• Why Does the Curt Hitch for a 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid Say Not Intended?
  Hey Abel! The Curt Hitch item # C92UR will fit the hybrid model of the 2025 Honda Civic, but there's an extra step when installing it. You have to do some trimming of the bumper area to accommodate the 1-1/4" receiver. That's why it says it isn't intended. The Curt Hitch item # C92UR is custom fit for the 2025 Honda Civic hatchback and sedan. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity and 200 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation...

• Parts Needed to Tow Utility Trailer With 2008 Mercedes-Benz E350 Wagon
  Hey Michael! We do have all of the parts you need to tow a utility trailer. For a hitch you can use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11701. Then for trailer wiring to power the lights the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236. Does the trailer have electric brakes or hydraulic surge brakes? If I had to guess it is probably hydraulic surge brakes so you won't need a 7-way or a brake controller. If it does have electric brakes you will also need...

• Recommended 1-1/4" Hitch for a 2025 Subaru Forester
  Hey George congrats on the new SUV! The Curt Hitch item # C12198 that fits the 2025 Subaru Forester is wider and is shorter in height than the Curt item # C12100 that fit your 2014. Additionally, the hardware can not be reused once it's been installed and used which means you'd need to purchase all new hardware using the Replacement Hardware Kit item # RHK. I strongly recommend purchasing the Curt Hitch item # C12198 that is custom fit for your new 2025 Subaru Forester. The new hitch will...

• Recommended Ball Mount for a 2011 Toyota Prius
  Hey Michael thanks for the question. We do indeed carry ball mounts and bike racks that will work with your 2011 Toyota Prius. It sounds like you already have a hitch but what I am going to need you to do is measure the square receiver you referenced. It will either be 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" or 2" x 2". This measurement will determine what size ball mount and bike rack you will need. I have listed both options below; 1-1/4" Receiver - etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball item # e47DR 2"...

• Recommended Wiring Harness for a 2025 Kia K5
  Hey Vincent. As of 5/8/2025 there are no plug in wiring harnesses for a 2025 Kia K5.

• Has Anyone Towed Jet Ski With Toyota Avaolon Using Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver
  Hi Aj; I can't say for sure if anyone has ever used the # 24870 to tow a jet ski with a Toyota Avalon but it may be possible depending on how much it weighs and the towing capacity of your vehicle. The hitch has a capacity of 2,000 lbs. It looks like that jet ski weighs 800-1,000 lbs. Your typical jet ski trailer probably won't weight more than 300 lbs so that keeps you well under the capacity of the hitch. The only thing left to do is to find your vehicle towing capacity and make sure...

• How to Haul a 180LB Mobility Scooter With a 2007 Honda Accord Sedan
  The only way you will be able to safely haul your 180lb mobility scooter is by putting it on Trailer # K2MMT4X6. The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24787 maxes out at 200lbs of tongue weight which your scooter and the 53lb carrier exceeds. Also the 1-1/4" to 2" Adapter # HTAD does reduce the receiver capacity by 50% so with the adapter you can only safely have 100lbs total for a hitch mounted accessory and the rack. If you choose the trailer option you will also need a 4-Way # 118302...

• Ball Mount For 2023 Buick Encore GX Towing Malone XtraLight Trailer MPG526G-S
  Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. For the ball mount, we do want to be sure the ball size and receiver size are correct, but we also want to make sure the about of drop is appropriate for your trailer. This way the trailer will be level when you tow. The trailer hitch on a 2023 Buick Encore will be about 12" from the ground. The # C45582 ball mount has 3-1/4" of drop so this will put your pall height around 8-3/4" which is honestly pretty low. Most trailers have a coupler height of...

If you will be towing you will also need a ball mount like the etrailer Ball Mount # e47DR.

• Do You Have a Tow Loop Ball Mount that Fits a 1-1/4" Receiver?
  No, I am sorry Tom we do not have a tow loop ball mount that fits a 1-1/4" receiver. The best option I can offer is a ballmount like the etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball item # e47DR. I would be reluctant to use your Mustang's hitch as a recovery point though. That hitch may not be capable of supporting the weight of your vehicle. Without knowing your year I can't say for certain but a class I 1-1/4" hitch only has a 2,000 lbs capacity.

• Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Honda Accord
  No, it wouldn't. Your 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport L has a 1,500 lbs towing capacity. You could easily stay below this with the right trailer while only hauling a 500 lbs motorcycle. Additionally, adding a hitch to your car does not void your warranty as you are covered by the Magnuson-Moss warranty act. It states that unless the part added actually causes a problem, then installation and use of the part will not void the warranty. The best hitch for your 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport...

• Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer
  I sure can Maria. I've got all the parts you need but let me start out by recommending a different hitch and telling you why I think you don't want the Curt item # C94UR for your Trailblazer. The Curt item # C94UR is a 1-1/4" hitch. That means you're going to be extremely limited on what options you have for accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. 1-1/4" accessories have lower capacities and are often time more expensive because there are less options. While you'll save money today,...

• Will The Draw-Tite Hitch DT68GR For 2021 Acura TLX Be Able To Tow A Jet Ski?
  Hello Henry, thanks for getting in touch. The Draw-Tite Class 1 Hitch # DT68GR for the 2021 Acura TLX has a towing capacity of 2,000 lbs. Most jet skis weigh like 300-900 lbs max so the hitch can easily tow a small trailer and a jet ski. As long as the combined weight of the trailer and the jet ski is less than 2,000 lbs you will be good to go. Since you plan to tow a trailer you will also need the Curt T-Connector # C45RV. Also get the etrailer Ball Mount # e47DR if you don't have one...
