I've used Curt products before and this one did not disappoint. The packaging however was not up to the task. The box was open and I immediately started inspecting for damages and missing parts, thankfully the packer from etrailer completely wrapped the loose parts in reinforced tape and everything was there.

All set up, ready to roll. etrailer got me everything I needed hitch to brake control. Thank you your customer service was great!



by:

good product, easy to figure out, many options, easy to install



by:

And again- another order delivered accurately and precisely as specified- thank you so much!



by:

The hitch that we ordered was shipped the day of our order and came very quickly. The installation process was simple and worked very well on our bus. This gives us the capability to tow a small trailer to carry our luggage for the youth conferences that our teens attend throughout the year.



by:

Got it, looks like everything is there, the box didn't hold up to well to the ups shipping, typical, a smaller box packed with foam and bubble wrap may work better

I received the hitch on time and installed it with no problems at all.

Thanks!

Our hitch has worked great! We pull our Jeep Wrangler behind or class A gas motorhome without any issues.

Good hitch easy install just drill some holes and bolt it on.



by:

Well built product. Easy install, took about 1 hour mostly for drilling holes. Be sure you have at least 2 brill bits for each size required.

Received quickly and was just what I needed to solve my storage needs. Looking forward to putting it on my 5th wheel in the coming weeks.

Worked great for the application needed.



by:

Ordered this to retro fit a Class III hitch on a '63 Willys truck. So far it works perfectly. Was able to attach it directly to the frame and not lose any functionality. Also ordered C45791 Hitch extender and won't need it with this setup. All parts were included and the install instructions were clean. eTrailer also did a great job of assisting with the order to ensure that it got to me as quickly was possible.



by:

I actually ordered the wrong hitch; however, gave to a friend that needed one. He likes it. I ordered the same hitch but the 71 or 72 inch span. Had to customize the mounting to the fifth wheel camper as the camper had electric stabilizers installed. Anyway, works well, tow an 18ft deep V boat behind camper.



by:

Had it welded to the back of my pull trailer to hold a wire rack. Holds my camping chairs and dog enclosures, works great



by:

Hitch worked out great. Mounted it on the back of my 5th wheel. Use it to tow a Kubota RTV or my dog trailer.



by:

Very pleased with this hitch, it fits my Thomas HDX bus with very little modification. only had to drill two additional holes in the frame. extreamly rugged and up for the job.



by:

Bought this to put on the back of my fifth wheel for bikes and the product is well made and instructions were good.



by:

Delivery was fast.The mirrors worked out great .Easy install on my 1967 Galaxie.Trans cooler was a pretty quick installation really good instructions.The trailer hitch required a bit of work but was definitely worth it ! I'm 70 years old and didn't have a difficult time with these products.Will definitely use your products again.



by:

Had looked for a hitch to fit a 36 inch plate on my converted bus/ rv. Found this one that is adjustable on etrailer.com. I ordered and received in great packaging. Very quick turn around from order to receiving. Thank-you!

We are very happy with the hitch, etc we purchased from you . Worked out well, and you folks were very helpful. Thank you!

Dena

Wish I needed more trailer parts, will use them in the future!

Very heavy duty bolt on application, just make sure you have 9/16 and 11/16 bits.
If not add another $35 to your project.
I Like it.

Purchased this for a 1977 GMC coachman 24' Motor Home. Was not able to bolt on with out a bit of metal fabrication. Great product.

  • Available RV Hitch for 2017 Coachman Mirada Class A Motorhome on Ford F-53 Chassis
    All of the RV-rated trailer hitches we offer are the 2-inch size and the highest-rated among them are the adjustable frame-mount types like Curt # C13701. This hitch offers 2-inches of drop for its receiver tube to allow for better clearance with the RV exterior. The B&W custom hitch you referenced, part # BWHDRH25122, is not a fit for your F-53-based Mirada and only adjustable universal-fit hitches like the Curt BWHDRH25122are available. The Curt hitch is rated for 5K GTW and it can be...

