These dependable custom hitches are manufactured for 2005-2023 Chrysler 300, 2008-2023 Dodge Challenger, 2006-2023 Dodge Charger, 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum and attach to your vehicle?s frame or bumper for a sleek, clean appearance. Each hitch also has a 1-1/4 inch square receiver tube opening so you can easily attach accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, or a utility trailer. DRAW-TITE Class 2 custom trailer hitches come complete with all the mounting hardware needed for installation and are backed by a nationwide lifetime limited warranty. So, whether you are headed out to the campground and need a place for the cooler, taking the bikes to hit the trails in the park, or you are tackling a DIY project (maybe some landscaping or a home repair), choose DRAW-TITE and travel with confidence knowing your setup is connected with the security only DRAW-TITE can provide. 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.

The 36548 hitch fits 2008-Current Dodge Challenger models, with one important exception: it does NOT fit Challengers with quad exhaust tips. Check your vehicle's exhaust configuration before purchasing. For the most current application information and trim level compatibility, visit the Cequent website.
Yes, the 36548 hitch is compatible with 2005-Current Chrysler 300 models. For the most up-to-date information regarding specific trim levels and current application years, visit the Cequent website.
No. The 36548 hitch is compatible with 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum models only. A 2004 model year is outside the supported range.
The 36548 is a weight-carrying hitch with a maximum gross trailer weight of 3500 lb (1587 kg) and maximum tongue weight of 300 lb (136 kg). However, you must not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits. Always consult your vehicle's owner manual for its specific towing capacity.
Required tools include: ratchet, torque wrench, safety glasses, sockets (8mm, 13mm, 15mm, 18mm, and 3/4 inch), socket extension, universal joint, flat-head screwdriver, and plastic trim tools. A 10mm socket is also needed if fascia removal is required on your vehicle.
The fastener kit (36548F) includes: (3) carriage bolts ½"-13 x 1.50 GR5, (3) spacers 1" x 3", (3) hex nuts ½", (4) conical tooth washers ½", (1) bolt M12 CL10.9, and (3) fish wires ½-13. All fasteners are provided; no factory fasteners are reused for the hitch attachment.
Muffler removal is required only for 2011 and newer vehicles. For pre-2011 models, the exhaust is simply lowered by removing the hangers; the muffler stays in place. For 2011 and newer models, the muffler must be completely removed from the vehicle.
Fascia removal is required only for vehicles with welded exhaust systems where the exhaust tips are riveted to the fascia. For vehicles with exhaust that separates at the rear, fascia removal is not necessary. On Chrysler 300/300C models with welded exhaust, plastic appearance panels covering the trunk pan must be removed and returned to the vehicle owner.
For 2011 and newer models, the vehicle must be raised a minimum of 20 inches (measured from the bottom of the fascia to the ground) to allow access to the frame rails. Pre-2011 models do not have a specified minimum clearance requirement, but working space beneath the vehicle is necessary.
Yes. The manual states: "If you do not feel comfortable performing this installation on your own or are in need of assistance, please contact a professional installer." Installation time averages 30 minutes for exhaust that separates at the rear, or 50 minutes for welded exhaust assemblies requiring fascia removal. Professional installation is especially recommended if you are inexperienced with vehicle modifications.
All ½" fasteners (carriage bolts and hex nuts) must be torqued to 75 ft-lb (102 N·m). Proper torque is critical to keep the hitch securely mounted to the vehicle when towing.
The M12 CL10.9 bolt must be torqued to 68 ft-lb (92 N·m). This bolt connects the hitch to the existing weldnut on the frame rail.
Use fish wire (½-13) to route the ½" carriage bolts and spacers through the access holes on both the driver and passenger side frame rails. Pull the hardware through the existing holes. Install (2) bolts on the passenger side and (1) bolt on the driver side. Kink the fish wire to keep the spacer independent of the bolt during routing.
The conical tooth washer must be installed with the teeth side facing against the hitch. This applies to both the ½" conical tooth washers and the M12 conical tooth washer.
