With a maximum gross trailer weight of 5,000 lbs and a tongue weight of 500 lbs, this hitch is built to handle light to moderate towing needs. When used with weight distribution, it steps up to 5,500 lbs GTW and 550 lbs TW. The 2" x 2" receiver opening gives you the flexibility to use a wide variety of towing accessories—from ball mounts and cargo carriers to bike racks—without needing extra adapters.
This hitch bolts directly onto the frame using the included mounting hardware—no welding needed. The design lines up with the existing holes for a clean, straightforward install whether you’re working in a driveway or garage. The precision, robotic welding ensures the fit is exact and secure, so you can get it mounted and move on to loading up your gear.
The fully welded steel construction gives this hitch solid strength and durability for long-term use. It’s finished with a gloss black powder coat layered over a protective base coat that stands up to rust and corrosion. That means it stays looking good and performing strong even after years of towing trailers or carrying heavy loads.

excellent quality &price
I arrived in three days and I’m great s hape
It's not installed yet Maybe this summer. This Jeep is a work in progress (slow progress)!
Fastest shipping wver.
Fast shipping an can't wait to put it on
I thought the hitch was damaged but was told that there was something called "flexing". Very easy to take care of and the mounting was easy.
This hitch fit my '97 Jeep Grand Cherokee perfectly. The quality was excellent and E-trailer has has been a great vendor to work with.
I have not had any problems with the hitch. It works as advertised.
This hitch was on and working in less than an hour. Way less. And it looks, today - a year after install, like I put it on yesterday. No peeling, bending or rust. A super value with no lacking of quality.
It fit perfectly and I have been pulling my boat around with it. Also pulling my loaded down utility trailer with no problems.
Very easy install. And the videos on etrailer.com make the wiring a snap. I will be back for sure. Thanks again etrailer.com
Excellent service, excellent product. As it was 50lbs it came ground transport but etrailer shipped immediately, I knew exactly where it was on route and it arrived when it said. In summary no surprises.
Fast shipping and easy install. Would definitly buy from etrailer again.
i was really happy with their servi ce
I am pretty happy so far with the Curt Trailer Hitch III. The package arrived within two days with ALL of the components and was VERY simple to install. I will order from E-Trailer in the future.
***As a side note to installation, I would like to add a few comments. I own a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 5.9L. This is the first time the bolts underneath have been removed and there was a severe amount of rust and calcium build up in the frame. I used a wire brush(battery terminal cleaner -type) but it may be handy to have a tap and die set to re-thread the holes. I had no problems with the nuts whatsoever.**
Shipped well, packaged well and came with all the hardware needed. Easy install and great support during and after the product was shipped. Would highly recommend! These are the pros. Don't use just anyone. Use eTrailer!
