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 a trailer wiring adapter for the Dodge Charger that allows you to connect a trailer to your vehicle's electrical system. It interfaces with your vehicle's taillight wiring harness and battery to provide power to trailer lights. The product includes a black box module, connectors with green and yellow wires, a fuse holder, cable ties, and double-sided tape for mounting.
Yes, the T-Connector (part number 118655-037) is designed for the Dodge Charger. The installation instructions are specific to this vehicle model. If you have a different vehicle, you will need to verify compatibility with the manufacturer or check for a different part number.
If your vehicle is equipped with an optional subwoofer unit on the passenger side, the cargo clip will not be present and the access panel will not be accessible unless the subwoofer unit is removed first. To remove it, use a Torx 30 driver to remove the one bolt holding the subwoofer unit in place. Once removed, you can proceed with the T-Connector installation.
You will need: trim panel remover, 10 mm socket and ratchet or 10 mm wrench, drill with 3/32" drill bit, 1/4" socket, wire crimpers, wire cutters, Phillips head screwdriver, test probe, and Torx-15 driver. A Torx 30 driver is also needed if your vehicle has an optional subwoofer unit that must be removed.
The T-Connector package includes: the black box module, T-Connector adapters with green and yellow wires, white wire with eyelet for grounding, black 12 gauge wire, yellow butt connectors, a yellow fuse holder with 15 amp fuse, double-sided tape for mounting the black box, and cable ties for securing the harness.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the fuse holder to the positive (+) battery cable in step 6. After all electrical connections are made, you reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 15 amp fuse into the fuse holder.
The battery is located inside the vehicle's trunk. You will access it from inside the vehicle to connect the black 12 gauge wire and the black wire from the T-Connector black box.
The installation sequence is: (1) open trunk and remove threshold panel, partially remove corner felt trunk liner on both sides, and remove Torx-25 screws and cargo loops; (2) separate vehicle wiring connectors on passenger side and attach T-Connector with green wire; (3) route yellow wire connector to driver side and repeat attachment; (4) drill grounding hole and secure white wire; (5) connect black wires at battery; (6) disconnect negative battery cable, remove fuse from yellow fuse holder, attach ring terminal to positive cable, and connect fuse holder to black 12 gauge wire; (7) reconnect negative battery cable and install 15 amp fuse; (8) mount black box under trunk threshold with double-sided tape; (9) secure harness with cable ties; (10) replace carpet and panels.
Beginning on the passenger side, separate the vehicle's wiring connectors carefully without breaking the locking tabs. You will see connection points that match the ends of the T-Connector adapter. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt. Attach each end to the T-Connector containing the green wire, making sure connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Then route the connector with the yellow wire down the threshold to the driver side and repeat the process for the T-Connector end with the yellow wire.
Yes, drilling is required. You must drill a 3/32" hole on the driver's side near the connectors to create a grounding point. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
You must drill a 3/32" hole for the grounding point on the driver's side near the connectors. This hole is used to secure the white wire with the eyelet using the screw provided.
The T-Connector uses a 15 amp fuse. This fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided with the product and must be installed in step 7 after all other electrical connections are complete.
The battery connection uses black 12 gauge (12 ga.) wire. This wire connects from inside the vehicle's trunk to the battery and is joined with the black wire from the T-Connector black box using a supplied yellow butt connector.
The T-Connector uses color-coded wires for different functions: the green wire is used for one T-Connector adapter end, the yellow wire is used for the other T-Connector adapter end (routed to the driver side), the white wire is for grounding, and the black wires are for battery connections. The yellow butt connectors are used to join black wires at the battery.
From inside the vehicle's trunk, connect the black 12 gauge wire and the black wire from the T-Connector black box together using the supplied yellow butt connector. This connection is made before connecting the fuse holder to the positive battery cable.
After disconnecting the vehicle's negative battery cable, remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder (if not already removed). 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 gauge wire using the supplied yellow butt connector. The 15 amp fuse is installed after the negative battery cable is reconnected.
Route the T-Connector harness carefully through the vehicle, pushing wiring between the vehicle body and carpet where applicable. Secure the remainder of the harness with the provided cable ties to prevent damage or rattling. Be careful to avoid any areas that would pinch, cut, or melt the wire. Do not route wires through sharp edges or hot surfaces.
Mount the T-Connector black box near the center of the vehicle, below the trunk threshold. Clean a flat area using a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water, then mount the black box using the double-sided tape provided.
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 prior to drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle and personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Be careful not to break locking tabs when separating wiring connectors. Avoid pinching, cutting, or melting wires when routing and securing the harness.
Overloading circuits can cause fires. Do not exceed the stated product ratings. You must also read your vehicle's owner's manual and follow the lower of either the towing manufacturer's rating (including in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the T-Connector product.
All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. Test and verify the installation with a test light or trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition.
After installation, verify that: (1) all electrical connections are complete and secure; (2) the 15 amp fuse is installed in the fuse holder; (3) the negative battery cable is reconnected; (4) the black box is mounted securely with double-sided tape; (5) all wiring is secured with cable ties and routed away from pinch points; (6) carpet and panels are replaced without cutting or pinching wires; (7) the installation functions properly using a test light or trailer; and (8) the 4-flat connector is stored in the trunk when not in use.
Store the 4-flat connector in the trunk area when not in use.
Yes, the T-Connector is designed specifically for the Dodge Charger. If your vehicle has an optional subwoofer on the passenger side, it must be removed first to access the installation area.
The T-Connector uses a 15 amp fuse, installed in the yellow fuse holder provided. This fuse is installed after all other electrical connections are complete and the negative battery cable is reconnected.
Overloading circuits can cause fires. Do not exceed the stated product ratings or the towing manufacturer's rating in your vehicle owner's manual. Wear safety glasses during installation and verify what is behind any surface before drilling.
