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.
Features:
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.

very simple installation, two screws on each side.. undo light, and click in connetions. a year later and no problems whatsoever
Great product, was a little tougher to install but still wasn't bad and was worth the money
Great product at a great price and delivered in only three days...AWSOME !!
I just bought a used 2010 Ford Flex and it came with this hitch on it. Very, very nice quality and fits perfectly. Definitely recommended!
Sturdy and Nice unit . Easily installed on the Ford Flex.
VERY HAPPY WITH EVERYTHING.IT TOOK ME ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO INSTALL AND IT IS VERY WELL BUILT.THANKS,DALE
Much easier to install than I thought it was going to be. I didn't even have to drop the exhaust. The wife helped me lift it into position on the driveway.
Excellent!
Haven't had a chance to install the hitch yet but was blown away at how fast it was shipped and how well the transaction was handled.
I am 65 and it took me only 40 min for both the hitch and wiring!!
Great hitch and easy to install, took about 20-25 minutes to install alone. Tucks in high and tight to the rear valance and does not extend past the bumper when installed.
Fit perfectly. Easy to install. On-line videos really helped with a quick installation.
I had to change my order mid-stream due to delay in ability to get one part. etrailer made it seamless and got me the order on time.
Not as clean as a Ford OEM hitch, but for the price this hitch mounted very easily and still looks good! Etrailer was very quick with shipping.
Thanks!
This is the third time I have ordered frometrailer.com. Every time the hitch has arrived on or before it was scheduled, in perfect condition, and the part was exactly as described. I was able to install this hitch in 15 minutes. It looks great and fits perfectly.
Talk about a quick response. I ordered the Draw-Tite 75679 on a
Wednesday, received it Friday, and had it installed in 20 minutes
on Monday. I chose this receiver because it specifically fit my
2010 Ford Flex without drilling additional holes or making any
modifications. Another big plus was the installation video I was
able to review, Flex specific. I'm impressed all around.
have not attached the product yet. however this is my second hitch from e-trailer and all companys that sell products on-line should model themselves off of e-trailer. From purchasing the products, tracking and delivery you are the best!
Deliver time was great. 40 minutes to install the first 3 screws. 20 minutes to try and figure out why the 4th screw hole didn't line up. 20 minutes on phone with customer support, they told me to hitch may have flexed during shipment and to place it in a vice (or between my steps) and bend it. Hitch was so close to my gas tank that it was digging in to it. I couldn’t even get a piece of paper between the tank and hitch. Customer support said that this was ok . Another hour figuring out how to get the holes to line up and the frame to fit without hitting the gas tank. This would have been an easy install if the screw holes lined up.
Ordered the trailer hitch on Saturday and it arrived on Wednesday in great shape.(free shipping) It took me about an hour to install the hitch including the wiring harness. This was the first time I had put a hitch on my vehicle and it couldn't have been easier. I did have some help from my neighbor because it is easier with two people lining up the bolts. I highly recommend etrailer.
This Hitch is great. Etrailer sent it to me with in a week, it was well packaged and all the parts were sealed nicely. The instructions are a little sparse, but I had already studied the online help and didn't really need them. Installation took all of 20-30 minutes. Only needed to remove rear exhaust hanger to get hitch in place. Hitch and exhaust use same mounting holes.
Fit and finish was very impressive on our 2009 Flex SE. You hardly see the hitch hanging out under the bumper. The bolt holes on the muffler side are elongated to make installation easier which was nice, and the other side has a little give as well. Only thing that was difficult was the hardware was extremely tight and difficult to ratchet down in the frames weld nuts on the side opposite the muffler. I had to use a breaker bar to install them as they are so tight. Nothing was stripped or anything like that, its just the tolerance with the weld nuts and the included bolts is so tight that using a regular ratchet would have been very difficult. Make sure to torque them down too. I haven't used it for anything but a hitch bicycle rack yet, but plan on towing my fathers boat which weighs approximately 2700 lbs with the trailer.
Trailer hitch was relatively easy to install. However, the driver side rear bolt hole was a millimeter off center. Had to stretch the hole with a file to line up correctly.
It took me about two hours to install the trailer hitch by my self. A second person is really needed. The only problem I had is you have to start the driver side first or the bolt holes don't line up. It's a really tight fit against the cargo compartment.
Once you get it on it is a perfect
Overall it I give it 5 stars.
Bolted right in place. The only problem was getting the paint/undercoating out of the other holes on the Flex frame. That took longer than bolting the hitch on.

Hitch is still working fine after a year. We use it for or bike rack almost every weekend.
ordered this for my 2017 AWD Flex EcoBoost with dual exhaust, I went with the Drawtite brand due to having two other Drawtite hitches in the past... it shipped same day and arrived on time as indicated on my confirmation email.
the packaging surprised me as it was in a “generic”/universal type box, which I would assume fits a multitude of different model hitches (most bigger than this one) it did have a thin plastic cover over the receiver area to protect the powder coat, despite it being lose in the box in was in good shape.
I watched the video and figured that installing it myself shouldn’t be a problem... the installation took around a hour and went pretty much like the video, my 2017 has two exhaust hangers inboard of the rear lower control arms instead of one centered as in the video, but really not a big deal as far as the install.
with all four exhaust hangers in place and the hitch torqued to spec l lowered the Flex down and noticed that the exhaust tips were no longer centered in the valance, upon inspection the issue was clear... a reinforcement bar on the hitch was coming in contact with the hanger on the passenger side and would need to be “clearanced” to allow the exhaust tips to be centered while the exhaust is in a “relaxed position.
without any room to work on the hitch while it was installed I had to remove it and grind off the edge of the reinforcement bar to allow for proper fitment
So after installing, uninstalling, grinding and reinstalling MY total install time was around 3 hours, inspite of the extra work the receiver fits closely to the valance and is not obtrusive.
this hitch came in at about half the price as the factory one from my dealer and should be more than sufficient for my bike rack and 5x8 trailer
Bolting on the hitch took about 15min and was easy to do with the bolts provided and after watching the quick video on installing it. Wiring it up on the other hand took a while. The instructions that came with the electrical was easy to follow and super helpful...finding a path for the wires underneath the car from the battery back to the hitch is what took the longest.
I was checking on the internet to get a new trailer hitch for my 2014 Lincoln MKT.
I got my part and it fits perfectly, I am way super satisfied and will definitely buy from etrailer again! The how-to videos are great. This made installation a little more comfortable. Especially when you do not perform this type of work every day. The parts were of high quality and are working as expected.
Thank you
