Specs:
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.

Perfect fit on my 2008 Equinox LX. I went up a weight class just because the price was better. The removable tow bar fits nice and secure. This everything in a hitch you'd expect.
Daniel H - 09/13/2021Trailer hitch arrived in excellent condition with all parts necessary to install it on my 2016 Chevy Equinox. The install was a breeze (this was the first time I've installed a trailer hitch). I watched the video, and picked up on all of the tips to make it easier. I definitely recommend using a the recommended M12x1.75 tap to clean out the frame welded nuts prior to install. I originally used Liquid Wrench and scrubbed out the holes with a brush, but it was still very difficult to get the bolts in. After I ran the tap through, they went in with ease. Everything else went smoothly and I'm very happy with the product!
Phillip - 03/15/2021Product is as advertised.. Fit well. Finish great.. For my 15 V6 Equinox... Though only 37k on my SUV... The hitch should include a tap to clean out the holes or just state a tap will be needed... Also the access panel can be cutout to fit close around the hitch with not much effort at all for a cleaner finished look... and the wiring kit was easy as advertised also.. Though I choose to run my power line from the front to back .. since I do not have a Lift...
great service, came quick, installed myself, took about an hour, one bolt didnt screw in but I got it to fit. Put my motorcycle carrier on the back to day and went riding. very happy with it.
Sierra K - 08/31/2021 Sierra K - 08/31/2021Fit my 2013 GMC terrain perfectly! Trailor hitch installed perfectly. Great videos to help The wire that was included to help put in screws worked perfectly. At a shop they wanted 500 to put a trailor hitch on and I spent under 100$ doing it myself with the help of great videos.
Miranda S - 04/29/2021Excellent product! Purchased for my Thule double-bike rack. This hitch was easy to install with clear instructions. I have every confidence that my bike rack/bikes are secure for travel wherever I go! Highly recommend!
Rks - 04/21/2021Product arrived in a timely manner with one of the hangers fully exposed out side the box. The heavy construction of the Hitch receiver proved to be too much for the delivery process and the unit was in perfect condition. I viewed the video and started the job of installation. Took me about 1 and a half hours to complete the job. The design of the unit was such that no drilling was required and the included fish wire was a wonder tool bringing bolts and square hole locks to the proper hole down a hollow frame. The wiring kit was super easy to install with step by step instructions and with NO cutting wires. Sorry it took so long to install. At 82 years old I have slowed a bit. Now I can pull my Jon boat to the lake. Happy Camper.
Richard S - 08/22/2020Bolts that came with the hitch where to big went to hardware store to buy the right ones
Sierra K - 07/30/2021I ordered this about a year ago and it’s been great! It was easy to install and have never had an issue with it. I have a 2015 GMC Terrain. I would highly recommend!
Easy one-person installation. Pre-cleaned all mounting holes as recommended. Since I did this myself, I used the top hole of the side flange to temporary secure to the lower hole of the vehicle. On the other side, I used the top hole of the side flange to secure to the top hole of the vehicle. Returning to the other side, I removed the temporary bolt and positioned the flange in the correct position and secured with the two bolts. I did the same on the other side. I finally installed the two bolts for the tongue. Nice and clean easy installation.
It fit as it should and feels strong. I installed myself, had some trouble with the welded nuts in the frame but the hitch was perfect. It's been a year and I use it many times per week. Overall very satisfied.
The product is very high quality and fit perfectly. Installation was pretty easy and the online instructions gave me confidence to do the job safely. I highly recommend etrailer.com.
Santo - 05/13/2021I am a first timer. The hitch installation was easier than I thought it would be. The videos were spot on. I had a small issue with the delivery, but customer care went well beyond. Thanks. If you are looking to purchase a hitch, look no further.
I am very happy with my new Receiver Hitch. It matched all of the online pictures posted one etrailer.com. I also loved the video that you posted. That gave me the confidence to do this project by myself. I plan on using this Hitch for a bike rack, so I can go explore other areas here I Kansas.
Great fit. Instructions were very clear.The only thing bad was the box it came in.
Heath - 05/27/2020I like the product. The frame nuts were very corroded, I did spray lubricant and used a wire brush. I tried to put in the bolts and they didn’t go in all the way. So I ended up buying a tap at the local hardware store to clean up the treads. I suggest you do that.
Took about an hour and 30 min. To install, hardest part was tightening the carriage bolts that I had to fish into place, that and the fact I had to lie on the ground and use a manual ratchet to tighten them, but overall a good install, and the videos on your website were excellent.
The trailer hitch and wiring harness came with good instructions, and everything bolted right up.
I got this so I could attach a bike carrier and it works great. The install is very simple if you follow the directions. Of your car has been on the road for awhile make sure you clean the threads on your frame and you will have no problem installing it yourself. I cleaned the threads and installed the next day in 15 minutes
Jim - 05/18/2021Installed in about an hour. I have minimal experience with working on cars and this was super easy! Will always go with etrailer in the future and recommend it to everyone! Light Harness fit great and was only about a 10 minute jod
Great service and very fast shipping! Will definitely be buying another hitch in the near future! Very professional and easy to understand YouTube instructional videos also! Thanks again!
installed on 2013 Ford van , angled shims & hardware included easy install
Fast shipping. Fit perfectly as well as the wiring harness. Couldn't have been easier (only if someone else had installed it). Watched a couple of videos before ordering and when it arrived was a breeze to install.
Ordered it Tuesday, said it would arrive Monday. Received email that it shipped Wednesday and it arrived Saturday! Installation was EXACTLY as they stated! Had to remove the center fascia (easy to unsnap with a screwdriver) and had to retap the M12 1.75mm factory holes as they were quite rusty. I was leary about fishing the bolt with square washer/plate through the tube steel so I tied a string to the bolt so I could pull it back out if it didn't come through the hole. But like magic, the bolt fell right into place in the hole! Doing this alone was a bit cumbersome so I used three 4×4's on either side to lift either side and a floor Jack in the middle as shown. Then used a 1x4 on top of a 2x4, as a fulcrum, and lifted one side in place and bolted. Did same to other side and then the last two center bolts under the bumper. The hitch fit my 2014 Equinox perfect, no wedging, prying or beating required, great product!
Hogroamer - 09/30/2020Not the right trailer hitch. I ordered for a 1995 Chevy pickup 1500 .
