Accessing the Trailer Hitch
The Cybertruck trailer hitch assembly is located behind the rear fascia of the vehicle, under the tailgate. Your vehicle is not equipped with a ball mount, which must be purchased separately based on your towing needs. Refer to your trailer's Owner's Manual for more information.
The trailer hitch cover is attached to the body of the vehicle with three turn clips. Use
a flat trim tool or non-marring screwdriver to partially turn and unlock the clips, then
remove the trailer hitch cover and place it in a secure, dry place. Once removed, you
can see where the ball mount can be installed.
When not actively towing, keep the cover installed to prevent dirt and debris from entering.
Note
The maximum permissible rear overhang
for the coupling point is 49 in (1.25 m), measuring from the center of the rear tire
toward the hitch receiver.
Note
Always attach safety chains when
towing. See your vehicle Owner's Manual for more information.
Ball Mount Specifications
A ball mount must be purchased separately based on your towing needs. The Cybertruck
hitch receiver supports a 2 in (5 cm) ball mount. Follow the ball mount
manufacturer's instructions for more information.
Note
Refer to the
manufacturer's instructions to properly maintain the ball mount.
