All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Toyota Tacoma (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 6,000 lbs. GTW and 900 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 8,000 lbs. WD and 900 lbs. WDTW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
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 Toyota Tacoma (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 part number 13264 is designed for Toyota Tacoma models from 2016 to present. The hitch is a weight-carrying receiver hitch that mounts to the frame rails without drilling.
The CURT 13264 has two capacity ratings depending on how it is used. As a weight-carrying hitch: 6000 lbs trailer weight and 900 lbs tongue weight. As a weight-distribution hitch: 8000 lbs trailer weight and 900 lbs tongue weight. You must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, whichever is lower.
The hitch weight is 40 lbs.
You will need: a ratchet, a torque wrench, a 19mm socket, a 3/4" socket, and a 10" socket extension. Safety glasses should be worn at all times during installation.
No. The CURT 13264 requires no drilling. It uses existing vehicle weldnuts in the frame rails and existing holes in the bumper beam.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, CURT recommends contacting an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
Before you begin installation, read all instructions thoroughly. Clean the weldnuts on the frame rails to ensure proper fastener seating. Using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce the time required.
The kit includes: (2) 1/2" x 30" fishwire, (4) M12x1.25 hex cap screws (part 10-10277), (4) 1/2" conical toothed washers (part 30-00149), (2) 1/2"-13 hex flange nuts (part 20-00062), (2) 1/2"-13 carriage bolts 1-3/4" long (part 10-10272), and (2) 0.250" x 1.25" x 3.00" square hole spacers (part CM-SP19).
1. Fishwire the two 1/2" carriage bolts and two CM-SP19 spacers through the ends of the bumper beam and out the mounting holes. Push the spacer up, pull the bolt partially through the spacer, then rotate the bolt and spacer through the mounting hole. 2. Raise the hitch into position between the bumper mount plates and align the slots in the hitch with the existing vehicle weldnuts in the frame rails. 3. Install the four M12-1.25 hex bolts and four 1/2" conical toothed washers into the existing weldnuts. 4. Install the two 1/2"-13 hex flange nuts onto the carriage bolts. 5. Torque the M12 fasteners to 86 lb-ft and the 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft.
The M12-1.25 hex bolts must be torqued to 86 lb-ft.
The 1/2"-13 carriage bolts and hex flange nuts must be torqued to 110 lb-ft.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This should be done regularly to maintain safe operation.
The manual specifies a minimum clearance of 20 inches for weight carrying and 40 inches for weight distribution. These measurements appear to relate to hitch positioning but the manual does not explicitly define what these clearances measure.
Safety glasses should be worn at all times while installing this product. Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Do not exceed the hitch's gross load capacity ratings.
Yes. The CURT 13264 complies with safety specifications and requirements for connecting devices and towing systems of the state of New York, V.E.S.C. Regulation V-5 and SAE J684.

You will need: ratchet, 10mm socket, panel trim removal tool, wire stripper, wire crimper, and cutting tool.
Yes. The first step is to locate the vehicle battery on the driver side under the hood and disconnect the negative battery terminal.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum. Exceeding this rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
Drilling may be required. If a suitable existing grounding point (screw with nut in vehicle frame) is not available, you will need to drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided ground screw.
Mount the black converter box on a flat, clean surface that is out of the path of spray and debris from the rear wheels and road. Use the provided double-sided tape. Failure to mount in a protected area can cause loss of warranty, product failure, overheating and potential fire.
The kit includes a custom wiring harness with yellow, brown, red, green and white wires; a black converter box; a ground screw with ring terminal; double-sided tape for mounting the converter box; cable ties for securing loose wires; and a 4-flat dust cover. The kit also references an included CME-PCL-INS sheet for battery power wire routing instructions.
Signal circuits are rated at 3.0 amps per side. Tail and running circuits are rated at 6.0 amps total. Do not exceed these product ratings or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
The 56349 is specifically designed for Toyota Tacoma pickup trucks. The manual does not list compatibility with other models or brands. Contact the manufacturer or check the vehicle fitment database to confirm compatibility with other vehicles.
After removing the taillight and separating the vehicle taillight wiring harness connectors, insert the custom wiring harness end with yellow, brown and red wires between the separated connectors. Make sure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat on both driver and passenger sides.
The taillight is secured with 10mm screws. Use a 10mm socket and ratchet to remove them. Take care when prying the taillight out to avoid damaging the alignment tabs.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the taillight connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. If none is available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. The area must be free of rust, dirt and paint. Secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and provided screw. Before drilling, check for hidden items behind or under any surface to avoid damage or personal injury.
Route the custom wiring harness end with the green wire out through the hole between the vehicle bumper and body, to the passenger side, and up through the hole. Insert the housings into the vehicle connectors.
When not in use, roll up the 4-flat connector and store it in a convenient, out-of-the-way location. When in use, route it to the center of the vehicle. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
After installation, reinstall all items removed during installation and reconnect the negative battery terminal. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion. Test for proper function by using a test light or connecting a properly wired trailer.
If a suitable existing grounding point is not available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided ground screw. Before drilling, check for hidden items behind or under any surface to avoid damage or personal injury.
Do not exceed the product rating (signal circuits 3.0 amps per side, tail/running circuits 6.0 amps total) or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum. The converter box must be mounted in a protected area away from spray and debris; failure to do so can cause loss of warranty, product failure, overheating and potential fire. Before drilling, check for hidden items to avoid damage or personal injury.
Test for proper function by using a test light or connecting a properly wired trailer. All steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness will function properly.
