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.

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. Step 4 of the installation requires using a 15 mm socket to remove 8 flange nuts (4 per side) and remove the bumper beam. The bumper beam should be returned to the vehicle owner.
Yes. Two permanent trimming operations are required: (1) Cut a notch in the lower part of the fascia underbody panel approximately 3-1/2" wide × 2-1/2" deep, centered on the vehicle (Step 5). (2) Cut a notch in the hitch access panel approximately 3-1/2" wide × 4-1/2" deep (Step 9). Use a tape measure, marker, and utility knife. Do not use a torch to cut these holes.
All CL10 hex flange nuts must be tightened to 42 Lb.-Ft. (57 N·M) using a torque wrench.
Eight (8) CL10 hex flange nuts attach the hitch to the bumper studs—4 per side. These are existing M10 flange nuts on the end panel. The hitch holes align with these studs, and the nuts are loosely installed first (Step 6) then tightened to 42 Lb.-Ft. (57 N·M) (Step 7).
1. Remove forward underbody panel (19 screws, do not remove 3 forward-most screws). 2. Remove hitch access panel (2 push pin rivets). 3. Remove fascia (multiple fasteners and wiring). 4. Remove bumper beam (8 flange nuts). 5. Trim fascia notch (3-1/2" × 2-1/2"). 6. Install hitch by aligning holes with studs and loosely install 8 nuts. 7. Tighten all nuts to 42 Lb.-Ft. (57 N·M). 8. Reinstall fascia, wiring, and trim using original hardware. 9. Trim hitch access panel notch (3-1/2" × 4-1/2").

Fascia fasteners include: (2) T30 Torx screws from rear underbody panel, (2) 10 mm flange nuts from wheel well liner per side, (2) push pin rivets from wheel well liner per side, (1) T25 Torx screw vertically in upper fascia area behind wheel well liner per side, and (1) 10 mm screw per side holding fascia near the liftgate bump stop. All original hardware must be reused when reinstalling the fascia in Step 8.
Yes. In Step 3i, disconnect the 2 wiring harnesses from the fascia and set the fascia aside. In Step 8, be sure to reconnect all wiring harnesses when reinstalling the fascia.
The manual requires opening the rear liftgate and removing the 2 plastic liftgate bump stops (Step 3f) to access the fascia fasteners. This allows the molding near the bump stop to be lifted so that the fascia-holding screw can be removed from each side (Step 3g).
Two push pin rivets must be removed: (2) from the hitch access panel in Step 2, and (2) from the wheel well liner in Step 3c. These are removed using a flat-head screwdriver.

The hitch access panel notch must be approximately 3-1/2" wide × 4-1/2" deep. Use a tape measure, marker, and utility knife. See Figure 3 for the centered location. Alternatively, you may return the hitch access panel and 2 push pin rivets to the vehicle owner instead of trimming.
Yes. Step 9 offers an alternative: you may return the hitch access panel and 2 push pin rivets to the vehicle owner instead of cutting the notch.
Loosely install the 8 hex flange nuts first in Step 6 after aligning the hitch holes with the bumper studs. Then tighten all CL10 hex flange nuts to 42 Lb.-Ft. (57 N·M) in Step 7 using a torque wrench.

Always wear safety glasses when installing the hitch. Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch.
