These dependable custom hitches are manufactured for 2018-2023 Chevrolet Equinox, 2018-2023 GMC Terrain 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.

Yes. The 36642 is designed for 2018-Current GMC Terrain models. Check the Cequent website for the most up-to-date information regarding specific application years and trim levels.
The 36642 is a weight-carrying hitch only. The manual does not provide information about weight-distributing hitches or their differences. For details on hitch types, contact Cequent Technical Assistance at 800-632-3290.
The fastener kit (36642F) includes: 6 carriage bolts (7/16-14 x 1.5 GR5), 6 blocks (1/4 x 7/8 x 3, part HE-2370-000), 6 conical tooth washers (7/16, part 01292007), 6 hex nuts (7/16-14), and 6 pull wires (7/16, part 5481). Three fastener sets are installed per side (6 total per side).
The manual lists fastener kit 36642F as part of the installation but does not explicitly state whether it is included or sold separately. Contact Cequent at 800-632-3290 or TechnicalSupport@cequentgroup.com to confirm.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Contact Cequent Technical Assistance at 800-632-3290 for guidance on battery disconnection.
The pull wire (fish wire) is used to feed the hardware through the frame attachment holes and out through the access hole. The coiled end of the pull wire is inserted through an attachment hole in the frame, then the carriage bolt and block are attached to it, and the hardware is pulled into place. The pull wire should be left attached until the hitch is raised into position to prevent the hardware from being pushed back into the frame.
Leaving the pull wire attached until the hitch is raised into place helps prevent the hardware from being pushed back into the frame during installation. Once the hitch is in position, the pull wire can be removed.
Three fastener sets are installed per side, for a total of six fastener sets (one per attachment hole). Each set consists of a carriage bolt, block, conical tooth washer, hex nut, and pull wire.
No. When raising the hitch into place in Step 3, items 3 and 4 (the fasteners) should be loosely installed. They are fully torqued to 50 ft-lb (68 N·m) only in Step 5, after the muffler has been raised back into place.
1. Lower the muffler by removing fascia screws, exhaust hanger bolts, and rubber isolators. 2. Feed the pull wire through frame attachment holes and attach the carriage bolts and blocks. 3. Raise the hitch into place and loosely install fasteners. 4. Raise the muffler back into place. 5. Torque all 7/16-14 Grade 5 fasteners to 50 ft-lb (68 N·m).
If extra clearance is needed, pull the wire harness off the passenger side frame. Reinstall the wire harness after the hitch is in place.
Spray lubricant on the rubber hangers to make them slide off the metal pins more easily. Be careful to support the exhaust before removing the rubber hangers.
A 15 mm socket is required to remove the bolts from the rear exhaust hanger brackets. There are 2 bolts per bracket.
A T15 Torx bit socket is required to remove the 2 screws from the bottom of the rear fascia.
The manual does not mention drilling new holes. The hitch uses existing frame attachment holes. However, the manual does not explicitly confirm whether holes are pre-existing or require drilling. Contact Cequent at 800-632-3290 for clarification.
No. The manual explicitly states: "Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch." Use appropriate cutting tools instead.
No. The manual explicitly warns: "DO NOT cut, weld or modify this receiver." Any modifications will void the warranty and compromise the hitch's structural integrity and safety.
The maximum tongue weight is 350 lb (159 kg). Do not exceed this limit or the lower of your vehicle manufacturer's towing rating.
Load the trailer heavier in front. This helps maintain proper weight distribution and stability during towing.
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. Reduce speed and maintain control.
Always wear safety glasses when installing the hitch. Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection. Support the exhaust before removing rubber hangers. Do not use a torch to cut holes.
Check that all fasteners are tight and the hitch is securely mounted to the vehicle. Verify that the ball is properly tightened. Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners remain tight during use.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but periodic checks are essential for safe towing.
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 attempt to repair a damaged hitch.

Kinking the pull wire means bending it to keep the spacer (block) independent of the bolt. This prevents the spacer from sliding along the bolt during installation and helps maintain proper alignment of the hardware.
The teeth side of the conical tooth washer should be against the hitch. This provides proper grip and prevents loosening during towing.
Yes. Figure 2 shows that one hole is marked as 'Hole Not Used.' Do not install fasteners in this hole.
The carriage bolts are 7/16-14 x 1.5 Grade 5 (GR5). Six bolts are used (one per fastener set). They must be torqued to 50 ft-lb (68 N·m).
The spacer blocks are 1/4 x 7/8 x 3 inches, part number HE-2370-000. Six blocks are used (one per fastener set).
The conical tooth washers are 7/16 inch, part number 01292007. Six washers are used (one per fastener set). The teeth side must face against the hitch.
The hex nuts are 7/16-14 size. Six nuts are used (one per fastener set). They must be torqued to 50 ft-lb (68 N·m) along with the carriage bolts.
The pull wire is 7/16 inch diameter, part number 5481. Six pull wires are used (one per fastener set). The coiled end is fed through the frame attachment hole to pull the hardware into place.
The manual does not mention any electrical wiring or connections for the 36642 hitch. It is a mechanical weight-carrying hitch with no electrical components.
Stop towing immediately and re-torque all 7/16-14 Grade 5 fasteners to 50 ft-lb (68 N·m) using a torque wrench. Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners remain tight. Loose fasteners can cause the hitch to shift or fail during towing.
The pull wire may have been removed too early. The pull wire should remain attached until the hitch is fully raised into place. Leaving the pull wire attached prevents the hardware from being pushed back into the frame. If hardware is already stuck in the frame, contact a professional installer or Cequent Technical Assistance at 800-632-3290.
Ensure the coiled end of the pull wire is properly formed and not kinked. If extra clearance is needed, pull the wire harness off the passenger side frame. If the pull wire still cannot be fed through, contact Cequent Technical Assistance at 800-632-3290 for guidance.
Spray lubricant on the rubber hangers to make them slide off the metal pins more easily. Allow the lubricant to soak for a few minutes before attempting to remove the hangers again. Be careful to support the exhaust before removing the hangers.
Yes, this T-Connector is designed for the Chevrolet Equinox. The installation involves removing the taillights on both driver and passenger sides and connecting the T-Connector harness to the vehicle's existing taillight wiring.
