Universal Standard Aluminum 2" Adjustable Receiver Hitch Ball Mount 5000Lb
Towbars & Wiring Kits
Get your vehicle tow-ready with our curated Towbars & Wiring Kits collection. Whether you’re setting up a daily driver for light-duty trailers or equipping a truck or SUV for weekend adventures, you’ll find vehicle-specific towbars in durable finishes and plug-and-play wiring that connects safely to modern electrical systems. From corrosion-resistant steel receivers in classic black to aluminum adjustable ball mounts and weather-sealed harnesses, every component is chosen to make towing simpler, safer, and cleaner to install.
Built for confident towing
Our assortment includes receiver-style towbars in popular classes for 2-inch hitches, engineered from high-strength steel and finished in tough black powder coat to resist chips, salt, and UV exposure. Pair your hitch with wiring kits that use tinned-copper conductors and OE-style, color-coded connectors for reliable signal transfer. Many kits feature powered modules that isolate your vehicle’s sensitive electronics from trailer loads, along with weatherproof housings and grommets to keep moisture out. The result: a factory-style fit and a clean look that blends with your bumper line and exterior trim.
Choosing your hitch and harness
Receiver sizes, classes, and ball mounts
For North American vehicles, a 2-inch receiver is the most common standard for Class III and many Class IV applications. If you need flexibility across multiple trailers, consider an adjustable ball mount. A customer favorite in this collection is our Universal Standard Aluminum 2" Adjustable Receiver Hitch Ball Mount (rated up to 5,000 lb). Its rustproof aluminum body keeps weight down while delivering a strong, secure connection, and the adjustable rise/drop helps you level your trailer to reduce sway and uneven tire wear.
4-pin vs. 7-way trailer wiring
Pick a wiring kit that matches your trailer’s connector. A 4-pin flat handles the essentials—running lights, left/right turn, and brake lights. A 7-way RV blade adds circuits for trailer brakes, reverse lights, and 12V auxiliary power. Many of our vehicle-specific T-harnesses plug directly into factory tail light connectors (no splicing), while powered modules protect CANBUS and LED systems from overload. For harsh climates, look for features like sealed relays, fused power leads, and weatherproof boots—details that pay off in long-term reliability.
Towbars & wiring kits Ford drivers trust
If you’re searching for “Towbars & wiring kits Ford,” we’ve got you covered with options that align with popular Ford trucks and SUVs. For models like the F-150, Ranger, Expedition, Explorer, and Bronco, you’ll typically use a 2-inch receiver and either a 4-pin or 7-way connector depending on the trailer. Many Ford-specific kits use OE-style plugs behind the tail lamps and include a powered module to remain compatible with factory LED lighting and safety systems. Always verify capacity and fitment by year, trim, and existing tow package before checkout.
Materials and finishes that last
Hitches in this collection use welded, high-strength steel for the receiver and mounting arms, then receive a multi-stage protective finish—typically a black e-coat base plus powder-coated topcoat—to resist rust and abrasion. Hardware commonly includes plated or stainless options to prevent galvanic corrosion. Ball mounts and coupler hardware are offered in black, silver, or polished finishes; our aluminum adjustable ball mounts are naturally corrosion-resistant and lighter to handle, making installation and adjustment easier in all seasons. For wiring, UV-stable housings, abrasion-resistant loom, and marine-grade terminals help maintain signal integrity over years of use.
Install notes and safety best practices
Most vehicle-specific towbars use existing frame mounting points for a bolt-on installation; some applications may require minor bumper or undertray trimming. Use a torque wrench and follow the manufacturer’s torque specs for all fasteners. For wiring, run fused power directly from the battery when using a powered module, secure grounds to clean, bare metal, and route the harness away from sharp edges and heat sources. Seal exterior connections with dielectric grease, and finish with a tidy loom for a factory look. After installation, test all lighting functions and confirm trailer height with your adjustable ball mount to keep the setup level.

Frequently asked questions
Which towbar class do I need?
Match the class to your vehicle’s tow rating and your trailer’s weight. Most midsize SUVs and half-ton trucks pair well with a Class III 2-inch receiver, while heavier setups may require Class IV. Always respect the lowest-rated component in your system—vehicle, hitch, ball mount, or coupler.
Should I choose a 4-pin or a 7-way connector?
Choose a 4-pin if your trailer only needs running, turn, and brake lights. Go with a 7-way if you require electric trailer brakes, reverse lights, or 12V auxiliary power. You can add a 7-to-4 adapter for flexibility when towing different trailers.
Are these wiring kits compatible with CANBUS and LED lighting?
Yes—our powered, vehicle-specific harnesses are designed to work with modern CANBUS and LED systems. The module draws power directly from the battery and uses low-current signal taps or OE connectors to avoid overloading the factory circuits.
Will installation require drilling or bumper trimming?
Most vehicle-specific hitches bolt to factory mounting points with no drilling. Some models may need minor trimming of an undertray or a small fascia cut for the receiver opening; check your product’s installation guide for details before ordering.
How do I pick the right drop or rise on a ball mount?
Measure from the ground to the inside top of your vehicle’s receiver, then measure from the ground to your trailer coupler’s level height. The difference equals the required drop or rise. An adjustable 2-inch ball mount rated up to 5,000 lb gives you the range to level multiple trailers.
Do you carry Towbars & wiring kits for Ford vehicles?
Yes—look for Ford-specific fits across popular trucks and SUVs. Use the year/make/model filter to find receivers and plug-in harnesses that align with your factory lighting and optional tow packages.
Can I add a brake controller with these wiring kits?
For trailers with electric brakes, choose a 7-way solution and a brake controller. Many vehicles can use a plug-in adapter for the controller inside the cabin; confirm compatibility and fuse capacity for a reliable, clean installation.
What maintenance should I do after installation?
Re-torque hitch hardware after the first few hundred miles and at service intervals. Keep the receiver and wiring connector clean, use dielectric grease on terminals, and inspect for rust, abrasions, or loose fasteners—especially after winter driving.
