Made from welded steel with a black premium finish, the Hidden Hitch series of hitches are custom designed to ensure a superior fit for each make and model vehicle. Each Hidden Hitch is designed with a two-inch receiver opening to fit a number of different accessory attachments like bike racks, cargo carriers, and more! Draw-Tite Hidden Hitches are rated for 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight (GTW) and are best suited for use with accessories or light-duty towing. The integrated anti-theft lockable receiver ensures added safety when the hitch is in use, while the included anti-rattle hitch pin provides premium performance and security. When you are not using the Hidden Hitch, you can store the removeable receiver, anti-rattle pin, and weather covers in the hard sided carrying case that is included with your purchase.
These dependable, premium custom hitches are manufactured for 2011-2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2022-2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee WK and attach to your vehicle?s frame behind the bumper for a luxuriously clean appearance. Hidden Hitch trailer hitches have a sleek black powder coat finish for superior rust and corrosion resistance and come complete with all the mounting hardware needed for installation. Plus, each hitch is tested to meet - and exceed - V-5 and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide lifetime limited warranty.
So, take that extra cooler out to the lake, hit the bike trails in the park, or hook up that utility trailer and tackle your honey-do home repairs. When you are done, remove the evidence (i.e., the removeable receiver), and go for a cruise. With the Hidden Hitch, you can do it all! Brought to you by 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 76913 is designed for 2011-Current Jeep Grand Cherokee models. However, the manual recommends visiting the website for the most up-to-date information regarding specific application years and trim levels, as fitment may vary.
The 76913 is a Weight Carrying hitch with a maximum Gross Trailer Weight (GVWR) of 3,500 lb (1,589 kg) and a maximum tongue weight of 350 lb (159 kg). However, you must not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
You will need: a ratchet, torque wrench, safety glasses, sockets (18 mm and 21 mm), a 6-inch socket extension, and a 21 mm socket for removing factory bolts. A torque wrench is essential for tightening fasteners to the correct specifications.
Fastener kit 76913F includes: (2) M12×1.75×100 mm CL10.9 bolts, (2) 7/16-inch flat washers (Part #0116007), (2) M12×1.75 CL10 prevailing torque nuts, (1) warning card, and (2) warning labels. The installation also reuses the 4 existing factory M14 bolts from the vehicle frame rails.
Yes. You must remove the 4 existing M14 factory bolts from inside the frame rails using a 21 mm socket. Keep these bolts for reinstallation, as they are reused to secure the hitch to the vehicle.
All M14 factory fasteners must be tightened to 115 Ft.-Lb. (156 N·M) using a torque wrench. Proper torque is essential to keep the hitch secure to the vehicle when towing.
The M12 bolt, flat washer, and prevailing torque nut that attach the housing to the hitch must be tightened to 92 Ft.-Lb. (125 N·M).
Unlock the blue handle using the attached key, then remove the housing from the receiver by pressing the blue handle and rotating it clockwise until you hear a click sound. This allows access to install the weather covers and attach the housing to the hitch.
Lower the hitch and scrape away the excess caulking from the frame rails. This will allow the hitch to slide properly between the inside of the frame rails during installation.
The average installation time for professional installers is 30 minutes. If you do not feel comfortable performing the installation yourself or need assistance, the manual recommends contacting a professional installer.
Always wear your seatbelt. Load the trailer heavier in front. Do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or the hitch's 3,500 lb GVWR limit. Slow down when towing and never exceed posted speed limits. If excess sway occurs, take your foot off the gas pedal and hold the steering wheel steady—do not apply brakes or speed up.
Check that all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual recommends checking the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners remain tight during use. Proper torque is essential to keep the hitch secure to the vehicle when towing.
The manual recommends checking the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. Periodic checks are necessary to maintain the security of the hitch during towing.
No. The manual explicitly states: DO NOT cut, weld or modify this receiver. Doing so may compromise the structural integrity and safety of the hitch.
A damaged hitch or ball must be removed and replaced. Do not attempt to repair or continue using a damaged component, as it may fail during towing and create a safety hazard.
If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes. This protects the vehicle's interior from damage.
