Receiver Hitches
Receiver Hitches
What is a receiver hitch?
A receiver hitch is a trailer hitch that bolts or welds onto the underside of a vehicle, and provides a square tube receptacle for inserting a ball mount. When not in use, the hitch receiver can also be used for other hitch accessories, such as hitch steps, hitch cameras, hitch covers, and receiver plugs. Receiver hitches are manufactured to adhere to one of five hitch classes, and are vehicle-specific to ensure proper fit. Receiver hitches are divided into 5 classes, depending on their towing capacity and receiver tube size. The higher the class number, the higher the capacity and the larger the receiver tube is. While it is helpful to distinguish between the various tow hitch classes, it is important to note that most receiver hitches are made vehicle-specific. In other words, not all 5 classes are available for each vehicle.
