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.

FITS PERFECT on my 2019 CHEROKEE LATITUDE! I ordered on Sunday, it showed up Wednesday, and i bolted it on friday with no problems. I bought it so that i could use a bike rack, and its a perfect fit. And for the price and shipping and availability, I could not have asked for a better deal!



by:
2021 JeepCherokee

It was a perfect fit. And looks great. After I bought a cheaper one off of ebay that didn't fit i was aggravated. But I looked up etrailer. It had good reviews so I gave them a chance. It is perfect and was cheaper than the big brands. But still fits and looks great



by:

Hitch is strong and very well built. Installation is pretty straight forward. Second one from trailer and it’s great. Easy to DIY and using jack stands to help line up and raise your hitch into place makes it an easy one man job.



by:

Have done quite a bit of business with etrailer and have never been dissapointed.



by:

Watched the video on YouTube and installed it myself. Pretty easy. Had to use my knee to hold the hitch up while I started the bolts.



by:

Love being able to travel now that I have a hitch provided by you to the VA.
I was unable to get my scooter around to town and my doctors appointments. I feel free again.



by:

Super sturdy and easy to install. Moved across the country with it towing a mid sized trailer.

Love this product. Would buy again! Very good quality product



by:

Not sure if it was the company or the delivery services used; the package was extremely beat up when delivered. Several holes and bent corners.



by:
2020 JeepCherokee

My order came ahead of time and it fit perfect. Thanks so much



by:

Lowers your breakaway angle for off-roading, unlike a factory style hitch, but not a big deal. Otherwise a great product that works exactly as advertised, a very sturdy hitch!



by:

I appreciate how sturdy this hitch is!



by:

Very good product and easy to install with 2 people.



by:

Should work GREAT but what a PITA installing it. Remove or drop the muffler out of the way prior to trying to install!!!



by:

Part of the hitch is in the way of the bolts making it very difficult to attach. Had to leave one bolt off because of this.



by:

I ordered a trailer hitch for a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee and was shipped the wrong unit. I need to return it after buying one from my local garage who sourced it from Mopar

Fit like a glove. Watched Install video and installed it within the hour by myself. Happy with the purchase.

hitch mounted up fine. Heard knocking sound when Jeep Cherokee went over small bumps in road. Got out to check hitch receiver and it was tight. Crawled under car and noticed the passenger side exhaust tip was banging up against a corner of the hitch. Pulled rear section of muffler off and used an angle grinder to trim about 3/8” off the rounded corner of the hitch receiver on both sides. Works fine now. This receiver will only carry bicycles and not be used for towing. Could have been the passenger side exhaust tip was mounted to the muffler slightly different than the driver side.

Received ordered item the next day

It installed the exactly how the video show it. It's built nice a heavy would highly recommend this product to anyone.

Purchased mainly to be able to mount a vertical kayak carrier and it's working great. Easy installation with good instructions.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk That Protrudes Through Bumper
    While there is one hitch for your 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk that exits through the bumper, the # e73ZR does not, as the receiver will be below the bumper of your Jeep. The only option for a hitch that protrudes the bumper of your Cherokee Trailhawk is from Draw-Tite: - Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT28MR I have added a photo of the # DT28MR installed on a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk so you can see exactly how it will look when installed on your Jeep.

    Hey Tim, thanks for reaching out! We have a few different hitches that fit your 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, but the one I recommend picking up is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e73ZR because it has a matte black finish that offers better protection and a sleeker look than the standard glossy black finish on the other hitches.

  • 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Hitch and Trailer Wiring Harness Suggestion
    Sorry about the confusion. The Curt # C13398 and # C13171 and the etrailer brand # e73ZR would all fit the 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Of the various options, a top choice would be the etrailer # e73ZR because once installed it would be the most concealed. The receiver tube would be accessed via the removable panel in the bumper fascia, making for a factory installed appearance. However, if you'll be towing with the hitch, it'll be difficult to attach the safety chains because of the...

