Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

Fully welded vehicle trailer hitch is strong and durable. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. The combination of an e-coat base and a powder coat finish provides excellent rust protection.DrawTite hitch for my Honda C-RV was the best combination for ground clearance, tow GVWR, vertical weight specs and a nice little tab to mount the electrical plug. It was very easy to install, etrailer had the best price with no shipping cost, and I ordered it on 7/11 and received it on 7/17.
Jeff F - 07/20/2021Well made, good looking hitch that was very easy to install. Total time to install was about an hour. Despite several attempts to do it on my own I did need an extra set of hands to hold the hitch while I got the first bolt in place. Video instructions were perfect. Exactly what I was looking for to attach a hitch mounted bike rack on my Honda CR-V. Saved me several hundred dollars from having a dealership or [rental trailer company] install it. Definitely recommend!

I installed this hitch on a Honda CR-V to tow an aluminum 4 x 8 flat bed trailer. This hitch has more capacity than needed, but I wanted a little overkill. That means that it’s heavier and I was concerned that at 82 I would have trouble with the installation. It was not a problem and I installed the hitch myself with no help. The excellent instructions were a big help. There were no missing parts. I have used it several times and it works well.
I could not be more pleased with this trailer hitch! All the necessary hardware was included, the directions were concise but sufficient, and the installation went without a hitch, because that hitch is now securely attached to my Honda CR-V. The trickiest part was figuring out for the first time how to remove the exhaust pipe from its hangers, but some WD-40 and a flathead screwdriver for leverage worked just fine. If you have someone else around to help hold it in place while threading the bolts, it'll be easier. I managed to prop the hitch up and rest it on my legs while fastening it, and I'm none worse for the wear. I'm stoked to once again be able to use my bike rack and hit the trails!
Nathan - 11/23/2018The hitch was installed as described. The instructions to install the hitch were easy to understand and follow. It is build strong and funtional.
I'm excited that this was a perfect fit and only took about 30 minutes to install!
Carlos - 02/14/2022We recently purchased a trailer hitch for our 2011 Honda CRV. The hitch we purchased from etrailer.com is well built / very substantial unit and was a breeze to install. The only thing is when it arrived, one of the hitch ends broke through the end of the box and was not protected. Thankfully the hitch end wasn't damaged. I highly recommend this product and purchasing through etrailer.com
Jeff A - 10/05/2015This product fit my 2011 Honda CRV perfectly. Bolted right on. Video on You Tube was easy to follow and understand. Installed in about 30 min. Hauled about 500lbs trailer from Atlanta to Ft Myers without issue right after installing. Only thing I wished I also bought was the ball to go with it, but found what I needed at the Home Depot. Product was delivered fast without extra cost. Very pleased and would highly recommend this product and etrailer.com again.
The function of the hitch is great! Installation is fairly easy and they have good instructions. The only reason it doesn’t get five stars is because the paint was chipping when I got it so I needed to get it sandblasted and powder coated. Luckily I have friends who do that for cheap. Others may not be so lucky.
This entire experience was great. First it was easy to find the right hitch (75547) for my 2007 Honda CRV on the website, then the installation video gave me a realistic idea of what it was going to take for me to install it. When I ordered the hitch came quickly. The installation process went exactly like the video. Using the spray lubricant on the rubber muffler mounts was a great tip. Be sure to use a torque wrench (I had to borrow a friend's). I was amazed how much more I had to tighten the bolts before the torque wrench "clicked." Now my wife and I can load our bikes on our new "trailer hitch" mounted bike rack without muscling them up on the roof the way we've been doing for 20 years! The only negative was that one arm of the hitch punched through the shipping box it arrived in. I was worried some of the hardware might have fallen out. Turns out all the hardware is taped inside the 2" hitch opening before shipment, so everything was there. Thanks.
It fit my 2010 Honda CRV perfectly. The etrailer installation videos were very helpful. I couldn't get the hitch receiver bolts to start in the frame weld nuts even after repeated spraying with penetrating oil and scrubbing with a nylon brush. I was about to give up. I checked e-trailer again and I found a video for cleaning corroded weld nuts with a battery terminal wire brush. I was skeptical it would work but after careful twisting in the weld nuts I was able to clean the weld nuts without damaging the threads. Great tip!
This hitch was essentially plug and play on my 2007 Honda CRV. I would highly recommend. We have had this hitch for over a year now mainly being used to transport mountain bikes. It does the job! The customer experience at etrailer.com is one where I would highly recommend to anyone that needs a trailer hitch. Thanks etrailer!
