Rugged, Matte Black Finish

The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Box came a little lopsided and dinged up, but the product was wrapped really well so the powder coat finish was in perfect condition. Its solid and looks great on my Sienna!



by:

Nice, easy installation. The cutout for the vanity shield was shown too large, but I noticed that from an earlier comment and adjusted before chopping. 2-person job, for sure!

Have not open it yet. But wow you guys are fast. This is the second time I order from you guys and have been very satisfied with the fast service and quality support. Keep up the excellent service

Thank to Sherry Great product loved the service by SHERRY she was great she helped me a lot in short tearm time can't complain loved it I think the company she working for should be proud of her exelence p.s. I think she needs a raise. It was good and ease with her help. THANK YOU DEAR



by:

Instructions showed that part of the cover had to be cut out to make clearance, not the case, no cutting was needed. It bolted right to the frame. Instructions for Valley hitch for the same vehicle look correct. Ball was not packed securely in box when it was shipped, lucky it wasn't lost. Spent a lot of time getting the bolt in the rust nuts, used an impact on low power. Use a 2x4 wedged between frame and tail pipe to push the exhaust over instead disconnecting mount.

Toyota Sienna

Super Service and great product This is not the first time I've had the pleasure of dealing with etrailer. Again, I've purchased a 2" hitch receiver (previously for an RV, this time for a Sienna). I also picked up T-One wire harness for 4-pole lights (1 for the Sienna, another for a Jeep). Packaging is designed to withstand the abuse of UPS kicking the things off the truck. I'm not kidding here. Also, somebody clearly tried to reach in through the "handhold' in the carton to purloin one of the wire harnesses. Hahahaha, etrailer had you figured out. It was strapped to the hitch receiver bar, most ingeniously. I hope the dude (or dudette) broke a fingernail in the process (grin). Naturallly, the products go on like applying butter to toast when you buy the correct product for your vehicle. If in doubt, just call etrailer. If they are not perfectly 100% sure, they call the factory! Really cool when you have product shipped to a different state and it's exactly correct when you get there. Well, I once had a shipment direct from the factory that did not have the mounting hardware (just a little oops from the factory, not etrailer's fault). A call to etrailer, who called the factory, and the next day the hardware showed up. Now THAT's great service, and is one of the reasons I only deal with etrailer for stuff like this. I don't bother with local suppliers, because they can't get it any cheaper or faster than etrailer, and when something goes wrong, etrailer is *days* faster in making it whole again. Thanks etrailer!

All items ordered arrived on Tuesday (4 days from order date) and i couldn't be happier! Great Service and a reliable Co. Thanks Guys.

Took a little time but instructions on the dvd lesson was great. HAVE A FROEND HELP YOU HOLD UNITE IN PLACE.



by:

I was pleased with the delivery time and the product. All the parts were there and the instructions to install them. Thanks Bob



by:

Ordered a hitch for our van and so surprised it got delivered so soon. We'll still have to install but it looks very good!



by:

Received product much sooner than expected, thank you. Instructional video was invaluable for a novice like me. Two of us followed video and had it installed in no time. Have since recommended both the website and the videos to a friend wishing to perform a similar install.



by:

Installed myself. All looks great. Now i'm putting the bike rack together.

Toyota Sienna

Great Hitch for the Sienna. It only took me 30 minutes to install it. It fits great the hitch is quite sturdy.



by:

I have not used the product yet but have just installed it and was very pleased at the relative ease of the install. The videos on the website were very helpful and I only needed help at the onset with positioning which my 7 year old daughter was more than capable of handling. I was also impressed with the speed and communication of delivery, I did not have to wonder when I knew. When you consider that the dealership quoted me over $600 to do this job, there is no question about who I would use and recommend.



by:

Fantastic item; video instructions worked perfectly. I installed this thing by myself without the benefit of any hydraulic lift.



by:

I had the hitch and wiring done in about two hours including cleanup and putting all the tools away.



by:

Bike rack was very easy to install. Excellent product. Everything on our van is power. Rack is very easy to move out of the wall to access trunk. Highly recommend this product.



by:

Holes do NOT line up! Just like other reviews on the web, I found that the holes did not line up. Tried installing it, removed it, bent ends, reinstalled, and then with a combination of jacks, masonry chisels, and prybars, got it installed. Took 3.5 hours, and a lot of sweat.Once installed, looks nice, but not sure if it was worth the struggles. Supposedly other brands fit correctly without the troubles.

  • Easiest to Install Trailer Hitch for 2020 Toyota Sienna
    The easiest to install trailer hitch for your 2020 Toyota Sienna is the etrailer part # e98837 which has the shortest install time listed. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. Then for trailer wiring the easiest solution is the Tekonsha part # 118648 which plugs right in behind the taillights and comes with a very reliable converter box.

  • Determining If 2018 Toyota Sienna XLE has Factory Tow Package and Recommended Trailer Hitch
    Based on my research it looks like the factory towing package for the 2018 Toyota Sienna consists of an engine oil cooler along with a heavy-duty radiator and fan. The factory towing package is standard for the XLE model like what you have. With the tow package the Sienna XLE has a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds. In order to tow a trailer you will first need a trailer hitch. For this I recommend the etrailer.com Class III Hitch # e98837. This custom hitch is confirmed to fit your vehicle...

  • Recommended 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2009 Toyota Sienna For Best Ground Clearance
    For your 2009 Toyota Sienna, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13105 you referenced. From the lowest point of the hitch receiver you will have about 8-1/2 inches of ground clearance. The inside top of the receiver itself will be at 11-1/2 inches. This is identical to the etrailer option # e98837 and about 1 inch higher than the Draw-Tite # 75237 option. The SE and CE are trim models and don't impact the fit of the hitch receiver.

