Question:

Do you have a receiver for a Jeep grand cherokee 75th anniversary that goes into the Bezel so that it looks like a factory hitch. I am finding a lot that hang below and can be seem under the bezel.

Expert Reply:

Most of the hitches designed for the 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee, excluding the SRT-8 and diesel models, have a similar appearance. They show the cross bar that the square receiver is welded to. However the Draw-Tite # 75699 is welded under the cross bar so there is minimum showing at the center under the lower fascia. (I think this is what you are calling the bezel.) I have attached a picture below showing this.

If you want something this is truly hidden then you should consider the Stealth # SH64FR Hidden Receiver. I have attached a video below that demonstrates this. The 2" square rack receiver is for accessories only, like a bike rack or cargo carrier. If you wish to tow with your Jeep you will need to purchase the Stealth # SH49FR Ball Mount which includes a 2" hitch ball. Many of our Stealth customers like to use the optional Stealth # 391CASER case to carry their hitch parts.

If you plan to tow a small trailer you will additionally need a trailer lighting wiring harness like the Tekonsha # 118727 if your Jeep is not already equipped with a flat 4-pole connector. I have included a install video for this item. I like that this kit runs a wire directly to the battery instead of putting a greater electrical load on the existing lighting wiring.
