Use this hitch immobilizer to keep your ball mount or hitch-mounted accessory from rattling and shifting in your receiver. Great for tow bars, high-low adapters, bike racks, cargo carriers, and more. Quick, simple bolt-on installation.
Features:
Specs:
Nearly every hitch setup suffers from a bit of slip. This free play between your trailer hitch receiver and your hitch-mounted accessory is completely normal, but it's also completely preventable. By adding the Quiet Hitch to your setup, you can stabilize your hitch-mounted accessory as it sits in the receiver to eliminate rattle, sway, and all that extra play.
Just slip the Quiet Hitch over your tow bar, hitch adapter, ball mount, or other accessory. When you slide the accessory into the hitch receiver, position the U-bolt around the collar on the bottom of your hitch receiver. Then place the bar on top of the accessory shank and tighten the nuts onto the U-bolt. As you tighten the Quiet Hitch, the shank of your accessory will be pulled down towards the bottom of the receiver opening, thus securing it in place within the tube.
If you are going to use the Quiet Hitch with a weight distribution system, the setup will be opposite. Position the U-bolt around the top of the hitch receiver and place the bar on the bottom of the weight distribution shank. As you tighten the nuts on the Quiet Hitch, the shank will be pulled up towards the top of the receiver to help balance the downward force that is placed on the hitch from the weight distribution system.
Benefits for a Tow Bar
Using an anti-rattle device, such as the Quiet Hitch, is recommended when flat towing a vehicle. Besides reducing wear and tear on your tires, hitch receiver, and tow bar, using an anti-rattle device can help prevent more serious problems. A small amount of free play at your hitch may not seem like much, but this sway is magnified the farther back you go. A little movement at the hitch translates to a lot of movement at the rear of your towed vehicle. By using the Quiet Hitch, you eliminate this sway at the source.
Note: If you have a towing setup that includes a drop receiver or a high-low adapter, use 2 immobilizers to make your system as secure and rattle-free as possible. Use 1 Quiet Hitch at the connection point between the adapter and your hitch, and use the other where your tow bar slides into the adapter.

It works great. The hitch used to bang and clunk all the time, shaking the vehicle. Now it is quiet, and pleasant, to tow the trailer. 570747

Didn't really fit my SUV. Etrailer did well, but I had to go to elsewhere to find the right product. 567181

So far this hitch quieter works as advertised. Easy way to keep the tow bar from rattling. 559995

I order the roadmaster quiet hitch from E-trailer and it seems to be working OK, it's taken out about half of the wobble on my hitch Accessory. I give E-trailer of 5 star for shipping it out, it only took about a week. And I give the product about 4 stars because it is built sturdy and seems to be working OK. 547093

I never made it a year with this product. After the first installation the threads on the u-bolt started to coming off. Installed the nuts, in order, hand tight then torqued, then added the second nut and torqued that one with an beam type torque wrench. I used this device to stabilize my bicycle rack, so it's not like there was a lot of stress on it. I found a similar device on an online auction site that had a thicker bolt and didn't use the jam nut set-up. This works much better than this device ever did. 559278

Lots of help and walked me through so I could get what I needed. 564969
by: Roy S.09/15/2014
I bought this little device to tame my clunking hitch, and I was amazed at how simple it was to install (1 minute once you break out the ratchet!). Better yet, it works great. Awesome and easy, can't beat that. 151043
I still use it and really like it. It is the best hitch stabilizing device I have ever seen, and at a great price.

Purchased the Swagman Traveler XCS Platform Style Rack bicycle rack mounted on a 15 ¾ “ Hidden Hitch ball mount. It allowed me to tow 2 bicycles mounted on the hitch and still tow our 15 ft. pop up camper. After a year on the road hauling the camper, I could not be happier. The Swagmen bike rack is superbly engineered and manufactured. The designers seemed to think of everything as far as usability and durability. I definitely recommend also using the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch Anti Rattle device. It provided positive clamping to eliminate tow bar movement within the hitch receiver. Also purchased the Roadmaster 8” Safety Cable Extensions which were needed to allow attachment of the safety chains which were not long enough to reach the hitch mounting once the longer ball mount was installed. Also praise to Kelsey W. at etrailer.com who assisted me by answering my questions and guiding me through the sale. All equipment arrived within the time promised and all in good shape. 504198

