Draw-Tite Tested Tough

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.


etrailer.com Technical Support

At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

The hidden hitch arrived in a shorter time than I expected. Even though I haven't installed it yet, it appears to be a relatively easy job.

Fits great on my 2016 Buick Encore



by:

The hidden hitch arrived within 3 days of order and I ordered on a weekend. The hitch installed fairly easily and looks good on my 2014 Buick Enclave. I was able to put the cover back on with no problem and it looks great. I am very happy with my purchase.



by:

Instructions are very good. I love the idea of the hidden hitch. Fairly easy to installed except for dropping the muffler. I will use it to haul a small utility trailer. The wiring was a little more difficult but was worth the effort. It took me about three hours to install both the hitch and the wiring.

  • Towing Capacity for 2016 Chevrolet Traverse without Factory Tow Package
    When looking at weight capacities of a towing setup, you will always be limited by a system's weakest component. I took a look at the online owner's manual for your 2016 Chevrolet Traverse and saw that for a front-wheel drive model that does not have the factory trailer towing package, the maximum trailer weight is 2,000 pounds. As you mentioned in your question, the factory towing package would have bumped it up to 5,200 pounds. So with your Traverse that does not have the factory tow...

  • Trailer Towing Setup Recommendation for 2014 Buick Enclave
    You are on the right track! The Draw Tite hitch part # 75528 is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Buick Enclave as well as the trailer wiring kit # 118270. The wiring mount part # 18144 will also give you a place to mount the 4-way that bolts to the bumper. The ball mount part # C45036 that you referenced is would also work well if you need 2 inch drop. I attached a help article that details how to pick out a ball mount drop as well.

  • Best Way to Transport 4 Kayaks on 2015 Chevy Traverse
    Without knowing the length of the crossbars and the weight of the kayaks, I would have some doubts that you're going to be able to carry 4 kayaks on the roof of a 2015 Chevy Traverse-but if you were going to do it the Thule Stacker # TH830 would be the way to go since they don't take up a ton of space. You're going to need roughly 50" (the Stacker takes up about 3" of bar space) of crossbar space to successfully do this. I would also recommend checking your owner's manual to find out the...

    Does your 2015 Traverse have a rear air conditioning unit? If so, this harness will not work with your vehicle. Also, when you ran the hot lead to your battery did you connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal of the battery?

  • Parts Needed to Tow a 3,900 Pound Trailer with a 2016 Buick Enclave with Factory Tow Package
    In addition to a trailer hitch, such as # 75528, for your 2016 Buick Enclave you will also need a trailer wiring harness, ball mount, and ball. These are the basic components needed for towing. It looks like the Enclave already has a trailer wiring harness so that plus the hitch means we need to look at ball mounts and balls. I recommend an adjustable ball mount such as # C45900 because it is height adjustable from 6 inches drop to 5-1/4 inch rise and it has both a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch...

  • Higher Capacity Trailer Hitch for 2011 GMC Acadia
    The etrailer Class III hitch part # e98863 is a really great option for your 2011 GMC Acadia. It has the higher tongue weight capacity of 600 lbs and 6,000 lb trailer towing capacity when used with a weight distribution system and 500 lbs and 5,000 lb without wd. I attached an install video for this for you to check out too.

  • Can Rear Fascia be Reattached on 2011 Buick Enclave After Installing Draw-Tite 75528
    Installing the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 75528, will require the removal of the rear fascia, and will not be able to be reattached on Buick Enclaves that are model year 2012 and older. I have added a link to an install video which demonstrates an attached hitch so you can get a feel for how your 2011 Enclave will look after a completed install.

    The Draw-Tite Class III # 75528 and the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch # 13424, which are the available trailer hitches confirmed to fit the 2014 Buick Enclave, are compatible with certain model years of the GMC Acadia, Saturn Outlook and the Chevy Traverse. However, the trailer hitch on your Buick Enclave will not fit your new Lincoln MKX, as the body styles are simply too different between the vehicle models.

  • How to Use a Class II Accessory with the 2014 Buick Enclave
    I do have an option for you but we only offer Class III trailer hitch receivers for your 2014 Buick Enclave. For this, you can choose from part # 75528 for Draw-Tite or part # 13424 for Curt. I recommend the Draw-Tite due to the cost advantage as well as the sleek round tube design. I have attached an install video of this hitch installed on a 2014 Buick Enclave for you as well. If you need to use the hitch with a Class II 1-1/4" accessory then you can do so by using part # HT02.

