Will Curt No-Drill Mount Bracket Mount On Round Tube Hitch

Updated 06/02/2010 | Published 05/30/2010

Question:

Can part# C57202 be mounted on a round tube hitch? I know that Draw-Tite makes a mount for round tube hitches, but I think the install would look cleaner with this part.

The Curt No-Drill Mount Bracket, Long, # C57202, will not tighten down around a round tube hitch. The bracket has a lip on it that will snug up against a square hitch and allow the hose clamp to tighten and hold the bracket in place.

The lip on the bracket will keep the hose clamp from being tightened enough around a round tube hitch to keep the bracket secure.

The bracket for the round tube hitch would be the Draw-Tite 6 and 7-Way Trailer Connector Mounting Box for Round Tube Hitches, # 18159.
