The 10 Best Receiver Hitches

The Curt 14301 (around $143) is suitable for a wide range of tasks, as you can use it for everything from installing a ball mount to hooking up a bike rack. It should look good for the long haul regardless of what you attach to it, as it's rust-, chip-, and UV-resistant.

You only have to attach four bolts to install the Quick Products QP-HS5839 (around $23) on your truck, so even non-mechanically-inclined users will be able to put it on themselves. That also makes it easy to take off in case you need to use it on another vehicle.

You don't have to choose between pulling a trailer or carrying a bike rack with the HiTow Dual (around $36), as it has two receivers stacked on top of each other. The bottom one is designed for towing, while the top is intended for mounting accessories.

Anyone wanting to attach a bike rack or similar to the back of their RV should consider the Betooll Monoblock (appx. $26). It comes with zinc-plated U-bolts that hook over the bumper, enabling it to be installed or removed in just a few minutes.

The Curt 49060 (about $15) is specifically intended for custom setups, as it's crafted from raw steel that can be welded in place. It does come with a predrilled hole for a hitch pin, though, so you won't have to do everything yourself.

The Oedro Combo (around $70) lets you turn your Jeep into a lean, mean towing machine, as it can hook up to your vehicle without requiring you to trim the bumper or fascia. It's designed specifically for Wranglers, so the bolts should line up perfectly with their mounting holes.

The Buyers Products 1804055 (about $43) can pull loads weighing up to 20,000 pounds and can support another 2,000 on the tongue, so it's a smart choice for anyone who regularly hauls heavy cargo. It has a powder-coated finish to help prevent corrosion.

You can hook the Towever 83801 (appx. $33) up to your RV if you want to attach a bike rack or a spare tire to your rear bumper, as it can support about 200 pounds on the tongue. This one can be installed up or down on the beams, giving you some options.

The versatile MaxxHaul 70036 (around $24) gives you more than just a place to hook up to a trailer, as it also has a step attached. This allows you to reach items in the bed of your truck or on the roof rack of your SUV with minimal strain.

The Towever 83803 (appx. $42) is designed to sit low on your RV's bumper, creating a more level ride for the trailer you're hauling. If that doesn't suit your needs, though, it can also be mounted upside-down to give you another angle to work with.
