These dependable custom hitches are manufactured for 2015-2023 Ford Mustang 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 1 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.

Yes, part number 24928 fits 2015-current Ford Mustang models. Visit the Cequent website for the most up-to-date information regarding specific application years and trim levels.
You will need: a ratchet, torque wrench, safety glasses, and sockets in 13mm, 15mm, and 11/16 inch sizes. A 6-inch socket extension is also shown in the hitch illustration.
Yes. You must unhook the four hanger brackets to lower the exhaust and support it with a ratchet strap to create enough room for the hitch to slide in.
All 7/16 inch hitch fasteners must be tightened to 50 lb-ft (68 N·M) using a torque wrench.
The maximum gross trailer weight is 2000 lb (907 kg) and the maximum tongue weight is 200 lb (91 kg). Do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
No drilling is required. The hitch uses existing frame rail access holes and mounting holes. Fasteners are routed through these holes using the fishwire technique.
The 24928 hitch receiver is supplied with fastener kit 24928F. The fastener kit includes: 2 carriage bolts 7/16 inch-14 x 1.50 GR5, 6 spacers 1/4 inch x 1 inch x 3 inch, 6 conical washers 7/16 inch, 6 hex nuts 7/16 inch-14 GR2, 6 fishwires 7/16 inch-14, and 4 carriage bolts 7/16 inch-14 x 1.25 GR5. The drawbar kit (3594) is sold separately.
Yes, the 24928 fits convertible Mustangs, but installation requires additional steps. You must remove the support member by removing 14 bolts (10mm) to access the forward hanger brackets. This adds approximately 60 minutes to the installation time, for a total of about 90 minutes.
Fishwire is a technique to route fasteners through tight spaces. You thread the 7/16 inch carriage bolts and spacers through the frame rail access hole and out through two bottom and one side mounting holes in the frame rail. The fishwires are left attached initially to guide the fasteners, then removed before installing the conical washers and nuts.
Remove the 8mm bolts in this order: first, remove 2 bolts from the rearward hanger bracket on both sides of the vehicle (4 bolts total), then remove 2 bolts from the forward hanger brackets. After removing these bolts, unhook all 4 hanger brackets to lower the exhaust.
Tighten all M8 CL10.9 fasteners to 20 lb-ft (27 N·M) and all M10 fasteners to 38 lb-ft (52 N·M) using a torque wrench. These fasteners secure the hanger brackets after the hitch installation is complete.
Lower the exhaust by adjusting the ratchet strap until there is enough room for the hitch to slide in. Ensure that the side brackets are positioned over the fishwires before proceeding to remove the fishwires and install the fasteners.
First, tighten all 7/16 inch hitch fasteners to 50 lb-ft (68 N·M). Then, re-hook the hanger brackets and reinstall the M8 bolts. Finally, tighten all M8 CL10.9 fasteners to 20 lb-ft (27 N·M) and all M10 fasteners to 38 lb-ft (52 N·M) using a torque wrench.
If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual emphasizes that proper torque is needed to keep the hitch secure to the vehicle when towing.
A hitch or ball which has been damaged should be removed and replaced immediately.
Always wear safety glasses when installing the hitch. Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection.
You need a ratchet strap to support the exhaust after unhooking the hanger brackets. The ratchet strap holds the exhaust in place while you route the hitch fasteners and lower the exhaust to create clearance for the hitch.
Conical washers (6 included in kit 24928F) are installed on both sides of the hitch after the fishwires are removed. They are used with the 7/16 inch hex nuts to secure the carriage bolts to the frame rail.
Six 7/16 inch carriage bolts are used to mount the hitch: 2 bolts of 7/16 inch-14 x 1.50 GR5 and 4 bolts of 7/16 inch-14 x 1.25 GR5. Each bolt is paired with a spacer, conical washer, and hex nut.
Spacers (6 included, each 1/4 inch x 1 inch x 3 inch) are installed with the 7/16 inch carriage bolts. They are routed through the frame rail access hole along with the bolts to properly position the fasteners in the mounting holes.
The average installation time is 30 minutes for professional installers on standard Mustang models. For convertible models, an additional 60 minutes is required, for a total of approximately 90 minutes. If you do not feel comfortable performing the installation or need assistance, contact a professional installer.
Load the trailer heavier in front. Always wear your seatbelt. Slow down when towing and never exceed any posted speed limit. If excess sway occurs, take your foot off the gas pedal and hold the steering wheel as steady as possible. Do not apply your brakes and do not speed up.
The 24928 hitch comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty covering material defects in materials and workmanship, excluding ordinary wear and tear. The warranty is valid only if products are returned for inspection, the defect is not caused by misuse, neglect, improper installation, or accident, and the product was installed and maintained according to instructions. Product replacement is the sole remedy. Contact Cequent at 1-800-632-3290 or 47912 Halyard Drive, Suite 100, Plymouth, MI 48170 to initiate a warranty claim.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected before installation.
No permanent modifications are required. The hitch uses existing frame rail access holes and mounting holes. The manual explicitly states: 'DO NOT cut, weld or modify this receiver.' Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch.
The manual does not address interference with spare tires, bumpers, steps, or other vehicle components.
No. The drawbar kit (part number 3594) is sold separately. The drawbar must be used in the RISE position only.
After lowering the exhaust, the side brackets of the hitch must be positioned directly over the fishwires that are routing the carriage bolts through the frame rail. This ensures proper alignment before the fishwires are removed and the fasteners are permanently secured.
The T-Connector is a wiring adapter that allows you to connect a trailer to your vehicle's electrical system. It taps into the vehicle's existing taillight wiring at the rear cargo area and routes power to a 4-flat connector for trailer use. The system includes a black box (control module), T-Connector adapters for each taillight, a fuse holder with 10 amp fuse, and wiring harness with cable ties.
