U-Haul trailer hitch self-install?

[NFATrustGuy]

If you’re not already committed to the UHaul brand, I’ve had great luck buying and then installing hitches purchased from eTrailer. I would bet that a UHaul hitch is just a relabeled Curt or Reese hitch anyway. ETrailer also usually has a plug and play trailer wiring harness available for just about anything.

As others have said, many modern vehicles already have attach points for hitches. I’ve done a half-dozen hitch installs over the years and the only one I had to have help with was on an old beater F250. I’ve got significantly more tool weaponry these days so I probably wouldn’t need help if I had it to do over today!

Always appreciate an excuse to buy more tools!

Cool, I'll look em up. I'm not beholden to UHaul.

All of the boxes I saw at the uhaul joint had Horizon Global on them. The company that owns Reese and Draw-tite.

Yep. Draw-tite. Couldn’t think of that name last night when I posted.