  • Recommended Hitch for my 2009 Blue Bird Micro Bus on a 2009 Ford E-450 Chassis
    I have a good solution but there are no custom fit trailer hitches available to match your 2009 E-450 Chassis. Instead the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701 is what I recommend. While it does not carry a Class 4 or 5 classification it is the highest rated option I have for your chassis. It offers you a 500 lb. tongue weight rating and a 5,000 lb. gross trailer weight rating with out weight distribution. With weight distribution it offers a 600 lb. TW and 6,000 lb. GTW rating.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2007 Keystone Montana 3400rl 5th Wheel Trailer
    The Draw-Tite Multi-Fit Motor Home Trailer Hitch, 47" - 71" wide # 82201 has a maximum tongue weight of 300 lbs. If you have a frame that is shorter then the Draw-Tite # 5350 is a great option with a 500 lb tongue weight. If you are unsure of the width of your trailer frame the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703 is a great option that with either bolt or weld on and is rated for 350 lbs tongue weight. If you have a frame between 18-51 inches...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2002 Newmar Mountain Aire Motorhome
    For your 2002 Newmar Mountain Aire Motorhome, the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver - 18"-51" Wide - 2" Drop - Class III - 2" # C13701 will be the closest option to the capacity you are seeking. It is rated for 5,000 lbs without a weight distribution system or 6,000 lbs utilizing one. There is not an RV rated hitch receiver compatible with the 10,000 lb capacity you are seeking, so you may need to look to a custom welder to assist you in making one if that is a requirement.

  • What RV Hitch do you Recommend for my Highland Open Range 328BHS
    For you Open Range 328BHS I really like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701. It is as you requested designed to bolt on to the frame of your camper and will allow you to use the cargo carrier or bike rack that you have. It offers a 500 lb. tongue weight rating to get your gear where you need it safely.

    I may have a solution for you but there are no custom fit front mount trailer hitches available for the 2011-2012 ford F-53 Chassis. The Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs part # C13702 or the Curt Adjustable Width 2" drop Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs part # C13701 would be the options to check out. I do not have specific data for the overhang you have past the frame on your 2012 Newmar Canyon Star but these would be the only options I have that would come close to...

    One of the frame-mounted 2-inch RV hitches we offer will be your best bet on your 2000 Alpenlite 32RK Limited 5th wheel trailer for using a hitch bike rack. All such hitches are shown on the linked page. These hitches are designed to fit a range of trailer frame sizes and you can measure your 32RK frame width to determine the best fit. Some of these hitches offer the option of either bolt-on OR weld-on installation, but others will require one or the other method, like the Ultra-Fab #...

  • Trailer Hitch to Carry Mobility Scooter on the Back of a 2014 Keystone Cougar
    Curt trailer hitch # C13701 is one option. It will fit frame widths from 18 inches to 51 inches. Frame width is measured from the outside of one frame rail to the outside of the other. This hitch is rated for 500 pounds tongue weight so it can handle the combined 400 pounds of the scooter and carrier. I recommend first checking the underside of your Keystone Cougar to determine if this hitch will fit or if any modification will need to be done in order for this or any hitch to fit. If...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 1983 Lindy II RV on a Chevrolet Frame
    I did a little research on your Lindy II RV and it was manufactured by Skyline. There are a lot of different motorhomes that were built on the cut-away van chassis, so the pictures you sent were extremely helpful. With the RV coming out that far from the rear axle, a hitch for the regular van won't work. We do however have universal-fit weld on hitches that you can have installed to allow you to pull your boat trailer. Depending on the drop you need from your frame to get under the...

    For your 2004 Newmar Dutch Star Class A motorhome you can use one of the 2-inch RV-rated trailer hitches shown on the linked page. We offer both bumper-mount and frame-mount hitches and the better option is usually the frame-mounted type like # C13701 since these can provide higher weight capacities than many RV bumpers allow. This hitch fits RV frame widths from 18- to 51-inches and it has a receiver tube with 2-inches of drop, which can help the receiver clear trim/fascia components...

  • Recommended Bike Rack to Use with the Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk
    I have a great option for you. When using the Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk Trailer-Mounted Bike Rack Carrier for A-Frame Trailers # CC-275 there are a few parameters you will need to stay within. The bike rack needs to be travel trailer rated, fit a 2" hitch and the combined weight of the bike rack and your bikes needs to be less than 100 lbs. Given these parameters I recommend the Lets Go Aero NEO2 2-Bike Rack # B01748. This 2 bike rack is the lightest weight of the racks that are rated...

