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. The fascia must be removed to access the frame rails and install the hitch. It is removed in Step 5 using plastic trim tools, starting at the outer edges near the wheel wells, and carefully set aside for reinstallation. The fascia is trimmed and reinstalled in the final steps.
No drilling is required. However, a die grinder is used to enlarge an existing access hole so the hardware will fit. The fascia must be trimmed with a die grinder to cut a 4.75" x 4.25" notch in the bottom. Before trimming, ensure the area is clear of all electrical wiring.
The notch must be 4.75" wide by 4.25" tall, cut in the bottom center of the fascia. Use a tape measure, marker, and die grinder to cut it. Before trimming, verify the area is clear of all electrical wiring.
All 1/2-13 Gr5 fasteners must be tightened to 75 Lb.-Ft. (102 N·M) using a torque wrench. Proper torque is essential to keep the hitch securely mounted to the vehicle when towing.
Using pull wires, feed the carriage bolt and spacer into the frame rails and bracket holes from the access hole. Raise the hitch into position and align the holes with the holes in the frame rail. Remove the pull wires and loosely install conical washers and hex nuts to the hitch. The conical washer teeth side must face against the hitch. Kink the pull wire to keep the spacer independent of the bolt.
No. During Step 6, the conical washers and hex nuts are installed loosely to the hitch. They are only fully tightened in Step 7 using a torque wrench to 75 Lb.-Ft. (102 N·M).

The average installation time is 90 minutes for professional installers. If you do not feel comfortable performing this installation on your own or need assistance, contact a professional installer.
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.
No. Do not cut, weld, or modify this receiver. Doing so may compromise the structural integrity and safety of the hitch.

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. Do not continue to use a damaged hitch.
Yes. Before removing the fascia, you must first remove screws from the fascia using a T15 Torx bit (2 screws with clips from the bottom). If an underbody panel is present, remove (3) plastic nuts from the forward edge using an M10 socket and (4) screws from the rearward edge using a T25 Torx bit. This is Step 1.
Yes. Use a flat head screwdriver to remove the plastic cover below the driver side taillight, then use a T30 Torx bit to remove (1) screw from under the cover. Repeat this process for the passenger side. This is Step 4.
