This fully welded, corrosion-resistant vehicle trailer hitch receiver is perfect for your light-duty towing needs. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. Drawbar sold separately.
Features:
Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.
At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.

Great priceEasy to install
Great product, great price, great delivery. Is there anything else???
Fit great, was a little tough on old hands, young hands work better. The feeder wires for the bolts were boredline on length. Very pleased.
hitch has a couple good scratches recd duting shipping (i assume). the pin holes are not 'true' so i cant get the pin through the receiver and the ball mount. i assume that's a mfg issue. now that i've gone through all the work to get it installed; i'm not going to bother trying to return it. i'll find a smaller diamter pin or make one of the holes larger.
shipping was prompt and the tracker was helpful.
Received my hitch for a 2007 Mustang GT, the order was received in a timely manner, fit appropriately, and packaged properly. Customer service very helpful.Will order from etrailer again for my trailer needs.
The product was good and instructions were easy to follow. I did have an issue with disconnecting the muffler hangers (above the mufflers) on my 2007 Mustang GT. I was able to get the bolts in regardless. It would have been much easier to install if I had a lift and could have taken the muffler and short tailpipe off. I was able to install in about three hours.
Ordered this hitch on Wednesday and it was delivered to my front porch Friday morning - and I didn't choose special delivery!
Hitch was little too challenging for me to install, but etrailer hooked me up with a local company that did the installation. Etrailer's price was $20 less thant the local dealer would have charged for the hitch.
Overall very good experience.
Great Product Poor InstructionI'm sure this is a great hitch, like any other trailer hitch product (I've used/installed 3 in the past). However, I believe the instructions are poorly written. I had to remove the muffler completely and remove three muffler brackets. The bolt leaders are easy to install if you install them backward, THEN attach the bolt and washer. I found them "impossible" to install as instructed. Hardest part was reinstalling the muffler with the hitch in place. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this product and were planning a trip as soon as the hitch-mounted bike rack arrives.
Great looking product - Nice fit and finish. Install was a challenge on my 2007 Mustang GT. Major problem on rear muffler mount on the passenger side (drivers side was no problem). Had to drop the muffler to get the rear muffler hanger bracket installed after the hitch was in place. It might have been possible to install the rear bracket at the same time as the hitch was installed, but I was beyond that point when the support was to be installed per the instructions.
I will have to say that you thought of everything when designing this. It fit in great. The only issue I had was that I removed the muffler rather than bending the existing bracket or boaring out a hole. Ended up taking closer to three hours to install because of this. Very difficult to finagle the muffler back on once the reciever was in place. This is just the nature of the space available in the rear of a Mustang. My vehicle is a 2006 GT with no California package. Also, the wire leads used to feed the bolts into the tube worked better than I would have ever imagined. Delivery was within a couple of days. Asked a couple of questions on line from etrailer before ordering and got excellent prompt feedback from them.
I would have given this top rating but the 1-1/4 inch reciever was so snug that I had to file the inside out a bit in order to mount the bike rack.
I installed the hitch myself and found that reading the reviews and checking out the pictures on the website were very helpful if not completely necessary. As in the other reviews, I would say that the instructions are not great. One other suggestion would be to provide a bolt to fit for the muffler hanger instead of asking to bend the hanger or expand the hole. Another suggestion would be to use jack stands to hold the hitch in place for installation. Doing that worked out great for me. The product seems solid and I'm looking forward to using it to haul my bike around!
More than the hour stated for in installation but over all a very good experience, YES, I did it myself !
Heavy construction with perfect fit. I like the attention to details, no surprises. And definitely the right price!
Everything arrived as promised. Had a local shop install the hitch, which went on "without a hitch" (couldn't help the pun). Using this for my high-end bike rack and thus far it is performing as I expected.
Product is well made. It aligned perfectly with the holes in my Mustang GT. You will need assistance to install, one to hold hitch while other person pulls the wires and bolts thru frame and hitch.
Also shipping was quick.