I have a double hitch installed on my Class C motorhome for my bike rack and my Blue Ox to tow the car. I installed 2 of these and they completely eliminated all the movement in the assembly. I also added a Quiet Hitch Pin for the top receiver that did not have a lip. It also works perfectly. Thanks for great products! 402869
After a year, my hitch parts are still tight and doing the job of eliminating all wobbles.
Ila L - 07/09/2018by: Keith09/22/2018
Worked great for getting rid of the loose fitting receiver . Works with other than Reece hitches 567795
by: Jim10/05/2018
Great product. Takes care of the hitch rattle and very easy to assemble Bought two for the tow bar and the bike rack. Love it 572033
by: Mark Smith04/03/2015
The product does what it was intended for. I have a 8 inch hitch extension,so, I bought two of them. Sure makes things solid. I would love to see this item in stainless steel. 182776
I have since removed the 8 inch hitch extension,so now I only use one, works great, I have mine in the pressing down position, the nuts are facing up, much better than facing down.
Mark S - 04/02/2016by: J. Howard07/13/2012
I have both a front and back hitch mount on my 2006 Toyota Tacoma...pulling various sized trailers a lot and had a lot of rattling from the back receiver/hitch setup...most impressive the ease of installation and lack of noise after buying a RM-061 Roadmaster Quiet Hitch clamp! Am presently building a motorcycle carrier for my front hitch and it involved having a 6" riser added and then the receiver for the ramp, so I ordered 2 more of this item! It is going to be so nice not to have to listen to all that rattling as I go down the road! This is a great and easy to install product...heavy duty and should last forever! You will notice in the picture that I mounted it upside down compared to use in the video. This prevented me from having to sit on the ground and put the nuts on and tighten them from under the clamp...either way works fine! 47845

This Quiet Hitch performs as advertised. I think it was a tad expensive, but still worth the money. One of the advantages it has over the competition, is that when you are NOT using it, it becomes basically a TWO dimensional object for storage. This is not an insignificant positive feature compared to what else is offered out there. Actually is was one of the main reasons I bought this one. 155602
While I dont use it much, I think it is great, and miss it when I dont take the time to put it on.
Kerry P - 10/11/2015by: Sigrid Wharam05/24/2015
I received the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch 2 inch. I had a bad hitch rattle and a clunking noise when I took off from a red light pulling my travel trailer. The u clamp was received with fast service and had great help from Renee in getting the right thing I needed to stop my problem. A good product and stopped all of my problems. Very satisfied. 196427
Great I LOVE it. Still does what I bought it for. Have a tight hitch.
Sigrid W - 06/07/2016 by: John09/09/2018
Well built, easy to install, great for use on most ball mounts. For my application the ball mount height imposed high tension loads during braking and stretched the "U" bolt loosening it up. 563134
by: Ed08/10/2017
Looks like it will do the trick just hope that after using awhile it won't get stretched out and break. 418660
It’s great took away that clunk noise. Would recommend to buy.

