Installation

Trailering puts a strain on your towing vehicle. And it can put a real strain on your nerves if you're not set up right. You need a properly-engineered hitch with the appropriate rating for the weight of your fully-laden trailer. If your trailer is big enough, add in a trailer brake controller and the wiring to it, and perhaps a weight-distributing hitch. All that gear needs to be installed and rigged by someone knowledgeable in trailering. Draw-Tite has a hitch receiver for your vehicle that will allow you to tow the maximum amount permitted by the vehicle manufacturer safely. They also have hitch balls and ball mounts for every class of towing, and a full catalog of other gear that will make your trailering as safe and as easy as possible.

Hooked on the Hitch
The hitch arrived at my door in a very reasonable time. All the parts were accounted for. The ease of installation was excellent. Looks good on my vehicle.

Great Deal
Replace OEM Class 1 hitch with this unit. Had no issues. 2010 Escape rides better with the Draw-Tite hitch than the OEM.

Looks Very Nice on Our Ford Escape
The hitch was easy to install, and the price was affordable! The hitch was built with quality workmanship and speaks for itself! We were very pleased with everything from the time we placed our order up to seeing the hitch on our Escape.

Easy as Can Be!
When they say no drill, they mean it. They included Everything needed to do the installation, except the socket wrench! This was a great buy! Furthermore, I ordered this first from a competitor only to find out a few days later it was out of stock and I needed to wait a month or two. I got this so fast after I ordered... it was incredible!

Fit...Not Perfect but It Works
You have to cut the excesses on each side of the hitch, otherwise it rubs the muffler pipes. Then, the spare tire must be deflated to 50% so that it will fit back into place. This work must be done by a professional.

Very Nice Trailer Hitch
Finally got around to installing it. It looks great on my Colorado. I chose this one as the weight capacity is greater than the Colorado is ratted for, I'm a big believer in a little stronger is always the way to go. My 1/2 inch pneumatic impact gun picked this job to break, so I used hand tools. Have a big breaker bar as Chevy uses a thread locker and they fight you. (buying a new 1/2 impact today). I used my ramps and backed my Colorado just part way up to increase my working room and then varied my height as needed. (do not forget to chalk the wheels) The two vertical side plates are custom-made for the frame so it's important to have an assistant to help slide it into place as trying to do it by myself was impossible, as if it's just a little cocked it's a no-go. We even lubricated the plates and frame beams to help. But, that said there is nothing wrong with a nice tight fit.

Easy Peazy Installation
No cutting or drilling. Hardest part was holding the hitch up (on my back) while trying to install the washers and nuts.

Great Product
Fast shipping. Easy to follow instructions. A grinder definitely makes installation easier.
