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 Hyundai Veloster (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 1,000 lbs. GTW and 100 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 11254 is designed for 2012-Current Hyundai Veloster and Veloster Turbo Hatchback models. The hitch is a weight-carrying receiver hitch with a maximum trailer weight capacity of 1,000 lbs and tongue weight capacity of 100 lbs.
The CURT 11254 is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 1,000 lbs and tongue weight of 100 lbs when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than the hitch rating.
You will need: a power drill with a 1/2" drill bit, a torque wrench, a ratchet, M10, 11/16" and 3/4" sockets, an 8" socket extension, and safety glasses. Proper tools will greatly improve the quality of installation and reduce installation time.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, CURT recommends contacting an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance. You can call technical support at 877-287-8634 for help.
Yes, drilling is required. You must enlarge the rearmost hole on the passenger side frame rail using a 1/2" drill bit. This is a permanent modification to the vehicle frame.
Fishwire is used to route 7/16" carriage bolts with CM-SP2 spacers through the access holes in the frame rails to secure the hitch. The fishwires act as guides and must be left attached to all 7/16" hardware to prevent loss of hardware inside the frame rail. Three 7/16" fishwires are included with the hitch.
The hitch includes: three 7/16"-14 UNC carriage bolts, 1-1/2" long (part 10-10282); one 1/2"-13 UNC carriage bolt, 2" long (part 10-10288); three 7/16" serrated flange nuts (part 20-00103); one 1/2" serrated flange nut (part 20-00062); three CM-SP2 spacers (.250 x .88 x 2.25"); one CM-SP6 spacer (.250 x 1.00 x 3.00"); and three 7/16" fishwires.
Torque all 7/16" hardware to 70 ft-lbs and all 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lbs. These fasteners should be tightened in step 7 of the installation after the hitch is positioned and all bolts are loosely attached.
1. Remove two M8 nuts holding the heat shield to the frame rail and bend the heat shield down slightly. 2. Remove one rubber plug from each frame rail and enlarge the rearmost hole on the passenger side using a 1/2" drill bit. 3. Fishwire a 7/16" carriage bolt with CM-SP2 spacer through the passenger side access hole into the enlarged hole. 4. Reverse fishwire 7/16" carriage bolts with CM-SP2 spacers into access holes on both sides. 5. Raise the hitch into position using the fishwires as guides, remove fishwires, and loosely attach 7/16" flange nuts. 6. Place a 1/2" carriage bolt with CM-SP6 spacer through the tow loop and secure with a 1/2" flange nut. 7. Torque all 7/16" hardware to 70 ft-lbs and all 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lbs, then reinstall the two M8 nuts.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product. The ballmount may become hot due to the center exhaust, so be cautious of heat. Electrical wiring must be kept a minimum of 12" away from exhaust tips. Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
Yes. CURT recommends the use of 18050 stabilizing straps for all non-trailer (wheel-less) loads. All non-trailer loads applied to this product must be supported by 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This ongoing inspection is critical to safe operation and is mentioned as a warranty requirement.
The CURT 11254 is designed for use with ballmount #D-55001 or #45501. Euro mount options are available: #45571 (1 7/8" ball) or #45572 (2" ball).
The rubber plugs removed from each frame rail in step 2 should be returned to the vehicle owner. They are removed to access the frame rail holes but are not reused in the hitch installation.
In step 1, remove the two M8 nuts that hold the heat shield to the frame rail and bend the heat shield down slightly. After the hitch is installed and torqued, reinstall these two M8 nuts in step 7. The hitch will be positioned between the frame rail and the heat shield.
Fasteners should be left loose during the initial positioning of the hitch. In step 5, after raising the hitch into position using the fishwires as guides, loosely attach the 7/16" flange nuts. All fasteners are fully tightened to their specified torque values only in step 7, after the 1/2" carriage bolt is secured through the tow loop.
Electrical wiring must be kept a minimum of 12" away from the exhaust tips. This is necessary because the ballmount may become hot due to the center exhaust.
