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.

This is the second time I have ordered from etrailer and both experiences have been extremely positive. First, not having to deal with UHaul is EVERYTHING. UHaul has been repeatedly unreliable, both in getting the hitch we needed on time and on even being there for scheduled appointments. etrailer has taken this stress off of us. Now, we can get the product we need, in a timely manner (it only took us three days to get the part!) and have our local car repair/service guy install it. Thank you etrailer!

Took a rookie about 1.5 hours to install. Only took that long as we doubled checked everything to make sure no mistake was made.

After ordering another hitch for another vehicle, we are extremely satisfied with etrailer.com. We have bought two hitches (for 2 separate vehicles) along with a cargo basket. We are extremely happy with etrailers.com customer service as well as fast delivery of our products.

Missing my hitch that I paid for
by: Adam11/04/2019
2020 Ford Explorer
The 3 stars is because I read that I can't use my WDH, which is a first for me...and because it took me over 4 hours to install this hitch!
OK, so I've installed probably 15 hitch's on trucks and SUV's in the past 20 years, and this was, by far, the most challenging. Note: the tech support at etrailer was great though, I actually could talk to someone on a Sunday afternoon...Thank you! And is the main reason I chose to pay a little more and buy from etrailer.
Why this was so challenging is because several, hard to reach panels and fasteners, had to be removed, and cut and fabricated. Lowering the exhaust turned out to be the easiest part, with just a little simple green on the rubber mount, so they could slide easily out. The exhaust heat shields could not be full removed without the car being on a lift, they could only be slid to the side. So I had to wedge a grinder in there with a slicer wheel to cut the hole for it to clear the new carriage bolts when put back in place. I tried the snips they recommend, but that metal is way to thick, and I couldn't get the correct angles to get leverage on the snip handles. Then there's the issue of fishing the carriage bolt and spacers down the vehicle frame which kept getting hung up somewhere, so I ended up just using a dremmel and an abrasive wheel to widen the rear mounting holes. Then getting the hitch in place takes two strong guys, because it seriously has to be wedged and tucked under the bumper cover just right. Finally cutting the slot on the bottom of the bumper cover/fascia is also tricky, because if you don't cut it just right, there will be a bulge on one side of the bumper bottom. I'd suggest to etrailer, they include a cutting template that could be aligned with the inner edge. After everything went back together, the heat shields didn't sit as flat because they are on top of the hitch now, and were rubbing on the exhaust, so I had to bend the heat shield edges in so they don't hit the exhaust. I ended up using a grinder, dremmel, impact wrench, cut-out tool, three different extensions, and a handful of other tools.
I hope this helps all those attempting to do this yourself...

First of all it was a pleasure dealing with etrailer, I received my Draw -Tite-Max-Frame trailer hitch receiver within a week of ordering. The unit is solid, well constructed and fairly easy to mount.

Really simple to install. No issues other than needing a hand for about 2min to install hitch. A hole saw is a must and I used tape to cut out facia for clearance for the hitch.
by: Craig 12/31/2019

It fit but you have to do a lot of cutting and drop the exhaust. Note the bolts they provide to mount the hitch need to be cut and ground down on a 2020 Explorer or the mufflers on both sides will rattle and vibrate thru the SUV making a great noise!!!

2020 Ford Explorer
Just got my new hitch. During quarantine I am going to install this on my car. This is my second one of these hitches. Pretty easy to bolt on (from what I remember a handful of years ago on my other car). Can't wait to get this on so I can take my bike with me.
Also, this came fast. Ordered Monday and here today.

Very good quality hitch. Installed it myself in a couple hours. All went well . The instructions were spot on. Fit my 2020 Explorer like a glove. Great doing business with etrailer.

Hitch for my 2020 Explorer shipped immediately, was well made, and included the wiring. The cost for this hitch and the installation was less than the factory hitch, and it is does not require having to pull off a section of the rear bumper fascia every time you want to install the hitch.

See what our Experts say about this Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch
- Why Can the Draw-Tite Max-Hitch 76320 For a 2020 Ford Explorer Not Be Used With a WDHCorrect, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76320 which is a fit for a 2020 Ford Explorer does not allow for a weight distribution system to be used. I spoke with my contact at Draw-Tite and they informed me that the reasoning behind this has to do with the drop tube which simply cannot withstand the added stress from a weight distribution system. I looked in the owner's manual for a 2020 Ford Explorer and saw that a weight distribution system is not required so I would...
view full answer... - Recommended Ways To Stop Rattling After Installing Hitch on 2020 Ford ExplorerI took a look at the instructions for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76320 and I do not feel comfortable saying to just remove the heat shield because it is a large panel of heat shield compared to some other installs. I do recommend to try to figure out where the rattling is coming from first. It is a better idea to trim the heat shield in the spot where it is coming into contact with the hitch to prevent them from rattling against one another. Another common reason...

