Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2012 Toyota Tacoma that will not Rust  

Question:

Helpful Expert Reply:

We do have several trailer hitches available for the 2012 Toyota Tacoma. I recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75236. I have included a link to the installation details and a video showing a typical installation for you to view.

Hitches are made out of steel and are constantly exposed to the elements so they may eventually rust. Each manufacturer we offer coats the hitches with a paint that will prevent and ward off rust. If hitches are damaged or scratched and the metal is exposed then it can rust.

If you intend to do some towing, the recommended ball mount is # C45030, and you can use pin and clip # PC3. For a ball, you can use # 19260 (1-7/8 inch diameter), or # 63845 (2 inch diameter). For Trailer wiring, use T-One Connector w/Upgraded Circuit Protected Converter, # 118496. I have included a link to the installation instructions for this wiring harness for you to view as well as a video of this harness being installed on a 2010 Tacoma. The installation on your 2012 model will be similar.
