### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The installation takes 10 minutes with two people.
*by H***R on December 5, 2025*

Great hitch, easy to install.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heavy duty trailer hitch
*by B***B on October 6, 2025*

Very well made hitch . Not hard to install yourself but I suggest an extra pair of hands to hold in place, while attaching.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product and easy install
*by J***O on January 27, 2025*

Perfect fit for 2021 Ford Range XLT. Took longer to get the tools than to install. The instructions are listed on Amazon and a paper copy in the receiver hole. You’re gonna need a 21 mm socket, 2 strong clamps, and 20 minutes. Loosening your spare will give more room for the install. Also, pay attention to your bumper’s position before tightening, it can move in or out.
