Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop - 15901

Average Customer Rating:  4.8 out of 5 stars   (89 Customer Reviews)


by:

Added (welded) to our diesel pusher Motorhome and have no issues and really no worries while towing whatever we feel we need while camping.



by:

This hitch was exactly what was needed for my landscaping customer's small dump body truck. It replaced the original custom hitch with only minor modifications to accommodate the cargo body. I have done considerable work for this customer over many years. No issues reported with this job. All good!! Thanks to Curt and etrailer for great products and stellar service. —



by:

The hitch eeceiver I bought is perfect for my RV. What I was even more impressed with was the updates etrailer.com sent as my order processed and shipped. Each step of the way I was updated by employees who accompanied the update with their photos. Very personalized experience. Thank you etrailers.com!

Curt Class V receiver received complete and as advertised. Now, to get it installed by welder/ installer on '03 Newmar Dutch Star.



by:

Worked great for my custom application. Placed behind my custom bumper as a hidden hitch.



by:

Well made hitch, very adjustable, and easy to install. No problems towing my 30' cabin cruiser with my new-to-me Semi-tractor. Exactly what I was looking for.



by:

Package arrived on time-there was a good deal of dust in the package but that doesn’t hurt anything-the hitch and pieces are heavy duty.



by:

Excellent product, just what I needed for a modified flatbed installation

Solid and sturdy

It’s beefy and solid. The mounting bracket square holes had to be cut in a smidge and he added two more support bars.. but all in all. My welder said it would tow 11-12 k. Not the 16k I was told. But hey. I’m okay with that. There was a shipping issue which forced me to reschedule a few things, that is the only reason I gave 4 stars. Otherwise I am supper happy with how it turned out.



by:

It is very well built and the powder coating is very tough, took a good grinding to get it off for the welds. Good price as well. I used it for my 2006 Bounder 35E, not because it was a high rate hitch, as I did not need one, but this was the only one that would lower the hitch to a more normal height from the ground. The old hitch was so high a 10" deep was not enough to use a trailer parallel to the ground. Now I can hook up a lot easier and not worry about scraping. Looks good too.



by:

Great quality product from Curt . Can be easy installation depending on the application.. mine more difficult because of aluminum alloy frame, so will have to do some reinforcing.



by:

attached this hitch to my 1984 American General 5 ton military truck. Had to do some modification to air lines and drill a few holes but it is perfect for pulling civilian trailers with the M 813.



by:

I put this on my 03 Freightliner Columbia. It does everything I want it to. It is bolted and welded.
I like it so much that a bought another one and put it on my old school bus. That one is just bolted on.



by:

Perfect fit on my 2009 blue bird



by:

Very happy with this hitch. The size of the end plates matched the frame on our old truck and with the class V weight rating, our old truck can do a few other things around the farm now. Thank you.

  • Front Mount Hitch Receiver Fitment on a 2021 Thor Chateau
    Your best bet for a front mount hitch receiver on your 2021 Thor Chateau motorhome is a universal hitch like the Curt Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch # 15901. Since there aren't any custom fit options either you or the shop you have doing the installation will need to look at the design of this hitch and the instructions to determine what kind of modifications you might need to make to your motorhome prior to purchasing.

  • Recommended 10,000 lbs Capacity Hitch for a Motorhome
    I have a universal hitch that will fit your Gulf Stream and provide you with the needed 10,000 lbs towing capacity but it must be welded on. It is the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch item # 15901. None of the bolt on hitches have a capacity higher than 5,000 lbs. I have linked the instructions below so you can take a look at the steps and understand the process.

  • Higher Capacity Hitch that Can Fit 42 inch Vehicle Frame
    For a higher capacity multi fit hitch that could be used on a 42 inch wide vehicle frame we have the Curt hitch part # 15901 which would work great. This hitch has a towing capacity of 15,000 lbs and can fit frames that are between 18 inch and 44 inch so it would work great for you.

  • Trailer Hitch for 2011 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 With 30-3/8 Inch Frame Width
    I have a solution for you but there are no custom fit hitches for the narrow 30 3/8 inch frame 2011 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 3500 Dually models. They weren't as widely produced and some have a service body or step bumper which obstructs where a hitch would be mounted. If your Sprinter has a step bumper you will need to remove it. Once that's done, you'd want to measure the drop needed. The drop is the vertical measurement from the underside of the vehicle frame member and the lowest point...

  • Availability of a Trailer Hitch for a 1956 Chevrolet 210 Townsman Station Wagon
    None of our hitch suppliers offers a bolt-on custom-fit trailer hitch receiver of any size for your (awesome!) 1956 Chevy 210 Townsman Station Wagon. Your one option is a universal-fit RV-type hitch, such as the Curt # 13703. Please keep in mind that you will be on your own in terms of determining proper fit. Also, since this will be an untested application your actual tongue weight and towing capacities will be unknown. The vehicle itself may have different capacities than the hitch....

