Video Transcript for Trailer Hitch Installation - 2010 Toyota Camry

Today we are going to be working on a 2010 Toyota Camry. We are going to be installing Curt hitch part number 12343. Here are a couple of measurements for your new hitch. From the center of the hitch pin hole to the outermost point of your bumper is 2 inches. From the top of the receiver tube to the ground is 12 inches. Now let us go ahead and start our installation. 0:26

Before we can begin installation, there are a couple of brackets that we are going to have to remove. We have a bumper structure bracket that will have to be removed. This will be removed and not put back on the vehicle as the hitch will take its place. Then we are also going to lower our exhaust by removing these three mounting bolts. So before I do that, I want to go ahead and support my exhaust so that it cannot fall too far. Let us go do the exhaust hanger on the passenger side. We are going to use a 1/2 inch nylon tube brush, part number 814092, to clean the threads out thoroughly before installing your new hardware. Take one of your new bolts. Make sure it is going to thread in smoothly for ease of installation of your new hitch. Now I am going to go over and clean out the hole on the passenger side the same way. 1:29

We are ready to go ahead and install our new hitch. Until I get all of my new bolts in place, I am just going to go finger tight in case we need to move the hitch around a little bit. We are using bolts and conical tooth washers that are provided in the installation kit. The teeth on the conical tooth washer will face the hitch when installing. That completes the driver side. Now I am going to go ahead and tighten up the passenger side. You will notice that I put one of the side bolts in first. This will give me the opportunity then to get my exhaust hanger in position. Line up my bolt holes. OK, now that I have all of my fasteners installed, I am just going to go through and run them down. Now I am going to go repeat the same process on the passenger side. Now that we have everything run down, we can go ahead and torque all of our fasteners to specifications. That completes torquing to specification on the driver side. Now I am going to go repeat the same process on the passenger side. We can go ahead and remove our precautionary hanger. And that completes the installation of Curt hitch part number 12343 on a 2010 Toyota Camry.

Havent' installed yet, but product arrived well packed, tightly wrapped, with all hardware required and clear, printed instructions on installation. I purchased this unit from this company because of the excellent on-line installation video, the information (which let me select a unit 7 pounds lighter than the others but with a higher tow rating), and the ease of use of the website. They shipped within 24 hours and the hitch arrived in 3 days, with free shipping. Product is in excellent shape, very well painted, and ready to install. All parts and fasteners are present. I will definitely use this company again if I need their products.6569

Shipping was very fast. Product was easy to install and mounted up to strong part of the car's body where the factory had placed weld nuts. The hitch is attractive beneath the bumper and I gave it a coat of wax!26623

TWO MAN JOB! Hitch went on just as described, but definitely NOT a one man job. Prior to purchase I was having a hard time finding info anywhere online about installation on '07 Camry with DUAL EXHAUST. Bought hitch anyway, and can verify that it DOES WORK with dual exhaust setup. Exhaust system was well enough supported that we did not need to use additional support after removing bolts. Be sure hitch brackets are sandwiched BETWEEN frame and exhaust brackets when installing. Excellent design of hitch ensures there is minimum clearance between bottom of bumper and top of hitch, so you get maximum road clearance. Have not pulled anything with it yet, but design looks really SOLID with four bolts in each the two brackets. 20713

Took longer to install. The hitch quality is wonderful. But the wires for the lights had to be run along the inside of the car to the battery. We assumed that would not have been the manner of hook up.3710

Install of the #12343 Hitch When I ordered the hitch I was unsure of the product and the stated install time, some companies will say anything to "sell the product". I received the hitch a lot sooner than I expected and the install went extremely smooth and I easily installed it under the time given. I have been a metal worker/welder most of my working life and the hitch is well built and looks good, I couldn't be happier. I am sick of Chinese junk, I buy American made when I can and I love the "made in the USA" label. Good job guys! Jerry S.3528