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring Harness for a 2006 Toyota Sienna
    Hey Nate. All the connectors are going to seal up about the same and have identical issues. What you need to do is use Dielectric Grease item # 11755. It covers your contact points and keeps moisture away. It also helps with conduction. To add a hitch to your 2006 Toyota Sienna, I recommend our etrailer item # e98837. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Toyota with included hardware. The etrailer Hitch item # e98837 is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It is made in the USA...

  • Is the etrailer Bike Rack Compatible with a Hanging Bike Rack
    Hey Louis, thanks for stopping by! Since the Curt # C13105 and the etrailer # e98837 are basically the same hitch, it also is not going to be compatible with a hanging bike rack. Since this appears to be a trend with these bike racks, then I'd suggest using a platform rack like the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR which does not suspend the bikes. This bike rack can accommodate up to two bikes weighing up to 80 lbs each, can work with up to a 5"...

  • Recommended Hitch w/ Best Ground Clearance for a 2019 Toyota Sienna
    Hey Daniel thanks for all the questions! One of them is going to be pretty easy but also disappointing, every hitch for your 2019 Toyota Sienna is going to require the panel to be removed, trimmed, then reinstalled. This is actually not as hard to do and time consuming as it may seem. As far as the hitch with the best ground clearance there are four for your 2019 Sienna and they're all going to be the same. When we test fit the Draw-Tite Hitch item # 76112, Curt Hitch item # C13343, etrailer...

  • Comparing Trailer Hitch e98837 And e98853 For A 2018 Toyota Sienna L
    You are correct that both the # e98853 and the # e98837 will both fit your 2018 Toyota Sienna L. There are a few noteworthy differences. One difference is that with the # e98853 the crosstube will be concealed behind the bumper. The crosstube on the # e98837 will be visible under the bumper once installed. The # e98853 has a higher tongue weight rating at 525 lbs (350 for the # e98837). The # e98853 cannot be used with a weight distribution hitch, whereas the # e98837 is rated for use...

  • Comparison of Available Class III Hitches for 2020 Toyota Sienna
    The main differentiation between the available Class III hitches is how they'll appear once installed. The etrailer brand # e98837 and the Draw-Tite # 75237 will have the entire hitch visible under the rear bumper. In contrast, the Draw-Tite # 76112 and the etrailer brand # e98853 will have the crossbar nicely tucked behind the rear bumper, with only the receiver opening and safety chain loops being visible. The concealed type hitch also allows about 2 more inches of ground clearance, which...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2014 Toyota Sienna LE And Do I Need A WDH?
    Hello Alex, thanks for reaching out. It is absolutely possible to put a trailer hitch on your 2014 Toyota Sienna LE. I actually used to have a 2013 Sienna XLE with a hitch on it and it worked out great. What I recommend for your is the etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e98837. I prefer this hitch over others because the matte black coating is more durable and gives it a cleaner, more factory look. This hitch is also rated for use with a weight distribution hitch or WDH. The hitch will come with...

  • Which Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver Provides Most Ground Clearance for 2007 Toyota Sienna LE
    If you're looking for a class III trailer hitch for your 2007 Toyota Sienna, either the etrailer # e98837 is going to offer the most ground clearance. This is especially important when considering hitch mounted accessories like bike racks, cargo carriers or ball mounts. Measuring from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver tube opening, # e98837 will offer approximately 11-1/2". On the other hand, the Curt # C13105 offers 10-1/4" and the Draw-Tite # 75237 only offers about 9-1/2".

  • How To Prevent Hitch Scraping on Pavement with 2019 Toyota Sienna
    The 2019 Toyota Sienna is a low ground clearance vehicle so there isn't much that can be done about a hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98837 scraping or bottoming out. That said, you can protect the hitch with an option like the Roadmaster Rollaway Trailer Hitch Protector part # RM-050 and that's what I recommend. I don't recommend lifting the vehicle to give more ground clearance as this will affect the ride quality and suspension geometry which can lead to other...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2008 Toyota Sienna
    Hey Mark, the best hitch for your 2008 Toyota Sienna LE is the etrailer item # e98837. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your van with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity and a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight. These capacities can be increased to 5,000 lbs and 500 lbs when used with a weight distribution system. The reason the etrailer item # e98837 is the best hitch is because of the way it mounts.

The Toyota Sienna's used different taillight assemblies for the LE's than they did on the SE's so you won't be able to use the Tekonsha Item # 118498 on the LE model.

  • How to Tell is etrailer Hitch for 2006 Toyota Sienna Came with M10 or M12 Bolts
    I'd be happy to help you out! The 10.9 number you're seeing on the head of the bolt has to do with the strength of the bolt not necessarily the size of the bolt. I'm not seeing a part number for the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e98837 so I recommend measuring the threads to determine what size you have. An M10 bolt will have threads measuring 10 mm in diameter while an M12 bolt will have threads measuring 12 mm in diameter. If yours ends up being 10 mm let me know so I can have our customer...

  • 2017 Toyota Sienna - What Hitch Can Be Used With Weight Distribution And Why?
    Hey good question, Scott. The etrailer Class 3 Round Tube Hitch # e98837 is compatible with a weight distribution (WD) system because the receiver is welded directly to the crosstube. This allows the hitch to withstand the additional stress added by a WD hitch. The only downside of this design is the crosstube will be visible underneath the bumper of your Sienna. The etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e98853 is designed so the crosstube is hidden behind the bumper. The receiver is attached beneath...
