Pros & Cons

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

Pros

Protrude hitch is super solid, very well built. Very durable and should last a long time. Prob from shipping.

This is my 3rd curtis hitch, and the easiest one i've ever installed. Not an easy install on the volvo xc90, but worth it. Google, installation of a trailer hitch on a 2007 volvo xc90 - etrailer.



Cons

The included bolts do the job, but it was a real pita that they made them a different size than the 4 reused factory bolts. Once the hitch is installed it is almost impossible to put the spare tire back in place.

Quality


Very sturdy and should last a long time.


It is super solid, very well built.


Reinserted the muffler plate below the hitch and bolted both to the body loosely using the original two bolts.


Once the muffler was released, to allow clearance, the spare tire was removed (which i had never done in 10+ years), the existi...  Read More

Price


This is a great hitch for the money.


It's ok for how inexpensive it is.


I was able to install this my self in less than 30-minutes total from the time i opened the box and for less than half of the price.

Shipping


Shipped quickly, install was very quick and easy, took me about 35 minutes.


Fix the shipping issues and you've really got something great.


I received this in a timely manner.


I gave the product 5 stars, but a bad review for shipping.

Packaging/appearance


However, and i've left this in the packaging review, it wasn't in any sort of packaging.


And made note of the lack of packaging.

Competitiveness


Also, the receiver seems to stick a little further out rearward than others i've seen on xc90s - maybe an inch or so.


If you purchase this hitch save yourself a lot of time by taking a measurement of mounting holes on volvo (side to side) and ve...  Read More

    Able to install by myself but would expedite if 2 person is installing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not hard at all even a caveman can do it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Or at least a mention in the manual to check they are still 90 deg angles and if not use a small sledge hammer to bend back


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Personally when i installed i saw both sides at slight angle and thought maybe that was normal and after some wrangling to get it up in position it wouldnt bolt in so i had to drop it back and 34persuade it34 into position


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So after reading all the negative reviews about bad welds poor shipping accommodation and damaged products i still decided to give this product a try


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only negatives were the box that it was delivered in was destroyed understandable with it being so heavy and you’re going to need a small spacerwashers for the exhaust hanger because it just barely touches the hitch bar unmodified


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Getting it to fit under the exhaust was a challenge it’s pretty heavy and just about squeezes past once the exhaust is lowered


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It meant that i had more room to work to align the hitch on the other side of the car
