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.

Yes, part number 75579 is designed for Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan, VW Routan, and Ram C/V Tradesman. The hitch uses existing frame bolts on your vehicle, so no additional drilling or frame modification is required.
Yes, part number 75579 is compatible with Dodge Grand Caravan. The installation uses existing bolts from your vehicle's frame rails, requiring no drilling or permanent modifications.
Yes, part number 75579 is compatible with VW Routan. The hitch attaches using existing frame bolts without requiring drilling or modifications.
Yes, part number 75579 is designed for Ram C/V Tradesman. Installation uses existing vehicle frame bolts with no drilling required.
You will need wrenches in 13mm, 15mm, and 18mm sizes, and a torque wrench. No drill bits are required. The installation uses existing bolts from your vehicle's frame rails.
Yes, a torque wrench is required. All M10 CL10.9 fasteners must be tightened to 53 Lb.-Ft. (72 N·M) and all M12 CL10.9 fasteners to 92 Lb.-Ft. (125 N·M). Hand tightening is not sufficient for final installation.
The fastener kit 75579F is available separately. However, the hitch installation primarily uses existing bolts removed from your vehicle's frame rails. The manual notes that the hitch uses all existing bolts on the vehicle.
The manual does not specify whether battery disconnection is required. Consult the manufacturer or a qualified installer for this information.
No, you do not need to remove the exhaust system. However, you must lower the exhaust by removing the bolt that attaches the rearmost hanger bracket to the passenger's side frame rail. Retain this bolt for reinstallation. After installing the hitch, raise the exhaust back into position and reinstall the bolt.
The plastic mud flap on the driver's side must be partially removed because the hitch must contact the metal frame directly. Remove the plastic rivet holding the mud flap to the frame. You may need to trim the corner of the plastic mud flap after installing the hitch. Do not reinstall the plastic rivet.
On some vehicles, air conditioning lines on the passenger side are very close to the hitch attachment point. You must be careful not to damage these lines when installing the hitch. The manual instructs you to snap a plastic loom in place over the air conditioning line on the passenger's side near the bolt if present.
Remove 3 bolts from the driver's side frame rail. The manual specifies (3) on driver's side and (2) on passenger's side. Retain all these bolts for hitch installation.
Remove 2 bolts from the passenger's side frame rail. Retain these bolts for hitch installation.
After raising the hitch into position and attaching it with the existing bolts removed in step 3, hand tighten the fasteners. This means tighten them by hand only, without a torque wrench. Do not apply full torque at this stage. Final tightening to specification occurs in step 6.
Pushing the hitch toward the driver's side ensures that the passenger's side bracket is up against the trunk pan. This positions the hitch correctly before final tightening of the fasteners.
Yes. The manual notes that rotating the exhaust hanger bracket before tightening will add clearance between the side bracket and the exhaust. This may be helpful if clearance is tight on your vehicle.
No, drilling is not required. The equipment list specifies 'Drill Bits: None'. The hitch uses existing bolts from your vehicle's frame rails.
You may need to trim the corner of the plastic mud flap after installing the hitch. This is not required on all vehicles but may be necessary depending on your specific vehicle. The manual states 'May have to trim plastic after Step (4).'
No. The manual explicitly states 'Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch.' This is a safety requirement.
All M10 CL10.9 fasteners must be tightened with a torque wrench to 53 Lb.-Ft. (72 N·M).
All M12 CL10.9 fasteners must be tightened with a torque wrench to 92 Lb.-Ft. (125 N·M).

The maximum tongue weight for a weight carrying ball mount is 400 Lb. (182 Kg.). Do not exceed the lower of the towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or this hitch rating.
Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes.
A hitch or ball which has been damaged should be removed and replaced. Do not continue to use a damaged hitch.
Check the hitch frequently, making sure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but regular inspection is required.
After installation, verify that all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. Check frequently to ensure they remain tight during use.
If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes.
Yes, part number 75579 is designed for all four of these vehicles. It uses existing frame bolts with no drilling required.
You need 13mm, 15mm, and 18mm wrenches, plus a torque wrench. No drill bits are required.
Yes, you must lower the exhaust by removing the bolt that attaches the rearmost hanger bracket to the passenger's side frame rail. After installing the hitch, raise the exhaust back and reinstall the bolt.
M10 CL10.9 fasteners: 53 Lb.-Ft. (72 N·M). M12 CL10.9 fasteners: 92 Lb.-Ft. (125 N·M). Use a torque wrench for final tightening.
Weight distributing: 5000 Lb. gross trailer weight, 500 Lb. tongue weight. Weight carrying ball mount: 4000 Lb. gross trailer weight, 400 Lb. tongue weight. Do not exceed the lower of the vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
Wear eye protection. Observe safety precautions when working beneath the vehicle. Do not use a torch to cut holes. Be careful not to damage air conditioning lines on the passenger side.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. If removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan to prevent water and exhaust fume entry.
Push the hitch toward the driver's side so that the passenger's side bracket is up against the trunk pan before tightening fasteners to specification. This positioning is required for proper installation.
Rotate the exhaust hanger bracket before tightening. This will add clearance between the side bracket and the exhaust. If clearance is still insufficient after rotation, consult the manufacturer or a qualified installer.
Trim the corner of the plastic mud flap as needed. The manual states 'May have to trim plastic after Step (4).' Ensure the hitch maintains contact with the metal frame.
Yes, the T-Connector is designed for Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Durango, Jeep Patriot, and Dodge Caliber. Installation involves removing the taillight housings and inserting the T-Connector between the vehicle wiring harness and taillight sockets.
Yes, the T-Connector is compatible with Jeep Patriot. The installation process differs slightly from other vehicles: you remove the taillight assembly by removing two clips rather than Torx screws, then insert the T-Connector between the vehicle wiring harness and taillight sockets.
