With a 4,000-lb maximum gross trailer weight and 600-lb tongue weight rating, this hitch gives you the strength to tow small campers, boats, or utility trailers without worry. The 2" x 2" receiver opening works with common ball mounts, bike racks, and cargo carriers, so you can haul gear or bikes just as easily as a trailer. It’s fully welded for durability and built for regular use, not just the occasional weekend job.
The square-tube design is fully welded and robotically assembled for a precise fit and long-term strength. A gloss black powder coat sits over a protective base coat to guard against rust and road grime. That powder coating doesn’t just protect the steel—it keeps the hitch looking sharp even after years of use in rain or snow.
You don’t need special tools or a lift to get this installed. The hitch bolts directly to the frame using existing holes and comes with a complete hardware kit and installation instructions. No welding or drilling required. The concealed cross tube keeps things looking clean under the bumper while still giving you full Class III towing capacity.
If you’re towing heavier loads and want better balance, this hitch is rated for up to 4,000 lbs GTW and 600 lbs TW when used with a compatible weight distribution system. That setup helps even out the load between your trailer and tow vehicle for smoother handling and braking on the road.

Quick delivery. Easy installation. Best done with helping hands.
Came today. Easy installation, less than an hour. I did it myself but would be easier with a second set of hands. Exhaust hangers were hard to get off, (I don't have the removal pliers) but lube helped.
Installation was a breeze, I took my time and still was done in less than an hour! With the wire supplied for fishing the bolts through it was so easy my kids could have installed it!!
It got here quick and install was easy! Great product!
Tracking was great. New exactly where it was in the process and shipped out the same day I ordered. Received quickly. Was able to install myself without too much trouble.
Easy to install and is exactly what I e xpe
The receiver does not project enough from the bumper. If you utilize a luggage carrier, there is not enough space between the carrier and the bumper to insert the pin through the receiver. Had to purchase an extension to use the carrier. The slots for the safety chains are directly below the hole for the pin. Once the pin is inserted through the receiver it is in the way when clipping the safety chain to the receiver. I would not recommend this hitch.
Great quality, easy to install
Fit was perfect
Easy direction, simple install. Love it!
Quick delivery and a great product... installation was simple and just as described in the video found on the web site.

Couldnt be happier with this trailer hitch after 1 year! Absolutely no complaints.
I was very please with how easy this bolted on. The instructions would have been enough but there was a video online that showed how to install making it an easy project. An extra set of hands or two would help bolting on the hitch, but after that,one person is all you need. The hitch reciever feels well made and this item was delivered promptly and price was unbeatable. The company has great customer service. I highly recommend!
Highly recommend this site! The whole purchase, shipping and installation process was simple, fast and efficient. Easy to identify the correct hitch for my vehicle, competitive pricing, great communication from order submission to shipment to receipt of the part plus awesome installation video made this a simple DIY project. Thank you etrailer.com!
Calls for 2 man installation, I did it myself with a floor jack and jack stands. Raised the back a few inches, then lowered the exhaust onto a jack stand, maybe 4-6 inches. Then used another hydraulic jack to hold Hitch in place while I secured nuts. Probably easier than using a lift.
I put it by myself on my 17 cx9. Great product, sturdy, tough and nice looking. Easy to install and after a year it is still properly attached and no issues. I use it only to hold bike racks and never on real hitching. Nevertheless, great product!
The hitch arrived in great shape with fast shipping. The installation videos were super helpful and installation went off without a hitch! Friendly customer communication. I will return again to trailer.

Wow, that's great! Thank you, Nathan :) Kudos to you for tacking the install head on!
etrailer is the place to shop because their products are top notch quality and they ship fast! Installation of Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Class III - 2" on my 2019 Mazda CX9 was super simple thanks to etrailer's step by step instructional videos.
We needed a hitch receiver for my wife's 2019 Mazda CX-9 and Etrailer provided the perfect product. It arrived sooner than expected and was much more heavy duty than we anticipated. We recently used it to tow a small boat over a thousand miles and didn't have a single issue. The boat, motor, trailer combo weighs about 800lbs. I would recommend having a mechanic do the work since you really need an automotive lift to get at the undercarriage of the vehicle. Also, don't forget to research trailer light wiring if your vehicle does not come equipped with a plug on or near the bumper. Overall, we are VERY pleased with our new hitch receiver!

A year later, we are still extremely pleased with our hitch receiver!
Great product. I watched the videos to help with installation and it made it easy.
Great experience and resources. From the web site confirming correct trailer hitch, to "How To" videos, very smooth process. Delivery was really quick. Had my friend help out, he didn't see the videos and got the mounting plate "stuck" inside the channel, but I was able to rescue it and then get the hitch mounted correctly. Friend was really impressed with the manufacturing and how well it was designed. Also got the Wiring Harness (ignore the Toyota First Aid Kit in the Wiring Picture) and installed just in case I will need to use a trailer with lighting on it. Currently will use the hitch to transport bikes.
Well Done!

Still working Great! Used it for a Bike Rack, no issues. Have relocated to Tennessee and will be using it to tow a small trailer for hauling items.
This receiver installed on my wife’s 2022 Mazda CX-9 without issue. Recommend watching the install videos provide on the etrailer website. I was able to install by myself in under 45 minutes.
Well packaged, no scratches, etc. Instructions were clear, and it was also really helpful to have the install videos available through Etrailer.
Perfect fit! Hardest part was threading the bolts but totally doable with the right tools and ideally a second set of hands. Super happy with it.
Easy to install with the right tools and a friend. Since it's a "hidden" hitch it tucks nicely under the bumper and you don't have to worry about banging your shin on it. The etrailer informational install video was super helpful getting this hitch installed.
