Ordered on Monday late afternoon it was shipped out same day delivered on Tuesday hitch came in great condition only a couple of very very small scratches all hardware stretch wrapped to hitch, great tracking info I wish all delivery updates were this good would definitely order from you again. Thanks very much
I made it work but was expecting better quality from made in the USA! Most of the welds over all are just "ok" and some are poor. The 2 sides were not parallel (1"off front to back) so I had to use clamps to push/pull it into place. My factory hitch was not rusted out like many others but just warn out due to towing. I didnt weigh the hitches but I think I the factory hitch was still heavier.

This flex, as shown in your photo, is typical as the hitch is made with mild steel to flex with the vehicle over potholes and heavy terrain. You did a good job bending the hitch back. Here are some other tips about flex:

Etrailer has great customer support shipping was fast. Curt manufactured a great hitch direct replacement. Removal and install took around 5 hours with the truck on a lift. I did not have to take the tank out but had to loosen all the tank bolts and support with a stand. Cut a notch out of the old hitch for access to the shear bolt. Pipe wrench and a four foot cheater pipe to remove shear bolt. All the rest was a breeze.
I am very please with the Curt Class IV hitch I purchased for my 2002 Ford Excursion 7.3L diesel. The quality of the steel, welding, and power coat finish looked good enough to part of the car body not as an extension of the frame.
A local installer dropped the fuel tank and did the complete installation. Looks great. Looking forward to pulling my new Jayco trailer when it comes in August.
I was very pleased with etrailer's quick turn around in filling and shipping the order. I have and will purchase other trailer items from etrailer.com!!!
I will be buying more [good job guys]
Perfect for what we need.
This is a one-year review. Arrived in good shape from etrailer.com. The box was in poor shape, but the hitch itself was pristine. It was installed by a shop and I had them replace all the hardware with heavy duty bolts, nuts and washers. After it's first year, there is some rust developing in the receiver box that I'll need to take care of. We live in Pennsylvania with road salt, but it was a mild winter and I feel the hitch shouldn't be rusting yet. All in all, good replacement for factory hitch.

After two years, the hitch only has marginal additional rust, although the vehicle was driven fewer winter miles during this past year. Still a solid purchase.
Installed this on my 2002 Excursion by myself in my driveway. The fuel tank has to be dropped which was not a big deal and a great time to replace the aged fuel pump. Purchased as the original hitch was badly rusted and not trustworthy. I am impressed with build quality and ease of install. I would recommend to anyone in need of replacing their factory hitch. Purchased with the intentions of pulling a 10k travel trailer around the east coast.

Loving it. Have used this extensively. Was worried about rusting as I use a few different ball sizes and remove the pin and hitch often. No rust has shown up and the finish is holding up amazing. Still black and not faded at all from UV exposure. Very happy with this hitch
Dropped truck and hitch off with mechanic. Hardware was Saran wrapped to the hitch upon delivery to me and I did not open it. Mechanic said it was missing two of the nuts. I was charged by shop for those. The cost isn’t the issue, the fact the hardware couldn’t be delivers correctly is.
Perfect fit on a 7.3 diesel 4x4 Excursion. The large eyes for safety chain hooks are great. Looks better than OEM. The factory trailer plug mounted perfectly too. If your Excursion still has the original receiver it might look good from behind the truck, but it probably looks like Swiss cheese from underneath
You will have to at least drop the rear of the fuel tank down to install this. If your fuel filler neck is original, now is a good time to replace it.
Don't pass this website up! This is my second hitch purchased from etrailer and I'm extremely happy with both. Shipping is very fast, installation is a breeze and I've had the latest one hooked up on my ford excursion that pulls an 8k travel trailer. We live in the Salt belt and it is holding up really well through the elements. Will definately be returning here if I ever need another hitch, thanks guys!
Perfect fit for a 2002 Ford Excursion. As had been highlighted in the e trailer information- the fuel tank/ shield had to be lowered to get access to the bolts and shear bolt. Very pleased with how it fits and looks. The original receiver hitch actually fell apart (due to rotting) as one side was being unbolted. etrailer had an excellent price, free shipping. The receiver hitch had no scratches or abrasion on the painted surfaces- nicely packed by etrailer with the rest of my shipment.
I’ve had this hitch for a year now, and I’m generally pleased with it. There were some issues with the original installation as the early Excursion used different hardware to install the hitch. A phone call to George resulted in the correct hardware being sent allowing proper installation. George responded quickly to my problem and resolved it to my satisfaction. My only complaint with the receiver is that the receiver tube seems a little oversized allowing the receiver to float in the hitch.
Perfect fit, but none of the hardware is useable as it was the wrong size. No need for the fish wire as I was able to remove the shear bolts using an easy out, after I drilled the heads off

You mentioned that the hardware was wrong and did not fit. I wanted to ask you what size hardware did you receive? Did it match the hardware listed in the manual? Did you clean out the bolt holes with a wire brush?

I'm sorry that happened, Steven! I'll get you some replacement hardware sent out....
Hitch works great but install was not good as I had use old hardware because the new hardware wouldn't work for the excursion.
Great product. The only thing That could make it better is a bracket or accommodation for the round 7 point plug. I bought a bracket and it had to be mounted on bottom side of receiver. I backed into a stall and the curb broke the hanger. Has to be a better way.
Had no issues with installation. I sprayed down the mounting bolts twice day for a week before I started the job. Dropped the fuel tank and was able to back the bolts right out. Install of the hitch was easy. I was able to remove the old electrical connector for the lights and reinstall it on the new hitch.
Fast delivery! Always good service
The “excellent” rating is not regarding the Curt receiver I purchased but is about Etrailer. I bought the receiver online from etrailer. For whatever the reason ( UPS delivered an empty box to my home ) After speaking to UPS I contacted etrailer and explained what I received. They immediately shipped out another receiver, with no problem. I will buy from them again.
Ordered on Tuesday morning choose 3-5 day shipping, arrived Thursday. This company was awesome and if I need anything for my truck I will be ordering from etrailer.com. Trailer hitch was excellent quality and well packaged not a single scratch on it. So excited my trailer has not been unhooked since. Would have taken a picture but the hitch makes my truck look bad. Lol!
Great replacement hitch for the original that rusted away. Knowing I'd be in for dropping the tank, broken bolts and lots of junk in my eyes I decided to bring it to Performance Plus Diesel and had it installed by a professional. Came out great, very pleased with etrailer and Curt.
Overall this is a good hitch and fits. Options for rusted out factory hitches are limited. The weight ratings are adequate. The crossmember is not as thick and beefy as the original but should be okay. The only negatives are as follows: (1) the mounting holes are excessively large requiring washers. (2) the washers supplied are way too large. (3) The factory bolts and nut plates on my excursion are not M18 but smaller-M14 so the supplied M18 bolts do not fit the factory nut plates. Curt should supply M18 Nuts. I reused my original bolt and nut plates but did use the 2 carriage bolts supplied.
Hitch was really nice had some installation problems that cost and additional 40.00 dollars and some fabrication if it wasn't for that I would have give 5 stars because price shipping and quality were all exceptional
