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 GMC Acadia (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 5,000 lbs. GTW and 750 lbs. TW. 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.
CURT custom wiring connectors are the easiest way to outfit your vehicle with a CURT trailer wiring connection. They are built with some of the most advanced technology in the industry, and each one is custom-fitted to work with a specific make and model. Some automotive manufacturers install a special socket on the vehicle to be used for vehicle-to-trailer wiring. Although this special socket is not equipped on every vehicle, a CURT custom wiring connector -- also called a T-connector -- utilizes the socket for simple, stress-free installation. Rather than requiring you to cut, splice and solder into your vehicle's wiring system, the custom wiring connector uses a single OEM-compatible plug and instantly provides a standard, universal vehicle-to-trailer wiring connection, typically in the form a 4-way flat. All CURT custom wiring connectors are made vehicle-specific for the easiest possible installation and the best fit. This particular plug-in connector provides a 4-way flat socket and is designed to be a custom wiring option for certain years of the Buick Envision, Chevy Blazer, GMC Acadia, Cadillac XT5 and Cadillac XT6, (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary hardware to establish a solid connection. It also comes with a dust cover to keep the connector socket clean when not in use. To ensure long-lasting reliability, all CURT custom wiring connectors are thoroughly tested for optimal functionality. Stress is the last thing you should feel when towing a trailer -- whether you're hauling your RV to that favorite camping destination, your ATVs up to the hunting grounds or your fishing boat to the new hidden hotspot. At CURT, we think your towing equipment should add to the enjoyment of your experience, not detract from it.

No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing frame holes and access holes. Trimming of the exhaust heat shield is required.
Required tools are: torque wrench, ratchet, 15mm socket, 11/16" socket, 8" socket extension, pliers (needle nose for speed nuts), utility knife, aviation shears, and safety glasses. A 15mm socket may also help with removing rearmost exhaust brackets to ease lowering the exhaust.
The kit includes 6 carriage bolts (7/16-14 UNC, 1-1/4", Grade 8), 6 serrated flange nuts (7/16-14 UNC, Grade 8), 6 square hole spacers (0.250 x 0.88 x 2.25"), and 6 pieces of 7/16" fishwire.
Two people may be required to ease installation. The manual recommends reading all instructions thoroughly before beginning and notes that using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce the time required.
Professional installation time is approximately 37 minutes. Novice (DIY) installation time is approximately 40 minutes. Actual time may vary depending on your experience level and familiarity with the vehicle.
The first step is to lower the exhaust by removing 3 rubber isolators as shown in the Rubber Isolator Removal Diagram. The manual notes that removing the rearmost exhaust brackets from the vehicle frame using a 15mm socket may ease lowering the exhaust.
Yes, heat shield trimming is required. Remove 4 speed nuts on each side using needle nose pliers, then trim the heat shield using aviation shears as shown in the trim diagram. The manual notes that all dimensions are approximate and you should confirm fit prior to trimming. After trimming, reinstall the heat shields.
The heat shield should be trimmed approximately 4.00" (typical) and 12.00" (typical) as shown in the Heat Shield Diagram. All dimensions are approximate; confirm fit prior to trimming.
Fishwire 3 CM-SP2 spacers and 3 7/16" carriage bolts through the access holes and out the mounting holes on each frame rail. This technique allows you to guide the fasteners through the frame without drilling. The fishwire is used to pull the bolts and spacers through the access holes to the mounting holes on both the driver and passenger side frame rails.
After fishwiring the spacers and bolts, use pliers to remove 2 heat shield vehicle studs on each side. Raise the hitch into position and secure it with 6 7/16" flange nuts (3 on each side). The manual notes to scrape away excess caulk using a utility knife for proper installation.
Torque all 7/16" hardware to 59 ft-lbs using an 11/16" socket.
Use an 11/16" socket to torque all 7/16" hardware to 59 ft-lbs.
You have two options: either remove the Lower Panel Hitch Door and return it to the vehicle owner, or trim it as shown in the diagram (approximately 3" wide by 1.5" up). The choice depends on your preference and the vehicle owner's needs.
Yes. After torquing all 7/16" hardware to 59 ft-lbs, raise the exhaust back into position and reinstall the rubber isolators that were removed in Step 1.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance. Read all instructions thoroughly before beginning installation.
