When you just need to move a small camper, boat, or utility trailer, this Class I hitch is built for the job. It’s rated for a maximum 2,000 lbs gross trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight, giving you reliable strength for light towing. The 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver opening works with common ball mounts and accessories, making it a handy foundation for small-scale hauling or extra cargo on road trips.
For bike racks or cargo carriers, this hitch offers a sturdy connection that stays steady while you drive. When you’re hauling non-trailer loads, use a stabilizing strap such as part?#18050 to support the weight as recommended. Once secured, you’ve got a solid mount for your gear—perfect for heading out with bikes or adding a rear cargo tray without worrying about sway.
This hitch is custom-fit and bolts directly into place using the included hardware kit. The precision, robotic-welded steel construction ensures everything lines up cleanly so you can install it right in the driveway with basic tools. There’s no welding involved and no fascia trimming required, so it’s a practical weekend project for anyone who likes to handle their own upgrades.
A gloss black powder coat over a protective base coat keeps the round-tube steel hitch looking sharp while fighting rust and wear. The heavy-duty welded design adds long-term durability and strength, ready for years of towing or carrying gear without losing its clean finish.

Thank you for expediting the shipping. My friend was able to install it in about 3 hours in his garage with a little help from me. Really looks nice and doesn't distract from the Mustang profile.
I was browsing websites looking for a hitch for my 2010 Ford Mustang when I came across etrailer.com and found exactly what I was looking for. I was impressed with the whole experience. And to make everything better, they even have very helpful installation videos with step by step installation guides. If I had to do it all over, I would buy through etrailer again in a heartbeat.
I used a floor jack and jack stands to support the vehicle in the air, Installed the hitch in the exact order that the video showed and every thing worked out great. I did not have a ratcheting 1/2" wrench so it slowed things down a bit, still changed it out in under 3 hrs. I have a 2010 Mustang GT convertible and the hitch looked just like the one in video.
Hitch worked great and helped me get through Hot Rod Drag Week 2025
Worked out great! Great price!
One word - Excellent! I picked this hitch receiver because I didn't need to cut anything and it used all the existing holes in the frame. I was very impressed with the fish lines for the bolts and how the muffler hanger was re-utilized. I will advise you that taking the muffler off or lowering it is the only way to install the hitch receiver. I was fortunate as the exhaust was not rusty and it came apart easily. One other thing to note is because you don't have to cut anything, the hitch is low. When putting a 2 place Thule rack on the back, it did scrape going up driveways. It was a small concession to not have to cut the valence like every other hitch mandates.
I have a 2010 Ford Mustang, and I bought this hitch so I could use a hitch-mounted bike rack. I absolutely love it. It was easy to install, and it's easy to access whenever I need it.
When the bike rack isn't attached, you can barely tell the hitch is there. In fact, most people wouldn't even notice it unless I pointed it out.
