This hitch is built for serious towing. With a 10,000 lb maximum gross trailer weight and 1,000 lb maximum tongue weight, it’s ready for hauling small campers, boats, or loaded utility trailers. When used with weight distribution, the capacity increases to 12,000 lbs GTW and 1,200 lbs tongue weight. The square-tube design gives it solid strength for consistent use, not just weekend work.
You don’t need specialized tools or welding to mount this hitch. It’s a precision, robotic-welded unit that bolts straight to the frame using factory-style mounting points. All hardware and instructions are included. The exact fit alignment means the holes line up cleanly—no modifications or guesswork—so you can get it installed in your driveway with basic tools.
The gloss black powder coat over a protective base layer keeps the steel protected from corrosion and road grime. This finish holds up against weather and wear while maintaining a clean look under the bumper. Even after years of towing, it stays looking sharp instead of chalky or rusted.
The 2" x 2" receiver opening works with a wide range of towing accessories. Whether you’re using a ball mount to pull a trailer or adding a cargo platform or bike rack for travel days, this hitch gives you the flexibility to carry more without compromise. It’s a straightforward way to add real utility and strength to your setup.

Works as advertised.
Fitted perfectly,(96 e250 Ford van).
Was as easy to install as was advertised. Good quality welds on a heavy gauge steel.

GREAT COMPANY!!!! THEY UPGRADED MY SHIPPING FOR FREE ARRIVED MUCH EARLIER THAN EXPECTED. THE HITCH IS AWESOME.
Outstanding! I love etrailer!
Product fit better than expected ... no drilling required, lined up with all factory holes, just bolted up and torqued. Could not have asked for a better product. Shipping arrived as promised.
Easy assembly, took HOMEMADE HITCH off and replaced receiver hitch made for the van. Looks and works well pulling our church trailer for camps. Thanks, GREAT PRODUCT!!
One day after placing my order, I received an email informing me that my order had been upgraded from the shipping choice I had selected to a faster delivery at no extra cost to me. I had an excellent experience with this company and will recommend it to anyone that requires a hitch and/or accessories. Thank you!
The Curt products I received are as described, high quality and were well packed. The hitch fits the 27-year-old vehicle. I was glad to have such a large range of products across different brands, and the prices were the best I found. The shipment of hitch receiver, ball mount, ball, etc., got here just a few days after I ordered it. I didn't expect such fast shipping. I will recommend etrailer.
This hitch receiver works as it should. It came well finished, with clear instructions and all the hardware needed to install it. I had a question about possible clearance issues and called etrailer customer support. The tech was great and answered all of my questions. The hitch receiver fit great, no additional drilling was needed. I also was able to reinstall my spare tire under the van, which my older hitch receiver did not allow enough space for.
I have a step bumper on my 1998 Ford E350 van. I was going to use if for my hitch mounted tilt up, cargo carrier, with a 500 pound capacity. This hitch receiver sets back a couple inches too far from the step bumper and would not allow the cargo carrier to tilt up, unless I used a hitch extension. I used an 8" extension with a 5k tow and 500 pound tongue capacity. Using a hitch extension will decrease your load capacity. So, make sure the hitch extension is capable of handling the load you will be putting on it.
Love the video. It was a great help in installing this hitch. Very easy to follow. Nice tip with the silicone adhesive to hold the washers in place. The receiver edge sits back under my bumper about 5 in. Unfortunately a little bit farther back than my previous hitch so I have to buy new ball mounts now. Would have been nice if the hitch had been designed to angle back to end up at the edge of the bumper. There are not very many ball mount options for where it sits.
But I found what I needed. The hitch is on and looks sturdy. And soon I'll be able to tow again once I receive the ball mounts from etrailer.com
Sarah is an extremely helpful representative of E-Trailers!!!
Our family has been in the classic car business since 1969.....I have chained a trailer hitch on the back bumper many times and headed out for California...very recently my sister bought a vending route along with a 1 ton van....she bought a new trailer hitch somewhere and wanted me to drill holes in the frame because it wasn't the correct one...I found etrailer online and called...the product was here overnight and Suz installed it herself!!.....I highly recommend etrailer..... thank Katie D!

Glad we got it to you in time, David! Where you headed?
Installed on a 1991 Ford E350 Ambulance. Receiver fit perfectly, install was a breeze. Had to drill 2 holes as described in instructions. Used the holes on the receiver bracket as the template. Total cake job. Install was approximately 45-60 min in total.
I use the receiver daily hauling around my motorcycle. No issues.
