Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
I bought this hitch a year ago. It fit our 2000 Jeep Cherokee perfectly (my son and I installed it ourselves). I would recommend this hitch if you are in the market for one.
This is my 3rd hitch from etrailer and another great transaction & install. Easily saves 2-3 times of what it would cost to have it done at a shop. The first 2 hitches were installed on newer vehicles, but this recent hitch was installed on a 1997 Jeep Cherokee. The online videos are a lifesaver! The weld nuts on the old Jeep were rusted really bad, but in the video they explain the best way to clean them out and it works. Their wiring kits are fool-proof & super easy to install. I'll continue to use etrailer for all my towing needs.

Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
I was a bit concerned at the beginning on whether or not I could successfully install a hitch on my new Jeep Cherokee. When I saw the installation video you offered there didn't seem to be anything that would prevent me from installing it. I was right ! The hitch actually arrived a day earlier than expected, late in the week and by that weekend I had it installed. The video, ( which YES I watched several times before beginning ) explained exactly what to expect. Your video indicated it was the closet thing to a factory install. That is exactly what I found. Because it was my first time installing a hitch it took me and a friend just under two hours. The results were definitely worth it. Thanks for the great product and all the additional assistance.

2018 Jeep Cherokee hitch. Installed the hitch finally, singlehanded. Attached photo is setup used to balance hitch on floor jack slide under vehicle and lift into position without second person. 2x4 is 34 inches long and secured with tiewraps to hitch and tube brace. 2016 video was better for my instance.

very bery easy to install. etrailer gave me all the tools i need(besides a socket wrench and socket ofcorse) but the screw wires which i was worries that it didnt come with, was included with the package!
Very happy with the hitch. Took me longer to install than the estimated time (2 hours) but I am 65 and so is my helper (wife). The directions were perfect. I purchased this so I can put a bike rack on my jeep.

Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
Lousy install instructions for those with a skidplate especially. Curt obviously never installed one on a 97 thru 2001 Cherokee. The instructions were a revised copy which makes it just seem like no effort was made "Twice" at least. But it looks nice, Made in USA, functional.
Great hitch, like the look over square tube. Install was straightforward and easy, took about 30 minutes. Had a few days and already used several times. Feels very solid pulling down the road.

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
Product was easy to find and order. I was able to tract the order with ease with the online tracking system. The part was shipped within a reasonable time and was exactly the part i need and it fit great. I will order again and i will recommend to friends and family.
I added this trailer hitch and the matching wire harness to a 1999 Jeep Cherokee and could not be happier. This was a great value all the way around, shipping, product quality, fitment, and cost. The installation hardware included was more than comprehensive and it all worked perfectly. The videos produced by the firm were easy to follow, very helpful, and complete. This set up is exactly what I was hoping for and will make my future move considerably less expensive by allowing me to rent a trailer rather than a truck for at least half of the move. Thanks etrailer.com for a very high quality product at a tremendous value. Outstanding service!!!!!!!!

Fitment was perfect, instructions are nicely wrote and easy to follow. Start to finish, instillation took less than 45 minutes.

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
My experience has been great. The product is of very good quality. Delivery was fast and installation was simple. I had sold my truck and needed to have a way to haul various lumber items. A trailer was my choice. My purchase was for the Jeep Cherokee. My grandson had purchased a hitch some time before I did and he was pleased as well so it made my shopping easier. If you need a hitch, etrailer is an excellent source. I think you'll be happy.
The quality of the receiver is good. The installation was difficult due to the fact that the bolt holes on the receiver and the holes on the frame of the Cherokee did not line up perfectly. The bolts with the two plates designed to hold the receiver in place while you tighten all the other bolts did not line up making the installation very difficult

etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2"
I installed it and used a wire brush to clean off the muffler piping and it went back in smooth, yes the videos explaining were great.
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.

Hitch was very well built. Great welds, and fit my Jeep Cherokee 1816 perfectly. Hitch was delivered very promptly (except for the one day delay of road closure)
Every part of this job was easy . From ordering on etrailer website, to doing the actual job with the help of etrailer help videos.

etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2"
This is a quality hidden mount hitch receiver. It was delivered super fast. Their recommend installation link had a place local to me. Lines of Lehigh valley in Quakertown. Perfect installation in a short time. My friend asked me to get an estimate for their car and they are also buying an etrailer and having it installed by linex as well. It looks great on our Jeep Cherokee
I think you suck... I called and told you guys this was the wrong one but you insisted it was correct. After many hours for fighting I brought it to a professional who again verified that the hitch was incorrect for my vehicle. So now that im balls deep into this shit show, they had to just make it fit and will have to fabricate my trim pieces to go around my tail pipes.... I will never do business with you again. Guaranteed fit my ass and the video needs updating as well...

