Once its in place, youll appreciate how snugly it fits, preserving your ground clearance and departure angle. No one wants to worry about dragging their hitch over rocks or obstacles, right? The receiver tube is a solid 2 inches, and it uses a 5/8-inch pin (just a heads-up, that pin isnt included). The design is smart, toothere are cutouts for safety chains, which means you wont have to worry about your gear coming loose when youre out on the trails. Plus, the inset hitch design keeps everything tucked away, giving you that extra clearance you need for serious off-roading. One of the standout features is the integrated mounting point for your factory 7 Pin Wiring Connector. This is a big deal because its positioned high and angled, which helps protect it from trail damage. Installation is a breeze, thanks to the same cutout pattern as the factory setup. Youll be able to plug your connector in without any hassle. Its these little details that make a huge difference when youre out there pushing your Jeep to its limits. Weighing in at 43 lbs, this hitch is robust without being overly cumbersome. It ships in raw steel, so you can customize it to match your Gladiators look.

Knowing your Gladiator well and understanding its limits will keep you safe and sound on the trails. This hitch fits all Jeep Gladiator models from 2020 to 2023, so if youve got one of those, youre in luck.
