Reese Towpower 21171 2" Hitch Draw Bar

Great drop hitch. Strong structure, and fit my 08 Tahoe. Need a ball, but it's the perfect height.

I've had many Reese tow products over the years and have never been disappointed, this insert is no exception. This is the 1st time I've required 8" of drop; usually 6" has sufficed, but a recently acquired trailer needs it for a level ride behind my vehicle. Can't emphasize enough how much better a level trailer tows, with weight forward. This insert calmed my enclosed utility trailer considerably, especially when empty.

I couldn't believe the deal. This was under $20 so I was very skeptical on whether it was going to be good quality. It's exactly the same quality you find in any of the trailer stores. And for my Jeep Grand Cherokee overland, the 8-in drop worked perfectly for the 8 x 5 foot trailer I have.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: just what i needed

Really helps to clear the spare tire on the new style Bronco.

I think the quality is good for the price. There are better made draw bars for higher prices but, the difference would be mainly cosmetic. From the photos, it appears that the Curt brand is angled on the vertical part. I'm not sure why this would be an advantage but, its worth noting if that makes a difference to you. This item has labels/stickers that even cover the hitch pin hole. These labels are easily removable. The easiest and neatest way to remove them is to heat the draw bar to around 100F which is not too hot to handle and will not affect the powder coating. At this temperature, the labels will peel off easily without leaving a residue behind. This heating can be done a numbers of ways such as a heat gun, hair dryer, oven, inside a hot automobile or even in direct sun on a hot day. Don't use a direct flame and don't heat to a temperature that will damage the coating. Around 100F is all that is required.

This drawbar is possibly a little shorter than some but it is solidly constructed and fits perfectly. It does not have a hex-shaped recess to keep the ball from turning when you tighten the nut though so you will need to two wrenches and possibly an assistant to get the ball mounted on it. Still giving it five stars due to overall apparent quality.
