Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe, we're going to be installing a Class-3, 2-inch Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver with part number C13152. And this is what it's going to look like once you get it installed. Most of it's going be tucked up underneath, but there is still going to be some of it visible on the outside.It has a five-eighths inch hitch pin hole, and a hitch pin and clip, which is not included, but can be picked up on our website with part number PC3. It is a plate style safety chain loop, so it's going to be quite wide, although it is a little thicker, but you should still be able to use your safety chains at just about any angle.It also features a reinforced collar. It is a 6,000 pound gross trailer weight, which is the weight that it pulls behind it, and a 900 pound tongue weight, which is the force going down on your receiver hitch tube. It also works with weight distribution systems, and while utilizing one, it increases the gross trailer weight rating to 8,000 pounds, while the tongue weight rating remains the same at 900 pounds.And now I'm going to give you some measurements to help you on deciding on accessories, such as ball mounts, bike racks and cargo carriers.
From the center of the hitch pin hole to the rear of the bumper, it's going to be about 5.5 inches. And from the inside top edge of the receiving tube to the ground, it's going to be about 13.25 inches.Now to begin our install, we're going to need to remove the spare tire. We've already gone ahead and done that. Next we'll need to remove the drivers and passengers side under-panels. You'll need to remove the push pins, and then just pull it down.
You can use a screwdriver, or body panel tool to remove your push pins. And now repeat the same process on the other side.Now when removing your panels, if the nuts do not pull off with the panel, you just need to unthread this, and then you can reinsert it back into the panel you removed. Before you remove your exhaust, you'll want to put a strap up to catch the exhaust to keep it from falling down too far and causing any damage to the vehicle. Once you've got a strap in place that'll catch it, you can take the exhaust down. Next we'll need to remove our exhaust hangers to lower it down.
You want to use some spray lubricant to make it easier to remove the hangers. To remove the hangers, find a good place to pry from, and just push them off. You need to do that for all three hangers. There's one located here, here and here towards the front of the vehicle.Now on our drivers side, you're going to need to take the bumper alignment pin, and bend it down a little bit so it's out of the way of our hardware. Just enough to give you clearance to put your bolts in.
Now we'll look at our passenger side, it doesn't look like it's going to be a problem, but if on yours it's a little bit closer to the hole, you may need to bend this side as well.Now before we put our hitch up, we're going to want to clean out our weld nuts to make sure that the bolts go in clean without holing. You'll use some spray lubricant, and a brush to clean it out. You can get this brush on our website with part number 814092. Do this for all four holes. Now it's recommended to grab an extra set of hands to help you hold the hitch in place, so we're going to line it up, up there, and get a bolt started on each side. You want your conical tooth washers installed with your bolts with the teeth pointing up towards the hitch.And once you've got it loosely installed, the hitch will hold itself in place so you can install your remaining hardware. Now when putting your hitch into place, make sure that the hitch goes between the frame and the bumper alignment pin on the passenger side. Next on the drivers side we're going to install our carriage bolts. Starting from the outside of the frame, slide the bolt through the hole, and you need to wiggle your hitch up and down a little bit to get it in place. Now do this for both holes. Now get the larger flange nuts and thread them on, and do this for both bolts. Now on your rear bolts here, you may need to bend your bumper alignment pins slightly out of the way, so you can get your hardware installed.Now repeat this process on the other side. And the only difference on your passenger side is you'll have a plate that needs to be installed on the outside when you slide your bolts through. And again, you may need to bend your bumper alignment pin out of the way to get your hardware installed. And now we need to go back and tighten up all our hardware. The lower weld nut bolts are going to use a 17 millimeter. And your upper carriage bolts will tighten down with a 19 millimeter.And now with everything tightened down, we can go back and torque our hardware to the specifications in the instructions. Now with our hitch installed, all we need to do is put our exhaust back up, our side panels, and then reinstall our spare tire. And do this on both sides.And that completes our installation of the Class-3, 2-inch Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on our 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe.

This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.by: Gene E12/28/2015
Perfect fit and extremely easy installation on my wife's 2013 SantaFe Sport. Only took me about 30 minutes, after watching the etrailer installation video. Best of all, the hitch didn't cost me $697.00 as it is listed on the Hyundai accessories website - that's absolutely crazy!! I would recommend you check to see if you have the factory tow connection already on the vehicle before ordering the wiring kit. All I needed was the C56151 kit, which plugs directly into the factory plug just behind the driver side rear tire. I ordered everything before checking and selected "without factory tow package", since there wasn't a tow hitch already installed on the vehicle. The wiring kit recommended was C56184, which will work, but is a more complicated installation. It would be great if there was a prompt telling you to check for the factory plug, prior to ordering the wiring kit. My wife is now very happy that she can tow our small utility trailer anywhere she wants. THANKS etrailer.com! 234405
1 year later and still looks like the day I put it on. Great product!

