This Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver gives you real towing power with a Class III rating and a 2" x 2" opening that works with most ball mounts, bike racks, and cargo carriers. It’s rated for 8,000 lbs maximum gross trailer weight and 800 lbs maximum tongue weight, or up to 10,000 lbs GTW and 1,000 lbs TW when used with weight distribution. The square-tube design is fully welded for strength you can rely on for towing small campers, boats, or utility trailers.
The hitch is made from sturdy, powder coated steel that stands up to rust and road grime. A gloss black powder coat finish over a protective base coat keeps the surface looking clean and resists corrosion over time. It’s strong enough for regular use while maintaining that clean look under the bumper.
You can bolt this hitch directly onto your vehicle’s frame—no welding or drilling needed. The precision, robotic welding ensures everything lines up right for a straightforward install. It’s designed for DIY installation using common tools, so getting set up for towing or hauling doesn’t need to be complicated.
The concealed cross tube means only the receiver is visible once installed. This keeps a tidy appearance at the back of your vehicle while still giving you full towing capacity. It blends in neatly under the bumper, so you get a strong hitch without the bulky look.

Shipped to me quickly and installed just as the directions and YouTube video showed.
Great product, fits perfect.
Hitch and connector received in good condition alough as others have mentioned the box that it was shipped in was not in such good condition. As far as the installation, the videos were spot on HOWEVER,DIYers, taking off the main bolts on the bumper, BEWARE , they are on extremely tight so I stress a breaker bar and or a powerful impact wrench is advised.
Great product, easy to install.
Just need to find a better way to package when shipping, box was very damaged, luckily nothing wrong with the hitch receiver
Product looks great but the packaging was horrible. A quarter of the hitch was out of the box. Not sure if the damage was caused by UPS or not but the cardboard for such a heavy object was not thick enough. More and stronger tape would have helped. Thankfully, no damage was evident.
Hitch is well made and sturdy.
One issue that made it harder to install is that the bumper flange was bent in shipping. Box had about 4 holes tore into it with flange sticking out one end.
Do not torque the hitch down before dry fitting the bumper to see if your holes line up!! I was off about 1/4" on the bumper frame holes on one side. I had measured hitch against frame and torqued as in video. Then had to loosen and tweak hitch to line up to body and holes.
I purchased this hitch for my 2024 Chevy Colorado Z71. It is a quality product and was fairly easy to install. The hardest part was getting the original factory installed hardware off. I strongly suggest watching the etrailer video as it is pretty spot on.
Customer service was outstanding.

Perfect. Great product. Fast shipping.
Certainly is solid and pretty heavy for a Class III. I’m a 75 yo hardheaded gear head and after 6 hours, 3 tries and a little help from my 73 yo wife, we got the #*@# thing installed and torqued too, lol. Can’t see why it won’t perform admirably. Thanks.
Shipping was great, info on installation was great, the issues i had was big deep scratches down to the metal in product. The part of the reciever that mounts to tge frame was bent and didnt allow me to get bolts in correctly, but it was easilt fixed with a couple hit with a mallet and 2x4 to get it to line up correctly. Other than those thing happy overall with everything!
Hitch seems to be well built, shipping is awsome fast, my only problem is it looks like it was dragged behind the ups truck all the way to my door step.
Hitch did not have side plates. 2 large bolts each side. i feel it looses a lot of strength not have original mounts
The Curt hitch is awesome, however your shipping SUCKS! I called your shipping department and requested that they package and secure my order being shipped from Utah to California Please see enclosed photos of how you shipped my hitch. The hitch was scrapped to raw metal in areas .
Excellent fit, not too difficult to install, great videos to make installation clear. A great product all the way around, doing it yourself can save hundreds, and the product is extremely solid.
Order arrived quickly. Install went smoothly especially with the help of the videos.

Install looks great, James! What kind of towing plans do you have planed, if you have any yet.
Fit perfect. Easy installation
The hitch is well built and fit like a glove. I’m a 73 yr old farm boy and I installed this myself….no hoist, no pit, not much for special tools. It’s a little tricky getting the 4 factory bolts off (I probably should have heated them), but managed all the same. The electrical connections can be brittle, so watch that and maybe label for reinstall. The hitch matched the holes perfectly and will last longer than the truck.
My second hitch receiver from e trailer. My other car has one and it was perfect fit as well. 2024 Colorado. I had to remove the stock one and put in the E trailer hitch crossmember. I watched the video a couple of times. I actually like the video on the 2024 Canyon better. Both great videos. It took me about 2.5 hours. I was by myself so it took a little effort. But not bad at all. I didn’t even get mad or yell. Except for how tight the original bolts were. Make sure you have the tools you need before starting. I definitely needed the break over bar. They are 21mm bolts. Cleaned the holes after removal much easier going back in. The two bumper nuts are 15mm.
The wires on the vehicle have some tricky disconnects but the video helps with that. All in all very easy swap out. It looks great too.
Replaced the plastic fake cap on the bumper with the new 7 pin 4 pin connector from
e trailer.
The tutorial you guys produced made the process super easy.
Make sure to unplug ALL the wires first - I did not and had a pucker moment when removing the bumper. I’d recommend a good breaker bar on the 21mm bolts at first, after that an impact does the trick. The bolts have thread locker and do put up a fight coming out. Took about 3.5 hours for me, but I like taking breaks. This unit is almost twice the weight of the placeholder and joke of a receiver that comes on these 2024 Canyons without the optioned tow package. No doubts it is rated for 8000 pounds. For ~$250 on sale I am very pleased!

1 year later and this receiver is doing just fine, with some very minor nitpicks. My self install has been solid - no movement of any bolts, even after attempting a sand recovery of a half ton truck with my tiny Canyon. Everything is still rock solid. My one complaint - the finish on this receiver has started to flake off around the hitch mount’s outer edge and visibly rust. Some black high temp spray paint fixed it easily enough, but with the less than handful of times I’ve actually used the receiver, I’m surprised it started so soon. Still happy with my purchase a year later!
Not my first purchase through them. Quality, heavy duty equipment that fits like a glove at a price you can't argue with. My truck required the bumper to be removed for install but the process was simple.

Looks perfect, Jack! Thanks for saying how even though you had to remove the bumper, it wasnt that bad. I think other readers will be relieved to know that if they are considering getting this hitch for their truck, too!
Excellent trailer hitch and electrical plug I highly recommend!!
The trailer hitch was easy to install and works fine. I am 100% satisfied with my purchase
Fast delivery. Excellent customer service! The trailer hitch and hookups all fit and installed flawlessly. This was my second time purchasing from e-trailer and will definitely do it again.
Great trailer hitch receiver, fits very nicely, and looks great, I highly recommend, Thanks so much, for a quality product
