This Curt Class II trailer hitch receiver gives you solid towing performance for small campers, boats, or utility trailers. With a 3,500-lb maximum gross trailer weight and a 350-lb maximum tongue weight, it’s built for reliable light-duty use. The 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver opening works great with ball mounts, cargo carriers, and bike racks designed for Class II hitches, letting you handle weekend gear or extra storage capacity without worry.
The hitch is made for a precise, custom fit to your vehicle’s frame, lining up cleanly with factory mounting points. It installs using a bolt-on process—no welding required—and comes with a complete hardware kit plus step-by-step instructions. Even if you’re setting up in your driveway, you’ll appreciate how straightforward the install is with standard tools.
Built from fully welded steel and finished in a gloss black powder coat over a protective base layer, this hitch resists rust and wear from daily use or rough weather. The sturdy square-tube design adds to its strength while keeping it stable under load. It’s made for years of dependable service whether you’re towing or carrying extra gear behind your vehicle.

It arrived quickly and fit correctly
thank you
I ordered wrong part - took care of it via email
shipped same day
Perfect fit - easy install
No problems or complain here on time and the exact item I ordered . Can only recommend
Appears to be of good construction, but I had to flex the mounts a TON to get it to fit on my 02 Ranger. Now that it's on, seems to be a solid fit.
Straightforward installation and perfect fit on a 96 Ford Ranger. On such an old truck I expected some fitment issues but all went well.
Well built. Simple to install.
All the products I ordered were delivered in just 4 days, nicely packed with no damage. The hitch it self looked nice with a little heat distortion on the frame mounting flanges causing the install just slightly difficult. But being an Ironworker it was off to the work truck and the problem was solved with the use of a spud wrench. Total install time under 30 minutes and it looks great.
Installed C12012 on a 1999 Ford Ranger Step side 2 door XLT with 2.5l engine. Removing the two bolts closest to the bumper proved to be the biggest challenge. But after they were removed the hitch fit perfectly. The frame already had holes in it for the two forward bolts. So, no drilling required.
Turned out I did need to order a 1-1/4 inch Curt 45028 ball mount with a 6" drop down to connect with my small trailer. The hitch is about 4" lower than the bumper ball mount location, but that was not low enough. )
My receiver was bent during the shipping process,thanks for not packaging it up properly. Who’s ever in charge of the packing department shouldn’t have this responsibility, maybe MacDonalds Hamburger might have an opening in there restaurant for that individual. I’m extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with your product so I’ll let people know on [social media] about this situation. P.S. had a (hellof) a time putting it on.

If you are having troubles with the holes not lining up, it could be that the hitch has been flexed during shipment. This is common amongst hitches, since the mounting brackets are made from a mild steel that allows the hitch to flex with the vehicle after installation. If the entire hitch was made of rigid steel, there would be a greater chance of the hitch being damaged and experiencing stress cracks. Such cracks could cause the hitch to malfunction. This flexing often times will cause the holes not to align. Because of this we do have a help article I have the link attached below that will walk you through the process of straightening the hitch.
