Features to know about
Get More Out of Your Vehicle: Add a Class III 2" Hitch Receiver
A 3,500 lb maximum gross trailer weight rating and 525 lb tongue weight rating make this hitch a solid option for small trailers, bike racks, or cargo carriers. The 2" x 2" receiver opening is the most common size, so it pairs easily with ball mounts, cargo platforms, or a 4-bike rack for everyday use. Whether it’s a quick trip to the lake or hauling gear for a weekend away, you’ll have the flexibility to bring what you need.
Strong, Reliable Construction: Fully Welded Steel with Robotic Precision
This hitch is completely welded and bolts directly to the frame—no drilling or welding required. The precision robotic welds help maximize strength and ensure a consistent fit. It comes with a complete hardware kit and installation instructions so you can bolt it up securely using standard tools in your driveway or garage. The sturdy square-tube design keeps things stable for towing and hauling.
Built to Last Through Weather and Road Wear: Matte Black Powder Coat Finish
The matte black powder coat over a protective base coat gives this hitch extra corrosion resistance and a rugged look. The finish hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than shiny hitches so it keeps looking good even after regular use. Beyond looks, that tough coating helps resist rust when exposed to road salt or moisture.
Clean Look Under the Bumper: Concealed Cross Tube Design
The cross tube tucks behind the bumper so only the receiver is visible once installed. This keeps the back of your vehicle looking clean while still giving you full Class III capability. It’s a straightforward way to add utility without adding visual bulk.

I purchased and tried to install a bolt on hitch receiver from Amazon that ended up not fitting. I returned that unit and purchased this single piece product. I also liked the concealed look where all this is visible is the 2x2 receiver. Installation was smooth, hardware was very nice, and the fit was perfect! I am looking forward to towing a utility trailer for bikes and other larger items for family outings!

Great hitch. I did NOT remove the bumper fascia. There are two metal tabs that can be slightly bent to get the hitch in place. I did grind down a couple of the screws that have a 10mm head because they were hitting the hitch. Also, my plastic sub pan was different from the one in the instructions but it just requires some gentle trimming which is easy to figure out. And is soft as warm butter to cut. The hidden hitch with a difficulty 9 rating looks so much better than the hitch with the structure below. And has to have better aerodynamics. Totally worth it especially since you don't actually have to remove the bumper cover so it's really only a little harder. I'm an experienced mechanic and it took me 2 1/2 hours total time and I don't rush. I also use loctite even though they don't say to. And a torque wrench. Etrailer never steers me wrong. I really appreciate that they filter their products. I've never received poor quality product which saves me time. ??

Excellent hitch receiver for our 2017 Toyota Sienna XLE. Looks as good as an OEM style. You cannot see any of the black tubing or support. The only part that sticks out is the receiver itself.
The hitch receiver is well made and easy to install if you have basic DIY skills.

I bought and installed this hitch about a year ago before a long family trip to Maine to carry a new four-bike Hollywood rack. (Also terrific!) A year later, it's still going strong and works great. Installation was a breeze, though you will want to have an adjustable torque wrench handy to get the torque correctly dialed in. I borrowed one from a neighbor. As other reviewers mentioned, I was able to just pull the fascia back and get it installed without actually removing it entirely, which saved a lot of time and hassle. I used some WD40 on the bolts and the ones you need to remove to make that easier. I love the hidden look of the hitch and I'm stoked to have this capability now on our 2014 Sienna. Highly recommend!

Bought this hitch for my 2015 Sienna. It fit perfectly, like a good pair of gloves! Main frame hides behind the bumper keeping things looking neat. Super happy with how well the installation went. Directions recommended removing the bumper skirting, but was able to tuck it in without removing it with a second helper.

The product is perfect for Siennas, dont get a different one. Lined up with built in mounting holes on my 2014. The install video was superb and easy to follow. I ended up not removing the exhaust and just pushing it out of the way (1/2"). Just need a flathead screw driver for all the panel clips, philips for the screws, and 19mm socket/ extention for the hitch mounting bolts. I just put a jack stand on one end while I got one screw hand twisted into the muffler side, then got the screws in the driver side before going back and getting the remaining screws on the muffler side. Easy DIY, just set aside a couple hours. Happy to be able to use our bike and cargo racks!

This hitch has been excellent. This style of hitch requires removing body paneling and cutting a slot in the rear underbody cover. This is to be expected and is not a big deal. What is a big deal though, was that this hitch lined up will all mounting holes perfectly! Overall, this is a great hitch.

I ordered on Monday, received on Wednesday morning and had the boys (young adults) install it Wednesday afternoon. The only hitch, pun intended, was the rust that was present in the factory installed frame nuts which they were able to treat with a liquid wrench type product. I can honestly say, I am very impressed with the quality of the product and service. Kudos to Kevin and the Etrailer team.

