Features to know about

Haul More Without Compromise: Class III Strength with 2" Receiver

This hitch gives you the power to tow and carry more. With a maximum gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs and a tongue weight of 600 lbs, it’s built for everyday towing like campers, boats, and utility trailers. When used with weight distribution, capacity climbs to 11,000 lbs GTW and 1,100 lbs TW, giving you the strength for heavier loads. The 2" x 2" receiver fits the most common accessories—bike racks, cargo carriers, ball mounts—so you can swap between gear without adapters.

Install It Yourself: Bolt-On Design Fits Right the First Time

You don’t need a lift or a welding setup. The fully welded design bolts directly to the frame using a complete hardware kit and included instructions. Factory holes line up cleanly so there’s no drilling required. The precision robotic welding means each part fits the way it should for a tight, reliable mount—something DIY installers really appreciate when working in their driveway.

Stay Strong Through Every Season: Powder-Coated Steel Resists Corrosion

The sturdy round-tube construction is coated with a gloss black powder finish over a protective base layer that stands up to road salt and moisture. That combination helps prevent rust and keeps the hitch looking good year after year. It’s made to handle tough conditions while still blending in under the bumper for a clean, finished look that doesn’t stick out.

Very easy to install thank you.

Delivery was super fast. When I opened the box, and went to install it, the arms that attached to the frame rails did not line up. The tow hitch looked to be a little bent. Possible damage in shipping. Once I bent the brackets in a little, everything seemed to work. Super fast installation. Took 15 minutes. My only recommendation would be to send lock washers instead of flat washers for a little more bolt security. Overall pleased with the product. Seems to be solid.

  • Can Trailer Hitches for 2009 Ford F-150 Be Used with Weight Distribution to Tow More than 6,000 lbs.
    All of the hitches available for the 2009 Ford F-150 are rated for 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 600 pounds tongue weight capacity. However, all of the available hitches (see link) are rated for use with weight distribution which will allow the hitch to tow 10,000 pounds (# 13368) to 12,000 pounds (# 75691) depending on the hitch. These are ratings for the hitch, but not the truck. You will need to check the owners manual to determine if a weight distribution system can be used...

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring, And Brake Controller For A 2011 Ford F-150
    For your 2011 Ford F-150, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13371, as this hitch will offer the most capacity at 600-lbs tongue weight, and an 6,000-lbs maximum GTW. However, you'll want to reference your vehicle's owner's manual for your maximum towing capacity and compare that rating to your vehicle, and utilize the lower rating between the two. For wiring, if you do not have a factory 4-flat at the rear of your vehicle you can add one with # C58044. Since you mentioned...

  • Picture Request for a Hitch Installed on a 2012 Ford Escape
    Yes we do, I attached a couple pictures of the part # 75751 installed on a 2012 Ford Escape just like yours. I also attached an install video for this hitch. For trailer wiring you would want the Tow Ready Wiring Harness part # 118551. For ball mounts I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Recommendation for 2009 Ford F150
    In order to get a square receiver for y our 2009 Ford F150, you'll need to install a frame mounted receiver hitch. The good news is we have a Class IV available as part # C14002 that has a 10000 towing/1000 lb tongue weight capacity for a reasonable price. Once the hitch is installed, you'll have additional capacity up to the towing capacity of the vehicle. You'll also be able to use a ball mount that will put your trailer at the proper height so it'll tow level. The FAQ article I've...

  • Weight Distribution and Sway Control Recommendations for a 2006 Ford F-150 and Jayco Jayfeather
    When choosing a weight distribution system, you will want to calculate the tongue weight of the trailer when it is loaded and ready to tow. Then you have to add in the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle to the tongue weight of the trailer. Once you have the total tongue weight calculated, you will want to choose a system that has a tongue weight capacity range that puts your calculated total right in the middle of the range. For example, if the loaded weight...
