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.

This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Matte black, powder coated steel is durable and corrosion resistant and creates a rugged look.The part came wrapped in plastic with no box but was in good condition.
The hardest part of the installation was removing the factory hitch components.
I used Jack stands to hold the rear bumper in place, removed the screws from the old hitch and wiggled the old part out.
Lying on my back under the back of the truck the new part was light enough I could lift the new part in place and start a bolt to hold in place.
I broke a 1/2" breaker bar removing the old bolts manually so if you have impact tools it'll save lots of sweat.
Fits well and looks good and rugged.
The hitch lined up perfectly with the frame. I did have to open the hanging brackets with a 2 pound hammer in order for them to slide onto the frame. I suppose they bent a little during shipping. The videos were excellent source material.
Pretty straight forward installing. Bolts right in. Will need a hand to hold it in place to install. A little heavier than the one that was under the tuck for bumper ball. Looks great and fits great !! Also got the OEM style wiring kit. That as well fits as it should and fairly easy to install.
The trailer hitch receiver didn't fit my truck the way it was intended, even though the description stated it would fit, the width of the frame was bigger than the receiver. When reaching out to etrailer their solution was attempt to bend the thick square tubing to accommodate the frame. Its suppose to be a bolt on product. Not a viable solution, considering the distance to cover was over a half inch. Not happy, wouldn't recommend.
Easy install, site even has install guide with wire matching since the colors don't align from the pigtail to the vehicle wiring. Took me about an hour and a half, wiring included. Very sturdy hitch receiver, a lot heavier than what came with the vehicle. Would recommend!
Excellent quality and fairly easy to install. Instructions would do well to mention that if you don’t have a lift rack you’ll need two extra people to install.
Very solid hitch. It took me about 1.5 hours to install. The biggest problem is getting the bolts out, they are pretty tough to get out. One thing I would highly recommend, it is something they tell you to do, but I did not do a good job of it and it cost me an extra 1/2 hour. Clean out the threads before installing the 8 bolts. I did not do a good job and the bolts would not go in all the way. I took them back out, cleaned the threads and the bolts went in without a problem.
Now a quick review of etailer.com: You rock! My hitch showed up with damage that was caused from shipping, the box was all ripped apart and the hitch was bent. After a quick email and a very fast response, the new hitch was on the way. Less than 48 hours later the new hitch was at my door. Thank You etrailer.com keep up the Great Work!!!
Working well, only problem found whilst installing was the bolting plates were bent inwards, a hammer solved the problem.
Received hitch today, box was split open on end but hitch looks perfect. Looks like box split open simply because hitch is very heavy, no wonder box split open. Paint on hitch not even scratched, looks like it was loaded coated. Will install when it's warmer out.
AS far as the product, first impressions are great! Bought this as a gift for my dad and his '19 Chevy Colorado. I purchase this and the wiring harness. Awaiting until Christmas for an install. My only complaint was the shipping. My wife and I have had too many issues with UPS in the pass and the delivery of these items were no different. Although the items showed up early, I can't get over UPS lying stating a delivery attempt was made. I have Ring video of the time they are stating that says otherwise. Then once the items finally arrived the next day, the box containing the harness was fine but the hitch looks as if it had been dragged around and dropped. You can see from the pictures that the wrapping isn't sufficient to protect it from drops. So, as I said, I would look into shipping with someone else.
the hitch did not fit as advertised , modifications had to be made and took extra time . Otherwise the hitch is ok
First, I had a little issue on what came in the package and what didn’t.. I emailed the company (it was on a Saturday), got an email right back.. and the problem was fixed and processed right away. Service to me is big, so when the support was there it made dealing with an internet purchase that much easier. Quality hitch/harness that fit like a glove.
Received a damaged/bent hitch receiver and was recommended from the seller/James "hitting the corner with a mallet hammer to bend the piece back into form".
The hitch didn't have a bracket to bolt the support from the spare tire carrier cross member to the hitch. Other than that it bolted to the frame perfectly and fits fine
First is that Paul the sales associate was informed and knowledgeable about my purchase. Received tow bar and was pleased with its look and easy installation. Will buy other products.
Good product with a good fit. Will return for other products.
My hitch performs as-advertised. Generally pleased, however there was slight damage in shipping where the assembly fits to the frame of my truck, but nothing that a channel-lock plier and a floor-jack couldn’t fix. Looks good.
5 very solid, but I'm glad I didn't try to install it by myself.
The hitch looked just fine. However on installation I discovered that the vertical flanges were tilted inwards approx 1/4 inch so they would not clear the truck frame rails. Of course this it is disturbing to find this out when the bumper is hanging supported with block and you trying to lift a 50 pound hitch up while laying on you back and trying to get a bolt started. Not good. Had to get out a small sledge hammer to open the gap before assembly could be completed. Someone at the manufacturer needs to learn how to use a tape measure.
Ease of installation and great instructions. Would have liked to have bracket that attaches to spare tire mount included but have not had a problem because it wasn't there.
The hitch arrived with the flange ends exposed in a cardboard box. I didn't remove the hitch from the box until I had removed the original support on the truck, and disconnected the bumper. I opened the box and saw both flanges were bent inward approximately 1.5". Since I had everyting disconnected from the truck, I didn't want to return the hitch, so I tried to repair it. After 2 hours of working with a vise and a hammer, I finally got the damn thing to align with the holes in the frame and bumper. I am TOTALLY dissatisfied with the packaging of this item. The flanges that assemble to the frame SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOTALLY PROTECTED. I should have a refund on this thing. THANK YOU!
Very quick delivery fit was great easy to install
Perfect! Fit, finish, and operation we’re all perfect.
easly install works great
