Draw-Tite 75238 Class IV Trailer Hitch, 2 Inch Receiver Compatible with Toyota Tacoma 2016-2023 Model Years

Draw-Tite's long standing excellent reputation for fit, strength and quality was well represented in this application. Installation without any drilling was a treat and went smoothly. The process of installation on my 2019 Colorado followed helpful comments by others that the bumper needs to completely come off for ease of the bolt up and wiring tasks. I would add that the bumper was not easy to free initially after all bumper attachment bolts were out. To free the bumper, I found a solution by backing out all four bolts holding the original GM cross-tube to the frame rails until the cross tube had dropped down from the frame rails and had about a 3/4 inch gap. The bumper could then be tilted/extracted such that it's end plates that side mount the bumper to the frame rails would come free off the ends of the cross tube bracketing. (The bumper sat nicely on the cross tube's original ball mount support without any bumper attachment bolts in place, so no concern for the bumper possibly falling free during all of that cross tube loosening.) Draw-Tite eliminated that cross tube bracket-end interference and provides washers to tape to the frame that fill in as shims the free space thickness where the new cross tube omitted the OEM's interfering cross tube bracket ends. You can fully bolt up and torque the Draw-tite hitch to the frame rails and afterwards slip the bumper easily in place. I used a long breaker bar with a chain link fence top rail tube section as a cheater pipe extension on it to break loose the two of the (four in total) bumper side-mounting bolts that my 90 degree air hammer could not get in to reach. It was a lengthy effort to back out those OEM-threadlocked bolts, but no heat was required, just patience and endurance. After many years of installing frame mounted hitches from several manufacturers and front-mount tow plate bracketing for vehicles towed behind motorhomes, it was a pleasure to still be able to purchase another Draw-Tite product that continues the high standard you expect from a trusted brand.

Ok so I have a 2015 chevy colorado wt 4x4 that came with a bumper hitch. I needed to change ball size often for different trailers and so i decided to go with the receiver hitch to make that easier. The hitch fit good and was good quality. Tips - There are 8 big bolts and 2 small bolts holding the bumper and old hitch on. these will be rusted badly and you will need a long ratchet and a 21 millimeter socket for the 8 large bolts and the little ones are like a 12 or 13 mm. you should spray these through a hole in the frame area inside the rail to help with removal. These are in an area that is hard to access with a impact and they are extremely tight. they use some thread locker on them so hit them with a torch to free that up or it will be a tough battle. the 4 large bolts on the bottom were easy to remove with the large impact. the 2 center bolts have clips that will need to be put on the new piece. the old hitch ball has to come out before the bumper will come off. be sure to remove the wires that are attached to the bumper before removal. i used zip ties to reattach the wiring. i used a 3 foot 1" drive breaker bar to loosen these big bolts so get ready for some physical work if you tackle this yourself. Good luck

Product is very well made with all the parts needed to make it work. The install is not extremely difficult on the Jeep Grand Cherokee L but it does require removing the entire fascia of the car. Make sure to have somewhere safe to put it so the paint doesnt get scuffed and blue painters tape for the seams. Doing the integrated trailer light wiring is strongly suggested while doing the hitch install.

I installed this on a 2020 XC60 T6 Inscription with little issue. There are instructions included with good pictures for the install, and good videos are found on YouTube as well. The only issue that I ran into was the mounting brackets for the bottom of the bumper need to be bent back out of the way and then back forwards in order to re-align. This CAN (was) done by hand but took some effort. You also need to trim about an inch out of the bumper, this is easily done with a utility knight (be careful) and you can follow the 'guide' printed in the inside of the bumper itself. Plan for an hour, but honestly, if I had to do this again, it would take 20min...

This hitch bolts in easily to the vehicle it is designed for. The installation was fairly quick and simple with the included instructions. I would recommend watching a video if you are unsure of your mechanical aptitude. The item arrived days earlier than expected and included all the necessary hardware to install it. You will need a drill, a hole saw, and basic mechanical tools to install this hitch. It can be a bit tricky to bolt in to place if you do not have a helper, but with a bit of elbow grease and a few cuss words I got the job done solo. Highly recommend if you want to save a few hundred dollars over the factory setup.

Highly recommend this hitch. Was extremely easy to install >20 minutes. To make it easier lower the spare tire under your RAM with the provided tool which is located under the passenger seat. The main bolt that holds the hitch on is a 1-1/8 socket size which I didn't have so I picked that up and it went flawlessly from then on. The main bolt needs 260 ft lbs of torque. The two frame bolts need 110 ft lbs of torque. I used a 2' breaker bar and got those suckers TIGHT. Well worth the money, but install it yourself! It's so easy and will save you the installation fee at a shop. Cheers!

Purchased this January 2019 , read reviews and decided to try. Litterally took 10-15min to install in the snow. Very good product that came clean on time and with all necessary hardware. Installed on a 2018 Ram , and looks great. Definitely recommend!!

Unlike some other purchasers, my hitch lined up perfectly to my Tacoma frame with no issues . I fished 2 bolts through the frame with the wires provided. I was installing the hitch by myself so I used some wooden blocks to line it up & support it within about 1/2" of my frame. From there it was easy to insert & tighten all 6 bolts. Total install time was about 40 minutes with about 10 of that just getting the hitch on blocks & lined up.

2011 E350 XLT installed in under half hour with the help of my 6 year old son. Every bolt and hole lined up perfectly. Instructions are written very small and not intuitive. But was able to manage to make heads and tails of it.
