Rugged, Matte Black Finish
The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

Hitch does not fit Cab and Chassis or Cutaway models. No drilling required for installation , Mounting holes are not weldnuts, so they do not have threads. Hardware includes self-threading bolts (do not use an impact wrench to thread holes), but it is recommended to use an M12 x 1.75 tap to thread the mounting holes before installing hardware.

The people at emailed are outstanding. We purchased the wrong hitch, returning it and getting the correct one was painless, the folks there are kind and helpful. The installation instructions are accurate and the install went very well. I can't say enough good things about the product, process and service. I highly recommend this company.

2017 Ford Transit T350
I bought this hitch for a 2017 Ford Transit 350 Forrest River RV even though it was not recommended by e-trailer. The other options were several hundred dollars more so I thought I would give it a try. There were two issues that I had to overcome. First, the receiver was not low enough to clear the bumper. I dry fitted it the best I could and marked out a small area of the fiberglass bumper that needed to be cut out (about 2.5 x 0.75 in). It then fit perfectly. Second, the pre drilled holes did not line up and I had to drill 4 holes in the frame. All told, it took about an hour with my wife’s help (she started the nuts on the bolts while I held the hitch in place. To me, it was well worth it to save the extra dollars. Also, the hitch arrived several days earlier than promised.

This is now the third hitch receiver I've purchased from eTrailer for various vehicles. They have all fit and worked perfectly. And I have found the price to be competitive each time.

2015 Ford Transit T350
Easy install for a novice. All I needed was to borrow a torque wrench from my brother. Helpful tips in instruction sheet and on website question section answered by experts. I chatted with support prior to purchase to ask some questions and get recommendations. It fit great. Thanks etrailer for an affordable hitch receiver.
by: Aaron07/23/2022
This hitch is very well made, easy to install but potentially one major problem depending on what you want to use it for. The face of the receiver is recessed about two inches from the face of the bumper. For most trailers this is no problem but if you will be using hitch mounted accessories such as a bike rack with a swing away arm, it may not fit as the accessory will hit the bumper before it is completely inserted into the hitch. Be aware! Photos are of a factory Ford hitch (proud of bumper about 1/4" and the etrailer hitch recessed significantly).

When the hitch is recessed under the bumper you will want to measure the distance needed to clear the bumper. We do have a FAQ article about how to measure for a cargo carrier however it can apply to any hitch accessory.

Very easy install except for the tightness of the threads on the Ford Transit. It's a good workout tightening the bolts. The trailer hitch fit perfectly.

Easy to install and very sturdy. So far, it has exceeded expectations. Installed on three Ford Transit T350 HD passenger vans.

There are welded nuts on the frame. I used a tap to clean the threads, there was road dirt, which may have made self tapping difficult. Very easy to understand and accomplish. Delivered free in 3 days.
I saw plenty of pictures of 2015 Transit, before purchasing. Mine wouldn't add any clarity.
I ordered, at the same time, a hitch and wiring for my 2015 Cherokee. Order is waiting for wiring harness. :-(

Ive only used it once, so far. But I do own a 5x8 tilt trailer and had to have a way to move it. No Problems to report. Worked as should.

Professional grade hitch that I could readily install myself at home. I just had to buy a steel tap set to prep the holes on my Transit's frame and it was good to go! The instructions were very helpful. I have a Honda 9k inverter generator mounted on a stand that a local welder built off of this last year and it's been holding up great!!

2019 Ford Transit Connect
This is the second hitch I’ve purchased from etrailer. I installed this one on my 2019 Ford Transit van. The installation was as expected and the fit was perfect. It is quite heavy so two people are needed. The hardest part was installing the four self tapping bolts that were included but they worked well and the hitch is very secure.

by: Jason12/01/2021
Very well made in the USA. Weld look great. Shipping was fast and glad they used UPS as well. The one bolt right above the exhaust pipe was a little bit of a PIA to get the torque wrench on but not etrailers fault. Very impressed I just finished installing it. Can’t wait to hook something up and tow now.

Very good quality hitch. Fit perfect on my Transit van. I opted to used a thread dye to thread the factory holes instead of the included self tapping bolts. Made the install much easier. The self tapping bolds secured the hitch fine.

The bolt holes on the arms of the hitch measure 6-1/8 inches center to center for the two furthest apart bolt holes and 2-3/8 inches from center for the shortest apart bolt holes.

view full answer... - Recommended 4-Way Flat Wiring Harness For a 2016 Ford Transit Van T150The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56327 is the 4-way flat trailer connector I recommend using for your 2016 Ford Transit Van T150.

I talked to Curt and they mentioned that this can happen if you end up tapping the bolts in too far. Unfortunately the only way to get these bolts out if you can't back them out with a wrench is to either tap them out from above (which there may not be a place to access from above), or drill them out. You may want to cut the heads of the bolts off before drilling just...

- Recommended Hitch and Wiring for 2017 Ford Transit T250For the hitch I recommend using the etrailer # e98842, which will give you a reliable hitch with a 2" receiver for your T250. For the wiring I recommend using the Curt T-Connector # C56327. This is a plug and play installation and will provide you with a 4-way flat plug for your trailer. To complete your towing package you'll also need a ball mount, hitch ball, hitch pin and clip. I recommend using the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900, which comes with 2 ball mounts with varying rise...

We have hitches with higher capacities like the Curt # C14012 but that would be a bit overkill for what you plan on towing.

- Recommended Towing Setup For 2017 Ford Transit T350I would be happy to recommend a towing setup for your 2017 Ford Transit T350. Starting with the trailer hitch receiver I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98842 due to its matte black powder coat finish that resists chipping and scratches. The # e98842 has a maximum tongue weight rating of 900lbs, and a maximum trailer weight rating of 6000lbs.

view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Ford Transit T250For your 2019 Ford Transit T250 we only have frame mounted hitches available like with the etrailer # e98842 which is the best value and also a really great option to carry a cargo carrier like the Folding Curt Carrier # C18151 which has a 500 lb capacity.
view full answer... - E-Bike Rack For 2018 Ford Transit RV with 1.25” ReceiverYou can use the Saris SuperClamp # SA4025F. This will fit in the 1-1/4 hitch that you have on your 2018 Ford Transit. It has a 60 lb capacity per bike. I do not recommend using an adapter because it will cut your hitches capacity in half which will result in the hitch not being able to support the rack and two ebikes. So, that is not an option. A flat baggage platform like this # HR1450Z-85 won't work with an 1-1/4" hitch and since you have a transit, it's not like the steel square bumpers...
