Video Transcript for Review of CURT Pintle Hitch - Pintle Mounting Plate - C48239
Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate. And this is going to slide right into your 2 and a half inch by 2 and a half inch trailer hitch receiver on your vehicle. And then it's gonna provide the mounting point for your pintle hook. Now your pintle hook is sold separately but this is gonna be compatible with lots of different options on the market. We have lots of different pintle hooks available here at etrailer.com that will work with this mounting pattern.
So you can see this is 5 inches in width and approximately 7 and a half inches tall. These mounting holes are about 5/8 of an inch in diameter and they're separated center to center horizontally about 3 and a half inches. And then vertically about 1 and 3 quarters of an inch in center to center. So that's gonna give us 3 mounting positions so that we can customize the height of our pintle to ensure that it's gonna match up to our trailer so that we have a nice level trailer as we're towing. And now this plate can only be used in the drop position like we have it here.
It cannot be used in the rise position like this so we wanna make sure that your trailer needs to have a little bit of a drop to the pintle, in order for those to work properly for you. This is going to be made of a sturdy steel construction so it's going to give us an 18,000 pound weight capacity. It's got a durable carbide black powder coat finish on it so it will hold up well for us. Our hitch pin is covered with this sticker here, but it is your standard 5/8 inch diameter pin hole there. So just your standard pin and clip will work.
They don't include the pin and clip, but you, we do have lots of options available here at etrailer.com if you don't already have one, which you probably already have. Just one of the standard 5/8 inch diameter in pins and clips there. We also have locking pins available if you wanted to add a little extra security to this. And I do wanna give you a few measurements to make sure that this is gonna work for you. So our overall length from the very front here to the back of our shank, we're looking at about 12 and a quarter of an inch.
And then from the center of our pinhole to the back part of our gusset, where it would stop against your front of your receiver tube. It's approximately 4 inches. Of course, that weld on the bottom there might vary slightly from one model to the next, but it's about 4 inches. So it should be enough clearance for you for most of your hitch receiver tubes. So if you are looking for a mounting plate for your pintle hook and that's going to fit into your 2 and a half inch trailer hitch receiver on your vehicle, this is gonna be exactly what you need. That completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

Previous customer, I purchase all the towing equipment for my sons demolition company.
etrailer is always my first stop when I am tasked with finding needed equipment.....this because the site is easy to navigate and provides excellent information relative to capacity and fitment.
Whether I am in need of electrical repair parts or hard towing components, etrailer has the right stuff at fair prices.
A really great source for all my equipment needs.

Solid and heavy built product. Lined up perfectly with the 3” down to 2.5” sleeve I previously ordered for my F250 3” receiver. Awaiting the pintle ball combo I ordered to bolt up to this plate. Thanks for the speedy service.

Fantastic product. Not one complaint.
by: Mike 06/22/2023
Very well made, heavy mounting plate. No issues, Perfect distance from bumper.
by: Allen05/26/2021
Robust! This pintle mount plate is a monster! Fitment to my 2013 Toyota 4Runner 2” hitch is great, and precisely the size I was looking for, given rear hatch access,(The rear hatch swings free and clear) and pintle hook rise requirements. I easily went from 17” to 26” off the pavement! Photos will show the additional reflective tape I applied to necessitate a safe night’s drive. Photos show the really nice locking pin that secures the mount plate. Special kudos to Jessie at etrailer customer service to expertly assist me in the selection discussion- what a joy! Delivery was ahead of schedule and the product met my specifications! Now let’s get on the road and see how she runs!

mounting plate arrived in a few days. well built and very satisfied with the quality. i purchased 2 sets for both of my trucks. has a good coat of corrosion resistance, that means a lot, you don't want your hitch rusting. i live in a salt enviroment and this will hold up. the fit and finish is top notch.
by: drew m05/04/2017
mounting plante has worked perfectly. it is the only one that i could find that was rated for the weight when mounted upright or down when using a 2" reciever. shows no signs of fatigue after a year of towing a 3500lb trailer with a 13,000lb escavator several times a week. very satisfied with purchase

See what our Experts say about this CURT Pintle Hitch
- Recommended Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch ReceiverFor the Convert-A-Ball Pintle Hook Combo with 3 Stainless Steel Balls # PH1 to fit with your 2-1/2 inch receiver, you will want a pintle mounting plate like the Titan Forged Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches # RP45294 or the Curt # C48239. I've linked the page to all your options to assist.
view full answer... - Pintle Hook Mount Plate and Hook Recommendation with 20k Capacity for 2-1/2 inch HitchFor a pintle mounting plate with a 20k capacity that is designed to fit a 2-1/2 inch hitch we have the Buyers Products part # 337PM25812 as the Curt you mentioned only has an 18k capacity. Then for a hook to bolt onto this we have the part # C48215 which has a 30k capacity.
view full answer... - Bolt Torque for Curt Lunette Ring - Flat Plate Mount - 2-1/2" Diameter - 35,000 lbsThe Curt Lunette Ring part # C48550 which is designed for a plate like the Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate part # C48239 does not come with mounting hardware. If you need this, I recommend the Curt Bolt Kit for Flat Mount Lunette Ring part # C48332. This kit comes with 5/8" Grade 8 Bolts which have a recommended torque of 159 ft. lbs. If you need a torque wrench for this, I recommend the Torque Wrench part # PT79FR.
view full answer... - Can Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate be Used Only in Drop PositionYes I can; the Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2" Hitches # C48239 can only be used in the drop position. For something that can be used with a rise (up to 4-1/2 inches) you'd need the B&W Tow & Stow Pintle Hook with 2" Ball # BWTS20055 or B&W Tow & Stow Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball # BWTS20056. Both the Curt and B&W options do need to be secured to your hitch with either Pin & Clip # C21582 or Hitch Lock # 34061072-D.
view full answer... - Does Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2 Hitches Have Hollow or Solid ShankThe Curt Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2" Hitches # C48239 has a solid shank, which helps provide for its robust 18,000 lb capacity. To secure it to your 2-1/2" hitch you will need either the Hitch Pin and Clip # 325-GH-099 or Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # FA86-00-3160.
view full answer... - Hitch Mounting Plate Compatible with Convert-A-Ball Pintle Hook ComboThe Convert-A-Ball Pintle Hook Combo with 3 Stainless Steel Balls # PH1 is not a fit for the Curt mounting plate # C48239. The holes will not align as the center will be off by 1/16 inch with the 3-5/16 inch width center on center. Instead I recommend the B&W Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2" Hitches - 16,000 lbs # BWPMHD14202, the Buyers Products 3 Position Pintle Hook Mount for 2-1/2" Receiver - 20K # 337PM25812, or the Reese Titan Forged Pintle Hook Mounting Plate for 2-1/2" Trailer...
