Good price. Solidly built

Positive: Fast delivery. Good price. Reliably done. Cons: I finally got the hitch past the bumper skirt and over the exhaust and then realized the mounting holes didn't line up with the holes in the car frame. hook removed. Adjust the ears on the hitch with a large hammer. Reinserted. Alignment checked. Still didn't fit. Repeated four more times. Finally got in shape. Two hours for what should have been 30 minutes. Notes: 1. Installing/adjusting the hitch and applying the correct torque to the…

Great product at a reasonable price

I bought this for my 2006 Scion XB. I managed to install it directly in the entrance. You need a pneumatic impact tool to remove factory anchor bolts, or you just have to be incredibly strong.

Bad setup, needs modification to work on XB.

The clutch arrived today and I wanted to install it immediately. I am a mechanical engineer and am familiar with commercial systems and machines. I build hot rods as a hobby, weld and do lots of things etc. I've seen a few people say the holes didn't match their XB but I thought maybe it was almost the same. The installation time is given as 30 minutes for amateurs and 15 minutes for shops. I had 30 minutes and I can usually beat the store's time. I burned my half hour and the tow hitch is on…

Pros
  • HIGH VERSATILITY. Add versatile towing capabilities to your vehicle with this Class 1 hitch. It features a standard 1-1/4" square hitch and comes with a 3/4" ball hole for hitching a small trailer.
Cons
  • High price
