However you define adventure -- whether it's climbing onto the back of a mountain bike, hunting from the top of a tree stand or camping with the family a long way from nowhere -- CURT class 1 hitches provide a light-duty towing receiver to help you Bring It. Each is made to fit a specific vehicle, providing easier installation, a better fit and optimal towing capacity. Custom class 1 trailer hitches are available for a variety of smaller vehicle types, including the compact car, crossover, minivan and small SUV. This particular class 1 hitch is designed to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Volkswagen Jetta (to verify vehicle compatibility, see the CURT application guide at curtmfg.com). Tested in accordance with SAE J684, it offers a weight carrying capacity of 2,000 lbs. GTW and 200 lbs. TW. It is equipped with 1-1/4" receiver tube opening to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch mount. This class 1 hitch also comes with all necessary mounting hardware. With its lightweight design and smaller receiver tube size, a class 1 hitch is especially useful for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier. They can also typically be used to tow small trailers such as a utility trailer, kayak trailer or teardrop camper (never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). Though CURT class 1 trailer hitches are only intended for light-duty towing, we apply the same principles of quality as we do to the rest of our rear mount hitches. Each class 1 hitch is made with hands-on engineering, high-strength steel and precise welding. We use a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat, inside and out, and durable black powder coat to provide a lasting defense against rust, chips and UV rays.
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)
Includes installation hardware

Yes, Curt part number 11070 is designed for 1999.5–2005 Volkswagen Jetta Sedans. The hitch is designed for use with Ballmount #55001 or #45501.
The hitch includes: five 3/8-16 UNC hex head cap screws (HHCS), grade 8, 1-1/4 inch (part 10-10339); five 3/8 inch flat washers (part 30-00205); five 3/8-16 UNC serrated flange nuts, grade 8 (part 20-00102); one 1/2-13 UNC handle nut, grade 8 (part 20-00174); one 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screw, grade 8, 1-1/4 inch (part 10-10470); and one 1/2 inch split-cone washer (part 30-00149).
Yes, drilling is required. The installation procedure requires you to drill four mounting holes using the hitch as a template: one hole on the driver side mounting plate, one hole on the passenger side mounting plate, and two additional holes as indicated in the installation steps. The passenger side mounting plate aligns with an existing hole in the tow hook loop bracket.
1. Lift the hitch into position, aligning the slot in the passenger side mounting plate with the existing hole in the tow hook loop bracket. Loosely install fasteners. 2. Position the hitch level and square to the vehicle. Use the hitch as a template to drill holes for the driver side mounting plate and install fasteners. 3. Use the hitch as a template to drill the hole for the passenger side mounting plate and install fasteners. 4. Torque all 1/2 inch fasteners to 110 lb.-ft. and all 3/8 inch fasteners to 45 lb.-ft.
Torque all 1/2 inch fasteners to 110 lb.-ft. and all 3/8 inch fasteners to 45 lb.-ft. This applies to the hex head cap screws and nuts used to secure the hitch to the vehicle.
All non-trailer loads applied to the hitch must be supported by auxiliary stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty. The manual does not specify a weight limit for non-trailer loads; contact Curt Technical Support at 1-877-287-8634 for guidance on safe non-trailer load handling.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify an exact interval; regular inspection before towing is recommended.
