How Far From Rear Bumper is Curt/etrailer Hitch Hitch Pin Center for 2018 Cadillac XT5
Updated 01/19/2026 | Published 08/03/2024 >
Question:
2018 Cadillac XT5 trailer hitch. If the Etrailer brand and the Curt brand are the exact same, is the center of the pin to the rear of the bumper the stated 5.5inch or the stated 6? My bike hitch needs to know. You have conflicting information if the hitches are the same.

Hey Patrick, so when we installed the Curt hitch part # C13285 on a similar 2018 Cadillac XT5 we found there was 5-3/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer edge of the rear bumper.

Hey Patrick, how did that 5-3/4 inch measurement work out for your bike hitch on the XT5? Knowing if that clearance fit your setup could help others comparing the Curt and etrailer hitches.
