All in all the install went about as perfect as any of my previous hitch installs from etrailer.com. The fish wire technique was a no brainer for me. For my vehilcle the heat shield required slightly more trimming than expected. You just have to enjoy doing the work. The wiring kit was a breeze and worked perfectly. Thanks etrailer.com for my new Curt class3 hitch.
It’s weird how well the fishing system works. Make sure you get a step bit! Any other system of drilling the frame is a pain. Great hitch
I always buy hitch/wiring harness from etrailer, and send customers here. It’s always good quality. Other companies mix crap in their inventory, makes it a gamble. I don’t like gambling
I purchased this hitch for my bike rack. There was a bit of difficulty installing it on my vehicle but I do not think that was the fault of the hitch. It has worked great for its purpose. It is easy to put my rack on and take it off. It also does not extend beyond my bumper which is great.
This hitch is solid, durable, and gets the job done on my 2019 Ascent. I’m using this to hook up a powered wheelchair ramp. The install went very smooth until it was time to trim the heat shield to allow access for the carriage bolts, then enlarging the Forward most access wholes to allow room for the carriage bolts to be installed. I went to Lowe’s to get the proper step bit (Which is surprisingly expensive 49.99). I would have given 5 stars but only 4 wishing that the carriage bolts were smaller to fit the factory predrilled wholes. I do understand that bigger bolts are stronger and durable. I’m no professional mechanic so the install video helped better than the pdf instructions. Anyone considering this hitch please watch the ENTIRE video before purchasing. You will need additional tools for the installation.
Box came in beat up, thanks ups,,,unit was fine easy 2 person install
The how to video's are great install was pretty easy thanks etrailer
The installation went smooth, but took longer than you had posted.
Exactly what I wanted. Easy to follow installation, everything that was sent worked great and made installing much easy. Would definitely recommend.
You might want to add a side note to this installation. I got the hardware in just fine, but when it come to attaching the hitch you are better taking the two mufflers off. Two bolts and two exhaust hangers on each side is all the stands in the way of clearing a lot of space. There is no way one person can leave the mufflers on, prop up the hitch,and try to get the hitch mounted without pushing a bolt into the frame. There is not enough room to fit an adult hand between the hitch frame and the muffler in order to put the nuts on. I did this on my back and it was nowhere near a one hour job...three hours, maybe. I’m pleased with the hitch...just adding my 2 cents.
I did not want to rate until we had installed the hitch and used it to transport our e-bikes. Installation was fairly quick and easy and the coiled bolt guides were very helpful. We transported our e-bikes from Nevada to Montana and stopped several times to let our dog run and relieve himself. The bike rack tilts easily to let the dog out without issue. I would highly recommend this rack!
This time the hitch arrived with everything needed. The hitch was fairly easy to install by myself, it took me about 2 hours. The video on the website was easy to follow and the instructions seemed correct. I really appreciated the six fishwire included. This made the project so much easier compared to the last one I did.
I love the product and more importantly the installation idea. The only thing that would have turned this into a shorter job for me would be annotations denoting the tools needed for the install before the purchase is made. I had to visit the hardware store to buy tin snips, special drill bit to widen holes in the frame. Perhaps this was already in the item description and I missed it. Regardless, I love etrailers and will continue to accessorize my cars with their help.
The Curt Hitch C13400 and the installation video covered how the installation should be done and the tools needed. I installed the hitch by myself without jacking the Ascent off the ground in my driveway. By doing it by myself on my driveway was more difficult and took longer than the time indicated in the video, but was doable.
Shipping was fast. Item was as described. Fit my 2019 subaru ascent perfect. I would suggest help. getting it in between the mufflers was a little tricky but it does fit.
Amazing service! Amazing shipping speed. I ordered this hitch from another company, it took them over a month to mark the item as shipped. etrailer sent it within two day! Thank you so much.
etrailer delivers once again with a quality product available for a good price. Delivery was right on time.
Installation was reasonable. Love the h itch.
Fits well, but shipping got pushed twice. They did ship in 2 days when shipped but when it showed very beaten up I don't have time to deal with exchanging it so I guess I'll have to see how it holds up. Had multiple spots the powder coat was scraped off even.
Installation very easy. Looks good. Shipment was very fast. Thank you.
A wonderful company to do business with. Quality products shipped fast and usually several options and great how to videos.
I gave the hitch a 5 star because it was exactly how it was described on the website and the installation was properly explained. I will say, this one was pretty tough to install due to drilling expanded holes and using the fish wires. The picture explaining the fish wires was not great, but a quick check of the online video made it very easy to follow. The install took me about 4 hours, but that included a trip to the hardware store to purchase the step drill bit I did not have.
Best hitch and customer service by far for my 2021 Subaru Ascent! It looks great and would highly recommend etrailer.com for any of your towing needs.
Hitch arrived promptly and was well packaged like everything I have bought from eTrailer. Fit on customer's Subaru Ascent was perfect and my customer is very happy with it.
Service was very impressive. I would buy anything they sell gladly even if just a bit more expensive.
Excellent
