Question:

I have a 2023 Toyota Highlander XLE and I would like to put a trailer hitch on it. I have a full size spare, 20” , and I want to make sure I get a hitch that will fit around it. Do you all have a product that will fit? Thank you

Hi Nancy,

The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH35VR is going to be the only compatible trailer hitch that can accommodate a full size tire. This trailer hitch has a 5,000lbs gross towing capacity and 750lb tongue weight capacity, but you should still doublecheck the vehicle's capacity in the owner's manual. I've attached a short video below where Ryan will walk you through the installation process.