Arrived quickly, so that's a plus. The way this slides into place on the 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe there is an alignment pin where the bumper is slid forward during the car assembly that is close to where the bolts are. I was impressed by the precise construction of the hitch that it slide up into place without interfering with alignment pins. I did have to bend the driver's side pin just a touch (as instructed by the instructions) to get a proper socket on one of the large nuts to apply the correct torque. I'm talking 3 millimeters or something. Not a worry at all, all stock use of the pin is completely retained. Heavy duty powdercoating. Not that you'll get much chance to appreciate it, since once it's installed, the hitch is super stealthy. The picture attached is taken just a couple feet off the ground. I installed it in my driveway without a lift, just a couple of drive up ramps. I don't LOVE rolling around on concrete, but meh, it's totally doable. The time estimates given, I'm guessing, are for using a lift. From start to finish, including being called in for dinner, and picking up all my tools afterward, it took me a couple hours. 80549
A year later, everything is still fine. No rust spots that Ive noticed.
Anders G - 05/16/2014by: Sean06/18/2017
This hitch looks and works great. It fit perfectly and bolted up to my vehicle with ease. 395781
everything I purchased is working great etrailer is the only place I shop when it comes to products of this nature. Thanx for the follow up.

This is the perfect rack if you think you might use your hitch for anything down the road - trust me, you will upgrade. Installation was straightforward. A word of caution. If you live where roadsalt is used, pick up an M10x1.25 tap and chase the weldnut threads in the frame. Mine were impossible to get the bolt into. Five minutes with a tap and I could thread them in by hand. I bought this hitch to carry a bike rack (for now - see upgrades!) and just a word of advice. The Thule T2 Classic is a great two bike tray. According to the Thule information, it will not fold up vertically on our 2015 Santa Fe Sport. It will work just fine. In my pics you can see the wheel tray comes close when the rack is centered. It's close but there's not enough play to hit the bumper. Both are great products - buy them from eTrailer! 388730

I purchased the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on Sunday 3/23 and had it at my front door a few days later. The hitch was installed on a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2.4 by my local Hyundai dealer in less than an hour. I also purchased the Curt Hitch Extender for 2" Hitch Receivers - 8" Long - C45791 as the hitch will be used for our Thule bike rack. This allows for ample clearance from the back of the vehicle. As far as eTrailer.com and their customer support staff...they were excellent to do business with. Very helpful and knowledge. It was welcoming to get personal responses instead of auto-emails. Great user-friendly website too! 123664
Just waiting for warm weather to get the Thule bike rack back on hitch. Still working out!

I purchased the T-one vehicle wiring harness, along with the Curt trailer hitch receiver, for my new Santa Fe Sport. The dealership Service Department did the installation for me in order to maintain my warranty on the vehicle. The cost of the tow hitch set-up and the cost of dealership installation was significantly lower than if I were to have had the dealership order the parts. In fact, it was more than a 50% savings. The Hyundai salesman and Service Department were so very impressed with the price and quality of the tow hitch and kit, I was delivered, that they requested eTrailer.com website from me for referral to their future customers that are looking for additional ways to save money in their new car buying experience. My vehicle look exactly like the pictures provided on etrailer.com website. My Santa Fe happens to be the same color as well. Again, I had the trailer hitch receiver, along with the tow kit, installed professionally at the dealership for more than 50% of the price if I would have purchased the vehicle with the hitch included. All parts were exact fitting as described, e.g., no welding, modifications, and so forth. 154177

I purchased this product prior to going to the Outer Banks last July. The ordering process was a breeze, and the product arrived promptly. After getting it installed at our local auto shop, I was ready to go. This product did more than hold its' own. I attached a hitch to it, and had no problems what so ever. My wife and I were traveling with our two year old, and needed the extra space to pack toys, etc for her. Without this product, that wouldn't have been possible. I definitely recommend this trailer hitch! 244451
Thanks for the follow up. After one year, the product still holds up well, and I still highly recommend!