The hitch install was as simple as could be. My Cherokee had none of the options that would challenge the install like def reservoir, dual exhaust or spare tire. It took longer to set the torque wrench than it did to bolt it in place. Super simple, super easy. High quality and I like the look of the round tubes over the square one. Very happy!
I purchased a hitch for our 2013 Jeep Cherokee. I ordered on-line; and after receiving my confirmation - I noticed I made a mistake. I called customer service and they fixed the mistake immediately. The hitch arrived ahead of time; and I nstalled it in about 10 minutes. The wiring harness was a little more time consuming; but not difficult. Although; the ground wire was a little short; I had to splice in an additional length of wire. Overall; a very good experience - this is my second purchase; and would continue to buy from etrailer.com again.

etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2"
Installed flawlessly on 2015 Jeep grand Cherokee and looks great. Didn’t event have to jack up car. Haven’t towed anything yet it but sure it will work fine
My 2018 Grand Cherokee didn’t have a hitch. This system it tight to the bottom of the bumper kinda looks stock. I really like the round tubes it mad from, a lot nicer then the square tube I had on 2012 Grand Cherokee. It’s still rust free makes the back of the truck look tough!! I would Recommend it to anyone

The matt black finish was just what I needed, looks good.
Fit perfectly! The only thing time consuming was removeing the old reciever hardware so I could install the new ones.

Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
The hitch fits perfectly snug in my 2014 WK2 Jeep (Grand Cherokee). I did lay down 3 solid coats of black paint and 2 coats of clear coat to help prevent factory chipping and thus rusting. I've been putting my Thule bike carrier in and out with minimal wear and tear on the contact points. Great investment and I would do it again.
Excellent purchase.!!!! The installation on my Jeep Cherokee Altitude 2017 took 30 minutes. It looks fantastic and it works perfectly fine.

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
Though hesitant to order this for a 10 year old car, I did so upon realizing that the cost of this hitch was not that much more than just a single day of bike rentals for my family. Initially I will be using my receiver bike carrier on a family vacation. I previously was very satisfied with Draw-Tite receivers, so went ahead and ordered this hitch on a Sunday and was pleasantly surprised to receive it on the following Thursday. Also to my surprise was that it was packaged nicely in a double-wall box, so it arrived at my doorstep in pristine condition! Installation was quite straight-forward, and though this Draw-Tite is more visible than some other hitches, it really isn't very noticeable. One reason I chose this over the other brands was that it appears to distribute the load over a greater contact area. Thanks etrailer.com!
Easy to install and sturdy. It would be five star if the 2 inch receiver wasn't so far under the bumper. It's difficult to reach the hole where the pin holds the hitch in place.

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
Excellent fit and finish. Welds are great. Bolted right up - super easy with no problems - I bet it took only 20 minutes to install it to my 22 Frontier, using only a floor jack to support out and a 19mm socket. Shipping was super fast, 2 days. Both the product and etrailer are highly recommended.
This receiver hitch is heavy duty and very well made. The welds are all smooth and uniform, and the powder coating was great. The bolts and mounting hardware were shipped safely in a sealed plastic bag tucked inside the receiver tube. Install on my Nissan Truck was easy. I would recommend running the threads on the truck frame before attempting to bolt the receiver hitch in place as the factory bolt holes can get filled with dirt and grime.

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
I have been looking for a hitch for awhile now and then I came across your web page. I have seen Draw-Tite hitches on quite a few vehicles. So I went on to do a little research and to read quite a few of the reviews on this hitch here. After reading the reviews and the price of the hitch at that time I decided that I had found the hitch for my 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan Crew. I placed the order and the next day received a message that my order had shipped. The box arrived very quickly after I placed my order which was a pleasant surprise. One side of the box was really tore up and the hitch had come free of the strapping inside the box. The only thing inside the box was the hitch with the tongue/receiver wrapped in plastic wrap and the two pieces of cardboard that had come free. I search the inside of the box for some instructions but did not find any at this point so I would know exactly which bolts to take out. The first thing I did was to jack up the back of my van so I had a little more room to work underneath where the hitch was to go. Then I took off the passenger side rear tire to give me better access to the bolts that had to come out for the hitch and for the exhaust system to be lowered. I then took out the five bolts for the hitch and had to take out the three bolts holding up the exhaust to give me room to install the hitch. Then came the hardest part of the whole process and that was getting the hitch up to a point where I could get a bolt started. I tried using the exhaust system to help me but was still having a problem. So I got a cinder block I had in the garage and put it under one end of the hitch which was a better platform and really helped me getting the other side started. From that point on it went really well getting the other side started and then all five bolts in and tightened down. I then stepped back to see what it looked like and at this time I saw something white deep in the hitch receiver/tongue. When I pulled it out I noticed it was the instruction I had looked for earlier. It would have been nice to have these when I first started. A suggestion would be to put a notice on the plastic wrap that is wrapped around the receiver/tongue of the hitch that states "Instruction Enclosed" or "Packing Slip Enclosed" or just tape them to the inside of the box, not hidden inside a wrapped receiver/tongue of the hitch. I then went back and torqued the five bolts to what it stated on the sheet I found. I then put the three bolts back in the exhaust system to get it back in place which basically completed the installation of my Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch.
We have had the hitch for a year. Only use it for the bike rack as we do not want to tow with the mini van. Hauled 4 bikes to the beach easily and quietly. Assembled as directed and fit in place easily. Satisfied with the product.

