Great hitch, easy to install
Of all the hitch options for this range of Toyota trucks, I chose the Valley for its ease of installation (the two side brackets install first, then the main hitch bolts to its side brackets, meaning you don't have to balance a huge hitch on your chest while you vainly attempt to slide it into place and get a bolt through), and good looks. The Valley's tube body tucks up very cleanly behind the bumper. I was replacing an existing hitch that was just a low-slung square tube, and in comparison, the Valley is almost invisible, tucked very close to the bumper, leaving plenty of room for the exhaust and the spare tire. Ground clearance is as good as any hitch could be, and better than most.

Valley Receiver Easy to Install and Looks Good
The three piece hitch was easy to install. I found it easier to remove the bumper. Just bolt the two side brackets on and then the receiver bracket last. The only part where I could have used help was getting the receiver bracket in place between the side brackets. You need to spread the side brackets slightly to get the receiver bracket in. The good part is once you get the receiver bracket between the side brackets, the pressure will hold it in place while you install the bolts.This hitch looks good on my Toyota Tacoma Prerunner, with only the 2" receiver showing below my bumper. You don't see any of the brackets, they are all tucked up out of sight. This was a great choice for me.

This thing looks great under there.
I chose this hitch because of its price, but it worked out really well. It looks really good when installed, just the receiver is visible below the bumper. I picked up a Toyota hitch cover and it looks like it came from the factory.

It can be installed to tow trailers, motorcycles, bikes, garden tractors and other items. Two general types of hitches exist: the weight-carrying hitches and the weight-distributing hitches. Weight-carrying hitches are often used when towing lighter loads while weight-distributing hitches are generally used for larger, heavier trails. Ball mount, pin and clip are sold separately. Maximum gross trailer weight (GTW) is from 3,500 to 15,000 pounds and tongue weight (TW) is from 350 to 1,500 pounds. All Valley trailer hitches have a limited lifetime warranty. Top to learn more
