I wasn't sure what type of ball mount I needed for my new Mazda CX-9, so I had to call a representative. The first time I called, the very knowledgeable gentlemen told me exactly how to measure my SUV to figure out the drop I needed. I called back the next day and talked to a lady who helped me figure out exactly what I needed.

This is my second purchase from etrailer. The first was a hitch for my old Honda Odyssey, which was also a great experience. The employees are so helpful, the video tutorials on the web site are fantastic and the prices are great. etrailer.com is the first place I go to look for trailer and towing supplies!

The ball mount and ball that I bought last year has worked out well, and is still in great shape. But Ive come to expect that etrailer.com will sell me a quality product. Thats just what they do!



by:

I needed to tow a trailer with a 2" ball. My original ball mount has a 1 7/8" ball installed. I had previously tried to change a ball on a hitch and destroyed the nut and damaged the underside of the ball mount. The lock washer had done a great job in keeping the nut from coming off. I dreaded trying to remove my 1 7/8" ball to install a new one that I would only use once.
I decided to buy a new ball mount and mount the new 2" ball.
This ball mount is so inexpensive that I realized I could have both ball sizes permanently mounted for use in either ball size.

Still glad I purchased a new mount instead of trying to change ball sizes.



by:

I needed a ball mount that would keep the tongue lock away from the spare tire on my Jeep.
This mount gave me just enough clearance so the tire cover clears.
Handled a small trailer with 1500 # of rock / concrete easily.

Great addition for the trailer.

Great service, fast shipping.

Thanks

Thank you so much for your response
and follow up to my recent order. I didn't expect to receive my Curt Hitch and drawbar order as quickly is as did. Thank you again for your attention and promptness in processing my order. It's been a pleasure to deal with your company and I would urge people to do business with you.



by:

Product and services were excellent. The eTrailer website is clear and concise, and offer DIY videos for all products. Major plus !!

etrailer service technicians are very professional and follow up on calls and deliveries. Prices are very competitive, with shipping costs included.

I've recommended to friends who were also very satisfied.

Thanks



by:

Customer service is great, returns are trouble free and fast. The hitch is very solid, and came with all hardware needed to install. I had to return a defective wire harness. Replacement worked fine. I put this on my 04 Chrysler 300M, a car that really wasn't built for towing, and the hitch works great !!

I got an excellent product at a fair price, from a company that stands behind what they sell.

I'm glad I made my purchase with etrailer.com.



by:

Online ordering was a breeze and the item shipped within a day or two of ordering. etrailers let me know via e-mail when the order was filled and provided a tracking number.

The drawbar was well packaged and quality is perfect....good welds, solid paint to prevent corrosion and the holes for the pin and ball are perfectly sized...no slop and not too tight. I would purchase again from etrailer



by:

A good product! This is the second hitch I have installed using etrailer and it went as well as the first. Not being a super skilled Tech it took longer than expected, but for me it was a project that needed to be done, and I enjoy a good project when it comes together, no matter if it took a little longer due to an average person's tool inventory and simple jack stands and floor jacks. The instruction videos are the best I have seen as of yet. If you enjoy working with your hands, I recommend etrailer products!



by:

Excellent quality and fits the car (distance from fender to trailer)
I would recommend.

It works perfect for the Volvo S60 when towing a small camper tenttrailer.



by:

This, and the trailer hitch I purchased earlier are good, solid products. There was a bit of very hard paint preventing the hitch key from going through the hole, mut a half minute with a round file cleaned it out. The paint is TOUGH so I guess that will be good for long wear.

The tongue had blown through the end of the shipping package, but there was no damage.

The whole experience with etrailers.com was excellent, especially with the video instructions.



by:

It was easy to use the website to find the correct hitch parts for my car and to order. They arrived when expected and in an intact box, well packaged. Was able to easily install in under an hour.

I really like this ball mount for my Ford Fusion.
This is a solid piece of steel.
I did turn it upside down to get the trailer tongue to look ok.

I bought this with the Curt C12091 hitch for the Ford Fusion.



by:

I have been impressed with you guys so far. Your prices are good and to have what I need. I went on {a different website}, but I like to deal with people, and talk to them when its needed, {that other website} is a selling machine, they are good with returns, but they really don't know their products, and rely on reviews to give you answers. Anyway, I will be calling you guys very soon to buy a wiring harness, and I,d like to pick one of your technicians brain for the right harness. Thanks Again for being out there



by:

Works great



by:

I'm using this to haul small trailer with Chevrolet Equinox. Hitch on this SUV is rated at 3500 lbs. max. Product is well made.



by:

Though etrailer recommended the 7 1/4" length for the Focus ST models, measuring the length required is more than 7 1/4. The 9 3/8" length is a perfect match for the bumper profile.



by:

The hitch was exactly what I needed and works great for the receiver on the car. Shipment was quick and the quality and price were great.



by:

