Fits my Bronco Big Bend. Pin included.
Hitch now clears my spare tire. The pin is shipped inside the 2" metal tube. The plastic sticker hides it, so at first glance opening the box it would appear the pin is missing. I found mine in under a minute...

Works as it should
It’s a drop hitch, doesn’t do much. Fits the receiver like it should. Includes pin and lock pin.

Perfect for our Ford Timberline Explorer
This hitch is perfect for trailering with our 2023 Ford Timberline Explorer. The 3 1/4 drop hitch allows you to trailer with your load being level. It’s sturdy and simple install and remove in seconds. The price was inexpensive and well worth the purchase. Delivery was quick.

Durable & a bargain!
My hubs loves it. He was so excited to find this on here for a fraction of that cost that some of our local retailers sell this exact same hitch for! Win!

It didn't come with the hitch pin & clip as mentioned in the description.
The hitch itself is heavy duty and I have no complaints about it. I didn't end up using it as I determined it had too much of a drop for my needs. Also, the hitch was just wrapped in some brown paper in the delivery box, no plastic or other protective box. Also, no hitch pin & clip included as it says in the description. Without those, the hitch is useless. Yes, I could have gone to my local auto parts store and obtained a pin & clip, they're mostly universal size, but why should I if they're supposed to be included. Anyway, I returned the hitch for a refund.

Great hitch, but here's a helpful tip!
Works great, nice and sturdy, great brand at a great price. But here's a troubleshooting tip from my own experience! If you're hooked up using this product and now have no trailer or camper lights working, it may not be grounding properly through the hitch, especially if testing shows wiring good on the vehicle and the trailer. You just need to get a couple of small pipe wrenches or large crescent wrenches and carefully loosen the ball and nut on the hitch just a half turn to full turn. This will wear off the paint that was on the hitch before the ball was put on at the factory. With mine, only took a half turn to do the trick, and all my lights went to working perfect due to now having a proper ground. Easiest way to do this? Put your hitch sideways into your vehicle receiver and turn your wrenches right there. Super tight, so you may have to stand on the bumper and put a foot down on that wrench for added pressure.

Reese makes good products!
Needed a 2 inch rise tow bar-flipped over and this was perfect value for the money. Performance is excellent as I have found with my other Reese towing products. Pin included.
