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 Ford Transit Connect (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
Not compatible for use with vertical hanging bicycles (bike racks that require the bicycles to be hung / mounted vertically)

Yes, Curt part number 12076 is designed specifically for the Ford Transit Connect. It is a receiver hitch with a gross load capacity of 3,500 lbs trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight. The hitch is designed for use with ballmount D-55001 or 45501.
The Curt 12076 has 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, which may be lower.
The hitch includes 4 M12×1.75 hex cap screws (HHCS), class 10.9, zinc-plated (part 10-10386) and 4 conical toothed washers, 1/2" (part 30-00149). These fasteners attach the hitch to the existing weldnuts in the vehicle frame.
You will need: a socket wrench, a torque wrench, a 19mm socket, and a screwdriver. These tools are used to remove the wire fastener, position the hitch, and torque the fasteners to specification.
No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing weldnuts in the vehicle frame for attachment. The installation notes specifically state 'NO DRILLING REQUIRED'.
Yes. The manual instructs you to lower the spare tire to ease installation, and recommends removing it from the vehicle entirely during the installation process. The spare tire is re-installed in step 7 after the hitch is secured. Refer to your vehicle manual for spare tire removal procedures.
Yes. The rearmost exhaust hanger must be lowered by twisting it 90 degrees in the frame and lowering it through the slot in the frame. This is step 1 of the installation process. The exhaust hanger is re-installed after the hitch is secured in step 7.
1. Lower the rearmost exhaust hanger by twisting 90 degrees and lowering through the frame slot. 2. Lower and remove the spare tire. 3. Pry the wire fastener from the passenger side frame rail using a screwdriver. 4. Raise the passenger side mounting plate to the inside of the frame while sliding the hitch over the exhaust, then raise the driver side. 5. Loosely secure with M12-1.75 hex bolts and 1/2" washers through existing weldnuts. Reattach the wire fastener to the passenger side mounting plate. 6. Torque all fasteners to 79 lb-ft. 7. Re-install the exhaust hanger and spare tire.
All M12 fasteners must be torqued to 79 lb-ft. This is done in step 6 after the hitch is positioned and loosely secured.
Leave the fasteners loose initially. In step 5, you loosely secure the hitch with M12-1.75 hex bolts and 1/2" washers through the existing weldnuts. Only after the hitch is fully positioned and the exhaust hanger and spare tire are re-installed do you torque all fasteners to 79 lb-ft in step 6.
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.
Before and while raising the hitch into position, ensure you do not pinch any wires or fuel lines between the hitch and the frame rails. This is a critical safety caution during step 4 of the installation.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This helps maintain the integrity and safety of the hitch.
The Curt 12076 is designed for use with ballmount D-55001 or 45501.
The manual recommends removing the spare tire to ease installation. While it may be possible to lower it instead, the instructions specifically state 'to ease installation remove spare tire from vehicle.' Removing it is the recommended approach.
