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.

Fot awesome on my l494 2017 RR sport diesel. It’s a quality product but … you need M19 socket and wrench for the 4 back bolts M24 (!) for the main bolt. If diy definitely use air suspension to highest point and use ramps if you have them. It’s heavy and my tiny wife helped me enough but a third hand might have helped. I had to use Chanel locks to bend the main mount behind the Fran enough and malett th

Install was not that long. Total time for me was like 2 hours. The online video helped with cutting the panel correctly to go back on. Will be using the hitch for a bike rack.

Hitch was “sprung” and didn’t line up well. Holes in the hitch need to be slotted more. Bolts sent with the hitch need to be longer. ABSOLUTELY NO reason that longer bolts can’t be sent. There is plenty of room where the bolts thread in. I’ve literally installed probably 100 trailer hitches on various cars and trucks. I had to use two floor jacks and a pry bar to install this hitch. Supplying 1 inch longer bolts with the hitch would have made it MUCH easier!

I can see where the installation would be tough. It does like the side brackets were flexed out of the alignment which is while the bolt holes did not line up. You had already done what we would have suggested by using the floor jacks and pry bar to straighten the brackets. I will share your feedback about the length of the bolts with the manufacturer.



by:

Perfect fit to vehicle, no install issues. Quality heavy duty hitch with all correct hardware included. My only request would be a larger direction and dimension section for cutting the vehicle underbody plastic to fit the hitch through. That's not really something you want to mess up.

When the item arrived the box had a massive hole in it. The only item in the box was the hitch receiver, no instructions, no bolts and packed very poorly.I emailed and was told they would send out the bolts and was very polite and apologetic. I finally received the bolts and it only had 2 of the 4 bolts needed to install the hitch!!! It had the 4 washers but only 2 bolts and the Long front bolt. The picture as well as the hitch shows 4 bolts and 1 long bolt. I will need to go the the hardware store and buy what i need.
The hitch receiver is absolutely perfect, just the process and parts are very poorly handled!



by:

Didn’t think it would fit but it fit like a glove! Easy to install with the instructions given. Far and away above and beyond what I expected. Love it!

Definitely better and faster than [online] I want to thank Kathy and Ashley

1 year later and still extremely satisfied, rock solid receiver hitch, installation instructions along with YouTube video made install a breeze on our 2016 Range Rover Sport, highly recommended product all mounting holes aligned with vehicle body mounting weld nuts, highly recommended!!



by:

Works as expected and easy installation. Would recommend!



by:

The holes were drilled in the wrong direction. I paid to have it installed and then realized the holes were wrong. etrailer gave me a very hard time about returning it, even after I sent them pictures as proof.

Use your local U-haul location to purchase and install your new hitch.



by:

Poor packaging, looks like the hitch su rvived.

Installation only took myself and a friend about 3 hours. We could've done this in an hour guaranteed if we'd had a lift. We were halfway through before I remembered that to raise the ride height of the Range Rover; a great feature to have. Working on our backs, with little room is the main reason that it took this long. That and the first time learning curve. If we had to do it again on the same model vehicle, we could do it in an hour. The only other thing is that the Curt trailer hitch receiver is installed easiest if the forward part is maneuvered up around the exhaust pipes first, followed by raising the back end in place and placing the center bolt to hold it in place while the forward two bolts are screwed in place and then the rear two bolts. I was unable to slide it in from the back as was demonstrated in the instructional video for the 2016 RR Sport. Additionally, once the hitch is in place, one has to cut a u shaped opening in the under-body shield and not a window as was shown in the video. The only way that a window will work is if the under-body shield is placed over that rear center piece (shown in one photo with my hand around it) and allowed to dangle while the hitch is positioned. That might prove annoying to do and we never attempted it.



by:

While the construction of the hitch frame was pretty good, there were some tolerance issues I encountered. I had to use a sledge hammer to bend the tabs to the position they needed to be in to get the bolts aligned. I would definitely recommend that you start with the bolts closest to the back then work your way up. Once it was in, fit was great. I cut some holes in the lower trim that helped me reinstall the black cover on the bottom. Would have been nice to have a template that came along with it. and told you where to cut. Installation definitely wasn't a walk in the park but considering the price, worth it. Would definitely buy again.



by:

Awesome fit. Easy to install, now I can final pull a trailer or attach a bike rack. Also I purchased the curt electrical connection as well. It is mounted on top of the hitch. Thanks so much!



by:

I mounted this fairly easily. Needed a third hand only for a minute, otherwise it was truly a one person job. Tows my 4000lb boat/trailer with no issue.



by:

Best service prompt and they have great pricing. Hitch worked great went on in 90 minutes with electrical. Thx so much for getting to me in two days and emailing on the weekend. Instructions were great.



by:

Great fit, fairly easy to line up bolts to holes on frame. Great product.
