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 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain (to verify vehicle compatibility, see application info). It offers a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 525 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.
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 Chevy Equinox (factory tow package required; 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.

The 2018 GMC Terrain Excluding diesel Curt 1-1/4", Class 2 Trailer Tow Hitch + 4-flat Wiring Kit 12201 (Part #CHW-1684) fits the following vehicles: 2018 GMC Terrain. Always verify your specific year, make, and model before ordering.
The 2018 GMC Terrain Excluding diesel Curt 1-1/4", Class 2 Trailer Tow Hitch + 4-flat Wiring Kit 12201 (Part #CHW-1684) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, the CURT 12201 is designed for 2018-Present Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain SUVs. The manual confirms compatibility with these models and years. Verify your vehicle matches these specifications before purchasing.
The CURT 12201 is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 3,500 lbs and a tongue weight of 525 lbs when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than the hitch rating.
Non-trailer (wheel-less) loads applied to this hitch must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty. Contact CURT at www.curtmfg.com or 877-287-8634 for information on the stabilizing straps.
Required tools are: ratchet, 15 mm socket, 3/4" socket, 6" socket extension, T15 Torx bit socket, pry bar, torque wrench, rotary tool, and safety glasses. Using proper tools will greatly improve installation quality and reduce installation time.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634 for guidance on this step.
No drilling is required. The installation is described as "no drill." However, hole enlargement is required on both the driver and passenger side frame rails to allow the hardware to fit. A rotary tool is needed to enlarge the access holes.
No permanent modifications are required. The exhaust is temporarily lowered (not permanently removed or modified) and then reinstalled after hitch installation. The access holes on the frame rails are enlarged using a rotary tool, but this is a minor enlargement to accommodate the fishwire hardware.
Two people may be required to ease installation. While one person may be able to complete the installation, having a second person will make the process easier, particularly when raising the hitch into position.
The first step is to locate and remove the two Torx screws from the rear fascia. Save these screws for reinstallation after the hitch is secured.
The exhaust must be temporarily lowered to provide access to the frame rail mounting points. The exhaust is lowered by removing four bolts from the rear exhaust hanger brackets (two per side) using a 15 mm socket, and then removing the exhaust rubber isolator in front of the muffler. The exhaust is reinstalled after the hitch is secured.
Fishwire is a flexible wire tool used to route fasteners through tight or hard-to-reach spaces. In the CURT 12201 installation, you use the fishwire to thread one 1/2" carriage bolt and one spacer into each of the three mounting holes in both frame rails, accessing them through the access holes. This allows fastening without drilling.
Six 1/2" carriage bolts (part 10-10287) and six spacers (part CM-SP6) are used. These are installed through the access holes using fishwire into the three mounting holes on each frame rail (three per side). Six 1/2" hex flange nuts (part 20-00062) secure the bolts.
All 1/2" hardware (carriage bolts and hex flange nuts) must be torqued to 110 ft-lb. A torque wrench is required to achieve this specification.
After the hitch is torqued to specification, reinstall the two Torx screws that were removed from the rear fascia in step 1, and reinstall the exhaust that was lowered in steps 2-3.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This ongoing maintenance is important for safe operation.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation. When lowering the exhaust, be sure to support it to prevent it from falling. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
The installation difficulty is rated as moderate. The manual recommends reading all instructions thoroughly before beginning, and notes that using proper tools will greatly improve installation quality and reduce installation time.
Yes, the hitch includes all required hardware: six 1/2" carriage bolts (10-10287), six 1/2" hex flange nuts (20-00062), six spacers (CM-SP6), and six pieces of 1/2" fishwire (1_2 FISHWIRE). No additional fasteners are required for installation.

The Curt 56375 is a custom wiring connector that provides a 4-flat trailer connector interface for your vehicle. It connects to the vehicle's existing wiring connector located along the rear bumper and allows you to connect a trailer with proper lighting control. The connector includes relays that must be installed in the vehicle's fuse panel (positions K2 and K3) to manage signal and tail/running light circuits.
Yes, the Curt 56375 is designed for Chevrolet Equinox SUVs, Mini & Full-Sized Vans (S). The connector mounts behind the center of the rear bumper. If you have a different vehicle model or year, contact the manufacturer or consult a fitment database to confirm compatibility.
You need a flat blade screwdriver and a cutting tool. The screwdriver is used to remove the fuse panel cover, and the cutting tool may be needed during installation. The manual does not specify additional tools or whether professional installation is recommended.
The kit includes the custom wiring connector, two relays (for installation in fuse panel positions K2 and K3), a 4-flat dust cover, and cable ties for securing loose wires.
The vehicle wiring connector is located along the rear bumper, behind the center. It will be similar in appearance to the custom wiring connector included in the kit. You will separate this connector from the weather seal connector as the first step of installation.
1. Locate the vehicle wiring connector along the rear bumper. 2. Carefully separate the vehicle connector from the weather seal connector, taking care not to damage the locking tabs. 3. Insert the custom wiring connector end into the vehicle connector. 4. Ensure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. The connectors must be fully seated for proper function.
The two relays must be installed in the vehicle's fuse panel in positions K2 and K3. To access the fuse panel: 1. Open the vehicle tailgate. 2. On the driver side, locate the fuse access panel cover on the side trim. 3. Remove the fuse panel cover. 4. Install the relays in positions K2 and K3 as shown on the fuse cover. 5. Reinstall the fuse panel cover.
When in use, route the 4-flat out from the vehicle. When not in use, roll it up and store it in a convenient, out-of-the-way location. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties to prevent damage and maintain a neat appearance.
The provided 4-flat dust cover helps prevent corrosion of the connector. Install it after the custom wiring connector is fully connected to the vehicle connector. The manual does not provide specific installation details beyond this instruction.
Signal Circuits are rated at 7.5 amps per side. Tail/Running Circuits are rated at 7.5 amps total. Do not exceed these ratings or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