Hi Installed Hitch today as i'm 81 years old not as fast as i once was took me 2 1/2 hr. my exhaust was different than the one shown split pipe in back of resonator worked fine. Had to rework plastic under body panels before they lock on top. other wise looks good 115360
by: Richard07/05/2018
I watched the video before ordering. A must. I was able to see what I needed to find out before ordering. It was very helpful. I found out the wiring I had and was able to order the correct harness. It was sent very quickly. I opened the box and started . It took me (doing it alone) less then 1&1/2 hours from start to finish including wiring. It fit like a glove and I am very pleased with the quality of the produce and the information they provided on the video. PS: you may want to have not only the required sockets but open end/box wrenches as well as it helped me with the installation. Great product Thanks 530190
by: Dave11/08/2016
Product really is bolt-on, instructions were easy to follow. Instructions were easy to follow and they suggest using a WD-40 to help with removing the rubber hangers on the 2014 Santa Fe; definitely helps. I didn't have the specialty tool so I used channel locks to remove the hangers. Once all three hangers were removed I had to balance the muffler on my knee as I didn't trust the one or two remaining hangers. Suggest a jack stand to help support. As for mounting the actual bracket, if you have a socket wrench set with a number of different sizes it's a matter of having someone help you bold one side in place while you treat the bolts or balancing the other side on your knee. Needed to remove the driver's side plastic piece but did not need to do so on the passenger's side - save yourself some time. From start to finish, less than an hour, about an hour and 15 to clean up the tools used. This is not a difficult job and anyone with some hand tool savvy should be able to knock this out with general ease. 314865
Thank you for reaching out. My family and I use your product from time-to-time and are still very happy with it.All the best to you and yours over the coming holiday season.

Bolted right up very easy and instructions were right on. Looks good. Thank you. 114614
John,Nice install. Where did you find the little box to store your four pin plug? Im not a fan of the wire hanging.Thanks,Shawn
-- comment by: Shawn - 10/02/2014by: Ron R09/22/2015
Great video to prep me for doing the job, I used an axle Jack to support the muffler once the hangers were off. Needed some help when holding the hitch up to the frame, after that it was very easy. 227041
thanks for asking about the hitch, and wiring kit. Everything is working as it should, no complaints.
Ron R - 09/21/2016by: Jim S08/07/2016
eTrailer; Thank you. All went exactly as advertised and shown via your internal/YouTube videos. I installed C13152 on my 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe SPORT (2.4L). Per your internal video, I simply bent the bumper pins out of the way with a deep socket/pipe. I didn't even move the exhaust for the install. However, i'll probably have to move it when I torque the nuts. This hitch clears the stock bumper, which means it's lower than the exhaust tip. I wanted to use C13153; which is about 4" higher, ... basically, level with the exhaust. However, this fits (not 100% sure it fits the SPORT too) the GLS/Limited model, which has a removable cover to hide the hitch. If you can find replacement portion of the stock Sport bumper, I bet many would be interested in that option. I saw some old (2012) chats where Australian users cut a hole in their bumper. Ultimately, my towing needs are minor, so I went with the C13152. I'm sure i'll find the appropriate ball mount rise for my needs. 281194
Well ...My trailer was so rotten with non-functioning lights, that I didnt have a chance to test it mainly the wiring harness that ties to the stock trailer connections. On top of that, I moved to a new house where I cant store a trailer, so I sold it. My etrailer Curt hitch still needs to be broken in! Regardless, I still regard your company in high regard and recommend you anytime I hear of someone looking for a hitch.
Jim S - 12/13/2017by: Mark M.06/17/2014
I went on line to find the dealerships information on installing a trailer hitch on my 2013 SUV. While there I came across etrailer.com and started comparing the price for the hitch versus the dealerships price and it was several hundred of dollars difference. I looked and found a video showing exactly how to install the hitch and it showed that there were no bolts to remove from the vechile and where the bolts were to be installed the holes were already drilled into the frame of the truck. This was a 1 hour job and thats because I had never done it before. If I had to do this job now I could get the time down to 40 minutes at most. My one concern was the construction of the hitch and when I took it out of the box that concern went away. Very well constructed and the mounting bolts were top quality. The paper instructions matched the video that I watched. Great product and I would recommend you and do business with you again. 135896

I installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver onto a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. The dealership was going to charge $500.00 for a hitch receiver and $110.00 per hour for labor. I am a data analyst and work on a computer all day and have to real experience with tools. But reading the reviews gave me confidence I could install the hitch receiver myself, which I did. The installation took me ~1.5 hours. The installation video was very helpful. Doing the installation myself saved me a lot of money. The hitch fits like a glove. 388696
by: Craig s07/10/2014
Item and install-flawless. Was able to work around bumper guide pins. Video of install was perfect. Took under an hour on new sorento. I could probably do it in 30 minutes if I was in a race 140694
Everythings good. Thanks
Craig s - 07/20/2015 by: Jonathan04/29/2018
When purchasing this product I looked around at quite a few places, I couldn't be happier having chosen etrailer for my trailer hitch needs. I bought the whole package, installation could not have been easier and the towing compacity of this model well out performs it's competition. To top it off the look of this product attatched to my Hyundai Santa Fe Sport has a really great look. Etrailer is a wonderful website and I highly recommend them to anyone searching for trailer products. 502034

by: Michael L.05/27/2014
Great quality hitch. One of the best prices online. Very easy to install onto my brand new Hyundai Santa Fe Sport SUV. Just 4 bolts on each side, no welding necessary. Super fast shipping too. Package arrived within 3 days from the day I ordered it. Excellent email communication as well. Very pleased! :) 132632
Everything is going well. Hitch is rock solid. Thanks!
Michael L - 05/28/2015by: Gary H.12/09/2017
Fits perfectly on 2018 Santa Fe Sport. Watch the video for detailed instructions on a 2017 Santa Fe Sport (exactly the same). Took me about 90 minutes start to absolute finish with only jack stands. If you don't have a torque wrench, be aware the torque specs are pretty high - be sure to use a long ratchet or breaker bar and tighten like crazy. Works great with C58000 adapter and 37185 4/7 pole connector (see pictures). 458735
by: rondp206/16/2014
My install is for a 2014 KIA Sorento EX. First off the directions were dead on. Took me closer to 3 hours to do (not 30 minutes). I installed the electrical converter first then the hitch. My time includes everything from putting truck on jack stands to dropping it back on the pavement. I'm 60 years old and a little bit slower these days so I took my time (did I mention I did this all by myself). Removing and reinstalling the exhaust hangers was easier than I thought it was going to be. And the bumper guide pin did not get in my way. But there was a plastic pin hanging down on the passenger side just in front of the nut. I cut enough the get the socket over the nut and torque it down. I have ordered from eTrailer in the past and will definitely order from them in the future. 135744

The hitch was EXTREMELY easy to install. I work for a Hyundai dealership and our cost on the factory hitch was nearly 3 times as much as the Curt model. After comparing both side by side, I can honestly say that the OEM part is inflated only due to the fact that it has the manufacturer's logo on it. The install was exactly the same for this hitch as the OEM model, just at a fraction of the cost. With eTrailer's "How To" videos, anyone with some basic tools and ability to follow directions can do this install. While having a friend assisting you with holding the hitch to the frame is nice, it is definitely doable as a solo job. Thanks so much to the team at etrailer for the amazing price, customer service, & support. You made this WAY easier than it initially appeared! 387552
Thanks so much for the follow up! I’ve recommended many people to etrailer for their towing needs over the last year, not only due to the quality of products, but the customer service as well! I work at a Hyundai dealership and I can attest that the hitch setup is a PERFECT fit and a far better value than OEM at a 1/4 of the cost! Thank you guys for offering great prices, easy to follow instructional videos, & excellent customer support!
Panda - 06/04/2018by: Stephen J.06/03/2016
The hitch seems extremely sturdy. Installation instructions were good, the video even better. It was my own stupidity that made me take some time to realise there are three separate hangers for the exhaust that need to be released, to allow the exhaust to be moved sufficiently out of the way to allow fitting. Once I moved the exhaust, it was fine to fit. Note that the hitch is heavy, and without a board or raising the car, the installation work is pretty physical! I give the product 5 stars, and I wanted to give etrailer 5 stars as well for their excellent site, great videos, and strong follow up. However, despite all that they shipped the product several days after the order was placed, and so missed the expected delivery date by close to a week - which was irritating 256488
Its worked out great, no issues at all!
Stephen J - 06/03/2017by: Gene Redmond03/20/2014
The fit was perfect and the overall experience dealing with etrailer.com was outstanding. It took me 35 minutes to install the hitch. The process went with out an issue. I followed the included instructions for the hitch and they were accurate and complete. They offered a video, but I didn't need it. Wonderful experience dealing with this company, will use them in the future 121451

