Most Popular Bolt-On for 2012 BMW X5

Excellent company, shipping, customer service, first of all! Love the new 2-5/16" hitch coupler! Now I don't have to flip the ball when going between my band equipment trailer (lead guitarist in a rock/blues/country band), and the boat!!! I only used 3 bolts since my old surge brake hitch coupler only utilized two of the 1/2" bolts. I drilled the trailer for the 3rd rear/lower 1/2" bolt using schedule 8 yellow zinc bolts and hardware. SOLID!!! etrailer.com for ALL your needs!!! I'll be converting and rebuilding the front axle brakes in the off-season. Already have the electro-hydraulic unit.

Of course, none of the holes lined up. So me and "Macgyver" had our work cut out for us. In saltwater my old coupler lasted 15 years till it rusted so bad I was afraid it would break apart. So this time I painted it with the same non-skid paint that's on my aluminum boat deck. Some serious stuff. But first I cleaned it thoroughly, used primer, then the no-skid paint. I step on this coupler 200+ days a year with saltwater feet. This one was a lot more HD than my old one. A bit longer and just plain nicer over all. I hope now to get 20 more years out of this VERY expensive unit...reason for 'not' 5 stars. Dang almost $XXX when all said and done? That's A LOT! I KNOW, the shipping isn't cheap, but I am. Last year all new galv. rims and tires from etrailer and what a great deal that was! So, I guess I shouldn't complain, Okay, 4.75 stars, cuz no one is perfect.

Built a kayak trailer using coupling. Welded up great and problem free for a year

I put this Coupler on a 2021 INTECH FLYER PURSUE CAMPER. The camper weighs only 1500lbs. On the first trip we headed to Maine from Massachusetts. Outside of Portland Me. we went over a small bump in the road were they were repaving the highway and the trailer came off of the ball. I pulled off the highway and and looked at the damage. All my electronic connectors were ripped off the camper when the tongue hit the pavement and it also bent the Fulton swivel jack. The Coupler was still in the locked position. I could not believe the damage. I put the trailer back on the ball and attached it with ratchet straps. We made it a few miles to a NAPA parts store. Thank God I had a tool box with me. We replace the coupler with a HEAVY DUTY Coupler from NAPA along with the electric connectors. Two hours later I was Back on the road. Before I install the new Coupler I compared it with the E Trailer one. They were night and day. DO NOT BUY THIS CHEAP COUPLER.

Heavy duty and perfect for the 3”x5” boat trailer. Paired with a Fulton swing arm and it turned out perfect for my Nitro boat and the space issue I have.

The Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler - eZ-Latch - Zinc - 2" Ball - Bolt On - 10,000 lbs. was so simple to install, took 20 minutes at most to remove old coupler and install this one. The coupler appears to be rigid in design but will see how this holds up to a 20' airboat trailer.

Always great service and fast delivery! Tongue coupler and wheels and tires made a big difference!

It has been a perfect upgrade and replacement for my 27ft enclosed snowmobile trailer! The EZ-latch function is a great feature! Highly recommend this hitch!

Easy to install. Love the process of connecting the trailer and not having to remember to latch the coupler. Very smooth.

I love how easy these are to use.

My old firewood trailer became uncoupled from my truck. I needed a quality replacement so I chose this one. I haven't installed it yet but it looks to be high quality.

Etrailer... I have purchased a few items thru your page and have always been pleased with the products I get from you but most of all how fast you have always shipped out even during this covid time. Hitch came out of the box and had it bolted on in less than 15 minuts. Thanks

Used this coupler to replace the aging and obsolete folding surge coupler on my dated and neglected Nautique Ramlin trailer. Deleted the surge system and this bolted up perfectly. Super easy and smooth operation for locking onto the tow ball.

Awesome coupler. Solid contact with the ball, super low profile, easy to use latch , this is exactly what I wanted as I run a bike rack above the coupler, plenty of clearance for unhitching the trailer without removing the rack.

Parts were shipped right away. Easy to order.

This trailer coupler is a bear! The sleeve that attaches to the trailer tongue is very heavy duty and the coupler itself is forged steel. Will be hauling a water tank over rough terrain on my ranch with the trailer and this coupler instills complete confidence.

This hitch system has been great. One thing I was very happy to see once I got it, was that there are grease fittings for all the articulating parts of the hitch. On side benefit is that I no longer have to worry about having an anti-theft system for the trailer. Unless you have the matching draw bar, no one is going to be able to drive off with your trailer unless they have a flat bed with them.

I can’t believe the holes you drilled aren’t standard per your typical ball hitch tongue. Luckily I have a trailer hitch company that will drill to extend hole lower to meet standard specs.
