Part number 13131 fits 2013-present Ford Escape models, excluding the S model. Confirm your vehicle year and trim level before purchasing. If you have an S model Escape, this hitch is not compatible.
When used as a weight-carrying hitch, the CURT 13131 supports a maximum trailer weight of 3,500 lbs and tongue weight of 525 lbs. When used as a weight-distribution hitch, it supports 5,000 lbs trailer weight and 525 lbs tongue weight. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
The hitch weight is 45 lbs.
Required tools are: die grinder, ratchet, socket set, 3/4" boxed end wrench, and torque wrench. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
The kit includes: four 0.250 x 1.00 x 2.50" square hole spacers (CM-SP10), four 1/2-13 UNC 1-1/2" grade 8 bolts (10-10287), four 1/2-13 UNC grade 8 serrated flange nuts (20-00062), and four pieces of 1/2" fishwire (1_2 FISHWIRE).
Two people may be required to raise the hitch into position under the vehicle. While one person may be able to complete the installation, having a second person available is recommended to ease the process.
The manual does not specify whether battery disconnection is required. Contact CURT Technical Support at 877-287-8634 for clarification on this step.
Yes. The access holes for the square hole spacers must be enlarged using a die grinder. This is the first installation step and is required on both sides of the vehicle frame.
Fishwiring is a technique used to route the 1/2" bolts and spacers through the vehicle frame to the side plate mounting points before the hitch is positioned. The 1/2" fishwire included in the kit is used to guide the bolts and spacers into place. This allows the hitch to be secured without having to access the frame mounting points directly from underneath.
All 1/2" fasteners must be torqued to 110 ft-lbs. Use a torque wrench to achieve this specification.
1. Enlarge access holes for square hole spacers with a die grinder. 2. Fishwire 1/2" bolts and spacers into the vehicle frame at the two side plate mounting points on each side. 3. Place the hitch underneath the vehicle and route fishwire through the side plate mounting holes. Use two people if needed to raise the hitch into position. Remove fishwire and loosely secure mounting hardware. 4. Tighten fasteners on the passenger side using a 3/4" boxed end wrench (limited access). Tighten fasteners on the driver side using a 3/4" socket. 5. Torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 ft-lbs. 6. Installation is complete.
The passenger side plate has limited access to secure fasteners, so a 3/4" boxed end wrench must be used to tighten the hardware on that side. The driver side plate can be accessed more easily and can be secured using a 3/4" socket, which is faster and more convenient.
No. After positioning the hitch and routing the fishwire through the side plate mounting holes, fasteners should be loosely secured to hold the hitch in position. Full tightening to the 110 ft-lbs specification occurs in step 4, after the hitch is properly aligned.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify the exact interval for these checks; contact CURT Technical Support at 877-287-8634 for recommended maintenance intervals.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. Additionally, never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity when using the hitch.
If you are hesitant to undertake the installation yourself, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance. You can also call CURT Technical Support at 877-287-8634 for installation questions or visit www.curtmfg.com for more information.
