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.

Easily attach a variety of accessories to the front of your vehicle with this fully welded, corrosion-resistant trailer hitch receiver. Perfect for winches, spare tire carriers and more.I chose Draw-tite because they are built very well and this one is no different. The welds are done well and I have no fear that this product will serve me well. The install wasnt to bad for a DIY type like me and the fit was excellent, only took a few hours. Knowing that I can now be pulled out of a bad situation or pull someone else out is comforting with the help of a hitch mounted winch. The Price was right and etrailer shipped it out fast although packing could use a smaller box . Oh yeah, UPS sure tested the toughness of this receiver ! . Great product and great service from etrailer
im very satisfied with my front receiver. ive used it as a recovery point,to move trailers, and as a mount for bike rack and cargo holder. if i had a winch platethat would be very handy too.
etrailerhad a fair price, quick shipping, and overall great customer service. i would use them again andrecommend to a friend as well.
Hitch went on well, no missing or incorrect hardware.
One bolt (RH front) was a little tricky, ended up pulling the bumper away a little to get it started, but not a big deal.
Thickness of materials and welding are good.
Had to notch the air dam plastic piece in three places, easily done with tin snips and a utility knife.
Very happy overall. Tucks up in tight, doesn't hang down, not even noticeable. Now I have a winch mount, but even more importantly I have a really good pull point on the front, which these Cherokees lack.
Would certainly recommend.

Finish is holding up well after all year outside. still very satisfied with this hitch mount.
Perfect fit for my 88 jeep Wagoneer Xj (Cherokee) Was easy to install matched right up with pre existing holes in the frame. Use it frequently to carry bike rack in the front with travel trailer in the back.

Still working great! Very handy to push travel trailer into those hard to fit spots.
Excellent quality, good fit, was very easy to install and only the two holes to drill into the Jeep frame.
Bolted right up to 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport. May try a home snow plow on it at a later date. Will also use as pull point next time Jeep has a breakdown or whatever. Order processed quickly with fast shipping. Very pleased.

After a year have enjoyed using the product to move my trailer around the yard and into the garage. Very precise way of moving any trailer around.
Great quality but fishing the front bolts in is no fun but can be done.
Worked perfect on a 1992 Cherokee. Easy install with the open end design to fit around the sway bar mount. That way you are not trying to hold it up and bolt it on. A tip start your rear sway bar bolt a few turns, then slide the reciever in. Be careful not to let it rock forward or you will know how well built it is! Then start the front sway bar mounts. Go just enough to keep it in place when you drill two holes in the frame to bolt it down in the front. This mounted just below my bumper and will not cause me any ground clearance issues. Well built I mounted a cradle and 10k pound winch. Great product!!!!
Pieces welded were not align properly making holes misalignment. The company that making these hitches need to do a better job.

Thank you for your review. It does sound like it is possible the hitch was flexed out of place in shipping. This is an easy fix. I have attached a helpful article below to help you flex it back into place.

Worth every penny!I bought this hitch for the front of my '92 XJ Cherokee as an offroad recovery point. I also needed it to replace a different brand. The other brand (Hidden Hitch) hung down real low in the front of my Jeep and was constantly getting banged & hung up when I went offroad. I replaced it with this Draw Tite hitch and the difference is night vs. day. This hitch tucks up real tight to the body and you can barely see it. No more snags or curious stares. Best front recovery point for the XJ Cherokee.
Front ReceiverGreat product, I mounted it on the front of my Cherokee and use it with a fabricated base plate to tow my Jeep behind my motorhome, plus I also launch my boat using it. I have also mounted my motorcycle carrier on it.
Product is well made. Bolt hole clearance was very tight and made it a real challenge to line up on my Cherokee. Also had to remove front bumper to install the 2 front bolts and plates.
Have not installed yet, but looks like a well made product , nice finish, the welding looks great. Going to use it on my 97 Jeep Cherokee XJ for a winch set up on the front of my rig. Nice talking to Emily, knows her stuff. Fast service. Thank you.
A very handy hitch
Exactly what I was looking for at an excellent price. But above all, the shipping was unbelievably fast!!
Great product and amazing customer service. To have any company follow up with a customer a year later to see how they like the product they purchased not only shows confidence in the products they sell but also confirms for the customer that they purchased from the right company.
Used to move 26ft pontoon in a tight approach into a garag
Great product easy install has been great in recovery situations and to haul the jeep around would buy again!
Can’t believe how fast it came, within four days with free shipping.
Bolt holes were slightly off, had to file the holes for about ten minutes to get it to fit, but it worked great, solid as a rock.
I don't have it installed yet but I am impressed with the quality and workmanship of this hitch. Instruction are prcise and easy to undertand. I will be buying additional product from you in the near future...
Thanks great
Great
Hitch fits well and looks good
