Question:

I recently had an accident where my hitch receiver was struck. It did not damage hitch, though the frame got bent and mounting bolts were damaged. I want to reattach hitch, but I need new mounting hardware. Is it available?

Expert Reply:

We do offer replacement hardware for Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 36501. You will need part # RHK. On the product page, under the Shipping Special box, enter the hitch model number, in this case 36501. In the next box under that, choose the manufacturer from the pull down menu. In this case, select Draw-Tite. Click the Add to Cart button and you are done.

I recommend visiting a dealer or a qualified shop to determine if the hitch can be safely attached to the damaged frame, and if so, will it be safe for towing. Additional repairs to the frame may be required to safely install and use the hitch after an accident. I have included a link to the installation details for the 36501 trailer hitch below for reference.
