Whatever the next checkpoint is on your adventure -- whether it's getting your bike on the trail before sunrise or making it to the campground before dark -- CURT class 2 hitches let you Bring It with confidence. These receiver hitches are made to handle most light-duty towing applications and offer a custom fit for your vehicle. Typically used on full-size cars, crossovers, compact SUVs, minivans or even compact pickup trucks, a CURT class 2 trailer hitch complements the design of smaller vehicles. This particular class 2 hitch is made to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage (to verify vehicle compatibility, see application info). It offers a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 300 lbs. TW. Class 2 trailer hitches can typically be used to tow a variety of lightweight trailers, such as a small utility trailer, small fishing boat trailer or popup camper (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component). They are also perfect for adding cargo space to your vehicle with a bike rack or cargo carrier. This class 2 hitch features a 1-1/4" receiver tube to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch-mounted accessory. For safety, it is tested in accordance with SAE J684. A custom trailer hitch design requires extra care, and as such, CURT class 2 hitches are engineered using real vehicles and hands-on research. We use high-strength steel, robotic welding and rigorous testing to produce hitches that are built to fit your lifestyle. To ensure that each hitch will be a reliable extension of your vehicle, we also finish our hitches in a co-curing of liquid A-coat and black powder coat, giving them long-lasting rust and wear resistance.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Hyundai Tucson (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

The 05 - 09 Hyundai Tucson Curt 1-1/4" Class 2 Trailer Tow Hitch + 5-Flat Wiring Kit Tow Boat/Utility Trailer with Surge Brakes 12126 (Part #5W-CHW-1892) fits 2005-2009 Hyundai Tucson models. The 2009 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
The 05 - 09 Hyundai Tucson Curt 1-1/4" Class 2 Trailer Tow Hitch + 5-Flat Wiring Kit Tow Boat/Utility Trailer with Surge Brakes 12126 (Part #5W-CHW-1892) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, Curt part number 12126 is designed for Kia Sportage and Hyundai Tucson vehicles. However, the manual does not specify which model years are compatible. Contact Curt Manufacturing or your retailer to confirm fitment for your specific year and generation.
The Curt 12126 has a gross load capacity of 3500 lbs trailer weight and 300 lbs tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower. Check your vehicle's owner manual for the maximum towing limit.
The kit includes 6 hex cap screws (HHCS) M10×1.25×35 mm, class 10.9, zinc-plated (part 10-10298) and 6 conical washers 7/16 inch (part 30-00163). These fasteners secure the hitch to the existing frame weld nuts on both sides of the vehicle.
No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing weld nuts in the frame rails, so no new holes need to be created.
Two steps are required before installation: (1) Remove the exhaust hangers and lower the exhaust system for ease of installation, and (2) Remove the tow hooks and return them to the customer. The exhaust hangers must be reinstalled after the hitch is secured.
Raise the hitch into position and secure it using the 6 hex bolts (M10×1.25×35) and conical washers provided. Insert the fasteners through the hitch mounting holes and thread them into the existing weld nuts on both the driver and passenger side frame rails.
All 10 mm fasteners must be torqued to 48 lb-ft. This applies to all 6 hex bolts used to secure the hitch to the frame weld nuts.
After the hitch is secured and torqued, reinstall the exhaust hangers that were removed in the first step. This restores the exhaust system to its original position and support.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This helps maintain safe operation and prevent loosening due to vibration and use.
The Curt 12126 is designed for use with ball mount part number D-18 / 45518. Consult Curt Manufacturing or your retailer for information about other compatible ball mounts.
Yes, the Curt 12126 is designed for Kia Sportage and Hyundai Tucson. Confirm your specific model year with the retailer.
No. The hitch uses existing frame weld nuts—no drilling needed.
Remove the exhaust hangers and lower the exhaust, then remove the tow hooks. Reinstall the exhaust hangers after the hitch is secured.
Gross load capacity is 3500 lbs trailer weight and 300 lbs tongue weight. Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
Yes, Curt part number 55528 is designed for the Hyundai Tucson. The manual does not specify model year restrictions, so compatibility should be confirmed with the retailer or manufacturer if your vehicle is significantly older or newer than the manual publication date (02/18/09).
The kit includes a T-Connector with yellow and green wire ends, a black converter box, double-sided tape, cable ties, an eyelet, a screw, and a 4-flat connector. The manual does not specify quantities of cable ties or other consumables.
You will need a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the vehicle's taillight housing screws. If you do not have a suitable existing grounding point (screw with nut in the vehicle frame), you will need a drill with a 3/32" bit to create one.
Open the hatch and remove the two Phillips head screws from each taillight housing. Separate the vehicle's electrical connector from the back of the taillight housing. Repeat on both sides.
Route the T-Connector end with the yellow wire up through the opening under the driver's side taillight housing and insert it between the separated vehicle connector and the taillight housing connector.
Route the T-Connector end with the green wire along the back side of the bumper to the passenger side, then insert it between the separated connectors at the passenger side taillight housing, following the same procedure as the driver's side.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If none is available, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided in the kit.
Drilling is required only if a suitable existing grounding point (screw with nut in the vehicle frame) is not available near the connector. If you must drill, use a 3/32" bit and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
Drill a 3/32" hole for the ground wire if an existing grounding point is not available. Secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided in the kit.
Adhere the black converter box to the frame of the vehicle using the double-sided tape provided in the kit. Choose a location that is secure and does not interfere with vehicle operation.
Secure any loose parts of the T-Connector with the cable ties provided in the kit to prevent movement and potential damage during vehicle operation.
Route the 4-flat connector to the center of the vehicle and secure it in a convenient location that is out of the way and does not interfere with vehicle operation or occupants.
Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items are not hidden behind or under any surface where you plan to drill. This prevents damage to hidden components and personal injury.
Yes, the Curt 55528 is designed for the Hyundai Tucson. Confirm the specific model year with the retailer if your vehicle is significantly older or newer than the 2009 manual publication date.
