This hidden, custom-fit hitch installs behind your Ford Explorer's rear bumper so that the cross tube is always out of sight. Fully welded, corrosion-resistant receiver easily removes when not in use.

Features:
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 pleased with this hitch installed on my 2022 Lincoln Aviator. We only use the hitch for a bicycle rack so the 3500 lb. rating is not an issue and we will not need to install a trailer light system. As for the installation my advice is to look carefully at the hitch components and their installed location prior to beginning your installation. The provided installation instructions appear to be copied from a similar hitch with a fixed receiver and could result in excess removal of material and the removable receiver opening could be misaligned. This can be avoided if you measure and visualize before proceeding with the installation. My installation went very well and I am pleased with the results. Two particular things I am pleased with are the fact that when installed the receiver protrudes farther from the rear fascia than the fixed receiver model (ideal for bike rack use) and with the receiver assembly removed you cannot tell that there is a hitch installed.
Awesome experience, there was problem with missing parts and it was taking care of right away
Really good product. I installed it following the instructions provided.
Great hidden trailer hitch for my 2020 Ford Explorer at the best price I could find.
Works as advertised. I had to do a little more trimming to the bumper cover for clearance than I would have liked, but you still can't see it unless you're poking your head under there to look anyway.
This was perfect. Everything I needed and how to install.
GREAT PRODUCT and COMPANY!!
