Product Description

All CURT hitches feature WeatherTite construction, which prevents rusting from the inside out by sealing the main body of the hitch. The receiver tube has an open back end to allow for easy cleaning and for dirt and moisture to pass through and not get trapped as is common with other brands of hitches. All CURT hitches come with mounting hardware and installation instructions. CURT is the only hitch company in the industry that mechanically de-scales all of our hitches before applying a thick powder coat finish, which is baked on for a high-gloss, smooth surface. CURT trailer hitches are simply the most attractive, most durable and toughest hitch on the market. You won� �t find better quality and value anywhere!

CURT Manufacturing 122253 Class 2 Trailer Hitch with Old-Style Ball Mount, Pin and Clip Review

This receiver was fairly easy to install. I had to remove several exhaust hangers - you will need a jack or jack stands to let the exhaust sit on. Got the hitch up in place. But the kit did not include a fish-wire for the bolts that needed to be pulled into place from inside the frame along with some backing/reinforcing plates. I had one from a previous install. I don't think you could get them in without it. I was able to install it up in place by myself in my garage. I jacked up the car about 14". The hardest part of the install was drilling the two 1/2" holes thru the frame rail horizontally. The metal is a couple of layers thick and very hard.

Once all the bolts were in, I torqued them to 70 ft-lb as in the instructions. The only minor complaint I have is that I think the receiver tube hangs a bit too low. It could easily be made to mount 3 inches higher. One other thing, the hole in the insert was far too close to the insert end. I had another hole added 3.5" further onto the square shaft. Now the ball is closer to the bumper and the torque on the hitch from the tongue weight is reduced.