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Minnie Winnie Motorhome on 2006 Ford E-450 Chassis
    For your application we're going to need to look at a universal trailer hitch as there aren't any custom fit options for a 2006 Ford E-450 Minnie Winnie motorhome. Custom hitches are pretty cut and dry as to what they fit but for a universal hitch you'll need to do a little checking on your end to make sure it will fit correctly. For example, the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch # 15901 fits vehicle frames from 18" up to about 44" and the receiver will sit 3" below the mounting...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2003 GMC Savana 3500 Cutaway
    The hitch with the 7 inch drop you are talking about is the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver - Weld On - Class V - 2" # 41990-07. The reason this has a 7" drop is because it is a universal weld on hitch designed for heavy-duty and commercial vehicles. The brackets also have a 16" drop option, it is going to depend on the vehicle and what you need since it is a universal design. The only requirement for this hitch is the frame, it fits frames up to 44". So in a...

    No but you can use a universal hitch as there are no custom fits. For a Class V hitch that you can bolt or weld onto your frame that is 42 inches from outside to outside you can use one from Draw-Tite: - Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-07 Or for a weld-on only you can use the Class V Universal Weld-on Receiver Hitch and Brackets with 3" Drop # 15901.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For An Isuzu Box Truck With a 33.5 Wide Frame
    We do have options for a hitch for your Isuzu box truck with a 33.5" frame. I recommend the Curt Class 5 Universal Weld-on Hitch # C99CR. This hitch can be adjusted to fit frames between 18" and 44" wide. The side flanges are 18" tall, and can be fabricated to fit a wide variety of vehicles. This is technically a class 5 hitch rated for 16,000 lbs. We do not offer any class 4 bolt on options as this time.

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch for 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 With 30-3/8 Inch Frame Width
    There are two primary reasons why a hitch isn't available for the narrow framed Sprinter 3500 models. First, the vehicles aren't super-common, the wider framed vehicle is much more prevalent. Secondly, most of these vehicles are used as commercial vehicles that have been equipped by aftermarket upfitter companies that commonly add utility or service bodies or steps such as your vehicle is equipped with. It'd be difficult for the hitch manufacturers to develop a hitch because the way the...

Curt offers a Class IV Receiver Hitch, # C14082, that with bolt directly to your vehicle's frame with no welding required.

    For your 1992 Toyota Hilux, we did have a neighbor that installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13086 on his Toyota Hilux model. I went ahead and attached a picture of the fitment of the hitch on his truck. However, I called Curt and my contact confirmed that there is no way of telling if that hitch will fit for sure on your 1992 Toyota Hilux. Also, as you can see in the attached picture, the hitch does not have the cleanest installation. With that being said, I recommend a universal...

  • Can A Custom-Fit Front-Mounted Trailer Hitch Be Modified To Be Less Noticeable
    Hi Patrick, With custom-fit trailer hitches like the Draw-Tite # 65064 you were looking at there really isn't any modifications that you can make to the hitch to have it sit further in. If you went with a weld-on hitch you could play around with it a bit more to get it sitting where you want. You will have to do a bit of measuring at first to figure out the correct drop needed though. We offer the following drop lengths: Draw-Tite 7" Drop # 41990-07 16" Drop # 41990-16 Curt 3" Drop...

  • Custom Hidden Trailer Hitch Options and Parts that May be Needed for a 1985 Chevy Stepside Pickup
    There is no custom fit trailer hitch available at this time that will install on the 1985 Chevy Stepside pickup and be hidden behind the License plate. I have seen this done in the past but it is a custom fabrication project that requires using a qualified weldor to fabricate a hitch with the proper capacity, and fit for your particular situation. You will also need to come up with a license plate bracket that will allow you to install the ball mount and hook up safety chains to safety...

    We have a couple options for a heavy-duty Class V hitch, and while there is not a custom-fit option for your Thor Challenger motorhome on a Ford F-53 chassis, you can still add a weld-on hitch. From my research, the rear frame on the F-53 chassis is 34 inches from outside to outside, but you'll need to measure the distance you need from the bottom of the frame to the top of the receiver. Once you know that, you can choose from any of the following Class V hitches: - 3" Drop From Frame:...

    For a Crusader Shuttle Bus, there is not a custom-fitted hitch, so a universal hitch will be the way to go. A good weld-on hitch is the Class V Curt, part # 15901. This has a 15,000-lb gross towing weight capacity and a 1500-lb gross tongue weight. It can fit frames between 18" and 43.88". Your shuttle bus does seem to have a large bumper, so you may want to look into a hitch with a longer receiver. Another Curt option is the RV hitch, part # 13703. This can be a bolt-on or weld-on hitch,...

  • Is there a Class IV or V Hitch Available for a 1989 International S1600
    We have 2 hitches that might work depending on the specific measurements of your 1989 International. Curt hitches 15901 and 15902 are both weld-on hitches that will fit frames from 18 inches wide to 44 inches wide. The 15901 has a 5 inch drop. The 15902 has a 13-1/2 inch drop. I am not certain if the hitch itself, being 44 inches wide, will interfere with anything else under the vehicle (seeing as it is 10 inches wider than your frame rails). So you will need to check and see if clearance...

    The side mounting plates on the Buyers Products Hitch Plate # 3371809060A are spaced apart by 34-1/4 inches, inside to inside. This is likely a bit too large for the 33 inch wide frame on your vehicle. Your best option may simply be with a weld-on hitch like the Curt Class V # 15901, which will work on frames that are between 18 and 44 inches wide.
