This is the second Curt hitch I have purchased from etrailer. Both were superior quality to other hitches. Fit and finish were excellent. Curt recommends cutting a 2" hole through the plastic portion of the Gladiator bumper. Do yourself a favor and remove the bumper (four easy bolts), install the hitch and have a professional looking install. Great product!

Absolutely no problems. Curt hitches are superior to the factory installed hitches.



by:

Perfect fit (2024 Jeep Gladiator), Easy installation. solo installation...30 minutes.



by:

The hitch itself works fine and as you would expect. Installation is straightforward and easy. The reason why I’m rating this low, and honestly I can’t believe they would ask me to rate this one year later, is because I ordered the wrong hitch initially due to not selecting the correct package on my vehicle. After them refusing to help me return the old hitch in anyway and then they charged me $80 for one fishing wire all I can say is if you ever order the wrong hitch from these people just keep it. It’s better than paying $200 to test to see if it will work on your truck. I will never use etrailer again.



by:

Super pleased with the tow receiver I purchased from you for my Jeep Gladiator. Nice solid product, easy install, looks amazing on my Jeep and now ready to use. The only change I made in install was to remove my rear bumper for install opposed to drilling through it for the center bolt like in the supplied directions. Loved the install bolt tool they came with. Thanks etrailer!



by:
2024 Jeep Gladiator

Easy to install, elected to remove the bumper and not drill the hole in the plastic, took less than a half hour to install



by:

Great project, only complaint they powder coated inside where the screw goes so I wasn’t able to put it on together. But I’ll make it work.

  • Do You Carry the Replacement Hardware for My Curt Hitch On My 2024 Jeep Gladiator?
    Hello Ray, We do sell replacement hardware kits, but we do not sell the parts individually. You are going to want to order the Replacement Hardware Kit for Trailer Hitches # RHK. When you are on the product page you will need to put 13434 (the manufacturers hitch number for # CU74FR) where it says "Hitch Item Number." Are you swapping cars, or did it not come with all the hardware?

  • Does the Curt Hitch CU74FR Fit a 2024 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon?
    Yes, it does! The Curt Hitch item # CU74FR has been confirmed to fit all models of the 2024 Jeep Gladiator including the Rubicon. This hitch is by far one of the easiest to install. It easily attaches to your Jeeps rear bumper with three included bolts. The installation takes only a few minutes. The Curt Hitch item # CU74FR is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below to help...

  • What is the Difference Between the Draw-Tite and Curt Hitches for My 2021 Jeep Gladiator?
    There are a couple of pretty big differences between the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DR64FR and the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU74FR that fit your 2021 Jeep Gladiator, and I'll go over them so you can decide which trailer hitch is the better option for you. The first big difference is the install, with the Draw-Tite hitch being a more "traditional" install that secures to your Jeep's trailer frame using a combination of existing hardware and supplied hardware.

  • Can OEM Hitch on 2021 Jeep Gladiator Be Replaced with Draw-Tite 76310
    If your OEM hitch is simply bolted into place onto the crossmember, you could indeed remove it and install the Draw-Tite 76310 which we sell as # DR64FR Class III hitch in its place. If the existing hitch is welded into place, it could be an integral part of the vehicle frame and shouldn't be removed. If what you're referring to is simply the crossmember at the rear of the vehicle that has the holes to accept a bolt on receiver, you can simply use # CU74FR, but you'd need a hole saw to...

    For a hitch that attaches directly to your Gladiator's bumper you will want the Curt Trailer Hitch item # CU74FR. This hitch is custom fit and uses included hardware to mount to your Jeep. I really like this hitch because of the simplicity of the installation. This hitch attaches to the underside of your Jeep Gladiator's rear bumper with three bolts. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have attached...

    I checked with Curt and according to them, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU74FR is a fit for all models of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator, including the Sport. You are correct that it will install partially through the ball mount hole in the bumper, as you can see by the accompanying cut out of the installation manual. I have added a link to that installation manual for you to check out as well of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU74FR.

  • Best Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2023 Jeep Gladiator
    The best overall option for adding a Curt trailer hitch receiver to your 2023 Jeep Gladiator is the one that gives you the most overall function and capacity, which is the hitch that bolts onto your frame: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C74DR There are a few reasons the # C74DR is the best Curt hitch, starting with the install. This hitch just bolts right into your Jeep's frame rails, without any type of drilling needed, and it really couldn't be easier. The other Curt hitch, part #...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System or Extended Ball Mount for Clearing a Tail Gate
    Yeah, there are no TorkLift SuperHitches available for a 2023 Jeep Gladiator or any Jeep. Those are the heaviest duty bumper pull hitches and are reserved for large trucks with the highest towing capacities. You'll want to look into a weight distribution system with an extended shank if your Gladiator's hitch is rated for one. If you have a hitch that mounts underneath your frame like the Curt item # C74DR you can use a weight distribution system. For a 550 lbs tongue weight, I recommend...

  • Which Trailer Hitch for 2022 Jeep Gladiator
    We offer the Curt # CU74FR and the Draw-Tite # DR64FR hitches for the 2022 Jeep Gladiator. The Curt # CU74FR mounts to predrilled holes in the rear crossmember/impact structure while the Draw-Tite # DR64FR attaches directly to the vehicle frame. The Draw-Tite has a higher capacity (7500 lbs towing/1125 lbs tongue weight), while the Curt has a 5000 lb towing/500 lb tongue weight capacity. The capacity is kind of a moot point though, because the Gladiator's towing capacity maxes out at...

    Out of the two Curt Trailer hitches, I recommend The Curt Trailer Hitch # C74DR. I like this hitch over the other Curt hitch because it has a more traditional installation and will attach to the frame of your 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon when the Curt Trailer Hitch # CU74FR attaches to the Gladiator's rear bumper cover and will secure through the rear cross member. I will attach pictures of the installations below. The Curt Hitch # C74DR also has a higher towing capacity at 7,500 pounds...

    For your 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon you are correct that there are two trailer hitch receivers available, the Curt # CU74FR and the etrailer # e67AR. Both of these hitches are very similar in the sense that they install in virtually the exact same way, and both have the same 500lb tongue weight rating and 5,000lb trailer weight rating. If you will be towing a trailer with your Gladiator you will also need a vehicle wiring harness # 118786, and a ball mount, hitch ball, and hitch pin...

  • Draw Tite or Curt Hitch for OEM Look Installed on 2020 Jeep Gladiator
    I checked out the OEM hitch that fits your 2020 Jeep Gladiator and appearance-wise you'd only see the hitch opening hanging below the rear bumper. The Draw Tite part # DR64FR that you referenced instead would have the entire crosstube hanging below the rear bumper. But we also have the Curt # CU74FR which gives you that OEM look where it hangs just below the bumper. I attached a picture for you to check out as well.

This hitch only has a maximum gross trailer weight of 5,000 lbs. Unfortunately, the # DR64FR will not fit the Rubicon model. From what I have found, your only real option is going to be the factory hitch which fits your Jeep and has the capacity you're looking for.

If you don't want to drill through the bumper cover you can actually remove the bumper and install the hitch then re-install without drilling.