Repeat customer here. The people at etrailer are something special!!! My favorite thing about etrailer is their high quality, high value and personable video reviews, comparisons and instructions for my model vehicle.
Shipping was stupid fast! Installation was a breeze because of the step by step how to video, did it in under 75 minutes. I got this hitch on sale too and saved a ton of money. Unbelievable!!!
Last but not least, this puppy is truly behind the bumper and hidden, I love that. And not worried about scrubbing the ground like i have in the past on a different model van and a different hitch. Thank you etrailer and great products and great service!

Installed in a matter of a couple of hours by myself. I used a QuickJack to raise the car up. Otherwise, I would have had a time getting under there. Also used a floor jack with some 4x4s to raise the hitch in place, and then secured with a tie down before getting the 1st couple of bolts in. The image for the cutting of the undertray is not very accurat; you'll need to cut more than shown. Hauled my dirt bike with a HF carrier and had no issues. Definitely recommend this hitch and believe it was worth the extra work to install the hidden version.

This hitch was bought & installed on our 2020 Toyota sienna XLE AWD.
It was shipped and received at my house very fast, impressive. It came well packed with no damage.
My install was a little different than the paper instructions. My under body panel looks different than the instructions but I just held it up and cut out what needed to be removed & it looks great!
If you have one of these vans it’s well worth the money and time to install one, it sits 1 3/4” in from the bumper face. It’s very nice hitch!

Great price and very fast shipment for such a huge box. Well packaged and easy to unpack. (I used the cardboard box to lay on as I did the install!). Directions were excellent. Only difference for my 2013 Toyota Sienna LXE was that all three bolt holes (In each side of frame) were the ones factory taped (Rubber gasket hole does not get used— and I taped over that one). It was tedious, but not hard. I woundn’t call this a 9/10 difficulty. Even cutting the plastic undercover is super easy. The head scratcher was finding out how to pull the bumper off it’s clips after unscrewing it. Overall I was very impressed with the product and the ease of installation. I really LOVE how the bar is hidden behind the bumper and all you really see is the receiver. That is SO worth the few bucks extra from basic models where you do see the entire crossbar. I also love that this is painted satin, not gloss black. Looks extra cool.

Just installed it so I don’t have the frame of reference as a user yet. Installed exactly as video showed (2012 Sienna). I had problems removing muffler hanger so I just worked around it. Unless you can pop that off easily, save the time and wiggle hitch in place around the tailpipe. I had help for 3 min from a guy that held the driver side in place while I positioned the passenger side. Fit and finish look great, holes lined up, bolts went in well. As long as it doesn’t fall off the frame (no reason it should), it’s a well earned 5 stars. Only hitch I found that is truly hidden. Worth the extra $ and installation time to not have that bar visible across the back of the van.

Product still performing as expected. No rust or wear and I continue to be happy with its hidden profile compared to other stupid, ugly hitches I see on other Sienna minivans. Then again, we are drivers of minivans, so should we really be giving any concern for appearance?

I was worried this hitch would be too big and hang too low for my 2011 Sienna but I was wrong. The hitch is built heavy but to very accurate tolerances. The instructions were complete and straightforward so putting this hitch on was a piece of cake. Everything tucked up nicely and I'm not gonna bottom out in the driveway. Good accurate directions on how to trim the under liner also. Buy this one!

Great hitch! Only issue was that the rear screws hit the hitch after installing scratching it, so I cut them to eliminate the point on them. I also marked the belly pan before removal so I could measure and cut it to fit tighter around the hitch! Perfect!!! I only cut 3 1/2 inch width for clearance around the hitch and only 4 inches depth!

The best looking hitch for the Sienna! The installation video was easy to follow, and didn't take us more than an hour and a half to install. We didn't end up removing the bumper/facia and bent those little tabs back, and cut the plastic cover as the video showed - worked like a charm. The hitch looks heck of a lot nicer than others I've seen out there. Fits our bike rack perfectly, and is tucked away when not in-use. Great product, stoked we went with this model. Thank you!

- Trailer Hitch And Wiring For A 2018 Toyota Sienna XLE Limited AWDHi Peter! The Tekonsha wiring harnesses are the most reliable on the market, so the T-One # 118648 is a great choice for your 2018 Toyota Sienna XLE Limited AWD. The Draw-Tite # 76112 will also fit your Sienna, but our etrailer # e98853 is a little less expensive at the moment. It also has the same capacities and fits the exact same way (see attached picture). Plus it's made in America! What are you planning on towing with your Sienna?

You can definitely install a hitch on your 2013 Sienna so you can utilize the Yakima Exo system.
