Question:

For the 2005 Corolla s would this receiver hitch stand up to being used to pull car out of snow? The front has a tow hook but the rear does not. Also is there possibly a 4way trailer wire harness you can order with this for very small trailers to carry a washer or dryer or other small appliance?

Expert Reply:

If you got your 2005 Toyota Corolla stuck in the snow and needed to use the Curt hitch part # C11265 as a recovery point for the tow strap you'd be fine. It wasn't designed with that in mind, but in an emergency situation it would work just fine.

For trailer wiring you'd then want the Curt harness # 55542 which is a confirmed fit. For a ball mount you'd then want the part # C45521 and hitch ball # A-80.
