Review on CURT 45901: Adjustable Trailer Hitch Ball Mount - 2-Inch Receiver, 6-3/4-Inch Drop - 1-Inch Hole - 6,000 lbs Capacity by Marcus Zimmerly

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Affordable flexible heavy duty towbar

Beautifully made heavy duty adjustable towbar. A potential problem is that if your car has redundant warning sensors (depending on how it's installed), the sensors will trip due to that massive clutch. This happened to my Jeep Grand Cherokee. I could use a third set of mounting holes on the receiver tube to bring the hitch 2" closer to my bumper. easily removed (I think stolen). However, depending on the alignment of the coupling and the installation height, the bolt must not touch the back of the drawbar. My solution to this problem was to order two 5/8" clutch pins (Conner Towing 1615190 5/8" Class V, Black Nickel) to replace the ones Curt supplied. They have a full usable width of 3.5 inches and fit perfectly. You may only need one but they are great quality, well priced and the black nickel finish looks really nice with the black powder coated towbar.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
