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.

Easy to install and much faster/cheaper than trying to find a shop to install. This is our second hitch purchase from trailer, would definitely recommend.

Ordering was a breeze. Delivery was quick. Installation went smoothly. Couldn’t be happier. I bought the unit for carrying bicycles so did not bother with the wiring harness.

Great so far. Recieved hitch but haven't installed it yet. But the product looks very well made and no damage from shipping.



by:

I'm writing this review after owning this product for a year. It fit like a charm, was easy to install, and has worked without a hitch (pun intended). We tow our trailer at least once a week and have never once had an issue. Great product at a very reasonable price.



by:

I was skeptical about this site and if the hitch receiver would fit. After installing it a few days ago, I can say it fits fine. I can’t wait to add my bike rack to it.

Hey neighbor! I'm happy to hear everything fit for ya. Do you have a go to place you take your bikes to?

Easy install and the instruction video had every detail!



by:

I have a 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE GLS which has dual exhaust and technically wasn't covered in the installation video or vehicle fit list. I didnt realize this till I began to install it and once I did I figured what the heck let me try. Ill say this is does fit and bolted right on once I got it in place. The only issue I ran across was the hitch hitting the driver side exhaust cover mounted on the bumper, but all I had to do was remove 2 10mm bolts to get it loose, slide the hitch in place and insert one bolt to hold it and once everything was torqued I went back got the 2 10mm bolts to thread back in. All in all its a solid hitch that one person can install if your willing to get a little dirty. I recommend it for the build quality, ease of installation, and great pricing.

This hitch is not showing that it is a confirmed fit for the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS, it is only a fit for the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. This could be the cause of the exhaust cover being in the way.



by:

Awesomely built and very accurate fit. I suggest you have a helper and if available a lift. I installed mine on the ground and by myself so it was a bit of work but very happy with design and construction!



by:

William S at etrailer helped me find what I was looking for and took ownership. I will contact him directly when I need hitches for my shop. Great company



by:

It is an etrailer product, so not much more to say. Hitch is very well built and heavy duty. The finishing looks great in the vehicle, and the round tube is a perfect fit.

Installation took 1hr:20min, and that is because I did not have one of the tools required to get the bumper pin out of the way, so had to improvise.

etrailer video was paramount for me to complete the installation. I recommend you watch the video prior to installing yours.

I am ready to tow and take our bikes for a ride. Thank you etrailer, for putting money back in my pocket!



by:

This hitch looks great. Very low profile which nothing attached. I don’t have any specialized tools and very basic vehicle mechanical skills and I was down with installation in about an hour. Got this for adding a 60x24 cargo carrier on a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport for some extra room for camping trips. Thank you etrailer for an amazing product!



by:

Needed it quick and got it quick. Great communication from start to finish.



by:
2017 Hyundai Santa Fe

First, let me say I'm very impressed with the whole delivery process. First I received automated notice of the order, typical, then I received an email with the tracking number when it shipped, somewhat typical. However, on the tracking email they supplied two "How To" video links that were specific for my personal vehicle, wow! I had a clear and concise instructional before the part even arrived! And, I didn't have to go find it on my own. Because of this great addition I had an idea of how much time, which tools and the general requirements for the task. I have to admit, it added to the excitement because my concern about what I may need to do was eliminated. In fact, I installed my unit the day it arrived.

In my personal case, the steel was slightly sprung, probably from the welding. It took a little fight and some bumping with a mallet to get things going together. Once I had a few turns on every bolt I just took my time and did about 3 turns to each in a pattern. This was to ensure the bolts were somewhat evenly pulling everything to its final position. The part is a great fit for my Santa Fe. I will definitely recommend and shop with E-Trailer in the future. If you are considering this trailer hitch, I definitely recommend it.



by:
2014 Hyundai Santa Fe

Very well made and attractively priced, no need to pay more for the name brand. Like the matte finish. Excellent communication and tracking. This is my second e trailer hitch. Good stuff!

