Yes, you can. You will want the Curt Fish Wire Bolt Leader - 1/2" item # C58400. This is the same 1/2" one that comes with the item # e98839.
Please note that it is recommended to use all new hardware when installing a previously used hitch. The bolts and nuts are only recommended to be torqued down once. To replace the hardware you will want the Replacement Hardware Kit for Trailer Hitches item # RHK. Where it says Hitch Item Number you will want to put e98839. The fish wire tool will be included as well.
I have linked the installation instructions for the etrailer item # e98839 below along with an installation video to help you get it set up.
