Trailer hitch part number

[sschultze]

Does anyone have the Volvo part number for the hitch to mount to a 2001? I'm looking for a part number for the pre-2" square style hitch currently being sold by Volvo. Thanks.

Before the current 2" hitch, the hitch sold by Volvo was metric and It was for the first gen XC. I passed on that hitch for my 99XC as I could not get anything US to mate with it. I installed a Drawtite 1&1/4" hitch on the 99XC. Be sure it will fit the 2nd gen XC?
My 2003XC has the Volvo 2" hitch and it works great!-Dick

Perhaps this is a dumb question....

I've decided to self-install the Volvo 2" hitch on my 2004 XC70.

Where is the best place to purchase the kit? Is dealer the only option or is there something cheaper? If so, what's the nomenclature on the hitch?

Thanks.

Not sure if this is the best source to purchase the hitch, but several members have used Autowebaccessories to order other Volvo related items.

You can find instructions for the hitch installation in the following link.

Key in your model, year and then type in towbar to access the file.

Hi,
Perhaps the attached pdf's can be of help.
I didn't find any differences between MY2001/02/03/04.

Thanks to you both for the information. That's great.

These guys were the only source of 2" trailer hitches I could find for my 2004 XC70.
