Connect to your lifestyle with a custom hitch receiver from CURT. All of our custom hitches are designed for a vehicle-specific fit, manufactured with pride, finished for industry-leading rust resistance and tested to rigorous SAE J684 standards for safety. This class 1 trailer hitch and ball mount combination is designed for a custom fit on select years of the BMW 323, 325, 328 and 330 (see application info to verify fitment). The hitch integrates with the vehicle's frame and provides a useful and dependable 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver. The receiver is perfect for attaching the included ball mount and towing a small trailer, or for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted cargo carrier, bike rack or other accessory. This particular class 1 hitch is rated for 2,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 200 pounds tongue weight (never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). The ball mount included with this trailer hitch quickly and easily installs into the hitch receiver and has a 3/4" trailer ball hole (trailer ball not included). It can be mounted in the rise or drop position to promote level towing. Like all CURT custom hitches, this class 1 hitch is protected with our co-cured finishing process. It is descaled for a smooth surface, immersed in liquid A-coat for rust resistance inside and out, covered with a durable black powder coat and finally co-cured for an industry-leading rust, chip and UV-resistant shield. No matter where you're headed or which season of the year you’re towing in, this CURT hitch is equipped for long-lasting resilience to the elements. It features an open-back receiver for easy cleaning, and it comes with all the hardware necessary for the installation.
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 ball mount #45510, installation hardware, pin & clip

The hitch has a gross load capacity of 2000 lbs. trailer weight and 200 lbs. tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower. Check your BMW owner's manual for the specific limit.

Yes, drilling is required. You must drill four 7/16" holes in the tire well for the carriage bolts, and additional mounting holes for the remaining hardware. The reinforcement brackets are used as templates to mark the hole locations.
The kit includes: four 3/8-16 x 1 1/4" hex bolts, four 3/8-16 hex flange nuts, four 7/16-14 large hex flange nuts, four 7/16-14 x 2" carriage bolts, two .188 x 1.00 spacers (part CM-SP109), and two .375" spacer plates (part CM-SP127).
Each reinforcement bracket should fit in a body recess in the tire well with the plate centers 9 3/4" apart. The longer end of each bracket should be positioned up against the rear wall of the tire well so that the edge of the plate lines up with the body lip detail.
Four 7/16" holes must be drilled in the tire well to accommodate the carriage bolts. Use the reinforcement brackets as a template to mark the hole locations accurately.
All 7/16" hardware must be torqued to 70 lb.-ft.
All 3/8" hardware must be torqued to 45 lb.-ft.
It may be necessary to hold the lower fascia away temporarily to tighten the fasteners. Plan to have access to the area during installation.
Yes, temporarily remove all items from the car's trunk before beginning installation. This provides access to the tire well area where the reinforcement brackets must be positioned.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. Regular inspection helps maintain safe operation and prevents loosening due to vibration and use.
Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Although the hitch is rated for 2000 lbs. trailer weight and 200 lbs. tongue weight, your BMW may have a lower limit. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for the specific maximum towing capacity.