Yes, the T-Connector is compatible with Dodge Caliber. Like the Jeep Patriot, the Caliber uses clips to hold the taillight assembly rather than Torx screws. Remove the two clips on each side, then insert the T-Connector between the vehicle wiring harness and taillight sockets.
Required tools are: trim panel remover, drill with 3/32" bit, Phillips head screwdriver, test probe, wire crimpers, wire cutters, and Torx-30 screwdriver. The Torx-30 is needed only for Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, and Dodge Durango; Jeep Patriot and Dodge Caliber use clips instead.
The T-Connector includes: yellow fuse holder with 10 amp fuse, yellow butt connectors, white wire with eyelet and screw for grounding, double-sided tape for module mounting, and cable ties for securing the harness. The 4-Flat connector bracket is not included and must be sourced separately.
Yes, you must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before beginning installation. This is done in Step 5 before connecting the fuse holder to the positive battery cable. After all connections are complete, reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 10 amp fuse.
Yes, you must remove the taillight housings to access the taillight sockets. For Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, and Dodge Durango, remove the T-30 Torx screws and carefully pry the housings rearward. For Jeep Patriot and Dodge Caliber, remove the two clips holding each taillight assembly and carefully pry the housings away from the vehicle.
Disconnect the vehicle wiring harness from both taillight sockets. Insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the mating plugs on the driver's side taillight socket and vehicle wiring harness. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt, and that connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat for the T-Connector end with the green wire on the passenger side.
On the driver's side, route the green wire T-Connector end and the 4-Flat connector wire down through the opening between the vehicle bumper and body. Route the green wire T-Connector end to the passenger side and route the 4-Flat underneath the bumper. Route the green wire up through the opening on the passenger side. Route the black 12 ga. wire from the front of the vehicle rearward along the frame rail, then to the rear driver's side and up through the hole between the rear bumper and body. Avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and any points that may pinch or break the wire.
Yes, you must drill one 3/32" hole for the ground wire. Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector (do not drill into vehicle floor or bed). Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area, then drill the hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse. The fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided with the product. After all connections are complete and the negative battery cable is reconnected, install the 10 amp fuse into the fuse holder.
The T-Connector uses four wire colors: yellow (driver's side taillight connection), green (passenger's side taillight connection), white (ground wire), and black (12 ga. power wire from battery). The yellow and green wires insert between the vehicle wiring harness and taillight sockets. The white wire connects to a ground point using an eyelet and screw. The black wire connects from the positive battery terminal (via fuse holder) to the red wire from the T-Connector black box using a yellow butt connector.
Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder provided. Cut the fuse holder wire and attach the ring terminal to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable. Connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 ga. wire using the yellow butt connector provided. After all other connections are complete, reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 10 amp fuse into the fuse holder.
Mount the T-Connector black box using the double-sided tape provided. The module must be mounted so that the epoxy side points toward the ground to prevent water buildup. A suitable location is typically under the vehicle or in the rear area near the taillight assembly.
Mount the 4-Flat connector in a suitable location under the vehicle. The bracket is not included with the T-Connector and must be sourced separately. Secure the 4-Flat connector harness under the bumper with the cable ties provided, being careful to avoid areas that would cut or pinch the wire.
After the T-Connector is fully installed and the black box is mounted, reinstall the taillight housing assemblies. Position the vehicle wiring harness between the housing and the vehicle body. Secure the remainder of the T-Connector harness under the bumper with the cable ties provided, being careful to avoid areas that would cut or pinch the wire. For Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, and Dodge Durango, reinstall the Torx screws. For Jeep Patriot and Dodge Caliber, reinstall the clips.
After installation is complete, test and verify the installation with a test light or trailer. All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. Use a test probe to verify that power is reaching the appropriate circuits before connecting a trailer.
Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating (including in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the product. The manual does not specify the exact amperage rating of the T-Connector itself; refer to the product label and your vehicle's owner's manual for the specific limits.
Always wear safety glasses during installation. Read and follow all warnings and cautions printed on the tow vehicle's battery. Verify what is behind any surface before drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into vehicle floor, bed, or exposed surfaces. Route wires carefully to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and any points that may pinch or break the wire. Ensure all connections are complete before testing.
Overloading circuits can cause fires. Do not exceed the stated product ratings or the towing manufacturer rating (whichever is lower). Always read your vehicle's owner's manual and the T-Connector instruction sheet for additional information on safe operating limits.
The T-Connector (118552-037) fits Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Durango, Jeep Patriot, and Dodge Caliber.
Yes, disconnect the negative battery cable before installation. Reconnect it after all connections are complete and the 10 amp fuse is installed.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse installed in the yellow fuse holder provided.
Verify that all connections are complete. Check that: (1) the yellow and green T-Connector ends are fully inserted into the taillight sockets with locking tabs in place, (2) the black power wire is connected to the red wire from the T-Connector black box using the yellow butt connector, (3) the white ground wire is securely fastened to a clean ground point, (4) the negative battery cable is reconnected, and (5) the 10 amp fuse is installed in the fuse holder. Test the installation with a test light or trailer.
Wires must be routed carefully to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and any points that may pinch or break the wire. Ensure the green wire is routed through the opening between the vehicle bumper and body, not along sharp edges. The 4-Flat connector should be routed underneath the bumper. Secure all wires under the bumper with the cable ties provided, being careful to avoid areas that would cut or pinch the wire. Reroute any wires that are in contact with sharp edges or moving parts.
The T-Connector black box must be mounted so that the epoxy side of the module points toward the ground. This orientation prevents water buildup. If water is already present, remount the module in the correct orientation using the double-sided tape provided.
