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.

However, installation steps vary depending on your model year (2004 and older vs. 2005 and newer) and wheelbase (short vs. long), so confirm your specific configuration before beginning installation.
Yes, the hitch is compatible with all-wheel drive models. However, all-wheel drive installation requires additional steps: the exhaust hanger bracket must be passed through a 3" long slot in the side bracket, and two 1/4" blocks must be used to reattach the exhaust hanger bracket, as shown in Figures 2 and 3. This applies to Buick and all-wheel drive models only.
The maximum towing capacity depends on the hitch type. Weight Distributing hitches have a maximum gross trailer weight of 5000 lb (2270 kg) and maximum tongue weight of 500 lb (227 kg). Weight Carrying Ball Mount hitches have a maximum gross trailer weight of 3500 lb (1589 kg) and maximum tongue weight of 350 lb (159 kg). Do not exceed the lower of the towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
You will need the following wrenches: 10mm, 15mm, 3/4", 7/8", and 17mm. You will also need a 1/2" drill bit and a torque wrench. A 1/2" pull wire is provided with the hitch. A drill is required to create holes in the vehicle frame rails.
The fastener kit (51079F) includes: (2) 1/4" × 1.50" × 2.00" blocks, (5) M10 × 1.50" × 35mm CL 10.9 bolts, (3) 1/2" lock washers, (2) 1/2-13 handle nut assemblies, (2) 1/2-13" × 1.50" GR5 bolts, (1) 1/4" × 1.50" × 2.00" block, (1) 1/2-13 hex nut, (1) 1/2-13" × 2.00" GR5 carriage bolt, (4) 1/4" × 2.00" × 2.00" blocks, (1) U-block, and (5) 3/8" conical washers. Some bolts or blocks will not be used depending on your vehicle application.
Yes. As the first step, lower the vehicle exhaust by lowering the exhaust hanger on the passenger side. This provides clearance for hitch installation. After the hitch is installed, you will reattach the exhaust hanger in step 7.
Only if your vehicle is equipped with a load leveling compressor on the driver's side. If present, lower it using one M10 bolt and two M6 nuts. If necessary, trim the vertical tab on the compressor bracket to clear the adjacent M10 bolt. After hitch installation, you will reattach the compressor in step 7.
Yes. Using the rearmost holes in the hitch side brackets as a template, you must drill 1/2" holes in the vehicle frame rails. On 2004 and older long wheelbase models, you will also need to drill a 1/2" hole through the frame at the forwardmost hole on the passenger's side bracket. On 2004 and older short wheelbase models, the forwardmost hole will line up with an existing slot. On 2005 and newer models, the forwardmost slot will line up with an existing weldnut.
Only if necessary. If the vertical tab on the compressor bracket interferes with the adjacent M10 bolt, trim it to clear the bolt. This is not required on all vehicles.
No. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. Use a drill with a 1/2" drill bit instead.
1. Lower the exhaust hanger on the passenger side. 2. If present, lower the load leveling compressor on the driver's side. 3. Raise the hitch into position and install M10 × 1.50" × 35mm CL10.9 bolts and 3/8" conical washers into existing weldnuts on both sides. 4. Using the rearmost holes as a template, drill 1/2" holes in the frame rails. 5. On the passenger's side, use the provided pull wire to route the carriage bolt and blocks through the existing slot, then secure with blocks, lock washers and nuts (configuration varies by model year and wheelbase). 6. Install handle nuts and hex bolts through the rearmost holes on both sides. 7. Reattach the exhaust hanger and load leveling compressor. 8. Tighten all fasteners to specification using a torque wrench.
Use the provided 1/2" pull wire to fish the carriage bolt and blocks through the existing slot in the frame rail down into the forwardmost hole. The exact block configuration depends on your model year and wheelbase: on 2004 and older short wheelbase models, place two blocks between the frame rail and hitch; on 2004 and older long wheelbase models, place two blocks between the hitch and lock washer; on 2005 and newer models, install an M10 × 1.50" × 35mm CL10.9 bolt and 3/8" conical washer through the vehicle fender support bar, then through the slot in the hitch and into the existing weldnut in the frame.
Install the handle nuts through the square hole inside the vehicle frame rail on both sides. Then install a hex bolt and lock washer through the rearmost hole (drilled in step 4) on both sides.

The T-Connector is a taillight integration harness that allows a trailer to connect to a vehicle's existing taillight wiring. It plugs between the vehicle's taillight socket and wiring harness, routing power to a 4-flat connector for the trailer while maintaining the vehicle's original taillight function. All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly.
The manual does not specify which vehicle models, years, cab styles, or bed lengths are compatible with this T-Connector. Contact the manufacturer or consult a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle before purchasing.
