All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
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 Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger (to verify vehicle compatibility, see application info). It offers a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 350 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 Chrysler 300 (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.

Yes, CURT 12064 is designed for 2011-present Dodge Charger, Chrysler 300C, and Chrysler 300S sedans and coupes. The installation procedure differs slightly between 2011-2014 and 2015+ models due to changes in the exhaust weldnut configuration, but the hitch fits all model years in this range.
Yes, CURT 12064 fits 2015 and newer Chrysler 300C models. The 2015+ installation differs from earlier years: 2015 models have no existing weldnuts and require fishwiring 3 carriage bolts on the passenger side instead of 2 on the passenger side and 1 on the driver side.
Yes, CURT 12064 fits both V6 and V8 models. The installation procedure differs at the muffler reattachment step: V6 models use a single nut on an exhaust clamp, while V8 models use 2 nuts with springs. Both engine types use the same hitch hardware and torque specifications.
CURT 12064 has a gross load capacity 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, which may be lower than these ratings.
Required tools are: ratchet, torque wrench, 6-inch socket extension, socket universal joint, 13mm socket, 15mm socket, 19mm socket, and 3/4-inch socket. A torque wrench is essential because fasteners must be torqued to specific values (110 lb-ft for 1/2-inch hardware and 79 lb-ft for M12 hardware).
The manual does not specify whether battery disconnection is required. Contact CURT Technical Support at 877-287-8634 for guidance on this step.
Yes, you must remove the driver side muffler to install CURT 12064. The muffler is removed in step 4 after removing exhaust isolators and the muffler attachment hardware. The muffler is reinstalled in step 9 after the hitch is secured.
Fishwiring is a technique used to route 1/2-inch carriage bolts and CM-SP40 spacers through access holes in the frame rail. The bolts are pulled through existing holes (2 on the passenger side and 1 on the driver side for 2011-2014 models; 3 on the passenger side for 2015+ models). The manual references a fishwire technique diagram but does not provide detailed written instructions; contact CURT Technical Support at 877-287-8634 if clarification is needed.
Raise the hitch by first placing the passenger side of the hitch over the passenger side muffler, then raise the driver side of the hitch. This sequence ensures proper alignment before securing with hardware.
Torque 1/2-inch hardware to 110 lb-ft and M12 hardware to 79 lb-ft. The 1/2-inch hardware includes the carriage bolts and hex flange nuts; the M12 hardware includes the supplied M12x1.75 carriage bolts with conical toothed washers that attach to existing weldnuts.
No, drilling is not required. CURT 12064 uses existing holes in the frame rail and existing weldnuts (on 2011-2014 models) or existing holes (on 2015+ models). The manual explicitly states "NO DRILLING REQUIRED."
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. Additionally, the manual recommends reading all instructions thoroughly before beginning, using proper tools, and considering having 2 people assist with installation to ease the process.
All non-trailer loads (wheel-less loads) applied to CURT 12064 must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty. The manual recommends the use of 18050 stabilizing straps for all non-trailer loads.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify a maintenance schedule or inspection interval beyond this periodic check.
CURT 12064 is designed for use with ball mount #D-20 / 45520. Euro mount options are available: #45561 (1-7/8-inch ball) and #45562 (2-inch ball).
CURT 12064 includes: 4 pieces of 1/2-inch fishwire, 3 M12x1.75x40 carriage bolts (class 10.9, zinc-plated), 3 conical toothed washers (1/2-inch), 4 serrated flange nuts (1/2-13 UNC, grade 8, zinc-plated), 4 square hole spacers (0.188 x 1.00 x 3.00 inches), and 4 carriage bolts (1/2-13 UNC, 1-3/4 inches, grade 8, zinc-plated). Note: not all hardware will be used; the quantity used depends on the model year (2011-2014 vs. 2015+).
Two people may be required to ease installation. The manual notes that using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce the time required.
You must remove: (2) exhaust isolators near the muffler on the driver and passenger side, (2) rubber isolators from the exhaust pipe, and the driver side muffler/tube. On V6 models, remove the nut from the exhaust clamp holding the driver side muffler. On V8 models, remove (2) nuts with springs attaching the driver side muffler. Save all removed fasteners for reinstallation.
On V6 models: slide the driver side muffler/tube back into position against the stud on the exhaust system and secure the clamp with the nut removed in step 3. On V8 models: reattach the driver side muffler onto the studs with the nuts and springs removed in step 3. Then raise the exhaust back into position and reattach the (2) exhaust isolators and (4) exhaust hangers.
