Yes, the CURT 13271 is designed for FIAT 500X SUVs from 2016 to present. Confirm your vehicle year and model match before purchasing.
The hitch is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 3500 lbs. and tongue weight of 525 lbs. when used as a weight-carrying hitch. You must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
Non-trailer (wheel-less) loads can be applied to this hitch, but they must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty.
Required tools are: 10mm socket, 13mm socket, 21mm socket, 3/4" socket, 3" socket extension, ratchet, torque wrench, die grinder, safety glasses, and a utility knife. A fishwire is also needed for the bolt insertion technique.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance. You can call CURT Technical Support at 877-287-8634 for help.
Professional installation takes approximately 90 minutes. Novice (DIY) installation takes approximately 45 minutes. Actual time may vary depending on experience and vehicle condition.
No drilling is required. However, the rearmost hole on each frame rail must be enlarged using a die grinder to 1.125 inches in diameter to allow the carriage bolts and spacers to be inserted. This is a permanent modification to the frame rail.
Yes. In Step 3, clear away caulk as necessary near the mounting holes using a utility knife. This ensures proper fitment of the hitch to the frame.
Fishwire is used to guide the carriage bolts through the frame rail holes. In Step 4, fishwire two 1/2" carriage bolts and CM-SP10 spacers into the forwardmost holes on the outside of each frame rail. Reverse fishwire two 1/2" carriage bolts and CM-SP10 spacers into the rearmost hole on the bottom of each frame rail. Keep the wires attached until the hitch is raised into position. In Step 5, pull the fishwires through the mounting locations on the hitch to guide the bolts into place.
The hitch includes: four 1/2"-13 UNC carriage bolts, 1-3/4" long, Grade 8, zinc-plated (part 10-10272); four 0.250 x 1.00 x 2.50" square hole spacers (CM-SP10); four 1/2"-13 UNC serrated flange nuts, Grade 8, zinc-plated (part 20-00062); and four 1/2" fishwires.
Yes. In Step 1, remove the rearmost rubber plugs on the bottom of each frame rail and the forwardmost rubber plugs on the outside of each frame rail. If your vehicle has a factory tow hook, remove the M14 bolts in these locations using a 21mm socket instead, and skip to Step 3.
Yes. In Step 3, remove one plastic nut from each wheel well near the frame rail using a 10mm socket. After torquing the hitch in Step 6, reinstall these plastic nuts.
All 1/2" hardware must be torqued to 110 ft.-lbs. If your vehicle has a factory tow hook and you are reusing the factory M14 hardware, torque those bolts to 135 ft.-lbs. instead.
After pulling the fishwires through the mounting locations on the hitch and raising it into position, carefully remove the fishwires and loosely secure the hitch with hex flange nuts using a 3/4" socket. If your vehicle has a factory tow hook, loosely install the factory M14 hardware instead. Do not fully tighten until Step 6.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify a retorque interval, so inspect before each towing use.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. Read all instructions thoroughly before beginning installation. Using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce the time required.
