Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Great fitment on the rav4 after installed. Installed on 2016 toyota rav4. All i know is it lined right up with my rav.

Using a jack and a suitable length of lumber the span was corrected. Just have to remove the dust cover on the left and lower the exhaust on the right. No damage when cranking bolts into a dirty hole. Easy to bolt on and easy to remove.

Received on date as promised. Product is as advertised and is very sturdy.



Cons

When i am notified this problem is corrected. Came either bent or slightly defective.

One of the four bolt is misaligned to the existing weldnuts of the frame. The slotting is a brilliant idea, until it is useless because the slots are maxed to the edge. It scraps on the gas tank and cannot get the holes to align.

Do not buy for 2010 toyota rav4. It is so frustrating spending 2-3 hours fighting with this mount trying to get it to work. If you want a hassle free install that takes ten minutes, this is not the hitch for you.

Quality


Fits perfect very sturdy and easy to install


Solid construction, easy to install and fits well.


Three of the four nuts are exposed to the elements and will have rust.


Bought this product for my 2015 rav, while installing the hitch the holes didnt line up on one side.

Price


I bought tap on amazon for $10, well worth it.


I ordered one online, but also found one at napa for $9 - part is "bk t372" and is called "tap - thread spark plug taps 12 mm - 1.


I purchased the said tap on home depot for $10.


I got it used "like new" my a$$.

Shipping


Arrived one day early so very fast shipping also.

Packaging/appearance


Bought on clearance damaged box hitch was fine easy install watch youtube for tips


My receiver came in a solid box with a questionable long hole in one side (pictures 1 & 2).


One thing: this ships in a big box with no packaging or anything to protect it, so the box basically comes apart in transit.


The box it came in was damaged but luckily no scratches on it.

Competitiveness


Other posts have equivalent taps from other suppliers.

    I recommend having some help item on the heavy side


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I dont know whats going on with all the 34the holes dont line up34 comments because they do at least if youre trying to fit this receiver to a 3rd gen rav


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only issue is that the alignments off just a tiny bit such that when youve got three bolts threaded in the last hole will always be off by maybe 11634


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Honestly the most difficult part of installing this hitch is getting access to the bolt thats above the exhaust resonator


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you have a shallower socket andor different torque wrench you may be able to avoid popping that rubber hanger


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I just stuck a flathead screwdriver in and pried the hanger off but if your hangers are old and hard it wont be any picnic


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I remember when i installed a hitch on another 3rd gen rav 20 years ago i ended up sawing the hanger off and just replacing it