I received my order in one week. Installation went very smooth. The instruction sheets were excellent with clear pictures and diagrams. Quality fit and finish on this product was great. I'm very satisfied. 193313

Ken - 06/17/2016by: Bruce03/09/2017
I needed a hitch for my 2017 Santa Fe Sport. I went to a local hitch installer and they quoted me $470 (installed). I found the exact same Curt hitch and wiring harness at etrailer for around $170. After reading through the instructions and watching the videos, I figured I would give it a shot. Thanks to the instructions and videos, my brother and I were able to install both the hitch and the wiring harness in about 40 minutes. I figure if you can change a tire, you can probably install this hitch yourself, it is that easy. Of course, that has a lot to do with the fact that all the holes are pre-drilled/threaded. And, my vehicle does have the two pack, so wiring was easy. Hitch looks great, and I saved about $300 over having it installed. 350367
by: David F11/18/2016
Easily installed took 30 min by myself. I can write all day but it was cheap it was delivered fast i did it myself and it works. Looks great as well. 317770
by: Barry T.04/14/2015
Wow, this item is awesome! The quality of this product is amazing. With two of us, we had the hitch installed in about thirty minutes, including removal of spare tire, plastic covers, and releasing muffler. Installation went like your videos show! I don't think you could make the install any easier. I received all items in one box, which was undamaged. The ends of the hitch did not protrude the box. Although mine arrived in mint condition, I would suggest a little bubble wrap on the ends of the hitch to eliminate any possible nicks or scratches. You guys did an awesome job on packaging my products. Your web site is very helpful with all the info and video tutorials. etrailer.com is the place to order from! 185255

This hitch bolted right up to my 2013 Santa Fe. No issues. The instructions were detailed down to every detail. This hitch looks very good on my Santa Fe. It is tucked very nicely under the vehicle. 94773
Still very satisfied.
Bobby W - 08/14/2014by: John F07/15/2017
Great product. Better price! Delivered early (five days vice seven). I must enjoy punishment but I installed it that night in my garage (with no lift or anything under the SUV). It was kind of tight but I managed even that, hardest part was applying the required torque on the larger bolts (.5" I think at 110 ft-lbs), but managed. The driver side facia panel that is removed in the beginning required trimming so I could engage one of the clip on points due to the height of the curve from the carriage bolt heads that are now installed. Easy enough to trim with a good box cutter; however, you couldn't fully engage the recessed clip on point with out trimming some of the plastic away. 406138

VERY NICE WORKMANSHIP, THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PICTURES WERE EXACT. WE WILL USE THE HITCH FOR A LUGAGE CARRIER. WILL RECOMMEND ETRAILER TO OTHERS. THANK YOU. 230561
great product and dealing with you
ALAN H - 10/22/2016by: Jordan05/31/2016
The hitch itself is excellent and easy to install. Unfortunately because of the way my Kia Sorento is built, the hitch aligned my trailer rack to be next to the car's muffler, and some of the luggage that had been placed in front (mistakenly) had been burned slightly. All we had to do was rearrange some luggage and leave the space in front of the muffler free of anything that can be burned. Overall I'm very satisfied with my product and look forward to using it again. 254548

The 2014 Sorento SX does not have the covers under the right and left sides of the vehicle as shown in the installation video and instructions. Having checked under other SX's and other models at the dealer lot the other models do have panels which must be removed. The installation video showed an interference between the hitch and what serves as a plastic nut for a screw which protrudes from the undedrside of the vehicle on one side. I had an interference with one of these on BOTH sides of the vehicle which had to be ground back as shown in the video. Though not a product defect I found getting to the nuts to correctly torque them was diffficult. 117966
by: William03/18/2018
Quality of product is excellent. Very tight fitting unit. Videos were very good and very helpful. Would have liked in the instructions to make it clear that both bumper alignment pins need to be moved, not just maybe the one on the passenger side, it has to be moved. Also would have liked to have seen how the most forward exhaust system rubber mount was disconnected. I'm sure there is a better way to do it than I did, LOL, it was a real hassle. 486378
by: Kevin H.07/15/2013
I was a little hesitant, being 63 years old and messing with my week old Kia Sorento......I ordered the hitch on Monday, and received it that Friday. Although it took me about 1 1/2 hours, I am extremely pleased with the result. The instructions were thorough. The only problem I had was putting in the lower bolts on the drivers' side. If I had another person to help me, it would not have taken as long, and I wouldn't be as sore as I was the next day. I will recommend e trailer to anyone wanting to add a hitch to their vehicle. My only regret was that I didn't purchase the wiring at the same time....oh well, I'll get to that later. 89616

