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 Buick Century or Regal, Chevy El Camino or Monte Carlo, Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera or Cutlass Supreme and Pontiac Bonneville, Grand Prix or LeMans (to verify vehicle compatibility, see application info). It offers a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 350 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.
Trailer hitch weight ratings are limited to vehicle manufacturer's stated capacities

The manual specifies a gross load capacity of 3,500 lbs. trailer weight and 350 lbs. tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
The kit includes: 2× 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts (2-1/4"), 2× 1/2" flat washers, 2× 1/2" lock washers, 3× 3/8-16 UNC hex cap screws (1-1/4"), 6× 3/8" flat washers, 2× 0.250 × 1.50 × 2.00" square hole spacers, 2× 1/2-13 UNC hex nuts, 3× 3/8-16 UNC nylon lock nuts, and 1× 1/2" fishwire.
You will need a 3/8" drill bit to enlarge the E/A bolt holes. A torque wrench is required to properly tighten the fasteners to specification (1/2" fasteners to 110 lb.-ft. and 3/8" fasteners to 45 lb.-ft.). Standard wrenches or sockets will be needed to install and tighten the bolts and nuts.
