Trailer Hitch Installation - 2011 Toyota Yaris- Video
Today on our 2011 Toyota Yaris we're going to be taking a look at and installing the Draw Tite Sportframe Class 1 Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number 24819. Overall I really like the way that this hitch is hidden, up behind the fascia here, other than what you're able to see that comes out right underneath there. I think it's going to do a really good job of carrying any hitch mounted accessories, like bike racks or cargo carriers that you may want to use with this. All you can really see is the end of the receiver tube opening here which is inch and a quarter by inch and a quarter, and then the rolled steel safety chain loops right here. Also, you can see how tightly this receiver tube is up towards the fascia here, so that's going to help maintain that clean look, but that's also going to help give plenty of ground clearance. This hitch features a 200 pound max ton weight rating and a 2000 pound gross trailer weight rating. You will want to be sure to refer to the vehicle's owner's manual to see what type of weight the vehicle's rated for. If it's not rated for that weight, you'll want to be sure to go by the guideline in the manual. Now, I'll give you some measurements to help assist you with your selection of hitch mounted accessories. more

Today on our 2011 Toyota Yaris, we're going to be taking a look at and installing the Draw-Tite Class 1 Sportframe trailer hitch receiver, part number 24911. Here's what the hitch looks like, once it's installed on a vehicle. As you can see, there isn't a whole lot that's visible. It's pretty well-hidden. You can see the end of the receiver tube opening here, which is one and a quarter by one and a quarter inches. Here we've got the safety chain loops with where the receiver tube comes out. It's a very good location that's going to help give you plenty of clearance to the rear of the vehicle for any hitch-mounted accessories, such as bike racks or cargo carriers, and even ball-mounts for that light duty towing. This hitch features a 200 pound max tongue weight rating, and a 2,000 pound gross trailer weight rating, and you will want to be sure to refer to your owner's manual to make sure that your vehicle's capable of that type of weight, and if not, you want to go by what the owner's manual says. Now, I'll give you some measurements to help assist you with your selection of hitch-mounted accessories. more
