight and 5,000 pounds of maximum towing weight, the Curt is also assembled in the U.S.A. As with all hitches, I recommend that you consult with your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure that your Gladiator can accommodate the weight you want to tow. I went ahead and attached a picture of how the hitch fits on your vehicle.

If you are planning to tow, I recommend a ball mount and ball like the ones that come with the Curt Towing Starter Kit # C45534. Also, if you need a 4-way wiring harness, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118786 (if you do not have a factory tow package) or the Curt T-Connector # C55384 (if you do have a tow package). These harnesses will provide you with turn signals, running lights, and brake lights.
