This hitch opens up what your vehicle can do. With a 4,000-lb maximum gross trailer weight and 600-lb maximum tongue weight, it’s set up for light trailers, cargo carriers, or a couple of bikes on the back. Using weight distribution, those limits rise to 5,000 lbs GTW and 600 lbs TW, giving you more stability when hauling. The standard 2" x 2" receiver works with the most common ball mounts, racks, and carriers, so the accessories you already have will fit right in.
You can tell this hitch was made to last. The sturdy square-tube design and precision robotic welds maximize strength while keeping everything aligned perfectly during install. Each mount is protected by a gloss black powder coat over a corrosion-resistant base coat, so it stands up to rust and road grime season after season. It’s not just strong—it keeps that clean look under the bumper even after years of use.
Installing the Curt #C13282 doesn’t require anything fancy. It bolts directly to the frame using existing mounting points—no drilling or welding needed. The complete hardware kit and clear instructions come in the box, so you can handle it in your garage or driveway with standard tools. The design gives a solid fitment without complicated modifications, making it one of those installs you can actually enjoy doing yourself.

A year later and still looking great. The coating is holding up well even with Michigan winters. Continue to be impressed.

It still is sitting in my garage. I need to find someone to install it. Sorry!

Now I have the hitch receiver and a bike rack from this company for about a year, it’s been working like new. I only used it to move my college student in and out of the dorm, very light usage. It’s there when I need it, but doesn’t bother me at all once the bike rack is removed. I know there are many ways to use the receiver, but the needs haven’t come yet. Overall it’s a great investment!

We recommend trimming that fascia so that it fits around the trailer hitch receiver. If you check out the installation instructions linked on this product page you will be able to see the where the cut out should be.

after a year... a reliable solution for my Lexus RX 400 Hybrid Sport, for which the Manufacturer did not offer a solution. Imagine that... a Sport model auto that does not offer a hitch!

One year later and the hitch is doing fine. I have received several positive comments on how nice the hitch looks. Have actively used the hitch this past year. Definitely a good purchase.

It is possible that the hitch was flexed which caused it to not fit properly. I have linked an article below that can help advise how to correct flexed hitches.