Lower the exhaust by removing (2) exhaust hangers per side using a 13mm socket. This allows access to the frame rails. After the hitch is installed and torqued, re-install the exhaust hangers. Spraying lubricant or soapy water on the metal hanger rod and rubber isolator helps with removal.
Run the M12 bolt into the existing weldnut to clean dirt or debris from the weldnut before final installation. This ensures a clean connection and proper torque.
On 2011 and newer V8 models, you must remove and save (2) assembly bolts and springs from the flange (nut and spring are attached). Carefully remove the muffler from the driver's side. These bolts and springs must be saved and reinstalled when the muffler is replaced.
On 2011 and newer V6 models, you must remove and save the band clamp, separate the exhaust pipes, and remove the muffler. The band clamp is located just before the "Y" connection on the exhaust. Carefully remove the muffler from the driver's side. The band clamp must be saved for reinstallation.
Remove the plastic expansion fasteners holding the wheel well liner to the fascia on each side. Pull back the wheel well liner to access the hidden screw (10mm socket) holding the upper portion of the fascia to the quarter panel on each side. Remove the remaining screws and plastic expansion fasteners along the bottom of the fascia, including the 10mm nuts holding the underbody panel to the trunk pan. Gently remove the fascia and unplug the wiring. Set the bumper fascia aside.
On Chrysler 300/300C models, remove the plastic appearance panels that cover the trunk pan. After installation is complete, return these appearance panels and fasteners to the vehicle owner.
Always wear safety glasses when installing the hitch. Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle. 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 damaged hitch or ball must be removed and replaced immediately.
Load the trailer heavier in front. Do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or the hitch limits (3500 lb GVWR, 300 lb tongue weight). Always wear your seatbelt. Slow down when towing and never exceed posted speed limits. If excessive sway occurs, take your foot off the gas pedal and hold the steering wheel as steady as possible. Do not apply brakes and do not speed up.
Check that all fasteners are tight and the hitch is securely mounted to the vehicle. Verify that the ½" fasteners are torqued to 75 ft-lb (102 N·m) and the M12 bolt is torqued to 68 ft-lb (92 N·m). Ensure the exhaust hangers are reinstalled. Check that the bumper fascia and wiring are properly reinstalled if they were removed.
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 before towing is recommended to ensure the hitch remains securely mounted to the vehicle.
The 36548 is a weight-carrying hitch only. Weight-distributing capability is listed as N/A in the manual. If you need weight-distributing functionality, this hitch is not suitable for that application.
The authorized drawbar kit is part number 36061, sold separately. The drawbar must be used in the RISE position only. Consult the 36061 installation instructions for proper installation and use.
The 36548 fits 2006-Current Dodge Charger, 2005-Current Chrysler 300, 2008-Current Dodge Challenger (except quad exhaust models), and 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum. Check your vehicle's exhaust configuration and visit the Cequent website for the most current trim level compatibility.
You need a ratchet, torque wrench, safety glasses, sockets (8mm, 13mm, 15mm, 18mm, 3/4 inch), socket extension, universal joint, flat-head screwdriver, and plastic trim tools. A 10mm socket is needed if fascia removal is required.
Muffler removal is required only for 2011 and newer vehicles. Pre-2011 models require only exhaust lowering by removing hangers.
For 2011 and newer models, the vehicle must be raised a minimum of 20 inches (bottom of fascia to ground). Pre-2011 models require working space beneath the vehicle but have no specified minimum clearance.
Torque all ½" fasteners to 75 ft-lb (102 N·m) and the M12 bolt to 68 ft-lb (92 N·m). Proper torque is critical for towing safety.
Maximum gross trailer weight is 3500 lb (1587 kg) and maximum tongue weight is 300 lb (136 kg). Do not exceed the lower of your vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
Always wear safety glasses during installation. Do not cut access holes with a torch. Check fasteners frequently. Do not exceed towing capacity. Load trailers heavier in front. Wear seatbelt and slow down when towing.
