DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch
Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

If you have a different truck bed style or a different vehicle brand, this adapter will not fit. Check your vehicle's model and bed type before purchasing.

The unit is rated for 7.5 amps per circuit. Do not exceed this rating, as it may damage the adapter or create a fire hazard.
The manual specifies that you will need a test light or trailer to test the installation after completion. No other tools are explicitly listed. Depending on your vehicle, you may need basic hand tools to remove trim panels and tail light assemblies, but the manual does not detail these.
Remove both tail light assemblies and locate the vehicle's wiring harness. There will be connection points on each side of the vehicle matching the ends of the T-connector adapter.
Partially remove the rear interior plastic trim panels on the driver's (left) side and open the vehicle's jack storage compartment to expose the openings to the tail light assemblies. Also remove the threshold cover plate between the rear doors.
Partially remove the trunk lining to expose the grommets accessing the tail lights. Remove and slit the grommet to allow wires to pass into the tail light openings.
From underneath the vehicle, locate the access hole into the tail light openings. There will be an access hole on each side of the vehicle.
The T-connector end containing the green wire is routed from the passenger side. This connector is plugged between the separated halves of the vehicle's center black wiring harness connector at the tail light assembly.
The T-connector end containing the yellow wire is routed across the vehicle under the threshold cover and out through the tail light opening on the driver's side. This connector is plugged between the separated halves of the vehicle's center black wiring harness connector at the tail light assembly.
Route the yellow wire across the vehicle under the threshold cover that was removed in step 2. Then route the T-connector end containing the yellow wire out from inside the vehicle through the tail light opening.
Disconnect the vehicle's center black wiring harness connector from the tail light assembly, being careful not to damage the locking tabs. Plug the T-connector connector between these separated halves. Repeat this process for both the green wire connector (passenger side) and the yellow wire connector (driver's side).
The manual warns to be careful not to damage the locking tabs when disconnecting the vehicle's center black wiring harness connector. If the tabs are damaged, the connector may not hold securely. Do not proceed; contact the manufacturer or a qualified technician for repair or replacement of the connector.
Test the installation with a test light or trailer. The manual does not specify the exact testing procedure, so consult the test light or trailer manufacturer's instructions for proper use.
Tuck the yellow wire under the threshold panel and secure it. Then reinstall the plastic trim panel, jack storage panel grommets, and tail lights.
The T-connector fits Ford Vans, Expedition, Navigator, Escort, Tracer, and F-150 Pickups with Flareside beds only. Check your vehicle model and bed type before purchasing.
The unit is rated for 7.5 amps per circuit. Do not exceed this rating.
