Hello Peter, thanks for reaching out. The Curt Trailer Hitch # C22RJ weighs approximately 38 lbs.

This hitch is a direct fit for the 2026 Hyundai Palisade, and it installs without and trimming or drilling. All you have to do it temporarily remove the spare tire, and lower the exhaust to get the hitch into position. Once the hitch is on everything will go back on exactly how it was without any modification.

What will you be using the hitch for?
