Features to know about

Add Real Utility and Strength: Class III 2" Receiver for Everyday Hauling

This Curt trailer hitch receiver is built for real-world use. With a 2" x 2" opening, it handles standard ball mounts, cargo carriers, and bike racks with ease. Rated at 4,000 lbs maximum gross trailer weight and 400 lbs maximum tongue weight, it’s ready for small trailers, weekend toys, or extra gear when you need it. The square-tube design adds strength and stability, so your load feels solid behind you.

Built to Last in All Conditions: Powder-Coated, Fully Welded Steel Construction

The hitch is made from sturdy steel that’s precision welded by robots for consistent strength and fit. It’s finished with a gloss black powder coat over a protective base layer to fight off rust and corrosion. That means it keeps its clean look and solid feel even after years of towing and exposure to the elements.

No-Nonsense Installation: Bolt-On Design with Included Hardware

You don’t need to weld or modify anything to get this hitch mounted. It bolts directly to the frame using a complete hardware kit and clear installation instructions that come in the box. The concealed cross tube design helps it blend in neatly under the bumper while keeping that reliable Curt build quality where it counts.

Thank you for your e-mail. Impressive. I have enjoyed the trailer and will return when we need something further.

I have only towed my trailer once with this, but it worked perfectly. The parts all arrived very quickly, they were very easy to install, the wiring worked the first time (I followed the enclosed instructions), and it looks great. I would definitely go this route again if we need to put a hitch on a different vehicle. The price was right and the ease of installation made it absolutely worth it. I highly recommend this product from etrailer.com.

Hitch still working like new after a year, will order in the future.

I needed a hitch to pull my motorcycle trailer without having to use my gas guzzling 4X4 V8 pickup truck.This hitch was very easy to install on my 2008 Jeep Compass. It simply bolted in place with no problems and I didn't even detach the muffler like the instructions suggested to do. The wiring harness was an easy install also. Hardest part was running the power wire to the battery. I just followed the brake lines forward and that worked great to keep it away from anything that could damage it. I would recommend both of these products to anyone.
by:
I have 2 Jeep Patriots (2008 and 2010). I put one of these on both of them. It was an easy installation as my older son helped me bolt them on. We use them to haul a bike rack (3 bike platform rack). They work great for that. It also gives a little extra metal at the back of the car in case someone was to bump the rear of your car at a stop light.

I purchased a trailer hitch receiver and wiring harness for my daughter's 2010 Jeep Patriot. I had planned on spending Saturday installing it for her. Unfortunately, when I crawled under the Jeep, I experienced my first case of Vertigo. I was unable to lie on my back and could not install the receiver. However, I was able to read the instructions and coach my daughter through the installation. In less than one and a half hours, she installed her wiring harness and hitch receiver. The instructions were straight forward and every part was a perfect fit! I would highly recommend this product. The team at etrailer provided outstanding service and I am planning on purchasing a receiver for my Wrangler from them in the future.

VERY NICE, well made, great price, fit perfect 2 inch hitch assembly! Super fast shipping! Received item 2 days after ordering. Took less than half an hour to actually install the hitch with the help of my floor jack to hold it in place. Did not need to jack the car up or cut any body pieces or loosen exhaust on my JEEP COMPASS like some videos show. VERY PLEASED which is hard to say now-a-days. THANKS

Too easy to install, no joke! Out of the box and on our 2010 Patriot in 15 minutes, no exhaust removal needed. Free shipping took one week to arrive but it was free. Wiring package took about 2 hours, I was not comfortable running power wire as shown in video. I chose to run parallel with rear brake line instead, which took longer. Dealer wanted $500 to install, did it myself for $200 and 2.25 hours of my time and use of my torque wrench...
by:

Great product. Installed in 15-20 min. Without dropping the rear exhaust brackets. Fit perfectly.

