Reviews for DV8 Offroad Bolt-On Hitch for 07-22 Jeep Wrangler JK & JL
Easy install
Heavy duty for the price compared to others at that price
Be warned that this hitch is not rated for towing. I found out after purchasing and had to pay to return it as I don't see a reason to have a hitch that can't tow.
Definitely not a simple 4 bolt install. Had to remove the rear bumper. That being said the product was too wide for the bumper bracket and the bolts were too short. No installation instructions included.
DV8 claims that this hitch is NOT rated for use for towing!!!
Only for attaching accesories!!
Since it also has no load rating or tongue weight rating, I would never attach anything heavier than a bike rack!
Could be a simple bolt on install, but its not. The hitch bracket is at least 1/4 to 3/8" wider than the crossmember its supposed to bolt to. On top of that, the bolts are too short to use with all the washers they send. All the washers are needed because the bolt holes through the hitch are much than the shank of the bolts they send. Altogether a mess from an engineering standpoint. I wanted this hitch specifically for the light mounts but I wont install something this poorly engineered on the jeep. I'll go order a factory hitch now. I put a factory hitch on my JKU a few years back and it fit very well. I love aftermarket parts as much as the next person but they need to fit. Lesson learned.
