Draw-Tite Tested Tough
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.

2008 Saturn Vue
This hitch was perfect for what we wanted to do (haul our bikes around). The box it arrived in was slightly damaged, but there wasn't any damage to the hitch inside. The required hardware were well-secured inside the 2" receiver. The instructions on the website were basic but accurate. Like others have said, the packaged instructions only mention two connectors for the exhaust system (when there are actually three), but it's not a big deal. The installation video is spot-on, and I recommend viewing it before you start (especially if this is your first hitch installation). The installation can be a little cramped, but this isn't the faculty of the hitch or eTrailer. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase, the price, the speed of shipping, and the customer service from eTrailer.

Found your site by googling ‘trailer hitch’. Entered car make, model and year. Found my hitch, ordered, it arrived two days later, followed installation instructions...done. I found installation very simple and it took me about a half hour. I used car ramps to elevate the rear end a bit. Very nice hitch, works great. Already passed your site info to two others.

This hitch has worked very well for the past year. I tow a 5 by 8 foot trailer with it. No issues. The receiver pushes in and pulls out very easy. Great product. I installed it myself. Very easy. I recommend this hitch.

Great product and pretty simple install. You will need to drop the exhaust to make installation easier. Used tape on the box end of my wrench to hold the nuts in place to make the tightest areas easier to get to and aid with the install. Total install took less than 40 minutes. It's solid and looks good. Used with available wiring kit from etrailer( also crazy, easy to install) and you are ready to haul.

I was amazed at how easy the installation was. The holes lined up perfectly and I was able to hold one end of the hitch up with a leg and the other with a forearm to align the holes as I was doing this solo. It would definitely be easier on lift with another person. I did this laying on the ground without the vehicle jacked up. The only thing I found wrong in the instructions was that it indicated that you needed to remove 2 rubber mounting donuts to lower the exhaust and I had to remove 3. Took an extra 30 seconds. I did spray some lube on the rubber mounts before removing them. Also keep in mind that the washers are concave and should be installed so that the washer smashes against the frame. I didn't realize this until I had all of the bolts tightened but before I torqued them, so I had to take 2 of them back out and flip the washers. This job took me less than an hour including removing the 2 bolts and switching the washers and torquing all 4 bolts. I forgot to order the wiring harness as well so don't forget that if you are towing a trailer. Tom

2008 Saturn Vue
This hitch fit my wifes 08 Saturn Vue like a glove. Order the hitch on a Wednesday and it showed up the following Tuesday, Monday was a holiday.The box wasn't Free shipping too. I installed the hitch in 45 minutes(by myself) and wiring took 3 hours. Took my time so not to have to do it twice. Gotta love the videos that walk you through it. The only thinking I had to do was where to run the power wire under the vehicle to the front. Now I can tow the jetski to Flathead and not have to drive my gas hog truck!

Fit from left to right of the trailer hitch was perfect. Installation video was helpful, but not everyone has a lift. Mine had to be done on the ground. Process was not really that much different, tho. Bolts did not fit the pre-drilled holes thread very well. Even after deburring the holes and cleaning them, I had to impact that bolts in with a high cfm impact gun to get them to seat all the way. I hope they never have to come out. Other than those few details, I'm extremely happy with the fit and look if the hitch, as well as the pre-wired harness.

great looking product and well hidden other than the receiver. however do not pay attention to the "MAY BE's", you must lower the exhaust to even get the hitch to fit in above the muffler! 3- rubber slip hangers and she's ready to fit into place & bolt up. also leave the hangers off so you can torque the bolts to the frame. maybe a 1- hour job for most people

Hitch is excellent quality. The bolts that were included were the wrong size.
Comments
The bolts included with the hitch should have been M12 x 1.25 x 35. If the bolts received are not the correct size, we will certainly send you the correct replacements. This being said, its actually extremely rare that the wrong size bolts are sent out. A much more likely occurrence is that the nuts that are welded into the receiver to receive the bolts have built up with road grime and corrosion over the years, making it difficult to get the bolts started. This is especially common on vehicles used in the rust belt where ice-melting chemicals are used on the roads in the winter. The best way to clean those threads out would be to use a 12mm x 1.75 thread tap. You should be able to find one at your local hardware store.

Hitch fit well and looks good on our Saturn Vue. The only hiccup during installation was that there were actually rubber four isolators that we had to remove (instead of the three shown on the video) to get the muffler to drop down enough to slide the hitch in.

Easy install. The video walks you through what to do. Best to have two people for the install just because it can be hard to bolt up. Fit great and looks awesome, can hardly tell its there.

One of the Best online ordering experience I have ever had the pleasure doing. Barry handled the transition from the beginning till the end and not knowing much about what I was talking about,he walked me though the entire process. It says a lot about a company when their employees take such pride and knowledge in their job performance. Again it was my first time working with your company and it definitely wont be the last Thank you so much for all the help the great product and the fast delivery

product fit as advertised, had some paint scraped off during shipping, but was easy to repair before installation. instructions are very good, the most difficult part was getting rust scale out of the nuts in the frame, after that piece of cake!

- Parts Needed to Tow a 2,200 lb GVWR Trailer with a 2009 Saturn Vue Whenever you need specifications on your vehicle, especially when it comes to weight capacity, the best place to go is straight to the owner's manual. I looked up an online version of the manual for your 2009 Saturn Vue and found on page 4-37 that if you have a 2.4L engine then your max trailer weight is 1,500 lbs. If you have the 3.5L or 3.6L engine then your max trailer weight is 3,500 lbs. Since the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) of your River Rockwood Freedom 1640 looks to be...
view full answer... - Which Hitch Pin For Trailer Hitch on 2008 Saturn VueI'm not certain what you mean by carriage rack, are you speaking of the hitch pin that's used to hold a draw bar or hitch mounted accessory in place? If you have a Class I or II hitch with the 1-1/4 by 1-1/4 inch receiver opening, you'd use a 1/2 inch hitch pin like # PC2 or # e98879 for a locking pin. If you have a Class III hitch with the 2 x 2 inch receiver opening you'd use a 5/8 inch pin like # PC3 or # e98882 for a locking version. I've linked you to an FAQ article that explains...

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2014 Chevy Captiva SportHitch fits are very specific for vehicles. You're lucky if you can use the same hitch on different years of the same model so across vehicle manufacturers wouldn't work. You'll have to with a new hitch for your 2014 Chevy Captiva Sport. For that the best option is the Draw Tite hitch part # 75556 which is a confirmed fit, has a 2 inch opening, and has a concealed crosstube which will keep most of the hitch out of sight. I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

The only thing that comes with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75556 is the trailer hitch itself and the hardware needed for installation on your 2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport. For a trailer wiring kit I recommend the Curt T-Connector # C56257. This plugs into the wiring behind your tail lights and just needs the wire run to the battery to power the trailer lights. This gives you a 4-Way flat connector for basic trailer lighting functions. To complete...

I would recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Receiver, part # 75556. The hitch itself is rated for 4000 lbs, but you will still be limited by the 3500 lb vehicle rating.

When choosing a weight distribution system you will need to go by the tongue weight of the trailer when loaded and ready to tow and then add the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. But, do not exceed the tongue weight rating when used with weight distribution for the hitch. A system rated for 200 to...
