Perfect fit, very durable, solid heavy duty hitch.
I have had the hitch installed for over a year now and hitch has performed exactly like it should. No problems

Product has held up well, Very pleased with the durability and performance.



by:

I was very pleased with the ordering process, the very quick delivery date, and the installation process. Although I did have to relocate my stabilizer jacks about 4 inches, this was no real issue. The hitch fit like a glove and I was able to install it myself. It took me a little longer than most others because I'm 68 yrs old and also have Parkinson's Disease. So If I can install it, I figure most anyone can. I've included a picture.

Thanks etrailer for a great experience.

Its been a year since I installed this hitch. Ive pulled my boat several times with no issues. Great hitch and also - NO RUST.



by:

I installed your hitch to my32 foot 2023 Puma without a hitch. The instal went smoothly. In about 3 hours. The only modifications were the length of the bolts. I had to install onto a 2x4 inch tubing. Then welding it to the rv. Thank you for all your help.



by:

When I got the hitch the shipping company had damaged the packaging and lost ona of the parts. I got in touch with etrailer and they had a new part to me in just a few days. I love the hitch and couldn’t ask for better service.

When hitch arrived the parts bag was open and a few bolts, nuts,etc were missing. Called etrailer and a new parts bag was shipped quickly. Fairly easy install on our 5th wheel. In pictures we haven't put the underside cover back up yet.

Awesome I pull a trailer with a side by side and had no problems at all.



by:

It is a perfect use for a mountain bikes dirt bikes on the back of travel trailers. Be advised that the hitch will sit lower than normal and may have some clearance issues over uneven terrain. It’s a 3 inch lift is used on the axle or an axle flip os performed, There should not be a problem. Also be aware that most travel trailers only have about a 3 inch width on the beam which will not allow the use of all four holes on the side plate mounting holes on the hitch. Using both the two lower side holes and the bottom two holes still should make the hitch plenty secure

THIS IS POSSIBLY THE ONLY WAY TO PUT A HITCH ON A FIFTH WHEEL. IT FIT LIKE IT WAS MADE FOR IT. I USE IT TO TRAILER MY HARLEY AND IT WORKS GREAT. I AM NOT AFRAID OF IT FALLING OFF DOWN THE ROAD. GREAT HITCH!!!



by:

The hitch was easy to install. The hardware did not make it with hitch so it had to be replaced. The only issue was that the bolts were to short to install the hitch to the rv frame. Had to go get them local.
Customer service was great.
I suggest finding a way to attach the hardware to th hitch so if the shipping box rips like mine did the hardware stays with the hitch.
I will use etrailer again when I need something

Item allows me to pull trailer behind camper.i can make one trip to the campground.

Works great,no problems .we take golf cart camping,now we make only one trip.



by:

Great quality! It wouldn’t have taken so long if we didn’t have to move the jack stabilizers first. I am very impressed with the look and feel of the motorcycle carrier as well as the adjustable hitch. Fit perfectly. Love it. My son is stoked.



by:

I ordered the 13703 hitch for my 2019 Rockwood Mini Lite. Just for your information this trailer has the black tank in the very back. I had to put the bracket on the outside of the frame to drill the holes. There is no room on the inside and also need to use a right angle drill. There is also a piece of angle iron that holds up the belly pan that has to be cut off. It was a pretty difficult installation but I did get it done. I'm not complaining just thought I would let you know so you can pass on to another customer.



by:

Install went smoothly, had to relocate the manual scissor jacks that are used to level the RV. Receiver hitch was heavy duty with quality bolting hardware included.



by:
2015 Heartland RV Bighorn Fifth Wheel

I received my order today, and from the look of the box I figured there was stuff missing. I was correct after looking in the box through its many holes The only thing in the box was the receiver bar, no plates to attach or other parts needed to install.

Russ

The hitch has held up very well with one exception one of the bolts that holds the receiver bar from moving left to right sheered off so I have to install a new bolt before I use it gain.



by:

Hitch showed up later than expected, box looks like it had been drug behind the ups truck, missing a few bolts nuts and square spacers which were lose in the box as the bag looks like mice had eaten it! Hopefully it’s a good product but I can’t install it without the missing pieces.

