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.

Equip your vehicle for towing and hitch-mounted accessories with a dependable CURT 2" trailer hitch. Designed for a vehicle-specific fit, CURT receiver hitches provide a strong and secure connection point for towing trailers, carrying bikes, transporting cargo and using other compatible 2-inch hitch accessories.
Our selection of CURT 2-inch receiver hitches includes options for trucks, SUVs, crossovers, vans and passenger vehicles. Each hitch is engineered to match specific vehicle mounting points, helping provide a clean installation and dependable performance. Depending on the vehicle application, available options may include Class 3, Class 4 and heavy-duty receiver hitches with different gross trailer weight and tongue weight capacities.
A 2" x 2" receiver opening is one of the most common hitch sizes and works with a wide range of towing accessories, including ball mounts, bike racks, cargo carriers, hitch steps and tow hooks. When towing a trailer, you may also need a properly rated trailer ball, hitch pin, wiring harness, brake controller or weight distribution system.
CURT trailer hitches feature a durable black finish designed to help protect against rust, scratches and exposure to road conditions. Many models install using existing holes in the vehicle frame, although drilling, trimming or temporary removal of vehicle components may be required for certain applications.
Use our vehicle fitment tools to find the correct CURT 2" trailer hitch for your year, make and model. Always compare the hitch rating with your vehicle’s towing capacity and the ratings of every component in your towing setup. The maximum towing capacity is determined by the lowest-rated component.
Shop CURT 2-inch trailer hitches at TowUniverse for vehicle-specific fitment, trusted towing performance and access to the accessories needed to complete your towing setup.

The Draw-tite Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2" Square Receiver, Black 75038 (Part #DT75038) fits 1968-1979 Dodge D100 models. The 2004 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
Yes, the Draw-tite Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2" Square Receiver, Black 75038 (Part #DT75038) is designed to fit the 1968-1979 Dodge D100.
The Draw-tite Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2" Square Receiver, Black 75038 (Part #DT75038) Drilling is required for installation. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, hitch model 75038 is designed for Dodge Dakota pickups. The forward and rearward receiver attachment holes should align with existing holes in the vehicle frame. If existing holes are not present, you will need to drill 1/2" holes using the receiver as a template. Note that spare tire positioning may require adjustment after installation.
Yes, hitch 75038 is compatible with Ford F-Series pickups equipped with a 37.5 frame. However, bumper brackets may require readjustment to provide clearance for the hitch side brackets. On some Ford pickup models equipped with a 16" spare tire, you may need to adjust the spare tire cradle to retain under-vehicle tire stowage after hitch installation.
Yes, hitch 75038 fits both Dodge Ramcharger and Plymouth Trailduster. However, these applications require special installation: the rear frame rivet must be drilled out and the receiver attachment made at that position. If the receiver is later removed, you must reinstall the 1/2-20 X 1-3/4 GR5 hex bolts (tightened to 95 lb.-ft.) to retain the frame and crossmember connection.
Yes, hitch 75038 is compatible with Ford Bronco full size models.
The maximum gross trailer weight is 8000 lb. for a ball mount hitch and 5000 lb. for a weight distributing hitch. Maximum tongue weight is 800 lb. for ball mount and 500 lb. for weight distributing. However, you must not exceed the lower of these hitch ratings or your towing vehicle manufacturer's ratings.
The hitch weighs approximately 36.6 lb.
You will need a torque wrench to tighten all fasteners. The manual specifies wrenches are required but does not list specific wrench sizes. A 1/2" drill bit is required to drill holes in the frame. All fasteners must be tightened with a torque wrench to the specified values.
The hitch uses 1/2-13 x 1-3/4 GR5 carriage bolts with lock washers and 1/2-20 x 1-3/4 GR5 hex bolts with flanged locknuts. Installation also requires 1/4 x 1-1/2 x 2 blocks (part numbers 1277 and 3149) placed inside the vehicle frame. The manual references fastener kit number 1130-494 but does not list all included items.