Still working well not a single problem.
Hitch installed well. Took Approx. 2 hours on my garage floor. What they don't tell you is you will need to open the frame rail holes larger to accommodate the hardware. Original factory holes are way to small. A drill and a metal hole saw got it done. From there the hardware goes in smoothly. I could only lower the right side muffler so it was a bit awkward but the hitch isn't even noticeable on the car. Fit and finish are very nice. I installed it with no assistance.
This is the 4th hitch I have gotten from etrailer and all have been excellent with easy installs. Watch the video's, adapt what you can and good luck. The pic has the hitch cover installed, like I said you can't even see it.
Shipped to me very quickly, securely boxed. It's a Drwa-Tite, so I'm sure it's top quality. I haven't installed it yet but don't foresee any problems, and there is a video produced by etrailer on [online] for my car- 2008 Mustang. Customer service with some questions I had before placing the order was great-- responding to me quickly on a weekend night. Thank you.

Ive gotten a lot of use out of this! Ive towed several motorcycles, including my Harley, a couple thousand miles behind my Mustang, using a lightweight Kendon trailer. Easy install, perfect fit.
It fit perfect, did NOT have to do anything extra to make it fit, very happy and have bought from them before and sure I will again, very happy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent assistance in finding the right hitch for our application. Mike answered all our questions. Quick shipping. Fantastic customer servicr
I got this hitch for a bike rack and its excellent. Installation was a breeze, maybe 30 or 45 minutes. Although I do have access to a lift, it's still not bad. I didn't take the mufflers off, just took the bolt holding the rear hanger out to drop it slightly. Hardly noticable when nothing is on it too. Anyway, solid hitch.
I purchased a hitch for a 2007 Mustang. My car is a GT convertible with a 4.6 liter V8 and dual exhaust. The hitch arrived sooner than promised, five stars for that. Instructions are clear and simple. I did watch an installation video prior to purchase so I had an idea of what I was looking g at. The installation was easier than I expected. The instructions indicated that I would have to drop the exhaust on both sides but to my surprise no removal was required on the drivers side. My only request would be that a second replacement exhaust hanger bolt be provided for the passengers side due to the fact that I used the one provided to replace the bolt that installs in to the bottom bracket hole on the rear most hanger and I would like a longer than original length bolt to reinstall into the inboard hole of the same bracket. The reason for this request is that with the hanger reinstalled it is stacked on the hitch frame and the OEM bolt isn't penetrating the nut in the frame by very many threads. I did have to open up the holes in the bottom of the car frame to allow the bolt heads and spacers to pass through on their way to the mounting holes. No modification was required to the hitch whatsoever.
I will be moving to a new home over the next several months and will use the car to tow a small enclosed trailer each trip we make.
I would recommend this company,'s product in a minute and their customer service is A plus, they even answer on Sunday afternoons.
This was a little confusing as to the muffler. I never got instructions with the hitch and on You Tube I only saw installation on a GT, not the 6 cylinder I have. This item does fit perfect though.

Thanks for the feedback Tim. This hitch is confirmed as a fit for the 2005 - 2009 Ford Mustang. The installation instructions are linked to this page. Please let us know if you have any additional questions about the install, we would be happy to help.
The hitch and wiring is great quality. The problem was in the lack of instruction in English for the hitch and no instructions for the wiring. There was a few wiring connectors missing also. I have installed 5 of these hitches so the mounting was not an issue for me. Might be for the first timer. For the wiring, I had to go on line to verify the wiring colors. A bit inconvenient for sure. I have conversed with a representative from the company about these issues.
The trailer hitch was exactly what I needed for my 2006 mustang gt convertible. It was hard to find a trailer hitch for my car,until finally I found this one. So very happy and satisfied with the fitment.put it on myself,it took a few hours.good product, I recommend this trailer hitch for all convertible mustangs.
Fortunately for me I have aftermarket mufflers which are smaller than stock. That made installation much easier. I only used about 20 foul words during install. That’s about 30 less than average. I only had to unbolt the passenger side muffler brackets and I cut off the lower part of the rear muffler bracket so I simply bolted the hitch on and then bolted on the bracket and done. I never used the fishing wire trick, but it worked great and I had no trouble getting the carriage bolts in the holes. This is my 3rd drawtite hitch for various cars and I am very pleased with the product.
The Draw-Tite Sportframe Receiver Hitch that I ordered arrived in a timely manner, as promised. It fit on my Mustang, perfectly. I was amazed out how well it fit, especially after a professional trailer hitch installer, in my home town, said it couldn't be done. I would recommend the folks, and their products, at etrailer.com to anyone who needs the correct fitting towing package for their particular vehicle. They were polite and courteous, and know their customers needs.
