I just finished installing the stealth hitch and the towing package (SH53GR) on my Telluride. For those who have been using the Stealth Hitch website, SH53GR is the same as Stealth Hitch part number SHT25067A, which is the right one if you aren't pre-wired for towing. Put another way, SH53GR is the right one if you didn't buy a tow package with your Telly.

The instructions (and video!) were absolutely spot on. I consider myself handy, but I don't really work on cars. I had zero trouble at any point of the installation with knowing what to do. This is really a compliment to eTrailer (who made the video) and Stealth Hitches, who I believe authored the instructions.

I did run into a few small problems while installing. First, two holes on the frame didn't quite line up by a tiny amount. Is this the hitch or my car? It's hard to know. This made it difficult to fit some bolts through. I ended up having to use a small 3 lb sledge to get them to go in. Additionally, I had some trouble getting the latch block to go into its bracket. Some heavy coercion with a rubber mallet finally got it in place. These problems weren't present in the video though, so your experience will probably be better.

My overall installation time wasn't 40 minutes, as the review suggested. It actually took me about 7 hours - about 5 for the rack receiver and 2 for the towing package. One thing made things go faster -- I bought some socket adapters for my impact driver. That probably saved me at least an hour. I probably lost an hour because I was missing a couple of sockets that I was sure I had and was trying to use a crescent wrench before I asked a neighbor.

As a side note, I'm 100% happy with the Stealth Hitch. My Telly looks unmodified and the Trailer Hitch is rock solid.

Purchased this a year ago and am just as happy with it now as I was a year ago. Excellent quality product. The installation was challenging but clear and straight forward. etrailer did a great job with the how-to videos. I easily recommend this product to anyone.

Not all the parts were in the box. It apparently requires additional kit that I was never made aware of before I bought it. Very unhappy.

  • Can T-One Wiring for 2016 BMW X5 Be Used with Stealth Hitches Wiring Kit
    Thanks for reaching out! The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK47FR is a little more plug and play compared to the wiring that comes with the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH98VR, the wiring kits can't really be swapped out and unfortunately the Stealth Hitches kit has enough parts in it to warrant the need of the whole kit (like the ball mount and safety chain loops). What you can do to mitigate the amount of splicing is get the...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2018 BMW X5
    No, the Ball Mount for Stealth Hitches Hidden Receiver Hitch # 391BMU7S is not going to fit your 2018 BMW X5. The only ball mount that fits your Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH52VR would be the one included in the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH98VR. Realistically, the only thing you can do is swap your hitch out with a regular hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13077 and use a ball mount...

  • How to Use Trailer 4-way Plug with Stealth Hitch 7-way Plug on 2017 BMW X5
    The Stealth Hitches # SH98VR only comes with a 7 way trailer plug included but you can use a trailer with a 4 way plug with an adapter like the Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole with Tester and Cover # 47345. This would be the best solution and it comes with a tester included on the adapter so you'll always know that everything is functioning perfectly.

  • Parts Needed To Tow A Trailer For A 2018 BMW X5 With A Stealth Hitch Hitch Rack Receiver
    Hi Gary, If you do have the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH56VR installed on your 2018 BMW X5 then you'll need the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring Kit # SH98VR in order to tow a trailer. This kit will come with the ball mount attachment as well as the wiring needed to pass your traffic signals back to the tail lights of the trailer.

  • Which Stealth Hitch Wiring/Towing Accessory Kit for Stealth Hitch on 2017 BMW X5 M
    The correct ball mount/wiring package for the # SH56VR Stealth Hitch for a 2017 BMW X5 is part # SH98VR. The # SH49FR is for a current Jeep Grand Cherokee model and wouldn't work on your BMW. I've linked to an installation video for the hitch.

  • Does Stealth Hitch for 2016 BMW X5 Require Trimming Rear Bumper
    The Stealth part # SH98VR that you referenced is the hitch opening and trailer wiring add-on for the Stealth hitch # SH56VR that fits your 2016 BMW X5 which we also carry as a complete kit with part # SH52VR. This does not require trimming or cutting of the bumper fascia but the hitch body/tube does replace the rear bumper beam of the vehicle.
