Curt Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 1996 Toyota RAV4
Updated 06/15/2018 | Published 06/14/2018 >
Question:
Hi there, thinking about getting a hitch for my 1996 Toyota Rav4 and curious if the Curt hitch #C13524 will fit 3rd gen 2005-2012 and 4th generation 2012+ Rav4s too. It says that the fit isnt confirmed and I read that as a maybe. Thanks!

For a Curt hitch that is confirmed as a fit for a 1996 Toyota RAV4 we have the part # C13524 that you referenced. The year range of RAV4s that it fits is 1996 to 2005. It would not fit newer versions of the RAV4 like what you mentioned.
I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
