This Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver – Class II – 1-1/4" opening gives you 3,500 lbs of gross trailer weight and 350 lbs of tongue weight capacity. It’s built for light-duty towing jobs like small campers, boats, and utility trailers. The square-tube design delivers solid strength for everyday use while keeping the setup compact and easy to handle.
You don’t need a lift or welding gear to mount this hitch. It’s engineered as a custom fit for clean alignment with factory holes, so it bolts right on using the included hardware kit and instructions. The precision robotic welds make everything line up just right, saving time during a DIY install and ensuring dependable strength once it’s torqued down.
The fully welded steel body is finished with a gloss black powder coat layered over a protective base coat. That combination keeps rust at bay, even after years of road grime and weather exposure. The finish also gives the hitch a clean look that blends well with the rear of your vehicle instead of standing out.
Made from sturdy steel and assembled with careful attention to fit and finish, this hitch is designed for long-lasting reliability. Whether you’re hauling extra cargo on a weekend trip or connecting a small trailer for work, you can count on its solid build and steady performance for light towing and accessory use.

Great advice on putting the heat shield over the mounting flange, and calling out the dimples in the heat shield, I appreciate it Ian! Its just a shame the Forester cant pull more than 1500 lbs.

As I expected that the process of enlarging the access holes would be more tedious, I experimented an alternative way to install the rig without fishwire. It turned to be much easier for me at least. You get better access to the frame if you remove the bumper entirely. It is less complicated than it seems. There are a couple of screws that hold the plastic cover and after you remove them just snap the cover out. The next is to remove the bumper bar which is hold together by 6 big bolts 3 each side. You remove them with a regular tubular hex key dont remember the size and the bar goes out. You gain full access to the interior of the frame and if you not have big hands you can fit the hitch bolts with your bare fingers or you may still use the fishwire. Anyway, you fit the bolts through the open end of the frame bars instead of through an enlarged hole. Then is a matter of few minutes to put the bumper back. I think it is the same procedure that is employed by the dealer shop.

After a years use by my outdoors person daughter the hitch has worked great. Occasional small loads with nearly full time bike hauling has resulted in no problems at all. Would do it again good price, easy install, works as advertised...good value

Have had absolutely no problems with the hitch. Our trailer pulls so easy on it that we forget its back there sometimes. Very happy with it

The rack is working fine. Its sturdy, yet light enough take take on and off. Easy bike clamp system and the rack can be tilted down for access to the back of the car while the bikes are on it, although if you are moving large items into the back, you would probably want to take the bikes off first.

After one year the hitch is working as well today as when it was first installed. I expect it will last as long as I own the vehicle as it shows no sign of not being able to do so. Again, great service for a great product!!!

I checked with our video installation on a 2014 Subaru Forester and yes, the instructions advise to use the middle hole however we did find that using the forward hole worked better for easier installation. You can see that in the video install link below at timestamp 4:45. We didnt reinstall the heat shield however you are welcome to do so.

Still great. I did not have a need to wire up the trailer lights last year because it was just used for a bike rack. I needed to wire it up this summer and so went to the video for that, which again was great. Cars have so many hidden interior fasteners, someone needs to show installers the secret handshake to remove panels safely - and that is what your videos do. As a side note, I was discussing this with my trusty auto-parts store while buying some trailer hardware and they said: yeah, thats why we like Curt too.

After a year of use, the hitch is still a wonderful addition to my vehicle. I’m able to transport bikes and kayaks via a trailer thanks to having this hitch! Still very pleased!
