A trailer hitch is a device attached to your vehicle’s frame that enables towing. It provides a secure connection point for trailers, bike racks, cargo carriers, and towing accessories. Vehicle hitches come in several classes based on towing capacity.

Common hitch types include:

• Receiver hitches (Class I–V) – Best for everyday towing and hitch-mounted accessories.
• Gooseneck hitches – Designed for heavy-duty truck towing.
• Fifth-wheel hitches – Ideal for RVs and large trailers.
• Bumper hitches – For light-duty towing.
• Weight distribution hitches – Improve stability and reduce trailer sway.

Hitch classes are rated by towing capacity:

• Class I: Up to 2,000 lbs
• Class II: Up to 3,500 lbs
• Class III: Up to 6,000 lbs
• Class IV: Up to 10,000 lbs
• Class V: 10,000+ lbs

Receiver tube sizes vary by vehicle:

• 1.25-inch receiver: Compact cars and small SUVs
• 2-inch receiver: Most SUVs and trucks
• 2.5–3 inch receivers: Heavy-duty trucks

A trailer wiring harness provides power to your trailer lights. Common wiring types:

• 4-pin: Brake lights, running lights, and turn signals
• 5-pin: Adds reverse light signal
• 6-pin and 7-pin: Supports electric brakes and auxiliary power

You may need a weight distribution hitch if:

• The rear of your vehicle sags
• You tow more than 5,000 lbs
• You experience trailer sway or instability

Most receiver hitches are bolt-on installations requiring basic specialized tools. DIY hitch installation usually takes 1-3 hours, though we highly recommend professional assistance.

Modern vehicles typically feature factory-drilled mounting points, meaning no drilling is required. Certain older vehicles may require minor drilling for hitch alignment.

Tongue weight is the downward force the trailer exerts on your hitch.

• General rule: 10–15% of the trailer’s total weight.
• This affects safety, stability, and sway control.

To reduce trailer sway:

• Ensure proper tongue weight
• Load heavier items toward the front
• Use sway control or a weight distribution hitch
• Drive at a safe towing speed
• Maintain proper tire pressure

Yes — most hitches support hitch-mounted bike racks and cargo carriers as long as you follow the vehicle’s tongue weight rating and choose the correct receiver size. Click here to view various options for carriers.