The 76913 hitch accepts ball mounts with a maximum length of 10.5 inches (measured from the center of the ball hole to the center of the pin hole) and a minimum rise of 0.75 inches (measured from the top of the shank to the top of the ball platform). Ball mounts are sold separately.
Two quick-link safety chain attachment options are available (sold separately): #49131 (5/16 inch) with a maximum GVWR of 3,500 lb, and #44133 (3/8 inch) with a maximum GVWR of 3,500 lb.
During installation, loosely install the factory M14 bolts to the hitch first. Then tighten all M14 fasteners to 115 Ft.-Lb. (156 N·M) using a torque wrench. The M12 housing bolts should be tightened to 92 Ft.-Lb. (125 N·M).
Proper torque is needed to keep the hitch secure to the vehicle when towing. Fasteners that are not tightened to specification may loosen during use, compromising the safety of the hitch and creating a risk of trailer separation.

The kit includes the T-One® Connector with yellow and green wire leads, a 4-flat connector, a white ground wire with eyelet and screw, and hardware for securing the ground connection. A bracket for mounting the 4-flat connector is not provided and must be sourced separately.
You will need: a trim panel remover, a drill with a 3/32" drill bit, a Phillips head screwdriver, and a test probe. A fish wire is recommended (but not required) to help route the harness through tight spaces between the taillight pocket and rear fascia.
The manual does not explicitly state whether battery disconnection is required before installation. However, it does require resetting the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key for the initial test after installation. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or the manufacturer for pre-installation battery safety procedures.
Starting on the driver's side underneath the vehicle, route the harness containing the yellow wire up through the opening between the vehicle bumper and body to the driver's side taillight pocket. The manual recommends using a fish wire between the taillight pocket and rear fascia to pull the harness through from underneath the vehicle. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt before inserting the T-One® Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle and taillight connector.
Route the harness with the green wire and 4-flat connector down along the rear bumper fascia to the center of the vehicle. Then route the harness containing the green wire underneath the vehicle up through the opening between the vehicle bumper and body to the passenger's side taillight pocket. Use a fish wire between the taillight pocket and rear fascia to pull the harness through. Insert the T-One® Connector end containing the green wire between the vehicle and taillight connector, ensuring all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt.
1. Open the tailgate. 2. Starting on the driver's side, locate and remove the clips holding the taillight assembly in place. 3. Repeat on the passenger's side. 4. Locate the taillight wiring connectors on both sides. 5. Disconnect the vehicle wiring harness from both taillight sockets, being careful not to break the locking tabs. 6. Set the taillights aside.
Drilling is required only if a suitable existing ground stud is not available near the connector. If you must drill, you will drill a single 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury, and do not drill into any exposed surfaces.
The T-One® Connector uses three wire colours: yellow (driver's side taillight connection), green (passenger's side taillight connection), and white (ground wire). The 4-flat connector is routed separately along the rear bumper fascia to the center of the vehicle.
Mount the 4-flat connector in the center of the vehicle in a suitable location. The manual does not specify an exact location or provide a bracket. You must source an appropriate bracket separately and select a location that is accessible and protected from damage.
If routing the wire through a grommet and along the exterior of the vehicle, be careful to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any other points that may pinch or break the wire. Additionally, before drilling any hole, verify what is behind the surface to prevent damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into exposed surfaces.
After installation, reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key. Then test and verify the installation using either a test light or by connecting an actual trailer. All connections must be complete for the T-One® Connector to function properly. The manual recommends using a test probe (included in required tools) to verify electrical continuity.
The manual does not state a specific amperage rating for the product. You must not exceed the lower of either the towing manufacturer's rating (including that in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the product itself. Overloading circuits can cause fires. Consult the product label and your vehicle's owner's manual for the exact amperage limit.
Yes. Before inserting the T-One® Connector ends into the vehicle and taillight connectors, ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt. This is required on both the driver's side (yellow wire) and passenger's side (green wire) connections.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing ground stud. If no suitable stud exists, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided in the kit. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area before securing. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed.
Secure all loose wires and mount the trailer tow harness in an accessible location using a bracket or electrical box. The manual does not provide specific bracket specifications, so you will need to source an appropriate bracket separately.
The manual confirms fitment for the Jeep Grand Cherokee. For other vehicles, contact the manufacturer or check the product fitment database, as the manual does not list additional applications.