  • RV Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendations to Allow Transporting 190-lb Generator
    We offer two varieties of trailer hitch receivers for use on RVs, the bolt-on 4 x 4 inch-bumper-mount type such as the Ultra-Fab 2-Inch Motor Home Trailer Hitch Receiver # UF35-946401 that you referenced, and the higher-capacity multi-fit frame-mount type like the Curt # C13701. I suggest you check your RV owner's manual for any guidance or restrictions regarding the use of bumper- or frame-mount hitches and accessories. For safety and capacity I suggest a frame-mount hitch for your application. The...

  • Receiver Hitch For 2014 Newmar Canyon Star Motorhome At Least 6,000 lb. GTW
    The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver, Class III - 2", # C13701 that you link to, has a maximum gross trailer weight rating of 5,000 lbs. However, this is increased to a maximum GTW of 6,000 lbs. when used with weight distribution system. My first suggestion is that prior to changing out current hitch, identify with Newmar if the factory installed hitch has similar rating as this may meet your needs. The two Curt Trailer Hitches, # C13702 and # C13701, are both rated the same with...

  • Is There a Trailer Hitch Option for a 1975 Chevrolet Nova
    I do have an option but there are no custom fit trailer hitch options for a 1975 Chevrolet Nova. Therefore, the only option would be a universal one which would therefore require modifications for installation. The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701 would be a good candidate for this as the width is fully adjustable and the brackets feature only two bolt holes.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatible with Utility Body on 2018 Ram Promaster 2500
    Thanks for your photo. Based on the picture and a little research we don't have any custom fit options, so I recommend going with more of a universal fit option. I recommend the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703 which will either bolt or weld to your vehicle frame. I've attached some photo measurements to help with the fit. For a stronger hitch which may be a more difficult install in your case you can use the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver...

    Thanks for the picture, and the measurements! I took a look at your bumper, and it doesn't appear that the Mount-n-Lock GennyGo Generator and Cargo Carrier for RV Bumpers # MNT54FR will be a good fit for you. This cargo carrier will fit square and rectangular RV bumpers with a maximum depth of 6", and since you mentioned that your bumper is a notch over 7", this will not work. The best option I can offer for you, is to use a hitch mounted cargo carrier like the 22-1/2x49 Curt Cargo Carrier...

That being said, we definitely have options for a hitch on the camper and bike rack rated for use on said camper.

    Most bumpers on campers/RVs are not reinforced enough to handle any towing weight. The Curt RV Bumper Hitch - 2" Item # C19101 would definitely bolt on but that kind of weight would most likely rip your bumper off. I recommend using the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver - 18"-51" Wide - 2" Drop - Class III - 2" Item # C13701 as it has a 500lbs weight capacity. If the distance between your frame is larger than 51" then the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2010 Chevrolet Express Box Truck
    Kenneth, since you probably do not need as much drop as most you'd probably best benefit from a hitch that has minimal drop like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13701 that has 2" of drop or # 15901 for a 3" drop. Both of these hitches are semi-universal so they'll fit a range of frames, both have a 2" receiver opening, and are both assembled in the USA. The main difference other than the drop, is # 15901 is a class V hitch rated at 16K, and # C13701 is a class III hitch,...

  • RV Bike Rack Hitch Recommendation
    When it comes to hauling bike racks on a travel trailer there's a couple of things you have to take into account. The hitch must be rated enough to haul the weight of the bike rack and bikes. Most camper bumpers are not rated to haul anything and can easily bend or be ripped off when weight is added. You'll need to look through your owner's manual to determine the weight capacity of your hitch. If your hitch weight capacity is not enough you can weld on the Ultra-Fab 2" Trailer Hitch...

We have Ultra-Fab hitch # UF35-946403 that fits frame widths of 47 to 77 inches or Curt hitch # 13703 that fits frame widths of 22 to 72 inches.

It is rated for 500 lbs. of Tongue Weight and 5,000 lbs. of Gross Trailer Weight. You do need to check your Workhorse Owner's manual to see what it is rated for as a maximum as well and not exceed that.
