Features to know about

Add Useful Hauling Power: Class I 1-1/4" Receiver for Light-Duty Towing

This hitch is built for the kind of everyday jobs most folks actually do. With a 2,000 lbs maximum gross trailer weight and a 200 lbs tongue weight, it’s right at home pulling a small trailer, hauling a utility load, or carrying a bike rack. The 1-1/4" receiver opening gives you the right connection point for compact accessories without adding bulk or dropping too low to the ground.

Get It Done in the Driveway: Bolt-On, No-Weld Installation

You don’t need a lift or special equipment to get this hitch mounted. The bolt-on design uses factory attachment points and includes all required hardware and installation instructions. No cutting or welding means you can handle the install in your own driveway with the tools you already own.

Built to Last: Fully Welded Steel with Dual-Coat Rust Protection

The square-tube body is fully welded for strength and durability. A protective base coat topped with a gloss black powder coat keeps rust at bay and stands up to road grime and weather. It’s tough, dependable steel that holds its shape and finish over time.

Keeps a Clean Look Underneath: Compact Design with Concealed Cross Tube

You’ll only see the receiver when it’s installed—the cross tube tucks up under the bumper for a cleaner appearance. It sits tight to the frame so nothing hangs low or looks out of place, keeping your vehicle’s lines neat while still giving you full towing capability.

It went on as it should and is very stout. should do the job well.



by:

I'm very satisfied with the receiver. You can't do better.



by:

Packaged well, fits nice. Had a little trouble with one bolt, but that was due more to the old car. Would be great if they could have included tapered bolts to help installation.



by:

Great product that fit perfectly. It took longer than indicated and anticipated to handle the install, but still fit perfectly. Thank You for the prompt shipment. It was a pleasure doing business with your company and I'm sure to order any of my future needs from you. Again, Thank You!



by:

Excellent item. Not to difficult to install if you take your time. I have to do the install by my self and I'm over 60 years old. Therefore, I use a floor jack to support the hitch. Once installed it looks great and not unsightly... Thank you for making a great product.



by:

Quality is good. Installation was tight. It is recessed just a bit too much under the car and my bike rack cannot attach without modification. An extension/ball for a trailer no problem. I would chose this brand again.



by:

The trailer hitch for our 2006 Toyota Avalon arrived quickly and was of good quality. Unfortunately, the instructions that came with it were sorely lacking in detail. It said it would take an hour to put on the hitch but took 4 hours and two people to install. A more complete diagram including the underside of the car and what had to be removed in order to install the hitch would have helped. It was difficult to get at to some of the bolts that had to be removed as they were behind or above the muffler. Unless you pay someone who has installed a hitch on this car before, count on it taking quite a long time and lots of skinned knuckles. In its favor, it looks great once we finished.

Hitch C11427, Installed on 2008 Toyota Avalon, Installed 2017. Hitch Installation time in my garage 5 plus hours. Requirements: Jack up rear end of car so both rear wheels at least 1 inch of ground, Penetrating spray for rusty bolts and potentially rusty bolt holes, angle grinder to remove 2 weld nut/weld nut brackets retaining the old muffler isolator brackets you will no longer need (and are in the way for new hitch) and to smooth out the original weld, pry bar and lubricating spray to pry off muffler isolators, adjustable strap to support and lower exhaust system once you remove all the exhaust isolators, good to have some large diameter washers on hand in the event when bending the muffler shielding you pull through the existing washers.
Hitch fits great, is well constructed, sits tight up against bumper (about same height as tail pipes so shouldn't bottom out any worse than today) and sits back behind bumper about 2 inches so no issues with banging chins when walk around the car. Great Product.

  • Transporting Scooter On Back Of 2006 Toyota Avalon With 1-1/4" Receiver
    Hey Brian, I may have a solution for you, but unfortunately there are not any 2" receivers for a 2006 Toyota Avalon, as most sedans are not rated high enough to be able to handle a larger 2" cargo carrier like you are wanting. I'd double check your owner's manual, but it looks like your car has a 200lb tongue weight rating on the 1-1/4" hitch. In that case, you could install the 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hithes # C18110 you were looking at, as long as the scooter will...

  • Why Does Curt Trailer Hitch for 2008 Toyota Avalon have Higher Towing Capacity than Vehicle
    The answer to that is our manufacturers design a hitch to fit the vehicle and then do the best they can to make it as strong as possible and rate it independently from the vehicle. This is why we end up with higher rated hitches like the Curt # C11427 than vehicles they fit like your 2008 Toyota Avalon. You will need to to abide by the lowest rated component in the setup as the overall towing capacity which in your case seems to be the vehicle.

  • Will Curt Class I Hitch C11427 Work For Pulling Motorcycle Trailer With 2006 Toyota Avalon
    As long as the motorcycle trailer doesn't weigh more than 2000 lbs fully loaded and have a tongue weight greater than 200 lbs, the Curt Class I hitch, part # C11427 would work just fine for a motorcycle trailer. In order to complete your towing setup, you'll need a trailer wiring harness like # 119178KIT, a ball mount like part # C45022 and a # PC2 hitch pin and a 1-7/8 hitch ball like # A-80 or a 2 inch ball like # A-82

  • How to Transport 400 LB Wheelchair with 2011 Toyota Avalon
    The hitch receivers for the 2011 Toyota Avalon are all Class I, like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11427, which have a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. Carrying a 400 lb wheelchair would far exceed this capacity and there is an extremely good chance that it would damage the hitch as well as the points on the frame where the hitch connects. The best option I can make for you would be to install a Class I hitch and a small trailer like # K2MMT5X7 and make it work for your wheelchair.
