by:

Look and quality of the mount is awesome. Beefy in size as well. If using on my particular application, removal of rear diffuser is necessary. If they had extended it another inch it woulda been perfect. 2015 Audi a3 tdi. Wouldn’t let me add a third pic but it’s a finger tip space between the ball and bumper with diffuser removed.



by:

It isbthe right size and helps with the height difference to make the trailer more even with the back end of my Accord.



by:

Heavy duty! I was a little bummed when I found out how much more difficult it was to find a half inch pin for this, but no matter. It is a tad loose inside the hitch, so there's a little rattle, but I doubt it's as noticable as I make it seem. Super classy and a welcome change from the typical draw bar style. Goes great with my Volvo V70 T5. Thanks etrailer.com!



by:

Love the look of these Euro style hitches. Works great and is the perfect height.



by:

Install was simple little over an hour and it was ready to tow fitment was great and love the euro style drawbar I got with it



by:

The first one, saved the car from a rear impact. Sadly the hitch was also damaged and is discontinued.
Thankful I could get a replacement for the attractive euro style ball.



by:

Product is exactly as represented, high quality manufacture and recommended.
I already had a 1 7/8th ball of the same type but most rental trailers suit the 2 inch ball better so now I have both. The 1 7/8 ball tends to rattle even though the fittings work ok and I found that getting it tight enough to not lift off means the ball gets a groove worn in it.

Using this for light (up to 2000 lb) towing behind my Ford Focus, works really well and towed 4*8 cargo trailer without any problem.

Still great, towed a Jacuzzi on a trailer from California to Texas in 21 hours without any issue, its solid and work great.



by:

I installed this on a 2004 Volvo XC70 along with a hitch from etrailer. Both work extremely well for my use (small motorcycle trailer). There's enough clearance between the bumper and the ball to get the trailer connection onto it without scraping the bumper (which is not the case with a 2007 XC70 where I have a similar hitch installed but the bumper plastic is thicker). This drawbar is classy-looking and fits the simple European styling of the car well. Chrome finish on the ball is very tough and I haven't had any rust problems at all.



by:

I am in Germany and found the delivery to my Army Post Office be pretty fast. 100 percent satisfied with the product, delivery and customer service.



by:

Great Product.. Very good construction . Tucks up nice underneath..very clean lines



by:

Great product, sturdy build quality. So far, so good. I have no problems with this hitch. This hitch is perfect for my GMC Terrain. etrailer customer service is outstanding also as my first hitch put a hole in the box during shipping, and an empty box was delivered. I called etrailer, and they sent out a new hitch right away. I have done business with etrailer in the past and will continue to buy from them. Great company.



by:

Super high quality for the price. Nice figment.



by:

This hitch put my utility trailer at the correct height for towing. Very happy with this purchase. It’s worth the extra 10-15 dollars!



by:

excellent product. but not compatible for United Kingdom as here everything is metric. Uk uses 50mm towball rather than the US 2". My euro model Thule Easyfold xt did not fit on the 2" ball



by:

Your product is a great item, its easy to understand instructions, and it fit right up to where it said it would fit. It's has great workmanship. The only problem I had was with the delivery of the product. They came one about 6:15 pm, and my gate was locked, and from there on it became a problem. I change the address to one of UPS, their own access point, and they could not get it to their own access point for a total of four days and 3 tries they still didnt get it right. Finally, I went to UPS distribution center in West Sacramento, where they told me that my box had busted opened and I told them to give it to me like that that they didn't have to repair the Box I would just look in there and pull out the items. It still remains to be seen if there's a items missing from that box.



by:

Receiver hitch and trailer tongue scale arrived sooner than I thought. It seems like a lot of money for a little scale like that but it will be well worth it knowing how much weight is really on the motorhome hitch. I can finally know for sure and make adjustments. Thank you Etrailer.



by:

As always... etrailer comes through again!! There shipping is fast and efficient. My item arrived quite secure. It is exactly what I was looking for. I very much like the euro trailer hitch design. I can't wait to use it. I am using it with the etrailer class II, on a '16 Hyundai Tucson Turbo. Thanks again etrailer!!!