CURT 12064 fits 2011-present Dodge Charger, Chrysler 300C, and Chrysler 300S sedans and coupes. Installation differs slightly between 2011-2014 and 2015+ models.
Ratchet, torque wrench, 6-inch socket extension, socket universal joint, 13mm, 15mm, 19mm, and 3/4-inch sockets. A torque wrench is essential for proper fastener torque (110 lb-ft for 1/2-inch hardware, 79 lb-ft for M12 hardware).
Torque 1/2-inch hardware to 110 lb-ft and M12 hardware to 79 lb-ft.
Periodically check that all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound.
Yes, the Curt 56235 is designed for all Chrysler 300 models. The harness connects to the taillight wiring behind the trunk, with separate harness ends for driver and passenger sides.
You will need: 10mm socket, ratchet, panel trim removal tool, Phillips screwdriver, and T-25 Torx bit.
Yes, you must disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning installation. This is a required safety step performed in Step 2.
Drilling may be required. If no suitable existing screw is available for the ground wire, you will need to drill a 3/32" pilot hole in the vehicle frame near the taillight connector. The area must be free of rust, dirt and paint.
Signal circuits are rated for 3.0 amps per side, and tail/running circuits are rated for 6.0 amps total. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed the product rating or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
After installation, test for proper function using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer. All steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness functions properly.
The Curt 56235 is a custom wiring harness that connects your Chrysler 300's taillight circuits to a trailer connector. It includes separate harness ends for driver and passenger sides, a converter box, a 4-flat connector for the trailer, and all necessary fasteners and cable ties for installation.
Yes, the Curt 56235 is listed for Chrysler 300 (All), meaning it is compatible with all model years of the Chrysler 300.
Yes, you must remove all trunk floor coverings as the first step. This provides access to the battery, scuff panels, and taillight wiring connectors needed for installation.
On the Chrysler 300, the battery is located on the passenger side in the trunk. You will disconnect the negative battery terminal in Step 2 of the installation.
Pull out on the bottom of the scuff panel and then pull up. Take care not to damage the alignment tabs located on the back of the panel, as these are needed for reinstallation.
The felt liner and speaker are held in place by plastic fasteners, cargo tie downs, and a Phillips screw. These must be removed to access the taillight wiring connectors.
The speaker has connectors on the back that must be separated. The trunk light is removed by pulling it through the felt liner and then separating its connectors. Take care when handling these components to avoid damage.
The taillight wiring harness connectors are located behind the felt liner in the trunk. You will pull back the felt liner to locate them. The connectors are similar in design to those on the custom wiring harness.
Separate the vehicle's taillight connectors from the housing, taking care not to damage the locking tabs. Insert the custom wiring harness end (green wire for passenger side, yellow wire for driver side) between the separated connectors. Make sure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
If no suitable existing screw is available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole in the vehicle frame near the taillight connector. The area should be free of rust, dirt and paint before securing the white ground wire with the ring terminal and provided screw.
Yes, you can use an existing screw with a nut in the vehicle frame as a grounding point if one is available near the connector. The area must be free of rust, dirt and paint. If no suitable existing screw is available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole and use the provided screw.
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle near the taillight and adhere the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape. This should be done after securing the ground wire.
Route the custom wiring harness end with the yellow wire to the driver side behind the removed scuff panels. Repeat Steps 4 through 7 on the driver side using the harness end with the yellow wire, following the same connector separation and insertion procedure as the passenger side.
The harness has a green wire end for the passenger side, a yellow wire end for the driver side, a white ground wire, and a black power wire. The green and yellow ends connect to the taillight connectors, the white wire grounds to the vehicle frame, and the black wire connects to the battery.
Route the black power wire from the vehicle battery as shown on the included CME-PCL-INS sheet. This sheet provides the specific routing path for your vehicle and should be consulted during installation.
When not in use, roll up the 4-flat connector and store it in a convenient, out-of-the-way location inside the trunk. When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle and out of the trunk.
Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties. This helps organize the installation and prevents wires from becoming caught or damaged.
Reinstall all items removed during installation, including the felt liner, speaker, trunk light, scuff panels, and trunk floor coverings. Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Exceeding this rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire. Do not exceed the product rating or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
Before drilling to create a pilot hole for the ground wire, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
Test the wiring harness for proper function using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer. All installation steps must be followed to ensure the harness functions properly. Verify that all components have been reinstalled and the battery terminal has been reconnected.
