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:

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



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.



by:

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:

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:

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

Thanks!

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.

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!

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.

  • Will The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13701 Fit a 1984 Westfalia Vanagon
    Unfortunately we don't have 1984 Westfalia Vanagon available to confirm fitment of the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C13701. But this can adjust from 18" to 51" so as to adapt to multiple applications. This of course would require the drilling of holes to mount. Or it can be welded in place too. The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C13701 has a 2" drop, is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver that is rated for 5,000 lbs GTW (gross trailer weight) and 500 lbs TW...

  • 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.

  • Frame-Mounted RV Hitch for 2016 Keystone Passport
    A frame-mounted hitch for your Keystone Passport is a much better option than a bumper-mount type, both for stability and for weight capacity. We offer several frame-mount RV hitches with capacities up to 500-lbs of tongue weight. All such items are shown on the linked page. The key is checking your trailer's frame width to find the best match and the required capacity. We also have some with drop, such as Curt # C13701 which has its 2-inch receiver 2-inches below the crosstube.

  • How to Determine if a Camper Trailer Can Tow a Small Boat Trailer
    Most likely you would be fine since it looks like you have a solid square bumper that is welded to your trailer frame, but you really would need to contact the trailer manufacturer to determine if your trailer is rated for towing and what it's towing capacities would be. You also will need to check the local DOT in your area to make sure you can tow two trailers.

  • 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 Receiver for a 1990 P32 RV Chassis
    I do have options for you but none of which I would recommend as an exact fit because the aftermarket trailer hitch manufacturers we carry (Draw-Tite/Curt) do not make hitches that are designed to fit specific RV chassis's. The only options I can offer you are universal like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701. This hitch fits frames spaced between 18" and 52" apart. It has a 5,000 max gross trailer trailer weight (GTW) and 500 max tongue weight (TW) rating. It comes...

The Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13701 can however solve your problem. Theis is an adjustable hitch that you can attach to the frame of the Express 4500 to get a 2" receiver on the back rated for 500 lb. of tongue weight and 5,000 lbs. of gross trailer weight.
