Features to know about

Add Everyday Utility: Class II Strength for Light-Duty Towing

This Curt Class II hitch is built for the kind of hauling most folks actually do. With a 1-1/4" receiver opening, a 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight rating, and 350 lbs tongue weight capacity, it’s ideal for towing small campers, boats, or utility trailers. The fully welded steel construction and precision, robotic welds give it solid strength and long-term stability for daily use.

Tackle Installs Without the Hassle: Bolt-On Fit with Included Hardware

This hitch is designed for an easy bolt-on installation that doesn’t require welding. Every mounting point lines up where it should, and the complete hardware kit and instructions come right in the box. It’s built to make DIY installs manageable with regular hand tools in your driveway or garage.

Keep a Clean Look Under the Bumper: Round-Tube Design with Gloss Black Finish

The round-tube design gives a smooth, finished look while keeping a straightforward hitch profile. The gloss black powder coat finish sits over a protective base coat for strong rust resistance and durability. It blends well visually, resists chips from road debris, and stays looking sharp over time.

Ready for Your Favorite Gear: Works with Drawbars, Bike Racks, and Cargo Carriers

The 1-1/4" receiver opening fits popular Class II accessories like bike racks, cargo trays, and drawbars (sold separately). That makes it easy to switch from hauling bikes one weekend to towing a small trailer the next without extra adapters or modifications.

Perfect fit for Kia Cadenza. The exact fit made installation much simpler than anticipated. Great Instructions! I also viewed a couple of installation videos which provided great tips. I installed laying on the ground, a car lift would have made the job even easier! Hitch receiver opening visible and a little bit of the crossbar, but does not protrude past the bumper. Gives it a 'beefy' look. I purchased for the sole purpose of attaching a bike carrier, easy on easy off. I should have done this long ago. Highly recommend this hitch.

I previously purchased a hitch receiver for an older vehicle and had no issues. This experience has been awful. The documentation is not adequate. The holes do not line up without removing a ton material. Unfortunately I did not figure out that I need to remove a bunch more material until after I had removed the fishing line so now I need to figure out a way to grind more material off and not lose the hardware in the frame. I do not recommend this hitch receiver.

Install instructions were great and complete. It took just over an hour to install working on my back and car not lifted at all.
