Best Volkswagen Routan Trailer Hitch Ball Mounts

What I ordered quick shipping. Easy install

Working in the sand and grass of my driveway my wife and I installed our new etrailer receiver hitch. Great fit and finish! Went right on as described in the online guide. Hitch required a spacer washer on top back bolt attachment point. Taped it on so it would not move while lifting in place and it stayed right there! Used a car jack to raise up and hold the hitch into the underside of the trunk tighten the bolts and reattached the tail pipe done. Now we can pull our Sunfish Sailboat any where the car will go.

Great quality and very reasonably priced.

I haven’t used the trailer ball and hitch kit yet but the kit is made solidly.

What I ordered quick shipping. Easy install

I had to return my hitch because the person that was supposed to install it for me fell through so I had to use somebody that installed their own hitches but I kept this ball mount even though the other one came with one because it is so much better for the same money. This is such a good product. Your shipping is amazing your people are helpful and were gracious even about the return of the other item. You did such a good job I would recommend your company to anyone. My nephew recommended your sight after his really good experience with your company and his business is using your hitches to pull trailers and they are performing well after several years.

Fast and helpful service. They helped me select an alternative to the hitch I originally ordered and it was a good choice. Trailered my track bike on a 300 mile round trip with absolutely no problems

This drawbar was clearly used. See the picture. I asked etrailer about it and sent this picture but the person that replied, Noah, thought it must have been bumped around in shipping. If shipping caused this much damage, it's a poor quality product. If it was, in fact, used, then etrailer lied to me. Either way...not good.

The hitches and balls are great. They haven't rusted and they do what they're supposed to do. Plus, having both mounts allowed me to figure out which height was best to go with my receiver/trailer setup. Now, would I get it again? No. Why? Because having the two different drops/rises and ball sizes doesn't matter once you attach them with the cut washer. At that point, they are almost permanently attached, so unless you have 2 trailers that are both different tongue heights and have different ball sizes, it doesn't really matter. (Though I guess in a pinch, one could get you close enough to handle another trailer.)

I bought both the hitch and ball receiver. The ball receiver was well package and arrived unscathed...unfortunately the hitch arrived damaged or poorly painted. As the attached photo show a bit of sliver metal is visible and I'm concerned that rust will attack and weaken the structure. This uneven and rough area is located on both sides and at both ends. I not sure if it is all damage because of the roughness of the blemish. The area pictured is worst of the four damages. The shipping carton shows damage and repair to the box tear. The tear was repaired with clear tape and staples. The metal staples could have caused some damage exposing the bear metal. I just happen to have some black spray-can paint and will cover the bear metal before installing later the morning. Thank you for this product review opportunity.

Product is exactly as described on the etrailer.com website and measurements and dimensions fit perfect. Easy phone order process and prompt delivery, standard shipping arrived 3 business days after the order was placed. The extra long version of the ball mount makes it perfect for me to put on the bike rack while towing my horses.

Has done what it is supposed to do. I have used the hitch to tow two boats over the last two years using both ball sizes. The only issue is the appearance. Saltwater creates rust and break down of the coating on the hitch. Was never dunked in salt has been effected being near saltwater. Hitch was washed with freshwater after each use in salt. I probably wouldn’t buy again. I have seen some other hitches that can do similar adjustments that do better near saltwater environments.

This hitch is very heavy duty, better than I expected. All products I have ordered from etrailer have been exactly what they say it is and exactly what I needed. Customer service is excellent and they are very knowledgeable!

Great quality and very reasonably priced.

Just what I ordered. Great quality and fast shipping.

Exactly what I needed for my small cargo trailer behind my Mustang. Just the perfect rise. Catalog information was extremely useful and informative in finding the right drawbar.

Good product and good price, thanks etrailer

I haul a 5.5x10 open trailer w/ a 900 lb. ZTR, a push mower, and a handful of other tools 3 days a week. It is what it is. It does the job, no problem. A little finish wear and rust on the ball, but nothing major. I LIVE ON A DIRT ROAD, which is probably responsible for the wear.

This ball mount is excellent quality. Shipping was fast and price was good. If you are like me and dont plan on switching balls out on your hitch then this is the way to go. Highly recommend.

This is a heavy duty ball mount and it seems to be well made. I will learn more as I tow my 3,000 pound motorboat.

Very easy to install, looks good and functions well. I would buy it again.

Fits my Curt hitch as described (also purchased from eTrailer), but if pushed in too far it gets stuck in the receiver tube. Had to use a wheel puller to get it back out! Just need to push it in an inch or so to the pin holes line up not problem. My only complaint about ETrailer is that they use huge staples to close their shipping boxes. The staples are tough to pull out (get out your screw driver and pliers if you don't have an industrial strength commercial staple puller). My cardboard recycler does not want these dangerous looking staples left in the box, so I need to pull every one of them out!
