Question:
I have a 2002 Isuzu Rodeo that I want to install a trailer hitch on. I am looking at the Reese code: 33041 hitch. Will it fit with the spare tire mounted without any alterations? Thanks.

Although the Reese 33041 has been discontinued, The Draw-Tite # 75093 is the same exact hitch, with the same weight capacity, the same appearance and the same installation procedure. The only difference is the Draw-Tite sticker placed on the hitch. The # 75093 is designed to fit 2002 Isuzu Rodeo models with the spare tire mounted under the vehicle, as opposed to having it mounted on the rear door. The hitch will fit with no modification needed.
If you'll be using the hitch for towing, rather than exclusively as the attachment point for a bike rack or other hitch mounted accessory, you'll need the following to complete your towing set-up:
Ball mount, part # C45030
1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19260
2 inch trailer ball, part # 63845
Trailer wiring harness, part # 118360
