Today, on our 2008 Toyota Highlander, we'll be installing the Draw-Tite trailer hitch,
part number 75586. Here's what the hitch looks like installed on our vehicle. Now,
we'll go ahead and give you a couple measurements in helping you choose some accessories for
your hitch, such as a ball mount, a bicycle rack, or a cargo carrier. From the center
of the hitch pinhole with the outermost edge of the bumper, it's approximately even,
but the receiver tube on the hitch does stick out approximately 2-1/2 inches past the rear
bumper. From the top of the opening in the receiver to the ground is approximately 14
inches. Now, let's go ahead and install our hitch. Now, you'll notice we've
already gone and lowered the spare tire down to make the installation just
a little
bit easier.
