Helpful Expert Reply:

The etrailer # e98ZR is comparable to the Curt # c31006 you'd mentioned, but I'd stick with the etrailer version.

The reason for this is the etrailer version comes with a hitch aligner so that the hitch pin hole always aligns perfectly, and it uses an anti-rattle hitch pin to keep the carrier from moving around. In comparison the Curt version uses a standard hitch pin with no anti-rattle, and no hitch aligner.

Both work with the same bolt patterns/wheel sizes, so you're not giving anything up there.
