Trailer Hitch Installation in Alberta
Need to tow a utility trailer, camper, boat or equipment trailer? Raven Truck Accessories supplies and installs CURT trailer hitches for many trucks, SUVs, crossovers and vans.
Our team will confirm the correct hitch for your vehicle, towing needs and trailer connection. Professional trailer hitch installation is available at Raven locations in Grande Prairie, Edson, Edmonton, Red Deer and Calgary.
Start with Your Vehicle and Towing Needs
Choosing a trailer hitch involves more than matching it to a vehicle. The hitch, ball mount, hitch ball, wiring and other towing components must suit both the vehicle and the trailer.
When helping you select a hitch, Raven will ask about:
- Your vehicle’s year, make and model
- What you plan to tow
- The trailer’s loaded weight
- Tongue weight
- Receiver size
- Trailer coupler height
- Wiring connector requirements
- How frequently you tow
- Whether a brake controller or weight distribution system may be required
The lowest-rated component in the towing setup determines the overall limit. Installing a higher-rated hitch does not increase the towing capacity specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
CURT Trailer Hitches and Towing Accessories
Raven carries CURT Manufacturing hitches and towing products for a wide range of vehicle applications.
Available products vary by vehicle and may include:
- Rear receiver hitches
- Front-mount receiver hitches
- Ball mounts
- Trailer hitch balls
- Hitch pins and locks
- Trailer wiring harnesses
- Electrical connectors and adapters
- Brake controllers
- Weight distribution equipment
- Fifth-wheel and gooseneck hitches
- Other towing accessories
Our team will confirm which CURT hitch and related components are compatible with your vehicle before providing a quote.
What Is Included with Trailer Hitch Installation?
A standard receiver hitch installation generally includes:
- Confirming the hitch application
- Inspecting the vehicle’s mounting area
- Positioning and securing the hitch
- Installing the supplied vehicle-specific hardware
- Torquing applicable fasteners to the required specifications
- Checking receiver position and clearance
- Reviewing the installed hitch with the customer
Trailer wiring, brake controllers, ball mounts and other towing components are separate products and may require additional installation. Raven can include these items in the same quote when needed.
Trailer Wiring and Brake Controllers
Many trailers require an electrical connection for signal lights, brake lights and other functions. Depending on your vehicle and trailer, your setup may need a four-pin or seven-pin connector, a vehicle-specific wiring harness or additional electrical components.
Trailers with electric brakes may also require a compatible trailer brake controller. Raven can help identify the connection and control equipment required for your towing setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to install a trailer hitch?
Installation time varies by vehicle and hitch design. Some applications use accessible factory mounting points, while others require additional vehicle-specific work. Your Raven location can provide an estimate after confirming the hitch.
Do I need trailer wiring with a new hitch?
You will need a trailer wiring connection if the trailer has signal lights, brake lights or electric brakes. Raven can help determine the correct wiring harness and connector for your vehicle and trailer.
Does installing a hitch increase my vehicle’s towing capacity?
No. A trailer hitch does not increase the towing capacity established by the vehicle manufacturer. Always follow the vehicle, hitch and trailer weight limits.
Can Raven install a hitch I purchased elsewhere?
Yes. Contact your nearest Raven store with the hitch brand, part number, condition and vehicle information. The team will confirm whether it is complete, compatible and suitable for installation.
Does Raven install fifth-wheel and gooseneck hitches?
Yes. Contact Raven with your truck and trailer information. Available fifth-wheel and gooseneck hitch options depend on the vehicle, bed configuration, trailer and intended use.
