• Trailer Hitch, Wiring and Ball Mount for 2017 Ford Mustang
  There is a potential way for you to haul an electric wheelchair with a 2017 Ford Mustang, although there is not an adapter that is going to work. The reason for that is there is just one 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch adapter with rise that works with a Class I hitch, and that adapter, the Brophy # HT5R, has a 5 inch rise, which doesn't meet your needs. Additionally, the use of any adapter will reduce the weight capacity of your hitch by 50 percent, and since there are only Class I hitches with a...

• What Ball Mount is Needed For 15 Inch Hitch Height With Draw-Tite Receiver 24872 on 2014 Ford Focus?
  When we installed the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24872 on a 2014 Ford Focus Hatchback in our shop we found the receiver height to be 10-3/4" from the ground. The Draw-Tite Drawbar # 3593 gives you a 2-1/8" rise so that would only give you a height of 12-7/8". Instead you should use the Drawbar # 3594 with a 4" rise and the 1-7/8" Ball # 19256. This will give you a hitch height of 14-3/4" so you will only have 1/4" drop on the front of your trailer. You will also need...

• 2018 Hyundai Sonata Parts Needed to Tow a Trailer
  The ball mount you get to pair with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11402 on your 2018 Hyundai Sonata ultimately depends on the height of the trailer coupler that you're towing. A general rule of thumb is that smaller trailers will have a coupler height of about 14" - 16" and when we installed this hitch on a 2018 Sonata (see attached video) we found the hitch height to be 10-1/2" which means we need a minimum rise of 3-1/2" to be in that range. For your application I recommend checking...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Lincoln MKZ that Allow Reinstallation of Lower Fascia
  For the Curt hitch part # C12091 for your 2017 Lincoln MKZ Curt decided to recommend removal of the lower fascia instead of trimming it and reinstalling it.

That being said I would recommend the Draw Tite over the Curt because the Draw Tite does not require the use of a stabilizer...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2012 Mazda 3
  On both the Hidden Hitch 60258 (discontinued) and the Draw-Tite, # 24843, the top of the receiver tube will be approximately 1 inch below the bottom of the rear fascia. The bottom of the receiver will then be another 1-3/4 inches below that. Measure from that point to the ground to get the ground clearance. Scraping the ground is possible on steep driveways and dips but you are unlikely to damage the vehicle frame unless you are moving quickly to where there is a lot of extra force that...

• Ball Mount Will Not Fit Into Draw-Tite Class I Hitch, # 24794, On Nissan Sentra
