Question:

If Ive done my research correctly the #C11265 would be perfect for towing a trailer with a riding mower on it since the tow weight capability for a 2011 Toyota Corolla is 1500lbs.

Expert Reply:

The Curt Hitch part # C11265 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2011 Toyota Corolla. The capacities for this hitch are 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. As long as your trailer and lawn mower weigh less than those figures and the towing capacities of your car this hitch would work well for.

You will also need the appropriately sized trailer ball for your coupler, part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or # 19258 for a 2 inch ball. You will also need to install a trailer wiring harness, part # 55542. For a ball mount part # C45521.
