This fully welded, corrosion-resistant vehicle trailer hitch is perfect for your light-duty towing and hitch rack needs. Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry strength standards. Drawbar, pin and clip sold separately.
Features:
Specs:
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.
At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.

Today on our 2011 Toyota Camry Hybrid we will be installing part number 36416 by Draw-Tite. This will also be comparable to Hidden Hitch part number 90152. Here are some measurements to be aware of when ing a drawbar, bike rack or cargo carrier for your new hitch. From the center of the hitch pin to the outer most point of the rear bumper is 4-1/2 inches. And from the top of the receiver tube to the ground is 9-1/2 inches. Now let us go ahead and do the installation of the hitch. 0:37
Our first step is going to be to remove the spare tire of the vehicle. Remove the spare tire jack assembly. And now we can remove the spare tire. Now that we have gained access to the trunk pan, we are going to go ahead and raise the vehicle up and remove some components before we can begin the installation of our new hitch. We have four fascia tabs that will have to be removed and then multiple hold downs for the trunk pan and trim that will have to be removed prior to the installation of our new hitch. We will be removing this and it will stay off of the vehicle and returned to the customer. We will go ahead and remove the trim on the passenger side. Now that we have our trim pieces out of the way, we are going to need to lower the exhaust for the installation of our new hitch. I like to use a little spray lubricant on the three rubber hangers that we will be removing. 2:07
Now that we have our exhaust loose, we are going to go back over to the driver side. There is this support bracket with three fasteners that will have to be removed. This bracket will be let off the vehicle and replace by the new hitch. These are our two connections points on the driver side. They will be identical over here on the passenger side. And now that we have all of our items removed, what I want to do is make sure these holes are cleaned. So I am going to go ahead and use some lubricant and a nylon tube brush, part number 814092. And I always recommend using one of the new bolts to check your threads before trying to install your new hitch. Keep in mind that we are going to be trying to sneak our hitch in between our bumper fascia and the trunk pan. So it would be a good idea to have a second set of hands to help you raise that in to position. 3:09
We are going to be using our 10 millimeter bolts and conical tooth washers. The teeth of the washer will face the hitch. And at this time we are just going to be hand tightening all of our bolts until we get all of them in, lined up and fastened securely. Now that I have my four rear fasteners finger tight and my hitch is aligned in the center of the vehicle, I can go ahead and tighten them down. I am going to repeat the same process, on the passenger side, of hand tightening my bolts. And then we are going to torque all four bolts to specification. We are going to repeat the same process on the passenger side. Now that we have our four rear fasteners secured and tightened to specifications, we need to drill out our trunk pan holes here. The reason for removing the spare tire was so we do not puncture anything as we make our new holes. Go ahead and drill our holes out now. 4:04
Now that we have got our holes drilled out, we are going to get back in to the trunk pan. You can see our new holes here that we have drilled in to the trunk pan. We are going to use that to install our block and bolt. Now you can see a coating here in the base of the vehicle. What we want is a metal to metal contact surface. So what we are going to do is mark out our block and then we are going to clean this coating off so that we get a good contact for our block with a metal to metal surface. Now that we have the undercoating taken care of, we can go ahead and put our bolt and block back in place. Now that we have our bolt and block in place, we are going to get back under the vehicle and install our lock washer and nut. Now that we have everything hand tightened, we can go ahead and torque down to specifications. Now that we have all of our fasteners torqued to specifications, we can reinstall our bumper fascia tabs and our exhaust hangers and we will be in the home stretch of the installation of our new hitch. That completes the installation of our hitch, part number 36416.

Unbelievably EZ Installation The installation was far easier than I had imagined. The video was a good introduction to the installation process and the printed instructions were sufficiently clear. I particularly liked this hitch because the horizontal structure of the hitch is hidden by the bumper, the only thing visible is the receiver for the hitch or, as in my case, a bike rack.2439

this hitch fit the 2008 toyota Camry perfect, and on a good note, for most who read directions,if you have the 4 cylinder engine with the tail pipe on the passenger side, you don't have to loosen the exhaust mounts. simply snake the hitch over the tail pipe first and then install the outside bolt to hold in place. undo the 2 plastic skirt retainers and lift the hitch in place on the drivers side and install the rest of the bolts and torque to specs. clean the crap from your trunk, remove spare tire and drill your two 1/2" holes from under the car for the main support brackets.add shims and torque. total time,20 minutes and 1 beer !!! awsome product, ya, the beer too !!!21226

etrailer.com did a great job getting me the Hitch and Receiver. The instructional videos were also awesome. It took me just over an hour to install the hitch with nothing more than a socket set and a drill. Very easy! Save the $350 that a dealership charges for labor and do it yourself.18512

Hitch fit perfect. Easy to understand instruction Took a little over an hour doing it alone. Would have been easier and quicker with an extra person to help hold the hitch in place. Hitch completely hidden except for the receiver end.12671

Perfect on a 2008 Camry SE Fits perfectly on a 2008 Camry SE. Virtually unnoticeable and functions as expected. Currently towing a 16.5 ft speedboat and 4x6 1.5 tonne utility trailer. Downgraded performance rating as item 19258 2-5/8" riser bar shifts slightly on stop/start due to pin size. No other concerns what so ever. 2068
