Can The Curt Class 3 Hitch C13382 Hold 300 lbs Of Tongue Weight?
Updated 10/22/2025 | Published 03/27/2025
Question:
I have a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek with a Curt 13382 Class 3 trailer hitch currently installed. I have a dirt bike and dirt bike carrier that combine would be around 300lbs on the tongue. Can this combination be suitable for the amount of tongue weight?

Hello Alejandro, thanks for reaching out. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13382 has a 525 lb tongue weight capacity, so your dirt bike and carrier would not come close to touching the max capacity for this hitch. You Subaru will also have a designated tongue weight capacity, so I suggest you check your owners manual just to be sure you are not exceeding their specified capacity.

Hey Alejandro, did you get a chance to check your Subaru’s tongue weight rating in the owner’s manual? It’d be great to know if everything lined up with the Curt hitch specs. Your update could make it easier for others hauling similar loads.
