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.

The Draw-tite Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2" Square Receiver, Black for Select Mazda CX-5 76138 (Part #DT76138) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The 76138 hitch is designed for 2013-Current Mazda CX-5 models. Visit the Cequent website for the most up-to-date information regarding specific application years and trim levels, as compatibility may vary.
The 76138 is a weight-carrying hitch with a maximum gross trailer weight of 4500 lb (2043 kg) and a maximum tongue weight of 675 lb (306 kg). Do not exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
No. The 76138 is a weight-carrying hitch and must not be used with weight-distributing spring bars.
Required tools are: ratchet, torque wrench, safety glasses, and 3/4" sockets. Optional tools include a 6" socket extension, universal joint socket, small flat-head screwdriver, exhaust removal pliers, pry bar, ratchet tie-down, and lubricant or soapy water.
Yes. The exhaust must be lowered by removing four rubber hangers and supported to prevent it from falling under its own weight. Spraying lubricant or soapy water on the metal hanger rod and rubber isolator helps with removal and reinstallation.
Plastic rivets may be present fastening the fascia tabs to the vehicle. If present, remove them by extracting the center of the rivet with a flat screwdriver. Keep the rivets for reinstallation after the hitch is installed.
The fastener kit (76138F) includes: four 1/2-13 x 1.25 GR5 carriage bolts, four 0.250 x 1 x 3 spacers, four 1/2" conical washers, four 1/2-13 GR5 hex nuts, and four 1/2-13 fish wires (pull wires).
Feed the coiled end of the pull wire through the forward attachment hole in the frame and out the access hole. Attach the spacer onto the pull wire and thread the carriage bolt onto the pull wire. Pull the pull wire with fasteners into location through the hole, leaving the pull wire attached. Repeat on both frame rails. The reverse pull wire procedure threads the carriage bolt into the access hole first, then feeds the spacer into the access hole, and pulls the carriage bolt into position through the spacer.
Raise the hitch above the exhaust and feed the pull wires through the attachment points on the hitch brackets. Gently pull the fascia rearward as needed to gain access between the fascia and exhaust hanger. Feed the conical washer over the pull wire, using the washer to hold the bolt in place, then remove the pull wires and attach the hex nut. Hand tighten both sides initially.
All 1/2 GR5 fasteners must be tightened to 75 lb-ft (102 N·M). A universal joint socket may be needed to tighten the rearward fasteners on both sides. Proper torque is essential to keep the hitch secure to the vehicle when towing.
Raise the exhaust back into position and remove the ratchet strap. Spraying lubricant or soapy water on the metal hanger rod and rubber isolator helps with reinstalling. Reinstall the plastic rivets if they were removed in step 2.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify a retorque interval, but periodic inspection is required to maintain secure mounting during towing.
Always wear your seatbelt. Slow down when towing and never exceed any posted speed limit. Load the trailer heavier in front. 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 exceed the lower of your towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or the hitch's maximum capacity of 4500 lb GVWR and 675 lb tongue weight.
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 that has been damaged should be removed and replaced.
No cutting, welding, or modification of the receiver is permitted. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. The hitch uses a pull wire installation method that works with existing frame holes.
Always wear safety glasses when installing the hitch. Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle.
