Hitch Pin/Clip

Question 1

What is the trailer hitch receiver size?

Accepted Answer

The receiver size is the opening on the hitch where you insert the ball mount. Standard receiver sizes are 1 ¼ inches and 2 inches. The receiver size determines the type of ball mount you can use and will correspond to the size of the ball on the trailer.

Question 2

Can I install a trailer hitch myself?

Accepted Answer

Installing a trailer hitch is straightforward and can be done by someone with basic DIY skills. However, it's important to read the manufacturer's instructions carefully and ensure you have the proper tools and equipment. If you're unsure, having a professional install it is always best.

Question 4

Which hitches brands are available at The Home Depot?

Accepted Answer

We carry a wide variety of the top brands of hitches, such as Big Red, TowSmart, and Everbilt.

Question 5

What is a trailer hitch weight rating?

Accepted Answer

The weight rating, or tongue weight, is the maximum downward force the hitch can handle. It's important to choose a hitch with a weight rating higher than the tongue weight of your trailer. This will ensure the hitch is strong enough to handle the trailer's weight.

Question 6

How do I choose the right trailer hitch for my vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Start by checking your vehicle's make, model, and year to ensure the hitch is compatible with your specific car. The weight you plan to tow will determine the required hitch strength, so consider both your trailer's size and what you'll be hauling.