It had a few burs that had to be smoothed off to fit in the receiver and for the pin to go through but other than that it should be good to go for the kayak trailer.



by:

A nice little receiver adapter that is strong. Good quality, nothing to worry about here.



by:

The hitch package I installed on my 05 Camry is holding up great and pulls my bass tracker like a charm!



by:

Very well made ball mount. Nice, clean welds. Good looking powder coating. Made in the USA and reasonably priced. What is there not to like about Curt products?



by:

Received everything I ordered in just 2 days. Second time I used etrailer.com and would have no problem recommending them or using them again.



by:

The Class II Drawbar is working great with our 2016 Chev. Equinox. Thanks.



by:

Solid product but needs more rise to comfortably tow a U-Haul trailer with a 2015 GTI.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch, Wiring Harness and Ball Mount for 2004 Volvo XC70
    There are options to install a trailer hitch on your 2004 Volvo XC70 but the only fits for this vehicle are Class II hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver and they do not allow weight distribution to be used; I checked with the hitch manufacturers to make sure. Among these hitches for your Volvo I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch # C12318 durable steel construction, easy bolt-on installation and the fact is made in the USA. The accompanying photo is one a customer sent in of this hitch installed...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2006 Volvo XC70
    The Curt hitch for your 2006 Volvo XC70 # C12318 is what i would recommend for you as it has the higher weight capacities and is made in the USA. Then for trailer wiring the part # C56236 will be your best option. With Class I hitches like this you have to use the required ball mount that the manufacturer specifies. So for the Curt hitch you'd need the # C45016 which has a 2-5/8 inch rise or 3-1/4 inch drop. If your trailer needs a 2 inch hitch ball you'd want the part # A-82 or for a...

  • Trailer Hitch Fit for 2015 Ford Fusion Energi
    Officially we have to recommend that you always stay with the recommendation of the manufacturer on towing as they are who the warranty of the vehicle is with and they are who would have tested the vehicle for towing. That being said we realize that a lot of people ignore their owners manual and tow with vehicles that aren't designed for it and allegedly do not have any problems. So our hitch manufacturers make hitches for these vehicles as there is a demand for them but it's a situation...

  • Hitch and Wiring for 2009 Mazda 3 Hatchback Grand Touring
    We can help you get your 2009 Mazda 3 Grand Touring Edition ready for your utility trailer. Curt Class I hitch # C11386 is a good choice along with ball mount # C45016. You will also need a hitch ball, either 2-inch ball # A-82 or 1-7/8-inch ball # A-80. Just check the coupler on the trailer; it will be stamped or have a sticker to indicate the ball size required. This hitch has a 2000-lb trailer weight rating, meaning that the loaded trailer and its contents must remain within that limit....

  • Recommended Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2005 Honda Accord
    You are correct in how the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver -Class I - 1-1/4" # C11290 is mounted. This hitch has been tested to hold a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs and a maximum trailer towing weight of 2,000 lbs when loaded. A riding lawn mower on a small trailer is probably at close to the maximum capacity of this hitch, so I recommend calculating the weights before doing this as your owners manual states 1000 lbs towing max and 100 lbs tongue weight. For your trailer wiring, I recommend...

For a ball mount you may also be interested in the part # C45016, for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball part # 19256, for a 2 inch ball part # 19258. For trailer wiring you could also use the # 1191250KIT.

    For your 2016 Ford Fusion, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" # C12091 is a confirmed fit. This hitch will be 10-3/4 inches from the ground to the inside top of the receiver opening. When using a ball mount like # C45016, this will give you a 2-5/8 inch rise from that location giving you 13-5/8 inches from the ground in that rise position. In the drop position, the top of the mount or bottom of the actual hitch ball will be at 7-3/8 inches from the ground....

It seems likely you wanted that hitch because it is a 2' receiver, but unfortunately there aren't any hitches with a 2" receiver that fit your 2004 XC70, so you'll need one with a 1-1/4" receiver, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12318.

The # C11000 can still be used to tow a jet ski trailer as it has a 200 lb tongue weight and 2,000 lb trailer weight capacity.

This has the highest capacity of all of the hitches we offer for your vehicle and will install easily too. For trailer wiring the # C59496 is what I recommend as it has the most reliable converter box. For a ball mount you'd then want the part # C45016, pin and clip part # F-4, 2 inch ball part # 19258, or 1-7/8 # 19256.

For trailer wiring you'd want # C59496, then for a ball mount you'd want part # C45016, hitch ball # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.

    Yes, the Curt Class I receiver part # C11356 is rated for up to 200 lbs of tongue weight so it supports the weight of your small trailer and gear. Tongue weight is normally 10-15% of the loaded trailer weight and it sounds like your tongue weight could be around 60 lbs at the max. As long as you do not exceed the 200 lb tongue weight capacity the Curt can support it. However, I was able to find your owner's manual as well and it lists many different configurations that depends on how...