  • Is A 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Available For A 2009 Toyota Camry
  • On the 2009 Toyota Camry, all of the hitches available are Class II 1-1/4 inch hitch openings. The hitches will have a 3,500 lb. Gross Towing Weight and a 300 lb. or 350 lb. Tongue Weight. There is not a 2 inch hitch available for your vehicle, because a 2 inch hitch has to be rated as a Class III and a Class IV hitch. That means that the vehicle would have to be able to tow weights ranging from 3,500 lbs. to 12,000 lbs. The frame on your Toyota Camry would not be able to handle towing those

  • Recommend a Trailer Hitch To Carry Bike Rack on My 2011 Toyota Camry Hybrid
  • The CURT Trailer Hitch, # 12343, will fit a 2011 Toyota Camry Hybrid. The CURT Hitch # 12343 is a Class II 1-1/4 inch receiver and includes a drawbar, pin and clip. The strap in question is the CURT Bike Rack Strap with Cambuckle, # 18050. CURT warranty requires, all non-trailer loads including such things as bike racks and cargo carriers, use a support strap. To maintain the warranty on the hitch, the strap will need to be used. Since you will only be using the hitch for a bike rack, I w

  • Can You Tow A Motorcycle With Curt Class II 1-1/4 Inch Hitch # 12343 On A 2011 Toyota Camry LE
  • The Curt Class II 1-1/4 Inch Hitch, part # 12343, will fit the 2011 Toyota Camry LE. It has a towing weight capacity of 3,500 lbs. and a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs. The towing weight capacity on the hitch is sufficient enough to tow your 550 lbs. motorcycle, but you will want to check your owners manual to make sure the towing weight capacity of your vehicle is able to tow the motorcycle. I am including a link to the installation instructions on the Curt hitch. This is the list of t

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2008 Toyota Camry SE V6
  • Yes, we do have a hitch that will fit your 2008 Toyota Camry SE V6, but the item you selected, Curt Trailer Hitch, part # 12343, will not fit the SE model of the Camry. I would recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 36416, which is a Class II 1-1/4 Inch Hitch. To complete your towing setup you may be interested in the following: Draw-Tite Ball Mount, part # 36071 1-7/8 Inch Hitch Ball, part # 19256 2 Inch Hitch Ball, part # 19258 Pin and Clip, part # PC2 T-One Vehicle Wir

  • Bicycle Hitch Needed for a 2011 Lexus ES350 and Bike Rack Recommendation
  • At this time the only hitch we have available for the 2011 Lexus ES350, is the Curt Class II Receiver Hitch, item # 12343. Minor trimming of the underbody trim panel is required, but will not be visible once the hitch is installed unless viewed from the underside of the vehicle. If you need a bike rack, I would recommend the Swagman XTC-2, item # S64670. This platform style rack makes loading and unloading the bikes simple and the ratcheting hooks make securing the bikes to the rack quick and

  • Can a 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Mount Accessory be Used on a 1-1/4 Inch Hitch on a 2011 Toyota Camry
  • It is possible to use your 2 inch accessories in a class II, 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch. You would have to use a hitch expander, 1-1/4 to 2 inch. However, the use of an expander will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by 50 percent. It appears that the vast majority of trailer hitches for a 2011 Toyota Camry have a tongue weight capacity of 300 pounds. When using an expander, like # 80303, that capacity will be cut down to 150 pounds. This means that the weight of any acces

  • Platform Style 4 Bike Rack Availablility for a 2006 Toyota Camry
  • We do have a 4-bike platform rack that will work in a Class II hitch on your Toyota Camry, but the Swagman XTC4, item # S64665, is not compatible with 1-1/4 inch hitches. The SportRack Super EZ Platform-Style 4 Bike Carrier, item # A30902LR, would work well with the CURT Class II Trailer Hitch, # 12343, on your Camry. I have linked instructions for installation of the # 12343 hitch for you to review. There is some under body panel trimming required for the install, but it is otherwise pret

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2010 Toyota Camry SE V-6
  • Since you have a 2010 Toyota Camry SE model, you can use either the Draw-Tite Hitch, # 36416, or the Hidden hitch # 90152. For either of these hitches, you will not have to trim the rear fascia of the vehicle. I have included a link to the installation details for you. Both hitches share the same instructions. I have also included a link to a video showing a typical installation. The main difference between the two is that the Hidden Hitch comes with a ball mount, pin and clip. For a ball, us