The T-Connector is an electrical adapter that integrates your vehicle's taillight wiring with a trailer connection. It allows you to connect a trailer to your vehicle's existing lighting system by tapping into the taillight circuits. The connector uses color-coded wires (yellow, green, and white) to match your vehicle's lighting circuits and ground.
The manual does not specify which vehicle models, years, or body styles the T-Connector fits. Contact the manufacturer or your retailer with your vehicle's year, make, model, and body style (sedan, truck, SUV, etc.) to confirm compatibility before purchase.
You will need a drill with a 3/32" drill bit and a Phillips head screwdriver. The manual recommends these tools for drilling the grounding hole and securing fasteners.
The T-Connector includes an eyelet and screw for securing the white ground wire to the vehicle frame or crossmember. The manual does not specify whether additional fasteners or connectors are included.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or a qualified installer for guidance on electrical safety before beginning installation.
The vehicle wiring is located inside the vehicle's trunk, behind the taillights. You will access it by removing plastic wing nuts located behind the taillights and carefully pulling back the carpet to expose the taillight wiring.
1. Remove plastic wing nuts behind the taillights and pull back the carpet to expose the taillight wiring. 2. Starting with the driver's side, slide the red locking tab on the harness connector to the unlocked position and disconnect the wire harness from the sockets. 3. Attach the T-Connector end containing the yellow wire to the driver's side, ensuring connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. 4. Route the connector containing the green wire down the threshold to the passenger side and repeat the connection process. 5. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt before connecting.
Slide the red locking tab on the harness connector to the unlocked position and disconnect the wire harness from the sockets. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt. Attach each end of the T-Connector to the corresponding connection points—the yellow wire end to the driver's side and the green wire end to the passenger side. Push the connectors fully into place until the locking tabs engage. Do not force the connectors; they should seat smoothly when properly aligned.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire. The hole is drilled into a suitable grounding point such as the vehicle frame or crossmember near the adapter. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed. Always verify what is behind any surface before drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle and personal injury.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the adapter, such as the vehicle frame or crossmember. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area before drilling. Drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
Use a 3/32" drill bit to create the grounding hole for the white wire eyelet.
Route the connector containing the green wire down the threshold to the passenger side of the vehicle. Push the wiring between the vehicle body and carpet to conceal it. Then repeat the connection process for the green wire end at the passenger side taillight.
After drilling a 3/32" hole into a suitable grounding point (vehicle frame or crossmember), secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided with the T-Connector. The eyelet slides over the screw, which is then fastened into the drilled hole.
After completing all electrical connections, replace the carpet, wing nuts, and any other clips or panels that were removed during installation. Be careful not to cut or pinch the wires when reinstalling these components.
Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or the following limits: 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.
The maximum is 1 stop/turn light per side at 7.5 amps. Do not exceed this rating or the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating, as overloading the circuit can cause fires.
The maximum is 7.5 amps for tail lights. Do not exceed this rating or the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating, as overloading the circuit can cause fires.
All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. Test and verify the installation with a test light or by connecting an actual trailer once installed. This ensures all wiring is properly connected and the lighting circuits are functioning correctly.
Yes. All connector surfaces should be clean and free of dirt before attaching the T-Connector. This ensures proper electrical contact and reliable function.
Yes. Before drilling the grounding hole, clean dirt and rustproofing from the area where you will attach the white ground wire. This ensures a good electrical connection.
Before drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle and personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed. Take time to identify the location of fuel lines, brake lines, electrical wiring, and other components that could be damaged.
The manual does not specify vehicle compatibility. Contact the manufacturer or retailer with your vehicle's year, make, model, and body style to confirm fitment.
Maximum 7.5 amps for tail lights and 7.5 amps for stop/turn lights (1 per side). Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or these limits.
The T-Connector uses yellow, green, and white wires. Yellow and green connect to the taillight circuits (driver and passenger sides), and white is the ground wire.
