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.

Yes. Part number 76018 is designed for 2016-Current BMW X1 models. Visit the Cequent website for the most up-to-date information regarding specific application years and trim levels.
The maximum gross trailer weight is 4500 lb (2043 kg) and the maximum tongue weight is 675 lb (306 kg) for both weight carrying and weight distributing configurations. However, do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
Required tools include: ratchet, torque wrench, safety glasses, sockets (8 mm, 10 mm, 18 mm, 3/4"), 6" socket extension, flat head screwdriver, drill, 1" holesaw, tape measure, marker, exhaust removal pliers, and tin snips.
Fastener kit 76018F includes: (2) carriage bolts ½"-13 x 1.75 Gr5, (2) conical washers 1/2", (2) blocks 1/4" x 1" x 3", (2) hex nuts ½"-13 Gr5, and (2) pull wires ½".
Yes. You must drill two 1" holes (one on each side) for the forward hitch attachments using a 1" holesaw. The hitch is used as a template to mark the hole locations after it is positioned on the lower bumper studs.
Yes. The heat shield must be trimmed with two cuts. Starting from the lower portion, measure ½" inward from the outermost screw holes and draw a line across. On the upper portion, draw a line ½" from the top. Trim across both lines using tin snips.
Yes. Use a 10 mm socket to remove the nut on both rear exhaust hangers, then pry off one rubber exhaust hanger near the transaxle using exhaust removal pliers or a suitable tool. Spraying with soapy water makes this easier. The exhaust hangers are reinstalled after the hitch installation is complete.
The sensor bar is held to the vehicle by two nuts. You do not need to completely remove it; only loosen the two 10 mm nuts holding it to ease the hitch installation. Tighten the sensor bar again during the final reinstallation step.
Yes. Use an 8 mm socket to remove eight screws and four plastic expanding fasteners, then gently unclip and pull the fascia off. Set it aside for reinstallation after the hitch installation is complete.
All hitch fasteners must be tightened to 75 Lb.-Ft. (102 N·M) using a torque wrench. This includes the carriage bolts at the forward attachments and the nuts on the lower bumper studs.
The reverse fishwire method is used to install the carriage bolts and blocks into the drilled holes. Insert the bolt and block into the frame, align the block on the access hole, then pull the bolt through the block. Leave the pull wires attached until the hitch is raised into final position, then remove them before installing the conical washer and hex nut.
The conical washer must be installed with the teeth side facing toward the hitch. It is placed on the carriage bolt before the ½" hex nut is installed at the forward attachment.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. Proper torque is needed to keep the hitch secure to the vehicle when 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.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but emphasizes the importance of periodic checks to maintain secure mounting during towing.
Do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or 4500 lb (2043 kg) gross trailer weight with a maximum tongue weight of 675 lb (306 kg). These limits apply to both weight carrying and weight distributing configurations.
Load the trailer heavier in front. This helps maintain proper weight distribution and stability while 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.
Do not cut, weld, or modify the receiver. These modifications could compromise the structural integrity and safety of the hitch.
The manual states that the average installation time for professional installers is 40 minutes. If you do not feel comfortable performing this installation on your own or are in need of assistance, contact a professional installer.
