EcoHitch® Trailer Hitch Strength

Coated in high-impact powder coat with a Chasm Black finish, our hitches are meticulously sandblasted for maximum durability. Made from a combination of aerospace-grade aluminum, stainless steel, and steel.

American-Made with a REAL Warranty

Proudly Made in America, our Focus RS hitch is backed by our Legendary Lifetime Warranty. Our knowledgeable team is ready to assist you with installation and support.

EcoHitch - Hidden:
All EcoHitch models are precision manufactured to have hidden crosstubes when installed. The only part of the hitch that is ever visible is the receiver and has a higher level of ground clearance than most hitches available.

***IMPORTANT NOTICE:

While EcoHitch®️ trailer hitches are built with high-strength materials and tested for exceptional weight ratings, your vehicle’s factory towing capacities are the ultimate limit. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual to determine its maximum towing and tongue weight ratings. No aftermarket hitch or accessory can increase your vehicle’s factory-rated towing capacities.

Using hauling accessories like extensions, cargo trays, bike racks, or other accessories that extend the load out from the trailer hitch, will significantly reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch system.

To estimate how your setup will affect tongue weight, we recommend using our Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator before hauling your payload (cargo trays, bike racks, etc).

Disclaimer:It is the user’s responsibility to ensure safe towing practices and to confirm that all loads fall within the limits of the lowest-rated component in the towing system. Torklift is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from the misuse or overloading of towing/hauling equipment.

First impression, OMG! It's heavy duty! It definitely will tow whatever the vehicle can.

I will modify it for only a couple of e-mountain bikes so should be sturdy.

Shipping was amazing. Came 3 days before projected.
The only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 is the instructions were very hard to read. The diagram photos were very dark and hard to see the directives.
Other than that I went in perfect.

Awesome!! Would definitely use them again when needed!

Amazing shipping ship to my house less than two days for free shipping! I was super scared about this not working on my car since there wasn't any review reviews or anything and it went on my RS perfect. It really wasn't too bad. I just had to takeoff the rear bumper. Only thing I could complain about would be the instructions were a little bit blurry to see. But other than that, it wasn't bad at all, and I saved myself a lot of money for doing it myself. But It went on my focus RS great. I've been using it for the last three months no problems
Great hitch, works as advertised!
Review by
The hitch looks great and sits evenly in the center of my bumper. I loved how the receiver involved minimal cutting and no drilling. The only cutting involved was a small notch into the rear diffuser toward the center of the car (the side no one can see unless they're lying down beneath the car).

Overall, the install took me about 2 hours due to this being the first time I have installed a tow hitch on this car and my own excessive caution. If I had to do it again, it would probably take me just under an hour and a half. It really helped me to remove my rear wheels during the installation just to get them out of the way.
