Install only took 40 minutes and one beer. Didn’t have the luxury of a lift or second set of hands but was able to use my knee to hold the other side up while I got bolts started on the opposite end. Word of advice is to start bolts on the passenger side if doing it solo as you can actually use the tire heat shield to wedge it against and hold the driver’s side up once you wrestle it into position.

After a year, no complaints here. The finish still looks great and the mounting hardware still looks good with no rust or discoloration. Would definitely buy again.

Well, I watched the video how to install it before it got here, and it said anyone could do it with in 30 minutes. I had proper air tools at my house, and I had it on my truck with in 17 minutes, my nephew was timing me, that is after all unboxed and laid out. he did help me hold it in place to get the first bolt started to keep it from falling. but it was so easy just like the video said, and it's a great hitch, totally happy with it and the customer service they assist you with, and the lower style with the tubes showing match the Gladiator roughness anyway and looks good on it. thank you.

Good product! Just need a breaker bar for the factory bolts



by:

Great product, the box was a bit damaged when it arrived, but no product damage. This was definitely a two-person job, one to hold the receiver and one to start the bolts. However, taking off the bolts and the final tightening it was back to a one person job.
Note, the 21M was not part of my regualr socket set. (Trip one to Lowes.) I also needed an extention for the 3/4 bolts to untighten and retighten. (Trip two to Lowes.)
Honestly; I was not sure about the fishing wire steps, but it really worked out pretty easily. Looks great on the Gladiator, can't wait to get the bike rack on and go for a ride. Definatly would purcahse againI if needed a trailer hitch. It took about 45 minutes, minus the trips to Lowes.

Excellent quality and fast shipping combined with great customer service !!!

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch

  • What Kayak Rack and Bed Extender do You Recommend When Using the Access Lorado # A53VR?
    Yes! You can use both a kayak rack and a truck bed extender on your 2021 Jeep Gladiator with the Trail Rail system. Since the Access Lorado Soft, Roll-Up Tonneau Cover # A53VR leaves the stake pockets completely open, you will be able to install a way to install a kayak rack like a stake-pocket mounted ladder rack. As long as the rack uses only the stake pockets without any clamps onto the bed rails, the rack is compatible with the cover. Since the Access Lorado rack is a roll-up style,...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System or Extended Ball Mount for Clearing a Tail Gate
    Yeah, there are no TorkLift SuperHitches available for a 2023 Jeep Gladiator or any Jeep. Those are the heaviest duty bumper pull hitches and are reserved for large trucks with the highest towing capacities. You'll want to look into a weight distribution system with an extended shank if your Gladiator's hitch is rated for one. If you have a hitch that mounts underneath your frame like the Curt item # C74DR you can use a weight distribution system. For a 550 lbs tongue weight, I recommend...

  • Can 2023 Jeep Gladiator Increase Towing Capacity
    It is impossible to increase the manufacturer's towing capacity on any vehicle, including your 2023 Jeep Gladiator. Those towing capacities are set by the vehicle engineers for safety and no product can increase that. Even with a hitch that fits your Gladiator like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C74DR that has a 7,500 lb towing capacity, that is simply what the hitch has been rated for by Curt, and does not represent the capacity of the vehicle. So when towing with your '23 Gladiator...

  • Recommended Curt Trailer Hitch For A 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
    Out of the two Curt Trailer hitches, I recommend The Curt Trailer Hitch # C74DR. I like this hitch over the other Curt hitch because it has a more traditional installation and will attach to the frame of your 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon when the Curt Trailer Hitch # CU74FR attaches to the Gladiator's rear bumper cover and will secure through the rear cross member. I will attach pictures of the installations below. The Curt Hitch # C74DR also has a higher towing capacity at 7,500 pounds...

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C74DR fits both the Rubicon and standard or excluding Rubicon 2023 Jeep Gladiators.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C74DR is our highest rated hitch that fits the 2023 Gladiator Rubicon but it will also fit the 2023 Gladiator. I confirmed with Curt that this hitch does fit the Rubicon If you are planning on towing you will also need a...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
    Jeff, the Draw-Tite # 65079 is not going to work with your 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. I took a look to see if we have any front hitches for your Rubicon and we unfortunately don't have any. We do have plenty of rear mounted hitches like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C74DR which has a weight capacity of 8,000 lbs, a tongue weight capacity of 800 lbs, and will bolt right up.
