Draw-Tite Class 3 Trailer Hitch 2 in Receiver - Solid Towing

Our review of the Draw-Tite Class 3 Trailer Hitch finds it ideal for Blazer and Acadia owners who need a durable, no-nonsense towing solution. The bottom line: this hitch is built from solid, all-welded steel with a protective black powder coat that delivers reliable strength and corrosion resistance, making it a practical choice for light to medium towing tasks up to 4,500 lbs. It is not a flamboyant accessory but a purpose-driven receiver that installs cleanly and stays out of the way when not in use.

Key Features

• Vehicle fit: Designed specifically for 2019-2026 Chevrolet Blazer and 2017-2023 GMC Acadia to ensure a precise, manufacturer-aligned installation.
• Construction: Solid, all-welded steel construction provides maximum strength and a stable tow point for trailers and cargo carriers.
• Finish: Two-part black powder coat protects the hitch from rust and corrosion for longer service life in road conditions.
• Capacity: Rated for up to 4,500 lbs. GTW and 675 lbs. TW, and compatible with weight distribution systems up to those same limits for heavier trailers.
• Standards tested: Engineered and tested to meet or exceed V-5 and SAE J684 standards for confidence during towing.
• Accessory ready: The 2 in square receiver accepts common accessories such as bike racks, cargo carriers, and ball mounts for versatile use.

Who It's For

This hitch is best for drivers of compatible Chevrolet Blazer and GMC Acadia models who tow occasionally or often and want a professionally built, vehicle-specific receiver. It will suit weekend boat haulers, small trailer users and anyone who plans to carry aftermarket accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers on a 2 in receiver.

It is less appropriate for heavy commercial towing beyond the listed 4,500 lbs. GTW or for buyers who expect installation hardware to always be included; customers report mixed experiences with the included hardware, so plan to check or supply your own fasteners if necessary.
