Question:

Looking to get a tow hitch for my veloster turbo 2013, I want to put a dirt bike rack on the back. Will it support this weight? I believe the bike is around 200 or so pounds plus the carrier

Expert Reply:

When it comes to installing a trailer hitch on your 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4 inch # C11254 is confirmed to fit your vehicle. The hitch can tow up to 1,000 pounds and has a tongue weight up to 100 pounds, so you will not be able to haul your 200+ pound dirt bike, but you could tow the dirt bike on a trailer using The Curt Class I Drawbar - 5 inch Rise - 11-9/16 inch Long - 2,000 pounds # C45025 and attaching The 2 inch Hitch Ball - 3/4 inch Diameter x 2-1/8 inch Long Shank - Chrome - 3,500 pounds # C40018. The hitch has a gloss black powder coat finish over a protective base coat which offers superior rust resistance.

I would also recommend The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56153 which has a simple plug and play installation that plugs in behind the driver and passenger side taillights externally. It comes out as a 4 flat connector this wiring will plug into your trailer wiring and make them in unison.

I have attached an installation video below.