Hitch for our 2015 Kia,Sorento was sent very quickly,in fact much quicker than expected,by 3 days. Packaged very well,little to no damage to the shipping box,so the hitch was'nt scratched. All hardware was packaged/attached to hitch. Installation instructions were step by step easy to understand and in color!!! I had the install done by a local service garage,I just did not want to lay on the ground,they took their time,maybe just a little more than a half hour. All in all very satisfied, and if I needed another hitch I'd go directly to etrailer Good prices and excellent service.What else could you ask for?!! 439213

My second purchase of this hitch. 2011 and 2015 Kia Sorento SX. Great quality and really easy to install. Looks great as it doesn't hang down looking like a bad afterthought. Best suggestion is to get the brush to clean out the threaded mounting holes in the frame. Lots of dirt and sand gets in and is very difficult to clean enough to thread in bolts. Instructions are very clear. On my second hitch I treated the hell out of the entire hitch before mounting with NuFinish for as much protection from road elements, Upstate NY, as possible and has held up great. If you get this product you will not be disappointed. 476218

Bought the Curt Hitch and harness, Great product, great price, easy to install especially with their videos, fit great, fast shipping. 4 prong connector cable on wire harness could have been about 3 inches longer for my application as I mounted the module under the side cover as per video. Would have liked a mounting bracket on the hitch itself for the 4 prong trailer connection bracket. Came one day earlier than expected, but ups must have handled it pretty rough as the two outer ends of the hitch had punched holes through the box and scraped the ends. etrailer was great, will buy again and recommend. 498203

I just wanted to say that it's been over a year since I purchased this hitch receiver. It has held up really well. The install was incredibly easy from the instructions and the video. Honestly, my biggest challenge was cleaning the rust out of the threads of my vehicle's undercarriage. We use this thing all the time for our bike rack and cargo rack. I have no doubt it would work well in any other scenario that it is meant for, with regard to towing. I would definitely purchase from etrailer again. I probably saved over $500 by purchasing from them and doing this myself. It took me less than an hour. 574858

Good recommendations and advice given at the time of purchase...Parts came neatly and securely packaged in a very timely manner....Installation was cut and dry and plug and play...no problems encountered and a very smooth install....Good job with the install videos but if I could make a suggestion: If an installation video is available on line or there are special instructions for installation or care of the product....that they be included on a highly visible (fluorescent paper) in the packaging...I was not aware of the instructions/video until after the install and receiving this review request....Thanks 341860

Bought this to stick on my wife's Kia so we could tow a small trailer for camping gear and haul bikes to the park. Installation took 1 hour. You only need to take 2 of the 3 exhaust hangers off as there is enough wiggle room to install. No need to uninstall the spare tire, just drop it to the ground. An extra set of hands to life the hitch into place would be nice but not needed. I threaded one bolt in on one side and then used a jack stand to hold the other end while I bolted it up. I had to use a screw driver to pull the hitch over so the bolt could go in but other than that, very easy install. 442932

Thanks for the great website. Found my application fast and was confident I would receive the correct products. Shipping was very fast. Installing the Curt Hitch and wiring harness could not have been easier. Everything fit perfectly and the job was completed fast. Great instructions and videos if needed. I’m a return customer and will always use and recommend etrailer to my friends. Thanks again. 470474

I purchased this hitch for my wife's vehicle to pull my boat on vacation. The hitch was delivered quickly along with the wiring harness for the lights. I was able to install everything pretty quickly and everything performed as it should, All hardware was there and the directions were very clear and easy to follow. After having the product for about a year, everything is still in good shape, the paint is all still there, no rust (we live in MN so there is plenty of salt on the roads). I am very pleased with the product and would not hesitate to buy another item through etrailer. 285315

Product arrived in no time after I ordered it. Free shipping was a plus. It was very easy to install with no aid of a lift rack and only the wife to assist me. I had watched installation videos and they helped a bunch. Only problem was encountered on the passenger side. There is a seam where the body is put together and the hitch was hitting it. It could be that I did not have hitch going up exactly level. The bolts matched alright so it was not a big deal. This is the first time that I have used your company but plan to again and again. Highly recommend to everyone. 228061
