  • Curt Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness Fits for 2016 Kia Sportage
    The correct Curt 2-inch Class III hitch for the 2016 Kia Sportage is part # C13120. This also fits the 2015 model year. This Curt hitch comes complete with all required installation hardware. I have linked the written instructions as well as an install video showing a 2015 model year. The only specialized tool needed is a torque wrench like # ALL944001 which will let you tighten the fasteners to the correct torque values. If you plan to move the hitch from one vehicle to another please...

  • How to Select Correct Ball Mount to Keep Pop-Up Camper Trailer Level When Hitched
    When selecting a ball mount and 2-inch hitch ball for towing your pop-up camper you will want to choose a ball mount that allows the hitched trailer to remain level. The article I linked for you shows how to choose the right 2-inch ball mount with the correct rise or drop to keep your trailer level. Level trailers tow much better. I linked our page for 2-inch ball mounts, some of which include the hitch ball, such as Curt # C45036 which offers 2-inches of drop. If you choose a separate...

  • Ball Mount with 2-5/16 inch Hitch Ball to Fit OEM Hitch of 2022 Volvo XC90
    Your 2022 Volvo XC90's factory hitch is basically a standard 2 inch trailer hitch so for a ball mount solution that will allow you to use a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball you'd want the Curt # C45030 and then for a hitch ball the part # C40005.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2017 Toyota RAV4
    The hitch I recommend for your 2017 Toyota RAV4 is the Curt # C13149, which is a confirmed fit. This is a class III hitch with a tongue weight capacity of 525 lbs and a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs. The hitch will fit hybrid models of the RAV4 and you will not lose the ability to use the hands-free liftgate sensors. If you are going to be towing and need to add a 4-way harness you'd want Curt T-Connector # C56350. For a ball mount you are going to want the Curt # C45030, along with either...

  • Getting the Correct Parts to Tow a Trailer
    If I'm understanding you correctly the answer is yes you can. Your Explorer has a Class III trailer hitch receiver that measures 2 inches on the inside. This means it must have a Class III ball mount that fits into it to tow a trailer, like part # C45030. I've linked all of our ball mounts that'll fit to this page. On the other side the trailer has a coupler that fits onto the hitch ball. With a trailer that small it's probably a 1-7/8 inch ball. It could be a 2 inch or even a 50 millimeter...

  • Can the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount Be Used Upside Down
    If you're meaning can you use the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232 in either orientation then the answer is yes you can. You can use this ball mount right side up and get 3/4" of rise, or you can flip it upside down and get 2" of drop.

  • Factors to Consider When Picking Out Length of Ball Mount
    I would say the shorter you can go without any turning clearance issues will be the safest and best option. The length of the ball mount doesn't typically play a huge factor in ride quality or anything but we have longer ball mounts for trailers that are wider at the nose of the trailer to help get a little more clearance for turning. In theory a longer ball mount would put more leverage on the hitch in terms of tongue weight but most of the time it's not something that's really noticed...

  • Complete Towing Setup For A 2022 Ford Bronco
    Yes, for your 2022 Ford Bronco, you can use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C76WR. This hitch will bolt to your vehicles frame, has a maximum towing capacity of 3500-lbs, and a maximum tongue weight of 350-lbs. You'll want to check your vehicle owners manual for your vehicles maximum towing capacity, and compare that to the hitches maximum towing capacity, and use the lowest rating between the two. You may also want wiring so your trailer, or hitch mounted accessory has lights while...

  • Can a Ball Mount Receiver Be Flipped Upside Down To Gain Additional Height For Leveling a Trailer?
    Yes, if you are talking about using a ball mount like the Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # C45030. This type of ball mount can be used in either a rise or drop orientation to achieve the correct height to level the trailer. The 2" Hitch Ball # 63845 can simply bolt onto whichever side it needs to be on. If a ball mount can only be used in either the rise or drop position it will have that information on the ball mount. If you need help in determining if your ball mount is safe to use...

  • Are Curt and Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitches for 2020 Honda Passport Hidden Behind Bumper
    Both the Curt # C13421 and the Draw-Tite # 76290 Class III hitches for the 2020 Honda Passport will install so that the hitch crossbar is concealed behind the vehicle bumper, but the receiver tube and the safety chain hooks will be visible. When the hitch is installed, the receiver tube will sit against the underside of the bumper fascia as shown in the provided photo. The main differences between the two are the weight capacity, as well as the fact that the Draw-Tite # 76290 provides...

