The manual confirms CURT 13240 is designed for Hyundai Tucson. However, the manual does not specify which model years, generations, trim levels, or drivetrain configurations are compatible. Contact CURT technical support at 1-877-287-8634 or consult a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your specific Tucson.
The manual specifies a gross load capacity of 3,500 lbs. trailer weight and 525 lbs. tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower. Check your Hyundai Tucson owner's manual for the vehicle's maximum towing capacity.
Non-trailer loads can be applied to this hitch only if they are supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads with these straps will void the product warranty.
You will need: ratchet, extension, 17mm socket, torque wrench, and short #2 Phillips screwdriver.
The hitch includes 8 M10×1.25×30 hex head cap screws (HHCS) grade 10.9 with zinc plating, and 8 conical tooth washers (3/8" S-CON, zinc plated). These fasteners attach the hitch to the frame rails.
If equipped, yes. Two plastic panels are located under the bumper behind the rear tires. Remove three plastic clips from each panel using a screwdriver and pull down to dislodge. Set the panels and fasteners aside for reinstallation after hitch installation.
No. The manual explicitly states no drilling is required for this installation.
Insert the hitch over the exhaust on the passenger side. Rotate the hitch and raise it into position. Pulling down on the exhaust will ease the installation process.
Four M10×1.25×30 fasteners with four 3/8" conical tooth washers attach to each side (passenger and driver side frame rails), for a total of 8 fasteners.
The tooth portion of the conical washer must be against the hitch. This ensures proper load distribution and fastener security.
All M10 fasteners must be torqued to 40 ft-lbs.
Yes. The manual notes that weld nut cleaning may be required. Inspect the existing weld nuts on the frame rails before installation and clean them if necessary to ensure proper fastener engagement.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This helps maintain safe operation and preserve the warranty.