by:

It was easy to install and it's perfect to hitch a trailer or put a bike rack



by:

Product brand available locally with limitations to manufacture's upgrade models. E trailer filled the gap with excellent option choices, pricing, customer service and quick, accurate delivery.



by:

Works perfectly. Exactly what I wanted.
Described
perfectly. Works great with My Focus ST.
Looks so much better than our American "standard" flat and square hitches!



by:

etrailer.com is an excellent source to purchase a trailer hitch, wiring, and drawbar. They check to make sure the hitch works for your car. Speed of delivery was excellent! Bryan W is an excellent salesman to work with.



by:

The drawbar appears perfect. Haven't had a chance to use it but I don't anticipate any problem. The company seems to really care about their image which is a very good thing. In my opinion, the only weak point is their cost of freight and the time it took to arrive. I have to admit, I have been spoiled by the master .com company out there which deals in everything.



by:

Order was shipped promptly and correct. Products were exactly as described. I will use etrailer again in the future.



by:

I am a little surprised it did not come with a hitch pin. When I bought the 1 7/8 hitch it came with a pin.



by:

Bought this to accompany my kayak trailer; very happy with it. Especially like that I can remove it when not in use, so no more bruised shins!

    Curt Trailer Hitch, # C11200, is a confirmed fit for the 2013 Lexus CT200h. You will want to check the owner's manual for your specific vehicle before adding a trailer hitch and any accessories. If you want a hitch bike rack, we have a few dozen class I-compatible racks to choose from, click the provided link to see them. To maintain the hitch warranty, Curt requires the use of a stabilization strap like part # 18050 on any non trailer load carried by the hitch. The Thule Helium Aero...

That said you are likely past any manufacturer warranties that would be voided so the decision is yours to make. You will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11200 to attach either the 1-7/8" # C45571 or 2" # C45572 Curt Euro Style Drawbar. You will need to match the ball size to the coupler on the trailer.

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11291 is custom fit for your 2014 Scion iQ.

I recommend installing the Upgraded Circuit Protected Tail Light Converter # 119178KIT when you install the receiver.

    Currently, a class I receiver like the Curt # C11604 that is rated for 200lbs of tongue weight and towing up to 2,000lbs is the only receiver available for your 2016 Honda Civic Sedan. There is not a receiver capable of supporting the weight of your Curt carrier fully loaded behind your Civic and this is most likely due to the structure under your Civic not being able to support the weight. The 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18110 will fit the class I receiver for your Civic. You will only...

This is a universal fit harness though that will require some hardwiring. The other option is the no-splice Tekonsha kit part # 119250KIT which uses sensors to tap into the taillight wiring instead of requiring splicing.

    For your 2013 Ford C-Max the Curt trailer hitch part # C12092 would be a great option confirmed to fit. It's a Class II with plenty of capacity as well at 3,500 lbs trailer weight. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 119250KIT which is also a fit. For a ball mount you'd then want the part # C45571 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or part # C45572 for a 2 inch ball.

  • How to Pick Out the Correct Rise/Drop Euro Ball Mount
    In order to pick out the correct rise/drop ball mount to use with the Curt Hitch part # C11377 you will need to take a couple measurements. The goal is to have your trailer towed as level as possible. In order to do that the correct rise/drop ball mount needs to be used. To pick out the correct one you will need to measure the distance from the top of your hitch opening to the ground and then with your trailer sitting as level as possible measure from the bottom of the coupler to the ground....

  • Choosing the Right Curt Class II Euro Style Ball Mount to Tow a Trailer Level
    If you are measuring to the top of the coupler then I will have to ask for the measurement to the bottom of the coupler instead. This is because the coupler covers the ball so the measurement to the bottom of the coupler provides a more accurate representation of what kind of rise or drop is needed to tow a trailer level. I am willing to bet that the measurement to the bottom of the coupler will have you at just about level. That would make the best Curt Euro-style ball mount with a 2...

From the center of the pin hole to the part of the shank where it starts to bend up is 3 inches. This will work because the rear bumper on the Altima tapers upward above the hitch receiver.