That is tough and I understand your disappointed in missing the hardware needed to install the hitch. I will have our customer service team reach out to assist.



by:

Overall I am satisfied with the receiver hitch. I faced a few challenges installing the hitch. Mostly to due with the location of the bolt holes and the width of the lock nuts. I had to trim the lock nuts to clear the available space. It was an exercise of trial and error. I use the hitch to tow my 2,300 lbs. 16' Deep-V fishing boat behind my 5th wheel. The receiver has performed perfectly.



by:

Works great! Wish I would have bought it sooner than pulling off the bumper.



by:

Shipment was right on time and receiver hitch was high quality. I have 35' Sandpiper Fifth-wheel RV and was not able to bolt up right to the frame without removing the panel covering under the RV, so I elected to make an extension which is welded to the end of the frame. Receiver hitch was then bolted on the extension without any problem in no time at all.



by:

This product is high quality and solid Well designed and fit frame like a glove. Easy for a do it yourselfer

Stan

It mounted up perfectly and have pulled with it about a dozen times. Works great and complete confidence in the equipment as it is made very heavy duty



by:

After figuring out how to mount this hitch on our camper it was evident that it would not bolt up to the existing brackets. We dropped the underbelly and ground off the brackets existing on the trailer and had a welder come in and weld the brackets that came with the hitch on the trailer! We are very pleased with the hitch. We are going to use it for our bike rack and maybe later something heavier!



by:
2021 GMC Sierra 3500

I installed this hitch on a Vilano 320GK. It was listed as the same hitch sold by Vanleigh. The RV has plates welded to the frame to attach the hitch. The installed hitch had very little ground clearance. The RV shop modified the hitch mounting plates and bolted it directly to the frame. The hitch is well made, came with mounting hardware and did fit the RV. My issues were with the mounting provided by the RV manufacturer.



by:

Package showed up in undeliverable condition, parts were missing. I have not heard back yet if I will get another replacement order shipped. Did not receive anything that I ordered

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for Jayco Lite with Rear Bumper Measuring 1.5 Inches by 5 Inches
    We don't have anything that is a precise fit for your 5 by 1-1/2 inch bumper. The closest thing we have is the Curt RV Bumper Hitch # C19101 which will require drilling and a spacer for fit. You will be operating outside of the manufacturer specs so you won't get the warranty with this application. A better option is to use the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703 which will attach to your frame and give you the stability and strength you need...

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2018 Salem 30 Foot Travel Trailer
    The most versatile trailer hitch for trailers and RVs is the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13703. It fits frame widths of 22 to 72 inches. Frame width is measured from the outside of one frame rail to the outside of the other. It fits box frames, C-Channel frames, and I-Beam frames and can be bolted or welded on (welding should be performed by a professional welder). I have linked the instructions and a video showing just one of the ways the hitch can be installed. You...

  • Towing a Trailer and Carrying Bikes at the Same Time with a 2014 Honda Odyssey
    The Thule T2 # TH83JV will work in the receiver portion of multipurpose ball mount # D210. The issue is that you will likely have reduced turning clearance when towing the trailer and the bikes and/or rack could make contact with the trailer if you were to turn tightly enough. The height of the ball mount is another potential issue. The # D210 has a 2-1/4 inch drop. To determine if this will be a factor there are some measurements you can take. First measure from the ground to the top...

  • Compatibility of Trailer Hitch Receiver on Rear of 5th Wheel Trailer
    If the manufacturer states not to put a hitch on the back, then they may have determined it is not safe to anything behind it. We defer to the manufacturer as adding a hitch could void your warranty on the 5th wheel as well and we don't do any independent testing. If they do not explicitly state not to add a hitch, then most 5th wheel trailers do have the ability to use a hitch receiver like the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703 which is made for this type of...

