Are There Special Tools Needed to Install Draw Tite Hitch on 2007 Toyota Avalon

Question:

I have a 2007 Toyota Avalon and am looking to purchase the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4. Are there any other accessories that I will need to install this hitch? Thank you!

Hey Jordan, to install the Draw Tite hitch part # 24870 all you need is a 10 mm, 13 mm, and 14 mm wrench. You'll need a torque wrench too like the part # PT87ZR. No special tools or accessories needed!

@JordanB Glad to help! The largest cargo carrier we have for this size hitch is the Reese part # 63155 which measures 20 inch by 47 inch.

@JamesonC Thanks! I have a lawnmower that is 21 inches wide, so only one inch wider than the cargo carrier you referenced above. In you opinion do you think I will be able to use the cargo carrier for my lawnmower or do you think it's too small?