You will need: T-30 Torx bit and driver, trim panel remover, Phillips head screwdriver, and a drill with a 3/32" drill bit. These tools are required for removing taillight assemblies, accessing interior trim, and drilling the grounding hole if an existing ground stud is not available.
The T-Connector includes an eyelet and screw for securing the white ground wire, and cable ties for securing the harness under the bumper. The manual does not specify the quantity of cable ties or other hardware details.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or contact the manufacturer for guidance on electrical safety before beginning installation.
No. The first step requires opening the tailgate to access and remove the vehicle's taillight assemblies by removing the two T-30 Torx head bolts on each side.
1. Remove the vehicle's taillight assemblies by removing the two T-30 Torx head bolts on each side. 2. Disconnect the wire harness from both taillight sockets. 3. Plug the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the mating plugs on the driver's side taillight socket and vehicle wiring harness. 4. Repeat this connection on the passenger's side with the T-Connector end containing the green wire. All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly.
From the driver's side, route the T-Connector end with the green wire and the 4-flat connector down through the opening between the vehicle bumper and body. Route the green wire end to the passenger's side and route the 4-flat connector underneath the bumper. Route the green wire end up through the opening on the passenger side, being careful to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any other points that may pinch or break the wire. An optional interior routing is available: route the wire inside the vehicle through interior trim panels and down the threshold plate, then up and through the passenger side trim panel and out through the grommet hole.
Secure the remainder of the T-Connector harness under the bumper with the cable ties provided, being careful to avoid any areas that would cut or pinch the wire. When reinstalling trim panels and taillight housings, position the vehicle wiring harness between the housing and the vehicle body, and be careful not to pinch or cut the wires.
Only if a suitable existing ground stud is not available near the connector. If you must drill, you will drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Before drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces.
The standard installation does not require interior trim removal; the harness routes through the opening between the bumper and body. However, an optional interior routing is available that requires partially removing lower interior trim panels on each side of the vehicle. You may choose either routing method based on your preference.
The manual does not specify a torque value for the T-30 Torx head bolts that secure the taillight assemblies. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for the correct torque specification.
The T-Connector has a yellow wire end that connects to the driver's side taillight socket, a green wire end that connects to the passenger's side taillight socket, a white wire that serves as the ground connection, and a 4-flat connector that connects to the trailer. The manual does not specify the individual functions of the yellow and green wires beyond their connection points.
Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or: maximum 1 stop/turn light per side at 7.5 amps, and maximum tail lights at 7.5 amps. Overloading the circuit can cause fires. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual and instruction sheet for additional information on your specific towing capacity.
Avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and any other points that may pinch or break the wire. Do not pinch or cut wires when reinstalling plastic trim panels, thresholds, storage covers, or floor coverings. Secure wires under the bumper with cable ties to prevent damage. When drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury, and do not drill into any exposed surfaces.
Test and verify installation with a test light or trailer once installed. All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. If using a test light, check that all trailer lights illuminate correctly. If using a trailer, verify that all brake lights, turn signals, and tail lights function as expected.
The manual does not specify any post-installation maintenance, retorque intervals, or periodic inspection requirements. Consult the manufacturer or your vehicle's owner's manual for guidance on long-term maintenance.
The manual does not specify compatible vehicle models or years. Contact the manufacturer or check a fitment database with your vehicle's year, make, model, cab style, and bed length to confirm compatibility.
Yes. You must open the tailgate and remove the taillight assemblies by removing two T-30 Torx bolts on each side to access the taillight sockets.
Only if an existing ground stud is not available. If drilling is needed, you drill a single 3/32" hole for the white ground wire. Always verify what is behind the surface before drilling.
Do not exceed 7.5 amps per stop/turn light (1 per side) or 7.5 amps for tail lights, or your vehicle's towing manufacturer rating, whichever is lower. Overloading can cause fires.
Test with a test light or trailer to verify all connections are complete and functioning. Check that brake lights, turn signals, and tail lights work correctly.
Avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tanks, and pinch points. Do not drill into exposed surfaces. Secure wires with provided cable ties to prevent damage.
Verify that all connections are complete. The manual states that all connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. Check that the yellow wire is fully plugged into the driver's side taillight socket and vehicle wiring harness, and that the green wire is fully plugged into the passenger's side taillight socket and vehicle wiring harness. Test with a test light or trailer to confirm all lights function. If connections are complete and lights still do not work, consult the manufacturer.
Stop using the T-Connector immediately to prevent electrical shorts or fires. Reroute the wires to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and any other pinch points. Use the optional interior routing if exterior routing is causing pinch points. Secure all wires with the provided cable ties under the bumper. Inspect the wires for damage; if insulation is compromised, contact the manufacturer for a replacement.