  • Recommended Canoe Carrier Compatible with 2014 Heartland Bighorn 5th Wheel Trailer
    For your 2014 Heartland Bighorn Model M3010RE, I recommend the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703. This will bolt or weld onto your frame and give you 3,500 lbs towing capacity and up to 350 lb tongue weight. Due to the height of your trailer, there really isn't a safe way to carry your canoe or kayak other than to add a trailer. For this application, I recommend the adjustable ball mount # C45900 along with a hitch lock like # 63232. Then use a trailer like...

    The Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch, # 13703, fits frames that measure 22 to 72 inches measuring from outside to outside so it should fit a frame that measures 64 inches inside to inside. It will also fit C-channel and box frames as well as I-beam frames. You will need to use a stabilization strap, # 18050, with this hitch for Curts warranty requirements. I have included a link to the installation instructions for the hitch for you.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1978 Dodge F30 Flair Fleetwood RV
    What I recommend is our most versatile multi-fit trailer hitch, Curt # 13703. This hitch fits frames that measure 22 to 72 inches apart from outside to outside. It fits C-channel, box frames or I-beams. It can be welded or bolted on. Welding should be performed by a qualified professional. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you. The hitch would be great for light towing. It was a 350 pound tongue weight capacity and 3,500 pound tongue weight capacity.

  • Fitment of Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver
    The Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide, # 13703 appears to have the greatest amount of drop of anything currently available.

    Good news! In my research I found that your 2017 Jayco X23F was built on a Norco NextGen frame with integrated A-frame that has an I-beam construction. This means that the adjustable Curt Trailer Hitch # 13703, you were looking at will fit, as long as your frame spread is between 22-72 inches. You will want to remove the cover from below your trailer to measure to be sure. To install the trailer hitch you will also need to modify this lower panel, typically these panels are screwed,...

The # C13702 is adjustable from 18"-51", while the # C13704 will fit frames that are 22"-66" wide. These will not be as wide as the Receiver # 13703 that fits the 22"-72" frames and only has a tongue weight rating of 350lbs.

    The frame mounting flanges on Curt hitch # 13703 measure 12-inches front-to-back and 4-7/8-inches high (high, not wide, please note). These are intended to contact the bottom and outer surfaces of the trailer's frame members. The hitch will fit frames from 22- to 72-inches wide. My technical contact at Curt confirmed that drilling new holes or in any other way modifying the hitch mounting bracket could alter its capacity. Since no testing has been done on a modified bracket Curt cannot...

  • Hitch Recommendation for Rear of Travel Trailer for Bike Rack
    The rear of a travel trailer has a very rough ride quality. Most bike racks aren't really rated for use in that application. That said, not all bumpers are rated for having a hitch installed on them. You'd have to check with the manufacturer to determine if having a hitch installed is recommended. Based on the damage you have now I'd assume it's not. Typically a frame mounted hitch like the part # 13703 is the better choice.

  • Purpose of Curt Hitch Stabilizer Strap and Cargo Carrier Wide Enough for 28 in Wide Generator
    Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. The strap braces the hitch so that when you hit a bump it's not quite as stressful on the hitch. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well. We have the Reese Solo Cargo Carrier part # PS1040100 which is 32 inches wide and 48 inches long. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.

The cradles themselves are only rated for 33 lbs so I cannot recommend you exceed this. With that being said we do still have options for you even when pulling a trailer.

    The rear bumper you have on your 2018 Northwoods Arctic Fox model 27-5l will make accessing the hitch opening of the Curt Hitch part # 13703 maybe more difficult as the opening will be a bit more recessed but overall it would not interfere with the install. As long as the frame width of your trailer is between 22 and 72 inches in width this will fit and work fine.

This universal hitch can be bolted or welded on and it fits frames that are 22" to 72" wide. This hitch will fit Box, C-Channel and I-beam frames.

If you don't have one installed, you could use an adjustable width receiver hitch like # 13703. The hitch can be adjusted for frame widths ranging from 22-72 inches wide, so there isn't much it wouldn't fit. If your rear hitch is already being used for something else, you could install a front mounted receiver like # 306-X7352...

  • Fitment of Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs
    Yes, I do believe the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide, # 13703 will fit.

Either hitch has a 3500 lb towing/350 lb tongue weight capacity. You can see typical installation videos for both hitches by using the provided links.
