All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Mitsubishi Outlander (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 4,000 lbs. GTW and 400 lbs. TW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
CURT custom wiring connectors are the easiest way to outfit your vehicle with a CURT trailer wiring connection. They are built with some of the most advanced technology in the industry, and each one is custom-fitted to work with a specific make and model. Some automotive manufacturers install a special socket on the vehicle to be used for vehicle-to-trailer wiring. Although this special socket is not equipped on every vehicle, a CURT custom wiring connector -- also called a T-connector -- utilizes the socket for simple, stress-free installation. Rather than requiring you to cut, splice and solder into your vehicle's wiring system, the custom wiring connector uses a single OEM-compatible plug and instantly provides a standard, universal vehicle-to-trailer wiring connection, typically in the form a 4-way flat. All CURT custom wiring connectors are made vehicle-specific for the easiest possible installation and the best fit. This particular plug-in connector provides a 4-way flat socket and is designed to be a custom wiring option for certain years of the Mitsubishi Outlander (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary hardware to establish a solid connection. It also comes with a dust cover to keep the connector socket clean when not in use. To ensure long-lasting reliability, all CURT custom wiring connectors are thoroughly tested for optimal functionality. Stress is the last thing you should feel when towing a trailer -- whether you're hauling your RV to that favorite camping destination, your ATVs up to the hunting grounds or your fishing boat to the new hidden hotspot. At CURT, we think your towing equipment should add to the enjoyment of your experience, not detract from it.

No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing factory weldnuts on the frame rails for fastening.
The exhaust must be lowered before installation. Step 1 requires removing the rearmost three exhaust hangers to lower the exhaust. After the hitch is installed and fastened, the exhaust is raised back into position and all three hangers are re-attached.
The kit includes: 6 × 3/8" S-CON washers (part 30-00148), 1 × 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolt 1-3/4" grade 8 (part 10-10272), 1 × 1/2-13 UNC serrated flange nut grade 8 (part 20-00062), 1 × 0.250 × 1.50 × 2.00" square hole spacer (part CM-SP1), and 6 × M10 × 1.25 × 30 mm class 10.9 hex head cap screws (part 10-10271).
The manual does not specify which tools are required. Contact Curt technical support at 1-877-187-8634 for a complete tool list. At minimum, you will need wrenches or sockets to fit 1/2" and M10 fasteners, and a torque wrench to achieve the specified torque values.
1. Lower the exhaust by removing the rearmost three exhaust hangers. 2. Raise the hitch into position with a strap to the passenger side of the tow loop. 3. Insert the 1/2-13 carriage bolt through spacer CM-SP1, the tow loop, and the hitch; fasten finger tight with the 1/2" flange nut. 4. Install all M10 hardware with 3/8" conical washers through the hitch and into the frame. 5. Torque all 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lb and all M10 hardware to 48 ft-lb. 6.

No. The manual states: 'ALL NON-TRAILER LOADS APPLIED TO THIS PRODUCT MUST BE SUPPORTED BY AUXILIARY STABILIZING STRAPS.' Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty.
Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. The manual emphasizes this with a warning: 'DO NOT EXCEED VEHICLE MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDED TOWING CAPACITY.' Consult your Mitsubishi Outlander owner's manual for the specific limit.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify a maintenance interval, so perform these checks regularly, especially before towing.

Yes, Curt part 56102 is designed for the Mitsubishi Outlander. The manual does not specify which model years are supported, so contact Curt technical support at 1-877-287-8634 to confirm your vehicle's year and trim level are compatible.
The kit includes a power harness with connector and 10 amp fuse, an OEM-style harness connector for the rear, a black converter box, a white ground wire with ring terminal and screw, double-sided tape, and cable ties. The manual does not list all individual fastener counts or specifications.
You must remove the rear hatch and tailgate, the three screws holding the rear scuff panel, the cargo area cover, the foam cargo tray, the passenger-side storage tray, the jack storage door, the cargo loop, and the rear trim panel. These removals provide access to the vehicle's trailer wiring harness connector and the frame for mounting the converter box.
The connector is located in the engine compartment on the driver's side, below the headlight. It will be similar in appearance to the power harness connector you are installing.
Route the power harness from the vehicle's trailer harness power wire connector (in the engine compartment, driver's side below the headlight) to the battery positive (+) terminal, avoiding any areas that may cut or pinch the wire. Connect the ring terminal to the positive battery terminal and insert the 10 amp fuse into the fuse holder.
Under the removed passenger-side storage tray in the cargo area, you will find the vehicle's trailer wiring harness connector. This connector mates with the OEM-style harness connector included in the kit.
Locate the vehicle's trailer wiring harness connector under the removed passenger-side storage tray in the cargo area. Insert the OEM-style harness connector from the kit into the vehicle's connector, ensuring both connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
Drilling is not required. The manual states you may drill a 3/32" hole to create a new ground point if a suitable existing screw with nut is not available in the vehicle's frame. Before drilling, you must verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under surfaces will not be damaged.
If drilling a new ground point is necessary, drill a 3/32" hole in the vehicle's frame. Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under surfaces will not be damaged or cause personal injury.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If no suitable point exists, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and screw provided. Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under surfaces will not be damaged.
Adhere the black converter box to the frame of the vehicle using the double-sided tape provided. The manual does not specify the exact location, so position it securely in an accessible area near the connector.
Route the 4-flat behind the rear trim panel to the back of the vehicle, under the removed scuff panel, to the center of the vehicle and out into the rear cargo area. When in use, route the 4-flat out of the hatch. When not in use, roll it up and store it in a convenient out-of-the-way location in the rear cargo area.
Secure any loose parts of the wiring harness with the cable ties provided in the kit.
Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface will not be damaged and that no personal injury will result. This is especially important when drilling the 3/32" ground hole in the vehicle's frame.
Route the power harness from the vehicle's trailer harness power wire connector to the battery positive terminal, avoiding any areas that may cut or pinch the wire. This prevents electrical shorts and fire hazards.