Worked great. Was moving cross country and install this before moving. Easy and smooth install.



by:

Easy to install arrived on time excellent product and delivery!



by:
2017 Hyundai Santa Fe

Installed it by myself with the help of a few buckets to hold it up while I got bolts started. Had to pound on it a little to get it aligned properly. I just OK alignment, but could have be the vehicle as much as the hitch. I found that putting in the upper long carriage bolts first was smart. The video I watched recommended putting in the lower bolts first. Looks good and appears to by sturdy and well made.



by:

Well built. Easy installation. Directions were very complete. Only negative is that the receiver is under the bumper too far. Had to buy an extension for carrier to fit.



by:

Easy fit after two bolts are trimmed off. Installed without lifting car. Release last two exhaust support. Enough space to pass unit and catch one bolt. Raise opposite side and bolt up. Replace plastic panels on both sides with new push pins.



by:

The hitch fit perfectly. I have put about 2000 miles of using it since installation.

e trailer has nailed it as always. Shipped quickly, fit my vehicle perfectly, installation instruction video is spot-on and super helpful. I installed this by myself in about 2 hours start to finish and I’m super happy with how it turned out. Can’t speak to the longevity of the product yet but the initial experience has been great.

  • What Trailer Hitch Fits The 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe?
    Hello Victor, thanks for reaching out. We do offer a trailer hitch for the 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe, but the 13473 hitch you mentioned is only for the 2021 - 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe, so this will not work for you. The correct hitch for the 2005 Santa Fe is the following: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13505

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Tuscon Hybrid Limited
    To add a 2" hitch to your 2024 Tuscon Hybrid Limited, I recommend the Curt item # C94WR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Hyundai with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a 525 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up. I also assume it would come off pretty easily considering how new your vehicle is.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport
    The best option to add a hitch to your 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport is the etrailer item # e98841 you were looking at. This class III 2" hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Santa Fe with included hardware. It has more then enough capacity to meet your vehicle's towing abilities. The etrailer item # e98841 is the best option because not only does it give you the best value for your dollar but it also has a flat matte finish. This flat finish blends in better beneath your Santa Fe's trim...

This receiver is custom fit to your Sportage with no modifications needed as seen in our installation video that I have linked below. The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98841 that you found fits certain model years of the Hyundai Santa Fe Sport and some Kia Sorento's, but will not fit your Sportage.

    I have a great hitch solution for you. However, the etrailer Hitch - 2" # e98841 does not fit your 2017 Jeep Renegade. With that being said, a great hitch that does fit is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13269.

  • Solution for Hitch Mounted 3-Bike Rack on 2018 Mazda 6 Sport
    The only option for a hitch on your 2018 Mazda 6 is a Class I hitch # C11356. This has a 1-1/4" receiver so a bike rack for a 2" hitch would not be an option. Also, a Class I hitch is going to be limited to 2 bikes, even if you use a 3-bike rack like the # S63365. Instead, you can use a trunk bike rack like the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633. This is confirmed to fit your Mazda 6 Sport and has a capacity of 35 lbs per bike or 90 lbs total when carrying 3 bikes.

  • Correct Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2018-2019 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport or XL
    From my understanding the Hyundai Santa Fe XL model wasn't released until 2018 for the 2019 model year and it replaced the Sport for the US. So if it's a 2018 Santa Fe it would be called the Sport and I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98841 but if it's a 2019 Santa Fe XL I recommend the Curt # C13153. If you live in Canada then I believe the Santa Fe Sport is the same as the Santa Fe XL so you'll want to use the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98841 since it's for the...

I called U-Haul and they said that the coupler height of the 4x8 cargo trailer is around 16" from the ground to the bottom of the coupler while level therefore you will need to use the Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches part # C45311 with the 2" Hitch Ball part # A-90.

    I have a way for you to safely transport your dual sport bike on your vehicle. I went ahead and looked up the specs for your 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe, and it has a maximum gross towing weight capacity of 2,800 pounds. If this is the case, the maximum tongue weight capacity of your vehicle is 280 pounds. With this tongue weight capacity, you cannot safely mount via a hitch carrier that requires tongue weight. This is because no matter what hitch you use, your sport bike exceeds that 280 tongue...

I recommend the Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock and Coupler Lock Set # 3794DAT. This set will give you locking pins for both 1/2" and 5/8" receiver pins.
