Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.



Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.


In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

Hitch was delivered in three days. Installation was easy but took me a lot longer then the estimated install time. I had to remove the fascia under the bumper in order to move the license plate holder. I will be using the hitch to carry my wife's mobility scooter on the fron of the motorhome, also adds a little weight to the underloaded front axle on the motorhome.55912

hitch went on and has a nice fit,it is easy to go ahead and take the front bumper off,then you can place bolts into frame and not have to fish them,you have to realine front bumper anyway,I left off the plastic underskirt,then I cut the plastic along the bottom of bumper in the middle section(l---l) then with two black wire ties,tied them thru holes used to mount lower skirt and around hitch to keep it tight. used it today to hook to,got van stuck in muddy field,just needed a little pull 54125

Just installed the Draw-Tite front mount hitch receiver on my 08 Ford chassis motor home. The instructions were clear and the included wire bolt pullers made installing the bolts inside the frame a snap. A fine product and a great place to shop. 30931