Yes, this T-Connector is designed for the Ford Mustang. However, the manual does not specify which model years or generations are compatible. Contact the manufacturer or your installer to confirm fitment for your specific Mustang year and body style.
You will need: a Trim Panel Remover, a 10mm Socket & Ratchet or 10mm Wrench, a Drill with a 3/32" Drill Bit, and a Test-probe. These tools are required to remove the threshold cover, disconnect fasteners, drill the ground point (if needed), and test the installation.
The kit includes: two T-Connector adapters (one with yellow wire for driver's side, one with green wire for passenger's side), a black control box, a yellow fuse holder with 10 amp fuse, yellow butt connectors, a white eyelet and screw for grounding, 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. The battery remains disconnected until step 9, when you reconnect the Negative cable after the fuse is installed in the fuse holder.
The vehicle wiring connectors are located inside the rear cargo area, behind the taillights. Access them by partially removing the plastic threshold cover and felt trunk liner. Behind each taillight housing, you will find connection points that match the ends of the T-Connector adapters.
Remove the top fasteners holding the threshold cover by rotating them 90° and gently pulling out on each fastener until it releases. This allows you to partially remove the plastic threshold cover and felt trunk liner to access the vehicle wiring connectors behind the taillights.
Install the T-Connector adapters in this order: (1) On the driver's side, insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock into place. (2) Route the T-Connector containing the green wire below the threshold cover to the passenger's side taillight housing. (3) Repeat the insertion and locking process on the passenger's side using the green-wire T-Connector. Ensure all locking tabs are fully engaged and connectors are fully inserted.
From inside the trunk, connect the black 12 gauge wire and the red wire from the T-Connector black box together using the supplied yellow butt connector. This connection is made before routing the wires to the battery.
You have two routing options: (1) Route the black wire through a grommet and along the exterior frame, or (2) Follow the existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery. Either way, avoid areas that may pinch or break the wire, hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any other points that could damage the wire.
Drilling may be required only for the ground point. If a suitable existing ground stud is not available near the taillight connector, you must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire. You must 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. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces.
Use a 3/32" drill bit to create the ground hole, if an existing ground stud is not available. The white ground wire is then secured using the supplied eyelet and screw.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the taillight connector, such as an existing ground stud. If one is not available, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area before securing. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse. The fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided in the kit. Install the fuse in step 9, after reconnecting the vehicle's Negative battery cable.
After disconnecting the Negative battery cable, remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder if it is installed. Cut the fuse holder wire, attach the ring terminal to the cut end, and secure it 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. Reconnect the Negative battery cable and install the 10 amp fuse into the fuse holder.
The T-Connector uses the following wire colors: Yellow wire (driver's side taillight connection), Green wire (passenger's side taillight connection), Black wire (12 gauge, power from battery through fuse), Red wire (from black box, connected to black wire via yellow butt connector), and White wire (ground connection to vehicle frame or drilled ground point).
Mount the T-Connector black box on the driver's side floor of the rear cargo area using the double-sided tape provided. Before mounting, clean a flat area using a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water to ensure proper adhesion. The black box should be secured before replacing the trunk threshold and felt trunk liner.
Secure the remainder of the T-Connector harness using the cable ties provided. Route the harness carefully to prevent damage or rattling, and avoid any areas that would cut or pinch the wire. This prevents the harness from moving or being damaged during vehicle operation.
Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or these limits: Maximum stop/turn light: 1 per side (2.1 amps); Maximum tail lights: 5.6 amps. Overloading the circuit can cause fires. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual and instruction sheet for additional information about your specific towing capacity.
After installation is complete, test and verify the installation using a test light or by connecting a trailer. For the initial test, reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. If the lights do not work, check that all connectors are fully seated and locked, and that the 10 amp fuse is installed.
Store the 4-flat connector in the rear cargo area of the vehicle when not in use.
Yes. Before connecting the T-Connector adapters, check that the mating surfaces of the vehicle wiring connectors match the T-Connector ends. All connector surfaces should be clean and free of dirt to ensure proper electrical contact.
Be careful not to damage the locking tabs when inserting the T-Connector adapters. Ensure that connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. If you encounter resistance, do not force the connector; verify that the mating surfaces are clean and that you are inserting the correct T-Connector end (yellow wire for driver's side, green wire for passenger's side) into the correct taillight connector.
Yes, the T-Connector (118487-037) is designed for the Ford Mustang. Confirm your specific model year with the manufacturer or installer.
Yes, disconnect the Negative battery cable before connecting the fuse holder to the Positive cable. Reconnect it after the 10 amp fuse is installed.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse installed in the yellow fuse holder.
Maximum 2.1 amps per stop/turn light (1 per side) and 5.6 amps for tail lights. Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or these limits.
Test using a test light or trailer after installation. Reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key. All connections must be complete for proper function.
Verify that all connections are complete and secure. Check that: (1) Both T-Connector adapters are fully inserted and locked into the vehicle taillight connectors with locking tabs engaged; (2) The connector mating surfaces are clean and free of dirt; (3) The black and red wires from the black box are connected together with the yellow butt connector; (4) The fuse holder is properly connected to the Positive battery cable with the ring terminal; (5) The 10 amp fuse is installed in the fuse holder; (6) The Negative battery cable is reconnected. Reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key and test again.
Ensure that the connector mating surfaces are clean and free of dirt. Verify that you are inserting the correct T-Connector end: the yellow-wire connector goes on the driver's side, and the green-wire connector goes on the passenger's side. Do not force the connector; insert it gently and ensure the locking tabs engage fully. If the connector still does not fit, the vehicle connector may be damaged or the T-Connector may not be compatible with your vehicle.
