• Recommended Parts to Tow a Small Trailer with a 2009 Buick LaCrosse
  We have everything that you need to get towing with your 2009 Buick LaCrosse. For a trailer hitch I recommend the 1-1/4" Class II Curt # C12239 because we have found the Curt trailer hitches typically have better welds and a thicker powder coat than other options. This contributes to a longer lifespan of the trailer hitch which in turn raises the quality of the hitch. Since you're needing to tow a smaller trailer you'll also need wiring to activate the trailer lights and for that I recommend...

• Trailer Hitch Receiver for Towing With a 2015 Kia Cadenza
  I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12118 on your 2015 Kia Cadenza. This hitch has a tongue weight rating of 350lbs and 3,500lb trailer rating. You will want to ensure that you do not exceed the weight ratings given by the manufacturer for your vehicle. This will not require you to change your rear shocks. If your suspension is sagging you should check that the weight on the trailer is distributed properly across the trailer and you do not have to much tongue weight. You typically...

  The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11282 is confirmed to fit your 2014 Chevrolet Cruze as long as you don't have a diesel engine. If yours is a diesel you'll need # C11371 instead.

To tow a trailer you'll also need a ball mount, hitch ball, pin and clip, and trailer wiring. To power the trailer's lights use the wiring...

• What is the Towing Capacity of a 2009 Chevy Malibu
  I checked an online copy of the owners manual for the 2009 Chevy Malibu and the vehicle is rated for 1,000 pounds. I cannot recommend towing anything heavier than that. I would take what you have been told with a grain of salt. What you should do is follow the procedures specified in the owners manual. Paddle shifters on an automatic rarely work like you would want them to. Often times they result in a hard shift or delayed shift which can negatively affect ride quality plus it is one...

• Can a Cadillac CTS-V Tow a Trailer
  I do have an option for you depending on what year your Cadillac CTS-V is but they do not offer a trailer hitch with a 2" receiver tube for this vehicle. As you mentioned, power is not an issue on the V model but other factors such as frame strength come into play when trailer manufacturers decide if they will offer a trailer hitch with a 2" receiver tube for the vehicle. Now, with that being said a 2" receiver tube is not required to tow a trailer but you will need to abide by the towing...

• Parts Needed to Tow Trailer with 2013 Dodge Avenger
  If you had a small trailer for your motorcycle you could tow it with your 2013 Dodge Avenger with the Curt hitch part # C11133 installed but if you were thinking about using a motorcycle carrier there's no safe way to do this with your Avenger. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # C56211 which installs pretty easily. Then for a ball mount part # C45522 and hitch ball # C40001.

• Trailer Hitch Receiver, Wiring Harness & Ball Mount for Towing a Trailer With a 2023 Buick Encore GX
  First you will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C94UR for your 2023 Buick Encore GX. The Curt Drawbar # C45522 will then be paired with either a 1-7/8" # C40001 or 2" # C40018 hitch ball to match the coupler. I recommend then using the Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock and Coupler Lock Set # 3794DAT to secure the ball mount to your Encore and have locks to secure the trailer to your Encore or while in storage.

• How to Determine Towing Capacity for a 2005 Cadillac STS
  The final authority will be the owner's manual of your 2005 Cadillac STS, but from the research I did it looks like the max towing weight for your vehicle would be 1,000 lbs. The Curt hitch part # C11307 has a 2,000 lb capacity, but a towing setup is only as strong as the weakest component so you would be limited to 1,000 lbs regardless of what hitch you use. For trailer wiring you would want the part # C59496, ball mount part # C45522, pin and clip part # F-4, 1-7/8 ball part # C40001,...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2001 Ford Taurus SE
  I do have a trailer hitch recommendation for you 2001 Ford Taurus, however since the two models you're referring to are two different generations the hitch you have on the 92 will not fit.

• Can the Curt Trailer Hitch C11371 be Used to Tow a Trailer with a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze
  The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11371 can absolutely be used to tow a U-Haul trailer. However, the towing capacity of your Cruze is only 1,000 lbs so the trailer cannot exceed this figure. I was able to look up a few of the U-Haul trailers and there are some under this capacity. In addition to the above trailer hitch you will also need a trailer wiring harness like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56214, a ball mount like the Curt Drawbar part # C45522, and...

• Parts Needed to Tow a Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer with a 2013 Volvo C70
  You can certainly tow the Yakima Rack n Roll trailer, # Y08106 with the new hitch on your 2013 Volvo C70. But, you will first need to consult the vehicle owners manual for the capacities of the vehicle. Then check the trailer hitch for a sticker that lists its capacities. Whichever is lower, the vehicle or the trailer, is the rating you need to go by. The Yakima trailer weighs about 100 pounds and has a 250 pound capacity so the gross trailer weight would be a mere 350 pounds loaded to...

• Recommended Way to Tow a Electric Wheelchair with a 2013 Chrysler 200 Sedan or Convertible
  The most popular hitch for a 2013 Chrysler 200 Sedan or Convertible is the Curt Class I trailer hitch # C11133. I wouldn't recommended using a cargo carrier to carry an electric wheelchair with a Class I hitch because your maximum tongue weight is 200 pounds. Based on the wheelchair carriers weighing roughly 90 pounds and electric wheelchairs around 200 pounds it will exceed the 200 pound maximum tongue weight. The best option to carry the electric wheelchair is by a trailer because...

• Will a Class II Drawbar Fit Into the Class I Curt Hitch # C11080
  Curt states that Drawbar, # C45522, is the ball mount designed for use with Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C11080.

If failure occurs when using this drawbar, Curt may void any warranty on the hitch. As for using a Class II drawbar in a Class I trailer hitch, most Class I trailer hitches have a stop built into them so a Class II drawbar can not be used. This...