GREAT website and EASY to navigate to the right part needed! Cheaper prices than I could find on E-Bay too! LOVE THIS COMPANY!! I recently decided to get a new hitch for my 2001 Grand Jeep Cherokee so I started searching on E-bay and found one for a 2001 Jeep Cherokee and ordered it. (FROM ANOTHER COMPANY) Notice I said it was for a Jeep Cherokee. I didn't know that a Grand Jeep Cherokee and a Jeep Cherokee are two different style vehicles so I ended up with the wrong hitch. The order process was confusing. Once that part came in I realized it did not fit and while the company offered me a full refund IF I paid to ship it back I decided to try to sell it on Craigslist as shipping for something that heavy would be a lot! That's when I decided to try to find somewhere else to buy the hitch from and found Etrailer.com. As I said, VERY easy to pick the correct part for the right vehicle, GREAT prices, and quick service! Very happy customer!
I watched the video etrailer's provided, and sure enough it was as easy as the video said. I installed the hitch by myself. On my 2004 JG Cherokee I was able to lay under the back end width wise. By doing this I was able to hold one side up and screw 1 bolt in while hold the other side up with my knees. After you get one bolt in on both sides its a wrap. Only hard part was the two bolts that are under the bumper. If you have swivel ext than no problem. Thank you much etrailer.com!!!

Etrailer, has not let me down. This hitch fits perfectly, anad the one i purchased for my 2015 cherokee did also. Great product, great company, will keep coming back.
First, the fact that you did a 1 year follow up is great. It's easy to get a positive review when a product is first received but not used much. This hitch is very nice but installation is not what was noted. A mechanic needed to drop the gas tank and modify the bumper cover in order to install. The product itself, 5 stars, installation 1 star.

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2"
I blindly ordered a Draw Tite receiver for my 2011 Acadia - based upon reputation. Had it installed and it cost me $100 do have it put on. Recently weather allowed me to proceed to installing my long term (CURT) 2 inch Ball bar with 2 inch ball into the Draw Tite receiver for work needing to be done and found that it would not allow inserting unless use of sledgehammer. I attempted to file down the misaligned (welded on) collar that was forcing the misalignment and was not able to make to make it work. Nichole at etrailer worked with me and replaced the Draw Tite receiver and I found the replacement was properly aligned and my Ball bar does now fit properly. So - presently had over double the cost for the defective unit and replacemetn that I should have. Being 82 year old I can no longer perform the task of handling this work.
Came 2 days early, didn't take my money till they ship it. Plus I never like to order anything online because I'm afraid it won't fit. But they said it would an it did( 2016 chevy traverse). Also it says 45 mins to install. Sounds About right 10 mins asking the wife an kids to help hold it up with no luck, 10 mins looking for my tools 18mm & 3/4 wrench,10 mins looking at the picture of the instructions because what GUY really reads it? lol, 10 mins putting it on by myself laying on my back in the driveway using my leg to hold it up & 5 mins putting on 1 bolt by the muffler because I didn't read the instructions an lower the muffler out of my way hahahah. P.s is you have soft hands I suggest wearing gloves an waiting for the muffler to cool off because i didn't ??. But all in all it was easy & fast to put on even if your by yourself. Definitely ordering again if I need anything for her car. Thanks etrailer

etrailer Class III Trailer Hitch Installation - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look and installing the etrailer trailer hitch receiver on a 2016 Jeep Cherokee. And when choosing a hitch, a lot of times they all start to look kind of alike. And until you see it on the vehicle, that's when you really start to see the details or not see the details. And that's because this is a hidden cross tube, meaning the main portion of the hitch that is structurally mounted to the vehicle is actually hidden behind the bumper. So you're not gonna see that unsightly tube.
etrailer Class III Trailer Hitch Installation - 2016 Jeep Cherokee e38AR
Hello neighbors it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look and installing the etrailer trailer hitch receiver, on a 2016 Jeep Cherokee. Now this is what the hitch is gonna look like when it's installed and you'll see pretty quickly that this is an exposed cross tube. So you are able to see the hitch while it's on the vehicle. But really as you stand back it does stay kind of hidden because it is a little bit lower. Now this is a two inch by two inch receiver opening, so that's gonna be great for a number of different accessories. So whether you're towing, or if you're just using a bike rack or cargo carrier.

The main body of the hitch is completely hidden behind the rear fascia of the vehicle so it's a real clean install. It looks exactly like what a factory hitch would look like on most vehicles. It also sticks in nicely from the rear bumper cover here so when you're walking behind the back of the vehicle to put stuff in the hatch, you don't have to worry about running your knee into it or your legs. That's a nice selling point of it there. This hitch has a maximum ton weight rating of 750 pounds and a max trailer weight rating of up to 5,000 pounds.
