This fully welded, corrosion-resistant vehicle trailer hitch receiver is perfect for your light-duty towing needs. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. Drawbar sold separately.
Features:
Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

Just thought you would liked to have known the hitch fit perfectly with the JUKE Underbody Protector Kit. It was a snap to install. Took me about 45 minutes to get it in. And by the way, great tip about lubricating the rubber muffler supports. I used a little bit of WD40 & they were easy to manipulate. I used a pair of auto wheel ramps & backed up on to them to get the car high enough to work under. A milk crate worked great to support the muffler while installing the hitch.Thanks for your help & support. Great product. It will have my recommendation.
I installed this hitch on our 2013 Juke Nismo AWD.
bolted right in without any modifications needed to the Nismo rear fascia. I did need to purchase some aftermarket exhaust hangers so the exhaust tip wouldn't rattle against the hitch.
The hitch for my 2011 Nissan Juke was delivered in a very timely fashion. All the pieces were there and the packaging held up pretty well in delivery. As for the installation, I am a woman who knows many things, but cars is not one of them! Another woman friend and I did the hitch installation ourselves with very little issue. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. It took us a little over an hour to complete, which is longer than the estimated time you guys gave, but I thought it wasn't too bad considering neither one of us are mechanics! I think the most stressful part for me was backing up onto the lift ramps to elevate the back end of the car! I did it with no problem though! The suggestion about lubricating the rubber stabilizers was a blessing and made their removal a snap. Another customer suggested using a milk crate to hold the exhaust during installation and that worked well too! I folded an old moving blanket and put it on top of the milk crate as well for higher support. The only suggestion I have is advising customers that they'll need a torque wrench. I don't have one, so I almost panicked when I saw we need to torque the screws down to specific Lbs.-Ft. Thankfully, we could tighten them down enough to get my car to the auto shop across the street, where a mechanic there tightened them down to specs for free (I suggest throwing $10 or so to the mechanic if you can)! Other than the torque wrench issue, everything was great! I've got my hitch and cargo carrier, and am all ready to travel across the country to my new home in Colorado! Thanks for your wonderful products and customer service! I will definitely be shopping etrailer.com again when I ready for hitch accessories! I've already recommended you guys to several people looking for a hitch and accessories! Keep up the good work!
Draw-Tite sportframe trailer hitch receiver. I watched the online videos prior to installation, which were helpful. Scraping the silicon from the fame took a little bit of time. The mounting holes on the vehicle frame on the drivers side were very corroded with rust and we needed to use a tap to clean them out. That took some time as well. Once we got everything cleaned, installation was a breeze!
There are two cosmetic things I noticed which made me feel like it was very quickly put together. First, the attachment below the receiver to connect chains to is not welded in place level. It is slightly crooked. Second, the e-trailers logo sticker was placed on the underside of the hitch and very sloppily placed at an angle. It cannot be seen when mounted to my vehicle. Not great for advertising your product. Outside of the cosmetic issues that aren't very noticeable, it is just wat I wanted! I purchased this rack to hold a bike rack, not for towing. The rack is the Saris SuperClamp EX 2 Bike. It is amazing and pairs perfectly with the etrailer hitch!
Hitch went on without a hitch (no pun intended ) installed in 30 mins really!
Very happy with etrailer's ease of ordering and fast free shipping. Would definitely recommend . For use on 2014 Nissan Juke for a cargo rack. Very heavy duty. We have DRAWTITE hitches on all our other vechicles is why we picked this brand . It fit around muffler perfect .
I purchase the Curt hitch for my 2012 Juke a while ago. After installing it, the muffler always hit the hitch. Fearing it would break my muffler I removed it and contacted Curt. They promptly sent a new one with no better luck so I removed it again and gave up. I had to replace my exhaust and afterwards tried to install the Curt hitch again with the same issue and that's when I got the hitch from etrailer. It arrived in good condition and on time. Install was simple and there was plenty of clearance between the hitch and the muffler. Great product!
It was a fairly simple installation. My only difficulty were the weld nuts on the driver's side--nothing had been attached there and the holes had some rust in the threads, making the bolts tough to get threaded.
Haven't used it yet, I'm waiting for my bike rack to arrive. I recommend this to anyone who needs a hitch.
I was excited about my hitch until I tried to put an adapter on it and found there was a metal knob on the inside that was keeping my adapter from going all the way back in order to install the pin. I am not sure at this point what etrailer plans to do about this.
Fit and finish was perfect. It was extremely easy to install on my 2015 Juke AWD with a basic 3/8in drive ratchet and torque wrench, took roughly 40 minutes to install.
+Install was fairly straightforward, due to excellent instructions. Distance between frame rail segments could be ~1/8 closer together to eliminate difficulty...
Fits like a glove. Easy instructions. Might have to get an M10 tap to chase holes on the driver side if you have lived in wet areas or places that use salt (holes were rusty on my 2014). Quick delivery and well packaged.
I'm 74 years old and the hitch was so easy to install it took me by myself about 45 min to install.
2011 Nissan Juke AWD. Self installed by hubby. Jacked the vehicle up and placed jack stands under it. Tow plate on passenger side removed easily, but bolt holes on driver's side needed to be tapped out [just brushing them didn't do it]. Fairly easy to install once hubby borrowed a set of tap and dies from our son. Did NOT need to lower the muffler [as mentioned in some]. A bit of maneuvering and it fit in fine.
My bike rack should work fine in this, which is the reason purchased. We've purchased from Etrailer before and have always been pleased with their service, price and commitment.

Still works just great!
very good quality and customer service. The hitch was easy to install. I never even jacked up the car. A little less room but made it possible to just lower the exhaust on the garage floor. Did not take long at all. This is the second hitch I have purchased from etrailer.com. excellent customer service thanks again

Everything is still working great. I use the trailer hitch very often usually pulling a small trailer or popup camper. Very satisfied with my purchase and customer service. thanks for the email
Just bolted up a Draw-Tite hitch to our 2017 Nissan Juke, fits like a glove. Some concern, as this product has not had a confirmed fitment to this new model year vehicle. Mr. Howell over in the subject matter department remedied this by personally providing me with the technical data from the hitch in question. I think this merits the term " above and beyond" in reference to customer service. I now feel I'll have no trouble behind me (ha) as I tow crippled motorcycles all over creation.

I dont like to use the hitch I purchased from you. Its use means I am towing a broken motorcycle instead of riding it! Seriously, Im happy with both its fitment and its function. Please be assured in the event of a future tow vehicle change, I will look to you guys first for for my tow hitch needs.

I did this on my 2013 awd nismo. A couple of problems I ran into. 1. it pushes up 1/4 inch on the rear fascia 2. These hangers let a lot of movement in the exhaust. So much that barley pushing left or right the exhaust hits the hitch assembly. I havent noticed any hitting while driving yet. I will keep an eye out there for a better solution I just dont like how loose the hangers are. Just wanted to leave a comment. Idk if this will be everyones experience. Just what I ran into. Yet to tow anything with it. Thanks Todd for the comment wouldnt have tried it without seeing someone else do it.
