CURT 13182 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver, Fits Select Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2 , Black

Fast shipping!!! Great product, Very easy to install it took my husband 25 to 30 min maximum. We are ready to take ur jet ski for adventure!

I think the tubulars look better than square. Has nice high gloss powder coat. Other reviews complained about delivered in just paper wrap so I was slightly worried about scratches (that will rust) but then it showed up... it was in an Amazon box but inside that was the Curt 1/2in thick double box and blown foam bag. Maybe others got a refurb or maybe Curt (over) responded to complaints but I've had plasma TVs delivered in less secure packaging. GOOD JOB CURT! Instructions are clear and amount to remove four bolts, maybe scrape a bit of caulk back, mount and tighten bolts. Super easy. Torque to 128lbs. I'd recommend a torque wrench but suppose you could just crank down about as hard as possible, but torque wrenches are not pricey. Tip: it calls for a 22mm socket which most folks aren't going to have but what you may have is a 13/16. They are the same size. Tip: never use a torque wrench to remove bolts, you will ruin it. A 3/8 will likely snap. To remove the bolts use a breaker bar or what I did which is a wrench and a hammer. Few whacks and it was loose enough to finish out with a ratchet. Tip: Put a blanket down as this thing is heavy and you don't want to scratch it and have rust start before it's time. Tip: I searched a long time for the wiring harness before I realized all 2014 Jeep GCs come with 7 wire plug installed. Nice to have adapter to common 4 wire and the part number is 55515. See reviews for wire- not confirmed but another review said the car computer needs set in order to turn on the power to trailer plug (a great tip that could save TONS of time and frustration- if true). I plan to use a 2in drop but flip it for a 2in rise. It hangs low but I don't see any problem. it could maybe be a touch tighter to bumper but not a big deal. For the same price I'd love a factory hitch but this was a fraction of the price and took 10 minutes.

You just take the 4 bolts out from the frame, slide this in place and tighten them back down. No issues, came I'm good condition and install was very easy. I haven't actually towed anything yet but I feel confident about it. It also has some heft to it, which feels like quality to me.

4 screws, 5 min install

-I bought this as an open box item. It said the packaging was damaged and had some scratches on it. Guys... it's a hitch. I bought it for $70 thanks to poor handling from the package carriers and some person who thought a hitch should come perfect if they paid $125 for it haha sooooo anyways, win for me.-I drive a 2012 Dodge Durango Crew AWD.-This hitch is made to go underneath the bumper, not through it. I didn't have a hidden hitch bumper so I didn't even want to deal with cutting bumpers and finding a compatible OEM bumper for it. This works justttttttttt fine.-It arrived in the condition it said it would, scratched a little bit.-I would recommend a 2 person crew with some muscular fortitude. In other words, don't bring your 10 year old son to hold it up.-I did this by myself. I bought out jack stands to use to balance this while I removed the 4 bolts that are on the Durango and then mounted this while screwing back in the bolts. It's that simple... So anyways, I got underneath my Durango and without removing the spare tire I got all 4 bolts out. I was unsure about the fit at first but once I angled everything correctly I slap-bumped this hitch into place. It didn't take a lot of force but when it slid into place, TO MY DELIGHT, it stayed exactly in place. So I kept a hand up incase it slipped until I started threading a bolt on each side. Then, I finished putting the bolts in.*recommendation- take the time to lower the spare tire so you have adequate room to maneuver your arms, elbows, wrists, and hands. Trust me. It's ALOT easier to lower the spare tire than it is to take the tiniest baby turns with a wrench putting these bolts back in. Other than that, wonderful product, snug fit, I've only pulled a few small utility trailers so far but regardless I've had no issues.

Installed on my 2018 Grand Cherokee, installation was not bad at all, just remove the 4 bolts in the frame, I did it myself, so I was on my back put the hitch on my chest and lifted the hitch up and just started one bolt at a time, and then just tightened them as tight as possible, I don’t have a torque wrench, but they are good and tight for sure, I’m just using it to carry bikes for now. The longest part of the install was getting the amazon shipping label off, why stick it on the hitch, sometimes I think they do it on purpose. The hitch arrived by itself with a little cardboard and wrap, of course it was scratched up some, I’m going to have to get some gloss black paint to touch it up, I know some say it’s just a hitch, but I have a new 2018 vehicle with no scratches, I don’t like the scratches. I bought the Jeep cover from amazon, gives it a good finishing touch. Really nice hitch for the money. After I touch it up it will look like new.

Mounted perfectly on my 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Only took about 10 minutes. Well built and arrived in perfect condition. Would definitely recommend. Looks good and low profile

Easy installation and very well made
