Difference Between The Curt & etrailer Class III 2 Hitch Receiver

Question

Question:

It appears that the Curt C13382 and the eTrailer e98912 are the same except for paint color, i.e., the eTrailer hitch is a private label of the Curt product. Is this true and are there any other differences?

Both the Curt # C13382 and the etrailer # e98912 hitch are a 2" Class III hitch receiver that will provide a maximum gross trailer weight of 3,500 lbs and a maximum tongue weight of 525 lbs. You are correct, they are an identical hitch but our hitch receiver is a little less glossy which makes it hide the blemishes it get from just driving down the road. Ours will look newer, longer. Both do not come with any accessories # C45534 but do come with the hardware to install. Shane did make an installation video on a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek with the etrailer hitch and I've included it to help you with the install!

Hey Andrew, brand running boards that fit your 2020 Ford Transit T250 do require drilling like the part #RMK94PR. I wish there was a no-drill option but it's just not available on your vehicle as it doesn't have any brackets made for steps.