  • Can Fascia Door Be Reinstalled after Draw-Tite Hitch 75528 is Installed on 2010 Buick Enclave
    Once installed, the front face of the receiver will extend a bit too far rearward in order for the fascia door to be reinstalled. From what I have been able to determine in my research, the other fascia door you mentioned (with the hump in it) can be obtained from your Buick dealer, but it is intended to work with the OEM hitch because the aftermarket hitch receiver tubes extend a bit further rearward. So, you can install an aftermarket hitch and leave off the fascia door, or purchase...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2017 Chevy Traverse
    I will be happy to help. For a trailer hitch you can use Draw-Tite hitch # 75528. This is a Class III trailer hitch with a 2 inch hitch. I also recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link...

  • Trailer Wiring Recommendation for a 2014 Chevy Traverse
    For trailer wiring for your 2014 Chevy Traverse you would want the Tow Ready Wiring Harness part # 118270. If you need a hitch you would want the Draw Tite hitch part # 75528. For ball mounts I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag.

  • Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendations for a 2012 Chevy Traverse
    For your 2012 Chevy Traverse I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75528. This is the most popular hitch for your Traverse. It is a Class III trailer hitch with a 2 inch receiver opening. The 2 inch receiver is going to have a higher capacity and be compatible with more accessories compared to lower class hitches. I have included a link to a video showing installation of the hitch for you. For owners of the 2012 Traverse the most popular carrier is Pro Series carrier # 63153. This carrier...

  • Folding Cargo Carrier and Hitch Recommendation for a 2010 GMC Acadia
    The Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18151 that you referenced would be a great choice for your 2010 GMC Acadia that you plan to install a Draw Tite Hitch part # 75528 on. You would have enough clearance to fold the carrier up as well. Check out the install and review videos I attached as well.

  • Bike Rack Solution for Carrying E-Bikes with a 2012 Chevy Traverse Being Flat Towed
    What you would need to do is install a hitch on your 2012 Chevy Traverse with a 2 inch opening like the part # 75528 which is confirmed as a fit for your vehicle. With that installed you can use a Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 2-Bike Carrier for Electric Bicycles # HLY84FR which is designed for carrying E-bikes like yours and would have plenty of capacity. The rack has an 80 lb per bike capacity.

  • Can Rear Fascia of 2012 GMC Acadia be Installed After Hitch Install
    We've had customers who have installed the Draw Tite Hitch part # 75528 on a 2012 GMC Acadia come back and say they were able to reinstall the fascia once it was all said and done. We have not had that happen with the Curt part # 13424 yet so I would go with the safe bet of the # 75528 instead.

    There is one option for a trailer hitch that stands out for your 2009 Chevy Traverse, since you mentioned wanting a heavy-duty hitch, and that is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75528. This hitch has the most robust capacity of 750 lbs tongue weight along with 5,000 lb towing, which is a testament to its strength. It will also be a smooth installation on your '09 Traverse without any type of drilling into your frame required. I have added a link below to a video installation...

  • Hitch Receiver Mount 4-Bike Carrier for 1-1/4 Inch Hitch on a 2013 Chevy Traverse
    There are 2-bike platform bike carriers that will fit a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch but the 4-bike carriers only fit 2 inch trailer hitches. A 4-bike platform carrier is going to extend far from the vehicle and will be heavier than a hanging bike rack. That would but too much stress on a 1-1/4 inch hitch. What you could do is replace the 1-1/4 inch hitch with a 2 inch hitch such as # 75528 for your 2013 Chevy Traverse. But if the 1-1/4 inch hitch is welded on, you will not be able to replace...

  • Replacement Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2014 Chevy Traverse OEM Trailer Hitch
    If you cannot find the specs for your OEM trailer hitch on your 2014 Chevrolet Traverse and you are wanting to replace it then I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75528 as it has a Tongue Weight (TW) rating of 750 lbs. Even though this trailer hitch has a TW of 750 lbs you will need to check with your copy of the owner's manual to make sure that you stay within the TW limits of your Traverse. Since your 2004 Vespa ET4 weighs over 200 lbs, a carrier...

  • Will the Thule T2 Bike Carrier Fit a Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch on a 2008 GMC Acadia
    Yes! The Thule T2 bike carrier # TH83JV will fit the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75528 on your 2008 GMC Acadia. It will be a tight fit though with the bike rack in the folded up position. On the hitch it measures approximately 4 inches from the center of the pin hole back to clear the rear bumper. And when the T2 is folded up is measure 5 inches from the center of the pin hole to the nearest part of the carrier. So 1 inch of clearance. The locking features and functionality will not be issues.