This works great in removing the play in the hitch 565102
by: Terry M.01/17/2014
This is very simple - but ingenious. This is the first thing that has worked. And I've tried most of them. 114076
After a year, Im still very happy with this product. My trailer used to drive me nuts banging around in the receiver. Now its as if the hitch and receiver are all one piece. This simple thing really does the trick.
Terry M - 01/17/2015by: Rodney S.01/21/2014
I ended up using a 7-1/2 inch Roadmaster extender along with a Roadmaster 4" Hi-Lo adapter to tow our Jeep with our motorhome. I used 3 of the quiet hitch brackets to stabilize the extensions and tow bar. We towed for the first time this weekend for about a 170 mile round trip. The Jeep tracked perfectly behind the motorhome. I had to make several hard stops due to lights changing and cars pulling into traffic unexpectedly. There was absolutely no noise or hitch bounce. They are easily installed. I highly recommend this product. 114431
by: MikeD09/02/2017
Used in conjunction with a hitch extender to mount a hitch mount bike rack. Nice setup. 428255
They work great...we needed an extender due to the spare tire mounted on the back of the jeep to mount a bike rack. Extender works great for that purpose and the anti-tattle piece works great.
MikeD - 09/04/2018by: Yorba Linda Joe02/13/2015
I just received my Roadmaster Quite Hitch and placed in on my trailer hitch. I must say, it WORKS! My bike rack no longer shakes or rattles. I which I had purchased this item years ago. Thank you. 173620
Ive had my Roadmaster Quite Hitch for a year now and use it several times a month to keep my bike rack from rattling. This item works great and is worth the cost. Thank you!
Yorba L - 02/13/2016 by: Greg06/30/2018
The product worked for the first 500 miles. The bolts stripped the threads on the u-shaped part and it was no longer effective. I would suggest better or heavier quality metal. I solved the problem by having a jam nut installed on the receiver. It works perfectly with little effort. 528644
by: Donald05/09/2018
This invention is exactly what I needed. I pull several trailers and also a camper. It takes all the clunk and rattle out of the hitch. Its the real deal! 506027
by: Aaron S.05/05/2013
Quiet Hitch did what it's called, easy to install and locked down the hitch extender I use for my bike rack. There is now zero movement in between the extender and my jeep. 79082
Quiet Hitch has been installed for a year straight and its still as tight as when it was installed. No signs of rust or corrosion and best of all there is no noise.
Aaron S - 05/07/2014by: Laird06/24/2015
Great product and even better customer service. 206907
Thank you for the follow-up. For the most part, the product does what it claimed to do. It does a great job at stabilizing the tow hitch accessory. However, it needs to be stronger. It bends and after it is tightened down, it is not always easy to take back off because of that.
Laird - 07/22/2016by: Grand Ave Broadband07/16/2016
After a long review of available products to reduce rattle on my low-tongue-weight job trailer, I settled on this unit as my only hope. I had to install it upside-down (nuts down) because the safety chain anchor rings on my Jeep Renegade block access to the lower lip on the receiver. Even so, it eliminated the greatest part of the awful rattle, bringing the problem down to a truly acceptable level. 272735
After a year, the hitch rattles slightly more than it did when I first installed it yes, the torque is still proper but still nowhere near as bad as it did before I purchased it.
Grand A - 09/30/2017 by: Walter j09/04/2018
I purchased the Quiet Hitch a year ago. I has been what I hoped it would be. I completely satisfied with this product. What I didn't expect is that it is also an anti-theft devise. It prevents causal theft by requiring someone to have a wrench to remove a hitch. And the rattles and bangs of pulling a trailer are gone. 561302
by: Jake L.08/20/2014
Works great eliminated hitch noise on our 2014 Ford Explorer. 147702
just as good as day one,still on the 2014 Explorer

