Yes, CURT part number 12134 is designed for 2009-Present Dodge Journey models, including the Crossroad variant. The hitch is a Class II receiver hitch rated for a maximum of 3,500 lbs trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight. Always verify your vehicle's manufacturer towing capacity before towing, as you must never exceed it.
CURT 12134 is designed for use with the 45521 ballmount and EURO ballmounts 45571 (1 7/8" ball) and 45572 (2" ball). Verify the ballmount part number before purchase to ensure compatibility.
CURT 12134 is rated for a maximum of 3,500 lbs trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight when used as a weight carrying hitch. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. The manual does not provide capacity ratings for weight distribution hitch use.
You will need: ratchet, 3/4" socket, 6" socket extension, torque wrench, small pry bar, safety glasses, spray lubricant, and jack stands. The manual recommends using proper tools to improve installation quality and reduce installation time.
No, drilling is not required. CURT 12134 uses fishwire hardware to route carriage bolts through existing spaces between the bumper beam and frame rail, eliminating the need for drilling.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake the task on your own, CURT recommends contacting an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance. You can reach technical support at 877-287-8634.
Yes, the exhaust must be temporarily lowered. Step 1 requires removing 3 rubber isolators from each side of the exhaust. You must support the exhaust from underneath after lowering it. After the hitch is secured, the exhaust is raised back into position and the 4 rubber isolators are reinstalled. Applying lubricant or soapy water eases reinstallation.
The manual lists "lower spare tire" as an installation note, indicating the spare tire must be lowered for access during installation. However, the manual does not provide specific details on whether this is a permanent modification or temporary access step.
Follow these steps in order: (1) Lower exhaust by removing 3 rubber isolators from each side and support from underneath; (2) Fishwire carriage bolts and small square hole spacers through the space between bumper beam and frame rail on both sides; (3) Fishwire remaining carriage bolts and large spacers through the bumper beam; (4) Raise hitch into position with wedge-shaped spacers and secure with hex flange nuts (temporarily disconnect driver side electrical connector if equipped); (5) Torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft; (6) Raise exhaust and reinstall the 4 rubber isolators using lubricant or soapy water.
Fishwire is a tool used to route hardware through tight spaces without drilling. In CURT 12134 installation, fishwire is used to thread carriage bolts and square hole spacers through the space between the bumper beam and the frame rail on both sides of the vehicle. This allows the hitch to be mounted without requiring holes to be drilled in the vehicle frame.
All 1/2" fasteners must be torqued to 110 lb-ft. This includes the 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts (part 10-10287) and hex flange nuts (part 20-00062).
CURT 12134 includes: 2 large square hole spacers (CM-SP4, .250 x 1.50 x 3.00"), 4 small square hole spacers (CM-SP12, .250 x 1.00 x 2.00"), 2 wedge spacers (CM-SP38, 1/2"), 6 carriage bolts (10-10287, 1/2-13 UNC, 1-1/2" length), 6 hex flange nuts (20-00062, 1/2-13 UNC), and 2 pieces of 1/2" fishwire. The hitch itself weighs 22 lbs.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation. The vehicle must be supported on jack stands when the exhaust is lowered. You must support the exhaust from underneath after lowering it to prevent it from falling. If you are hesitant to undertake the installation yourself, contact an authorized CURT installer or call technical support at 877-287-8634.
Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. CURT 12134 is rated for 3,500 lbs trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight, but your vehicle's manufacturer may have a lower limit. Always verify your vehicle's towing capacity before towing.
All non-trailer (wheel-less) loads applied to CURT 12134 must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. These straps are required for any load that is not a trailer with wheels. For more information on stabilizing straps, see the CURT catalog or visit www.curtmfg.com.
After installation, verify that all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners remain tight and all structural components remain in good condition. This ongoing maintenance is important for safe towing.
You should periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but regular inspection before towing is recommended.
