• Differences between the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13651 and # 13650 for a Ford Escape
  I spoke with my contact at Curt and he told me that the Curt Trailer Hitch, # C13651, does sit lower to the ground than the Curt Hitch, # 13650.

Once installed, the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13651 will sit approximately 13-1/2 inches from the ground and hitch # 13650 will sit approximately 13-1/4 inches from the ground....

  I'd recommend a Curt Class III receiver for your Escape. Curt makes a great product with a durable powder coat finish.

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2005 Mazda Tribute
  The Curt # E-3S is meant to install on a full or medium size truck step bumper, and wouldn't work on your Tribute. We do offer custom designed hitches meant to fit your vehicle, and that's what I'd recommend you use. If your Tribute already has the factory 1-1/4 inch hitch on it, use Curt # C13651. If it does NOT have the factory 1-1/4 inch hitch on it, use # 13650. If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'll also need a wiring harness like # 118426, a ball mount like # AMSC2 and...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2007 Mercury Mariner
  2 inch trailer hitches have the best weight capacities and the most hitch accessories made for them so whenever available this is the hitch size to go with. So for your 2007 Mercury Mariner you'd want the part # 13650 for if you do not have a factory hitch currently or # C13651 for if you do have a factory 1-1/4 inch hitch. For trailer wiring then you'd want the Tekonsha part # 118551 as it installs the easiest and also has the most reliable converter box.

• Availability of 2 Inch Hitch to Fit 2009 Ford Escape with Factory Class II Tow Package and Hitch
  We have two Class III 2-inch hitches that will fit underneath the OEM 1-1/4 inch hitch. One from Curt, # C13651, and one from Draw-Tite, # 75751. Either of these hitches will fit just fine with the factory hitch. However, you cannot use both the Class III hitch and the OEM Class II at the same time. It would put too much stress on the vehicle frame.