  • What Does Curt Trailer Hitch C13236 Look Like Installed on a 2017 Dodge Challenger
    I have included a picture showing what Curt trailer hitch # C13236 looks like installed on a 2017 Dodge Charger. I think that the hitch and its positioning match the lines of the vehicle quite well which is not normally the case with trailer hitches. But this one blends nicely. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 1" Rise, 2-1/4" Drop - 7-5/8" Long - 7,500 lbs Item # C45030. It will accept a hitch ball with a 1 inch diameter shank such as # 63845...

  • Curt Trailer Hitch Fit and Related Items Needed for 2015 Chevrolet Equinox for Towing Small Trailer
    The base version of the 2015 Chevrolet Equinox has a maximum rated towing capacity of 1500-lbs but you'll want to check your actual owner's manual to confirm the towing capacity for your particular Equinox since this can vary depending on the version and specific equipment included. You are wise to go for a 2-inch Class III hitch as these not only offer higher capacity (and safety margin) but they're also more compatible with a range of hitch-mount accessories like bike and cargo carriers....

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Needed for 2008 Chevy Express Van 3500 Cutaway
    Even though our fit guide says that the available trailer hitch receivers for a 2008 Chevrolet Express Van fit the full-size version, if your cutaway has the same frame dimensions then you should have no problems installing one of the hitch receiver options that we have listed on our site. To determine whether a hitch receiver will fit or not you will simply need to look at the dimensions for the installation bolt holes on the hitch receiver and match them up on your frame.

  • Should Trailer Be Loaded or Unloaded When Measuring For Correct Ball Mount Rise/Drop
    You can measure your trailer's coupler height with the trailer loaded or unloaded. The travel in the trailer's suspension will not have a significant impact on the trailer's coupler height. When measuring the coupler height, the trailer jack will be supporting the trailer and holding it level regardless of the trailer's load. I have attached a help article on measuring for the correct ball mount for you.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness for 2012 Toyota RAV4
    We offer both 1-1/4-inch Class II and 2-inch Class III trailer hitches for your 2012 Toyota RAV4 and I recommend using the larger 2-inch size. Class III hitches offer better compatibility with hitch-mount accessories and will often have a higher capacity. I recommend Curt Class III hitch # C13149 as long as you do not have the EV version or if you do you can use part # e98864 from etrailer. Both will install in the same way as shown in the linked video and both include the required hardware....

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Volkswagen Atlas
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C93CR you were looking at is confirmed to fit your 2021 Volkswagen Atlas as long as it is the Cross Sport model. To tow your trailer with a 2-5/16" coupler you will need a ball mount and a 2-5/16" hitch ball. To find the correct ball mount you will want to measure from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch receiver, and then from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on your trailer. The difference between these measurements is the drop...

  • Best Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Subaru Forester
    The best hitch for your 2016 Forester will depend on what you're planning on using the hitch for. If you're only needing the hitch to serve as an attachment point for the Yakima # Y02457 Ridgeback bike rack, a Class II hitch like the Draw-Tite # 36523 would be an excellent choice. However, if you might also use the hitch as an attachment point for other accessories like a large cargo carrier such as the Curt # C18151 or if you might do some light duty towing, a Class III hitch like the...

  • Ball Mount for European Bike Rack
    I have a solution but the Weigh Safe 180 Hitch 2-Ball Mount # WS54FR will not work with this because most European Bike Racks require a 50mm ball to attach to. The two included balls with Weigh Safe ball mount are not the correct size. Also, this ball mount is no longer available. You will need a 50mm Hitch Ball # # EH53C-C and a ball mount with a 1" mounting hole like the Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # C45030. This will allow you to mount your euro-style Thule VeloSpace XT3 Bike Rack...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness for 2016 Kia Sorento
    The Tekonsha Circuit Protected Tail Light w/ Converter Hardwire Kit, part # 119178KIT is indeed a fit for your 2016 Kia Sorento, but there are some plug-and play options now available that would be much easier to install. Since you don't have the factory tow package, you'd use # 118583 from Tekonsha. For a hitch, the Curt # C13195 Class III hitch has been confirmed as a fit. For a ball mount, use # C45030 and for a trailer ball, use # 63845 for a 2 inch ball or # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch...

    First, for a trailer hitch that fits your 2014 Mercedes GLK 250 BlueTec there is one option; Curt trailer hitch # C13155. And for a trailer wiring harness I recommend # C59236 since it is designed to work with 2 or 3 wire electrical systems and PWM (pulse width modulation) systems so pretty much all scenarios are covered.