Hitch fit perfectly to my 07 Honda CRV and very easy to install. I recommend using an air or electric impact to screw the hitch to the vehicle frame. Holes lined up perfectly.
Marshall S - 10/28/2021Estimated delivery was off by a day, but that isn't so bad considering the times we live in. The shipping box had multiple rips/tears in it and there were some paint scrapes on the hitch itself. Seems like it was tossed around by for fun? Overall I think it will workout well. Planning on installing shortly.
Sierra K - 11/12/2021Love this hitch! Went in in about an hour with the help of my friend, his tools & knowledge. Already have my bike rack on it and plan to use the chain attachments (one of the reasons I bought this hitch) to anchor my paddleboard in the back!
Hitch took over a week to get. It arrived on my door stoop with one end sticking out of the box. However, it was not bent or damaged. I installed it in about an hour. I installed it on a 2011 Honda CR-V LX. I had to lower the muffler by removing the hanger bars from the rubber grommets to get access to the weld nuts on the right side of the vehicle. There wasn't any rust on the frame or weld nuts, but I did clean out the weldnut threads by running a tap through them. Then threaded in the four M10 bolts by hand, and then attached the 3/8" U-bolt. I hand tightened all the bolts to make sure the hitch was aligned. Then I torqued all the bolts and U-bolt nuts to specifications. I re-attached the muffler hangers into the rubber grommets and it was done.
Mike - 07/27/2015Excellent quality hitch for our Honda CR-V at a very good price. Very impressed with the etrailer team! Order was processed promptly, email provided with link for tracking delivery, and free shipment. The information and videos of the install provided by etrailer were very helpful also. Thanks!
Hitch arrived as described and included hardware was good quality.
Received the Hitch quickly and safely. Item as described and very easy to install after watching the great instructional video provided by etrailer. This is the 2nd hitch I've purchased from them and will continue to do so when needed. Great company to buy from.
Awesome. I chose this hitch after watching several installation videos of various products. This was easy to install, with no special tools required. Saved a lot of $'s with this product. Our use will be for a bike rack, which works great. Hitch is well hidden bike rack is not on the vehicle. Will definitely purchase another hitch from etrailer when we have a new car.
I received the package on Monday but only had the time to open it. I installed it this morning and it took me an hour and a half. I started with a prayer, as always, and it was very straightforward from there. I also viewed the youtube instructions a few times. That was very helpful. I backed my vehicle onto a pair of steel car ramps to get more room to maneuver. Per instructions I took the exhaust off its hangers and with the help of a 2-ton trolley jack I lifted the hitch into the proper height and loosely fastened the 4 bolts. I installed the U bolt last and tightened the 4 bolts one at a time. I have nothing but sincere appreciation for the manufacture of the product. The holes are precise and there was no fighting it to make everything fit. If only everything was made this way! I had to do it today. Tomorrow I turn 65 and I intend to stay greaseless and not crawling under a car! Thank you so much. The delivery was quick and the product is excellent. I am enclosing some pictures. I should have taken some while I was working on it.
I required a hitch for my car back in February 2013 from etrailer and was amazed by all the wonderful help I received. My concern was ordering the wrong hitch but you took me by the hand and guided me right through it. Shipping was very quick and it was delivered even placed in my garage. I have told all my friends about my wonderful experience and if I need further items of this nature I will return to etrailer. I'm a 100% satisfied customer. Thank you so much.
Love it that it was so easy to put on! It carries my bike rack awesomely!
Donna R - 08/31/2021etrailer delivered the the hitch 2 days before they said it would be deliered. When it came the box was destroyed and the hitch was sticking out of the box in two places. The powder coating was scraped off in many spots. when I called customer service (Theresa), she said they would issue me a paint credit for Rustoleum (she uses it her hitch) that was kind of her. She also assisted me in figuring out whether the M10 bolts were the correct bolts and then coached me how to clean out and tap the weld=nuts on the car so the bolts could thread in. The hitch is much heavier and solid than I anticipated (or needed) but it is now installed on my daughters car and it fits the bike rack well.
I use this for my Kuat NV 2” bike rack. Been using it for a year straight, thru snow and rain and sand and salt. Made sure to check bolt torque after about 300 miles. No complaints, easy install, etrailer had it for much cheaper than anywhere else, just buy it!