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2020 Ford Explorer That Allows Use of Hands Free LiftgateThe trailer hitch receiver that will work with your 2020 Ford Explorer, and will let you keep on using your hands free liftgate sensor is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76320. What you may need to do is simply kick your foot to one side of the receiver portion of the hitch as opposed to directly in the center, but the feature will absolutely still work. Along with the Draw-Tite hitch, if you plan on towing with your 2020 Ford Explorer, you'll need a wiring harness, the T-One Vehicle Wiring...
view full answer... - Trailer Wiring and Hitch for 2020 Ford Explorer without Tow PackageSince your 2020 Ford Explorer does not have the factory towing package the trailer wiring harness you'll need is the Tekonsha part # 118599 which plugs inline with the taillights of the vehicle to give you a 4-way. This would work great with the mostly hidden Class III Draw Tite hitch part # 76320 that you are considering. I attached install videos for both the hitch and the wiring for you to check out as well.

If you also need trailer wiring we have the Tekonsha kit part # 118599 as well which installs easily and has a very reliable converter box as well.

If you are looking for a wiring harness for your 2020 Ford Explorer I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # 118599.

The only Class III hitch available (as of 12/26/2019) is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76320 which is a concealed cross tube design. The only portion of the hitch that is visible once installed is the receiver square so there is some fascia trimming required to install it. The installation requires trimming a 3.25" x 5" square into the rear fascia for...

- Trailer Hitch Fit for 2020 Ford Explorer and Fascia Trimming Needed to InstallThere is a trailer hitch that fits a 2020 Ford Explorer, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76320, which is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver, 6,000 lb towing capacity and 900 lb tongue weight capacity. As you can see from the cut outs I added from the linked installation manual, this hitch will rest neatly underneath your Explorer's bumper to retain its clean appearance, but some slight fascia trimming is required. Just a 3-1/4" x 5" section needs to be trimmed in order for the...

- Recommended Installer for Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch on a 2020 Ford ExplorerThe Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76320 is indeed a confirm fit for a 2020 Ford Explorer. If you will be having the hitch installed for you then you can expect to pay around one hour to one and half hours of the shop's labor rate. The shop's labor rate can vary but is usually around one-hundred dollars per hour. In regards to a recommended installer, we suggest a local rv dealer with service center as they will be most experienced with these types of installs but most...
view full answer... - Will Trailer Hitch for 2020 Ford Explorer Interfere With Hands Free Liftgate SensorsAccording to Draw-Tite, their # 76320 hitch will not prevent the liftgate sensors from sensing movement. However, the sensors behind the center of the bumper will not work once the hitch is installed. This means you'll need to wave your foot under the vehicle a few inches left or right of center in order for the sensors to pick up the movement. If you'll be towing, you'll need a few other items to complete your towing system, a trailer wiring harness, part # 118599. You'll also need a...

The Draw-Tite hitch is a Class III hitch will give you plenty of options for bike racks. The hitch is a bolt on hitch that doesn't require drilling but require a bit of fascia trimming. The best thing about this hitch is it's concealed cross tube design. The only portion of the hitch that will be visible after installation is the receiver portion so it has a nice sleek look on...

- Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2020 Ford ExplorerI recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # CU78FR for a 2020 Ford Explorer. I features a custom bolt-on fit with no drilling or welding required. It also has a hidden design which means only the receiver tube will be shown therefore you get the best overall install look and most ground clearance. It also will still allow for the use of a hand free liftgate feature if present. The same can all be said for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76320 as well as they...

This receiver will require no drilling into your frame as it uses factory holes for mounting to your frame. It has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 900lbs and maximum trailer capacity of 6,000lbs. Be sure to not exceed any weight ratings given by Ford for your Explorer. The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118599 will give you a 4-way flat connector for controlling the lighting on...

That said, both are very minor and really won't have an affect on the vehicle at all. The Draw-Tite does require slightly less as you pointed out. If you want to try altering the trimming and installation of the heat shield I'm sure this won't cause any serious issues but in the end we cannot recommend veering...

- What is the Hitch with the Highest Weight Rating for My 2022 Ford Explorer?The highest weight capacity hitch we carry for your 2022 Ford Explorer is the Draw-Tite - 2" # 76320. Not only does the Draw-Tite give you 900 pounds of maximum tongue weight and 6,000 pounds of gross trailer weight capacity, it also involves an easy, no-drill installation with all hardware included. It is important to note that you will be limited to the weight capacity of your lowest component (i.e., the hitch, ball mount, or vehicle weight rating). To complete the setup, I recommend...

This means that the hitch can be completely invisible when not being used.

This will give you the 4-way and 7-way at the rear for use with most trailers out there. The Curt No-Drill Bracket for 7-Way Round Trailer Connector Mounting Bracket part # C57202 will give you a great way to connect your 7-way without any drilling.
