Your Ford Explorer might just need a hitch that fits, works, and holds up. This one's built for everyday use, but not oversized jobs. It's perfect for adding a bike rack or cargo carrier for weekend trips, or towing a small camper.
You don't need a heavy-duty truck to get out there with your gear. With 4,000 lbs of towing capacity and 400 lbs of tongue weight, this hitch is built for everyday use. It's right at home carrying a cargo tray for a weekend trip, taking bikes out to the trailhead, or even hauling a trailer to the hardware store. The 2" receiver is what most racks, trays, and ball mounts are designed for, so chances are the gear you already have (or the gear you want) will slide right in. You shouldn't have to hunt for an adapter to make your accessory work. And it's Class III, which means it's strong enough for regular use, not just occasional hauling.
This hitch bolts directly to the frame using included hardware and the tools most folks already have in the garage. There's no need to drill into the vehicle or weld anything in place, and you won't be cutting up the bumper just to make it fit. It's designed for a simple install whether you're putting it on yourself or having a shop handle it. If you'd rather not DIY, we can help you find a local installer using our dealer locator.
This hitch meets SAE J684 standards, so it's been tested to handle its rated capacity under real towing conditions. You may not spend time thinking about certifications, but they matter when you're pulling weight. This one covers strength, performance, and structural integrity, so you're working with something that's actually been proven, not just claimed.
Tech Tip
No drilling through vehicle frame required for installation , Exhaust must be temporarily lowered for installation , Hands-free Liftgate sensor areas may be limited to areas away from the center where hitch receiver opening is located
