I uploaded a picture of my 2017 Toyota Sienna with 1.25″ hitch. I had issues with the bolts sticking down and occasionally scraping the ground so I installed the device upsidedown. I can’t remember if I cut down the bolts….I think they just worked.It completely eliminated any clunking and I’m very happy.Notice the u-bolt is around the section of the hitch you insert NOT the section of the hitch attached to the vehicle. I saw another picture uploaded which was incorrect.

Works great for me on a 1-1/4″ receiver. I normally use it when I have my bike rack mounted, but it’s worked just fine with an actual trailer too. It takes almost all of the rattle out of the drawbar. My car is pretty quiet and I noticed the difference immediately. The first time I installed it, some of the powder coat on the inside corners rubbed off. I was worried that it would start rusting there, but it hasn’t yet after several more uses.I did notice that the hardware loosened up after driving for a while, even when run down pretty tight. I ended up drilling 1/8″ holes through the ends of the U-bolt and installing cotter pins to retain the nuts and washers. I didn’t like the idea of any of the pieces falling off of my car at highway speeds. Now the nuts are permanently captured and I can still loosen it enough to slip it over the receiver for installation and removal.Overall, it’s a great product. I’m glad I spent a little bit more to get the one that was made in the USA.

Excellent product – rattling from hitch virtually eliminated. Wish I’d found this hitch tightener years ago!UPDATE #1: I installed three of these on my hitch set-up during a cross country trip. After the 3rd stop – where I always check to make sure everything is tight and secure I realized that both nuts on one of these brackets were striped. After reading other reviews I had been VERY careful not to over-tighten them when installing them.I had a dual hitch bicycle receiver (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000P6CJ9O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) attached to my my vehicle’s receiver – which is where the hitch tightener failed. I then had a hitch mount bike rack attached to the upper receiver slot and a standard 2″ hitch ball inserted in the lower receiver slot (see pic). The hitch tighteners at both of those other two connections worked perfectly – so I’m thinking the flexing of the hitch extender piece in the receiver simply put too much stress on the nut threads. It’s possible I may have been asking it to do more than was realistic.UPDATE #2: After posting my initial update I was contacted by the seller – who did a great job resolving the issue and ensuring I had what I needed for the return trip home. I was very impressed with the customer service/support and happily recommend this product and company. Just keep in mind that the torque/stresses placed on hitch connections (especially unconventional ones like my situation) can potentially be too much for any hitch tightener to handle.