    There are three differences in the two receivers. The etrailer Hitch item # e73ZR mounts slightly higher and will offer more ground clearance but the installation is more difficult. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13395 has a higher towing and tongue weight capacity. The Curt has a maximum gross trailer weight of 5,500 lbs and a maximum tongue weight capacity of 675 lbs.

  • Recommended Hitch w/ the Best Ground Clearance for a 2019 Jeep Cherokee
    Thanks for the pictures! The ground clearance of the etrailer Hitch item # e73ZR on a 2019 Jeep Cherokee is right at 9-1/2" to the bottom of the safety chain loops. This dimension will vary depending on passenger/cargo load, tire condition (brand new versus having 40K miles on them) and tire inflation pressure. I really like the etrailer hitch because the crossbar installs behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" x 2" receiver visible. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver....

  • Is There a Custom Cover Plate for Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver on 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
    There are two types of trailer hitch options for a 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, ones that installs under the bumper like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e73ZR and ones that installs inside the bumper like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # DT28MR. In regards to the latter option, there will be a large opening inside the bumper once installed if installed per the instructions.

  • Recommended Brake Controller for a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee With Factory Tow Package
    From what I could find, the 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee did not come with a factory brake controller. However, you do have a factory port for an aftermarket controller to plug directly in to. The Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160 paired with the plug and play harness # TK93VR will be the ones I suggest. This is a very easy controller to set up and use, and can handle trailers with up to 3 axles that have brakes. The harness will also plug directly into a port under the dash. I included a video...

    I would be happy to help you but the etrailer Hitch item # e73ZR fits the 2019 and newer Jeep Cherokee's so it's not going to be much help determining which has better ground clearance. The hitch with the most ground clearance, that fits your 2018 Jeep Cherokee, is going to be the Draw Tite item # 75998 with 13-1/4" from the ground to the top of the inside edge of the receiver. Only the hitch opening will be visible with this hitch and it sits 1/4 inch higher than the etrailer Trailer...

  • Fascia Trimming Required to Install etrailer Hitch in 2019 Jeep Cherokee
    There are no photos that can be forwarded so what I have done is cut out a photo of the installation instructions, which I have also linked for you. This shows you exactly what fascia trimming is required to install the etrailer # e73ZR Trailer Hitch on your 2019 Jeep Cherokee. It is possible you simply have not trim quite enough, which is interfering with your installation attempt.

    The etrailer Hitch part # e73ZR is what I recommend for a 2021 Jeep Cherokee. It offers a bolt-on fit for all models including the Latitude. It has a hidden design therefore the crosstube is tucked behind the bumper. This makes for the best ground clearance and overall appearance.

    The hitch I recommend for your 2020 Jeep Cherokee Latitude is the mostly hidden etrailer # e73ZR. Once this hitch is installed the only thing visible will be the hitch opening hanging below the rear bumper. See attached picture. I also attached an install video as well. Then for wiring the Tekonsha kit part # 118779 is a really great option too. It installs very easily and comes with a very reliable converter box as well.

  • Does Hitch Install of 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude Plus Require Exhaust Lowering
    Looks like all versions of the 2019 Jeep Cherokee including the Latitude with single exhaust will require the dropping of both sides of the exhaust to install a hitch like the # e73ZR. You could try to get away without lowering the exhaust but I suspect it would still get in the way. Since you have the single exhaust you shouldn't need to trim the bezel either.

    For your application I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e73ZR and the T-One Wiring # C56406. To tow with your 2021 Jeep Cherokee you'll also need a ball mount kit and for that I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit # C45534. I like the etrailer hitch because it has a matte black finish that helps it blend in with the trim on your Cherokee and hide any scratches that might occur from road debris. The towing kit not only includes a ball mount and hitch ball, but it also comes...

  • Installation of a etrailer Hitch on a Jeep Cherokee Latitude
    The recommended installation time for the etrailer Hitch item # e73ZR you were looking at is 1 hour. Now this is the time a professional installer should be able to get it done in but looking at the instructions, and specifically the part referencing the dual exhaust, I would say this is a pretty simple install. This receiver hitch bolts onto your Jeep Cherokee Latitude and will require no drilling or welding. You will have to do the 2nd step in the installation directions twice because...