Product was shipped and delivered quickly. Just as described. 575699
by: Sean C.10/06/2017
The Quiet Hitch from etrailer is the perfect solution for the noise that comes from the gap in your hitch when pulling a trailer. This product is made of thick material and is an easy install. Thanks once again to everyone at etrailer for another great product, and fast shipping. 439980
It had been a year since I purchased the quiet hitch. This products amazing to this day. I have yet to have any problems from it.
Sean C - 10/06/2018by: Kevin10/02/2018
Good product. I have a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee with factory installed hitch. I was unable to install the quiet hitch per the instructions due to the safety chain loops. I installed the quiet hitch in the opposite direction and it worked as expected. I was only pulling a small trailer so I wasn't worried about the load being transferred to the quiet hitch. 570834
by: D. Rex U.03/25/2011
Here is my setup using the items from my two orders, including the two ant-rattle devices. The pictures aren't that great of quality, since I just used my cell phone (my only camera anymore). Everything works perfectly. 10379
by: James Mc02/15/2013
I've used several other similar products. This is the best. USA made, too. I would prefer not to use anything made by Chinese child labor. ETRAILER always ships fast and has a great website that makes product comparison easy. I've been a fan of this company for a while now and it's a no-brainer to go to ETRAILER first. 66457
Still using this thing regularly, works like new, no distortion or bends like others Ive tried. Great product!
James M - 08/16/2014by: M.J.07/25/2018
Etrailer gets 5 star for fast shipping. It only took about a week or so to get it half way across the country. The product itself only gets 3 stars. It seems heavy duty, but it only took out about half the wobble. 545705
by: Stephen P.05/27/2014
I installed this jewel of a part onto my hitch, drawbar in less than five minutes, and the heavy duty bike rack lost all its wobble when the bikes are loaded. This accessory is a must for all wobbly bike racks. It snugs down the draw bar as good as if it was welded onto the hitch. I highly recommend this accessory. 132885
The product failed, Bolts stripped while towing.
Stephen P - 05/27/2015by: Andy C09/19/2015
Installation was pretty easy. The real test will come when I hook up a trailer to it. I'm sure it is a good investment. Towed a trailer once with my '87 Suburban without the quiet hitch. It was a scary experience. Every time I used my brakes I felt like a car was rear-ending me. I recommend this product. 226428
Its been one year. I wish I had more than one hitch in order to buy more quiet hitches. I love this thing!
Andy C - 09/18/2016by: David P.09/12/2014
Simple and effective. I have a bike rack which rattles and this is the perfect solution. 150888
Excellent! Still very happy with it. I use it all the time. I would still give it 5 stars and holding strong.
David P - 09/16/2015by: fred d08/05/2013
Just what I needed to tighten up my bike rack on my jeep. Good price and speedy low cost delivery. Thanks, e-trailer. 93246
Its a keeper! Dont know how I got along without this. It keeps my bike rack tight and rattle-free. Highly recommend.
fred d - 02/03/2015by: Bill C.12/02/2016
This product serves it's purpose and is a simple design. I use it when towing my travel trailer with a WD hitch. So as per instructed by the employee's notes on the product page, I installed it, hoop up, nuts down. The normal installation without WD hitch is opposite that. I just returned from a trip and it worked great. I didn't hear or feel any shifting in the hitch during the trip as I have in the past. The one thing I would recommend it to either use some lock-tite or keep a close eye on the nuts if you are using it as I am with a WD hitch. One of my keeper nuts came loose and dropped down a few threads. No issue since I caught it, but something to keep in mind. 321653
by: Greg L.05/06/2017
I haven't towed anything yet after installing this product, however I've tried to get the hitch to wiggle using both hands and plenty of body English. The hitch is as tight as if welded. It's nice to purchase a product that works as well as or better than advertised! 376882
This item stopped the loose slop rattle on day 1. Still works well after one year.
GREGORY C - 05/06/2018by: David F.06/12/2016
Recent purchase of a Pro Series Cargo Carrier 63153. Assembly of the carrier was very straight forward but when installed into the 2" receiver, there was too much play at the receiver for my liking. Jonathan at etrailer recommended the RM-061 Quiet Hitch and got it to me while away on a trip. Installation was easy and it completely eliminated all the play. Now the cargo carrier acts like it is part of the truck, not and add on, a perfect solution!! 260511
by: RM-06105/30/2015
I received my Quiet Hitch in less than one week. I have installed it in about 10 minutes or less. I have not used the motor home yet to toe my car, but it seems to have stiffened up the drop hitch and toe bar. 198879
The Quiet Hitch is working well. It holds the toe bar tight with out any wiggle. I am well satisfied with the product.
Larry S - 05/29/2016by: MG11/27/2013
Attached a cargo carrier to my 2014 Wrangler JK 2dr's Hidden Hitch part 87424 with the Tow Ready J-Pin, but it didn't quite take all of the sway and rattle out vertically. Added the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch tightened to the recommended 23 ft lbs and we are good to go - the cargo carrier feels almost welded on back there.... Excellent product, couldn't be happier with it. 108663
by: Bill Y02/10/2018
THIS SIMPLE, INEXPENSIVE DEVICE WORKS EXACTLY AS INTENDED. IT STOPS THE MOVEMENT OF THE HITCH IN THE RECEIVER WHICH PREVENTS DAMAGE/ELONGATION OF THE HITCH PIN HOLE. I WIPED OUT THE RECEIVER ON MY LAST TRUCK BUT AFTER 2 YEARS WITH THIS DEVICE, MY NEW ONE IS STILL LIKE NEW. IT ALSO HELPS A LITTLE AS AN ANTI THEFT DEVICE. 474457
by: Paul R.07/28/2016
I always had a hitch welded to the car and went with one that i installed myself from etrailer and a ball mount joint etc (all were fabulous by the way). I picked up my trailer from home depot and drove 5 feet and all this clacking started and had me worried-you have no idea. Some research online said it was the space between the ball mount and the hitch interior shaft. I researched and found sooooo many options and ultimately went with the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch. Couldn't be happier. Went on easy and not a peep. I would recommend that etrailer.com make sure this is an option or suggested product to go along with hitches when you buy-would have saved me extra shipping cost, time and aggravation. However, etrailer is fantastic and really helped me during both purchases. 277242
by: Bob M10/19/2016
I have three Quiet hitches. One on my 2016 Dodge Ram, and i have two on my 2007 that has a camper that is extended two feet beyond the receiver and i pull a 32' boat i could hear the extensions rattling with every bump. So i purchased two for my 2007 and ended all of the rattling completely. It worked so well on 2007. I purchased one for my 2016. This is a simple and great fix for a rattling receiver. 308720

Appears to be high quality 572860
by: Todd10/23/2018
Results were as advertised. Tried other products first with unsatisfactory results. This product stabilized the wobble of my older Reese bike carrier. Little pricey, but always appreciate when products produce as advertised......Recommend. 576857
