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 Dodge B100, B150, B200, B250, B300, B350, B1500, B2500 and B3500 (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 6,000 lbs. GTW and 600 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 10,000 lbs. WD and 1,000 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.
Trailer hitch weight ratings are limited to vehicle manufacturer's stated capacities
Not compatible for use with vertical hanging bicycles (bike racks that require the bicycles to be hung / mounted vertically)

Yes, part number 13041 is designed for 1978–1997 Dodge full-size vans. However, it will not fit if your vehicle has a factory step bumper. Confirm your van does not have a factory step bumper before purchasing.
No. The manual explicitly states the hitch will not fit on vehicles with a factory step bumper. You will need to verify your vehicle does not have this feature before installation.
No. Part number 13041 is designed only for 1978–1997 Dodge full-size vans. It is not compatible with 1998 or newer models.
The kit includes: 5× 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts, 1-3/4" grade 8 (part 10-10272); 2× 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screws, 1-1/2" grade 8 (part 10-10334); 7× 1/2-13 UNC serrated flange nuts, grade 8 (part 20-00062); 2× 1/2" flat washers (part 30-00133); 2× 1/2" lock washers (part 30-00153); 5× 0.250 × 1.50 × 2.00" square hole spacers (part CM-SP1); and 5× 1/2" fishwire (part 1_2 FISHWIRE).
No. The manual states "NO DRILLING REQUIRED." The hitch uses existing frame rail holes and a 1 1/4" × 2" access hole in the bottom of each frame rail.
This is an existing hole in the bottom of each frame rail on your Dodge van. The installation procedure uses this hole to route the carriage bolts and spacers up through the frame and into the mounting holes. You do not need to create this hole.
Fishwire is a flexible wire included in the kit (1/2" fishwire, part 1_2 FISHWIRE). You thread the carriage bolts and spacers onto this wire, then feed the wire up through the 1 1/4" × 2" access hole in the bottom of the frame rail and down into the mounting holes. This allows you to position the bolts and spacers without having to reach inside the frame.
Only if your vehicle has a heat shield. If present, remove one screw from the bottom of the frame rail so the hitch bracket will sit flat on the bottom of the frame. This is a conditional step and applies only to vehicles equipped with a heat shield.
For 1993 and prior models, install the bumper using the existing bumper attachment hardware. No additional fasteners or modifications are required.
All 1/2" fasteners must be torqued to 110 lb-ft.
After installation, ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual recommends periodically checking the receiver hitch throughout its use to maintain these conditions.
The manual recommends periodically checking the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. It does not specify an exact interval; regular visual inspection before towing is prudent.
Yes, if it is a 1978–1997 full-size Dodge van without a factory step bumper. It will not fit vans with a factory step bumper or models from 1998 onwards.
No. The hitch uses existing frame rail holes and does not require any drilling.
Torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft.
For 1993 and prior models, the bumper is installed using existing attachment hardware and does not need to be removed. The manual does not specify bumper removal for 1994–1997 models.