I love it! Still on and used alot! Great product. Definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to purchase a trailer hitch

by:
2009 Jeep Patriot
my 2009 Jeep Patriot Limited 4x4 perfectly. Took me about 30 min to install. Even a beginner could do this install with minimal headache.
Did a little homework and found this to be the top choice. Seemed to be a great compromise between the most rugged hitch with the lowest price. The ease of installation, and the installation video as a reference, had me sold!
I personally give it a 5/5.
etrailer.com also is a great place for good reference and information about hitches, trailers, etc. I myself will be a repeat customer...later this week as a matter of fact.
by:
This trailer hitch was so easy to install. I thought I would need help but I didn't. I didnt even have to lower the exhaust as the instructions say. I simply lifted the hitch, held it with one hand and installed a bolt with the other. Aligning the bolts was easy. Had some difficulty installing the nuts but after manning up, it went on. There is little wiggle room but was able to tighten the bolts. Instructions say to torque the nuts 115 ft. lbs ( not much). I do not have a torque wrench and did not want to spend money for a one time use, so I used elbow grease. Tightened it down till I lifted my self off the ground. The hitch will not move at all after that. Very . Gonna put my 3 bicycle rack on it. can't wait.

Hitch works great. Its well built and easy to install.

by:
2008 Jeep Patriot
not a mechanic, but I do have some manual skills. E-trailer site mentions I would have to widen holes for the bolts to fit. But the bolts went straight through. The instructions booklet was a bit confusing too. It said I would need do do a cut-out in my rear bumper plastic. This was not mentioned on e-trailer site. It turned out they were right. Not cutting, no drilling. Perfect fit. Those were actually good news, but still a tad confusing. Otherwise, it looks pretty sturdy. Time will tell for rusting issues.
by:
needed a receiver, so we could attach a bike rack. I ordered this one on a Sunday. It came on Wednesday. I installed alone in my driveway, with just a straight wrench and a socket wrench, following the video instructions on the etrailer website. Easy.
by:
Installation took me about 30 minutes to do by myself, with no lift. Also in the dark with a flash light. If i would have know this was this easy i would have done it a long time ago A+ product. Just wish they would give you a bundle deal, Hitch, receiver and wiring harness would be a plus.

and I am very satisfied. I received my order 1 day ahead of schedule. The Curt trailer hitch receiver fits perfectly on my 2009 Jeep patriot. Looking forward to do another business with etrailer.
by:
etrailer was incredibly easy to work with. they even helped me ensure that i should surprise my husband with a new hitch and bike rack by shipping the hitch directly to our mechanic for installation.
by:
2009 Jeep Patriot
I have installed this on my 2009 Patriot.I chose this one for the added 500lbs tow capacity compared to the other matches for my vehicle and not being worried about the extra work, dificulty and time in installation -since I'm a professional when it commes to mechanics.I will never tow a 4000lbs trailer with this vehicle(far exceeds what the little jeep could do :)) so now I'll probably save time and choose the other stile without the drilling required and without the exhaust lowering requirement.
Overall a solid built hitch good fit for this car and hope to get good use for the life of the car!

2008 Jeep Patriot
Blazing fast delivery. Ordered on Sunday afternoon and it was on my doorstep by the time I got home from work on Tuesday. The hitch was a direct fit onto our 2008 Patriot.

After it was out of the box, it took me a total of about 30 minutes to install in my driveway. Excellent service. Would definitely order from these guys again.

by:
2010 Jeep Patriot
Patriot in less than 30 minutes. I did not need to lower the muffler, cut the fascia or drill any holes. It was very easy, I used a floor jack to support one side while I rotated the receiver around the muffler and tail pipe.
by:
The hitch for my Jeep was a perfect fit. The installation was incredibly easy minus working the exhaust hangers off so that the exhaust could be lowered prior to installing the hitch itself.
by:
2009 Jeep Patriot
to our 2009 Patriot. It was helpful to have my daughter help me, but it might have only taken me a bit longer to do myself. We didn't need to adjust the exhaust system at all to enable installation, though some of the nuts/bolts are a bit cramped to get access when tightening. However, after a few attempts with my wrenches (use a ratchet for one) to find the best reach approach, I was able to cycle through the tightening process. We also didn't have to enlarge holes; bolts fit through cleanly. Total installaiton time about 40 minutes. This product is a great deal, easy to install, and works well. We are pleased.
by:
2009 Jeep Patriot
I was able to install this hitch on my 2009 patriot without having to lower the exhaust, you should insert the passenger side first then the drivers side last. The drilling of the hole and fishing the bolt thru was the most difficult part. I chose this hitch for the price and added mounitng bolts. It was on sale so it was a good fit for my budget!
