A swivel hitch device is disclosed for viewing an item being towed in the rearview mirror of the towing vehicle. The swivel hitch device comprises a body component that includes a flat bar secured to the vehicle's hitch and having a through-hole. A channel is configured in a semi-circular shape with a plurality of through-holes spaced equi-distance apart. The channel is secured to a receiver tube and engages the flat bar, such that as the flat bar is swiveled side-to-side, the through-holes in the channel and the flat bar align. A removable, vertical pin is then inserted into a through-hole of the flat bar and the aligned through-hole of the channel, to secure the device in a desired position. Thus, the device essentially realigns a towed object to be off-centered, to be visible by the operator of the vehicle in any rearview mirror.
