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.

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, the T-One® Connector is designed for Chevrolet Equinox. The installation manual is specific to this vehicle model.
The T-One® Connector is a trailer wiring harness that integrates with your vehicle's taillight system. It connects between the vehicle's factory taillight wiring and a 4-flat trailer connector, allowing you to power trailer lights from your vehicle's electrical system.
You will need: Trim Panel Remover, 10mm Socket & Ratchet or 10mm Wrench, Drill with 3/32" Drill Bit, 1/4" Socket, Wire Crimpers, Wire Cutters, Philips Head Screwdriver, Test-probe, and Torx 10 Driver.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the power wire to the positive battery terminal. This is done in Step 10, after routing the black 12 ga. power wire to the battery.
Yes. You must remove both the driver and passenger side taillights to access the taillight wiring harness. Open the rear tailgate, remove two Torx-10 screws on each side, and carefully pull the taillights away from the vehicle without damaging the alignment pins.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole to mount the ground wire. This hole is drilled into a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as the vehicle's frame or crossmember. 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.
The T-One® Connector uses a 15 amp fuse. The fuse is installed into the yellow fuse holder provided with the kit in Step 11, after the battery is reconnected.
The T-One® Connector uses yellow wires on the driver's side taillight connection, green wires on the passenger's side taillight connection, white wire for the ground connection, and black 12 ga. wire for the positive power connection to the battery. The 4-flat trailer connector is routed separately underneath the vehicle.
Mount the T-One® black box underneath the vehicle behind the rear bumper fascia on the driver's side using the double-sided tape provided. The module must be in a protected area where it cannot be damaged by road debris or objects driven over. The epoxy side of the module must point toward the ground to prevent water buildup.
Route the yellow-wire end up between the bumper and vehicle body to the driver's side taillight pocket. Route the green-wire end and 4-flat connector underneath the bumper to the passenger's side. Route the black power wire along the exterior frame or follow existing wiring along thresholds into the engine compartment. Avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and any pinch points. Secure the harness with cable ties provided, being careful to avoid areas that would pinch, cut, or melt the wire.
After disconnecting the negative battery cable, attach the black 12 ga. power wire from the T-Connector box to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable using the ring terminal and yellow butt connector provided. The connection is made through a yellow fuse holder with a 15 amp fuse. Reconnect the negative battery cable after the connection is complete.
Mount the 4-flat connector end in an accessible location with a bracket or electrical box (not included). The 4-flat harness should be routed underneath and to the center of the vehicle.
Test and verify the installation with a test light or trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. All connections must be complete for the T-One® Connector to function properly.
Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating (including in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the product. The T-One® Connector uses a 15 amp fuse. Overloading circuits can cause fires.
Yes. All connector surfaces should be clean and free of dirt before connecting the T-Connector ends to the vehicle's taillight wiring harness.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as the vehicle's frame or crossmember. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area. Drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed.
Always wear safety glasses and use all safety precautions during installation. Before drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into exposed surfaces. When routing wires, avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and pinch points. Read and follow all warnings and cautions printed on the tow vehicle's battery.
