etrailer Class III Trailer Hitch Inststallation - 2017 Kia Sorento- Video

Hey everybody, how's it going Today, we're gonna be going over, and showing you how to install, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver here on our 2017 Kia Sorento. So, this is what our trailer hitch looks like installed on the vehicle. Now, everything is actually nice and tucked up to the bottom of the bumper there. So, we're not gonna reduce our ground clearance as much. In the etrailer trailer hitch receiver they actually have a nice matte black powder coated finish, which helps protect the hitch from rust and corrosion, being that it is on the under side of the vehicle. And, that matte finish also does a better job of help hiding nicks and scratches, and in most cases that blends in well with the underbody paneling on the vehicle a little bit better. more

Today on our 2017 Kia Sorento we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Draw Tite Class III Custom Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number 75908. Here's what our hitch looks like fully installed. It's going to sit right below our bumper, and the cross tube is going to be partially visible. Now, it is a class III hitch, so it's going to give us that 2 inch by 2 inch opening, and it has a nice reinforced collar giving it added strength and a nice look. Now, we're going to have two sets of holes on our receiver tube opening here. The hole closest to the front of the car, that's going to be for our hitch pin and clip, and that's going to be using a standard 5/8 pin and clip. Now, they're not included in our kit, but you can pick some up on our website using part number PC3. The secondary hole back here, that's going to be for the J pin stabilization device which is going to be great for any accessories that don't have a built in anti-rattle. The safety chains are going to be a plate style, and that's going to be welded into the bottom of the receiver and cross tube here, and as you can see we're not going to have any trouble getting most sized hooks on or off. more