The manual states 'where applicable, remove spare tire and carrier from vehicle' as the first step. This indicates that some vehicles require removal while others may not. For Dodge Dakota applications, the spare tire may be repositioned rather than fully removed. For Ford F-Series pickups with 16" spare tires, the spare tire cradle may need adjustment to retain under-vehicle stowage after installation.
Undercoating must be removed from the attaching surfaces to ensure proper contact between the receiver and the vehicle frame, which is necessary for a secure installation and proper torque transfer.
Position the receiver on the vehicle making sure it is centered on the vehicle. The formed depression in the side bracket must be positioned over the rivet, if present. The receiver will then be used as a template to mark the drilling locations.
You must drill 1/2" holes in the bottom of the frame using the receiver as a template. For Dodge Dakota applications, the forward and rearward receiver attachment holes should align with existing holes in the vehicle frame; if existing holes are not present, use a 1/2" drill to create them.
No. The manual explicitly states 'Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch.' You must use a 1/2" drill bit to create the holes.
The rear frame rivet must be drilled out. The receiver attachment is then made at this position. If the receiver is later removed, you must reinstall the 1/2-20 x 1-3/4 GR5 hex bolts (tightened to 95 lb.-ft.) to retain the frame and crossmember connection.
Tighten the nuts on 1/2-13 GR5 carriage bolts to 75 lb.-ft. using a torque wrench.
Tighten the locknuts on 1/2-20 GR5 hex bolts to 95 lb.-ft. using a torque wrench. This applies to both standard installations and to the bolts that must be reinstalled on Ramcharger and Trailduster applications if the receiver is removed.
The 1/4 x 1-1/2 x 2 blocks (part numbers 1277 and 3149) must be placed inside the vehicle frame. They are positioned under the fasteners to distribute the load and prevent the frame from being crushed.
Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. Follow your car maker's specifications for maximum trailer weight and tongue weight. Do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's ratings or the hitch ratings (8000 lb. max gross trailer weight for ball mount, 5000 lb. for weight distributing; 800 lb. max tongue weight for ball mount, 500 lb. for weight distributing).
If the spare tire and carrier are relocated and/or modified to retain under-box stowage, you must make sure the relocated tire and carrier do not contact the brake line, rear axle, or other safety-related components.
Check the hitch frequently, making sure all fasteners and ball are properly tightened. If the hitch is removed at any time, 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 continue to use a damaged hitch.
Yes. This product complies with safety specifications and requirements for connecting devices and towing systems of the State of New York and V.E.S.C. Regulation V-5.
Hitch 75038 fits Dodge D&W Series Pickup, Dodge Dakota, Dodge Ramcharger, Ford Bronco (Full Size), Ford F-Series Pickup (W/37.5 Frame), and Plymouth Trailduster. Ramcharger and Trailduster require drilling out the rear frame rivet.
Yes. You must drill 1/2" holes in the bottom of the frame using the receiver as a template. For Ramcharger and Trailduster, the rear frame rivet must also be drilled out. Do not use a torch to cut holes.
You need a torque wrench (to tighten all fasteners), a 1/2" drill bit, and wrenches. All fasteners must be tightened with a torque wrench to specified values (75 lb.-ft. for carriage bolts, 95 lb.-ft. for hex bolts).
Tighten 1/2-13 GR5 carriage bolts to 75 lb.-ft. and 1/2-20 GR5 hex bolts to 95 lb.-ft. Use a torque wrench for all fasteners.
Wear eye protection when working beneath the vehicle. Do not cut holes with a torch. Do not exceed towing vehicle manufacturer's ratings or hitch ratings. If removed, plug all holes to prevent water and exhaust fume entry. Replace any damaged hitch or ball immediately.
Yes, a compatible bike rack, cargo carrier or other accessory with a 2" x 2" shank can generally be used. Make sure the accessory does not exceed the hitch’s tongue weight rating, the vehicle’s limits or the accessory manufacturer’s capacity. Account for the combined weight of the carrier and everything loaded onto it.
