Question:

is this hitch available with a 2inch receiver? All of my accessories are designed for the 2inch versus the 1-1/4inch and I would not like to change. Thanks,

Expert Reply:

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12173 is only available with a 1-1/4" receiver tube on your 2018 Buick Regal TourX. You can use a Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter # C45785 to allow you to still use your 2" hitch mounted accessories.

The adapter does reduce the receiver capacity by 50%, which would allow you to carry 175lbs with the Draw-Tite receiver.

I recommend using a Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 1-1/4" Trailer Hitches # RM-061-125 to remove the rattle in the adapter to the receiver on your Buick. A Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches # RM-061 can be used if your hitch mounted accessory does not have a built in anti-rattle device.

The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56389 will allow you to use Auxiliary Lights # C53201 if your hitch mounted accessory restricts the view of your taillights.
