All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
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 Ford Bronco (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 350 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 4,000 lbs. WD and 400 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.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Ford Bronco without LED lights (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

Part 56471 is a powered converter lead and custom wiring harness manufactured by Curt for SUVs and vans. It converts your vehicle's taillight signals (left turn, right turn, brake, and running lights) to a 4-flat trailer connector, allowing you to tow a trailer with functioning lights. The system includes a black converter box that processes the signals and a wiring harness with yellow, green, white, and black wires that connect to your vehicle's existing taillight circuits.
Part 56471 is designed for SUVs and vans (designated 'S' category). The manual does not list specific vehicle makes, models, or years. Contact Curt Manufacturing or consult a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your exact vehicle, as installation requires access to taillight trim, tailgate, and frame-mounted points that may vary by model.
Yes. Part 56471 is designed exclusively for 12-volt negative ground systems. Do not use it on any other electrical system configuration. If you are unsure of your vehicle's electrical system, consult your vehicle owner's manual or contact the vehicle manufacturer.
You will need: a ratchet, 10mm socket, socket extension, Phillips screwdriver, small flathead screwdriver, and a panel trim removal tool. The small flathead screwdriver helps back out the push fastener screws on the taillight trim. Proper tools will improve installation quality and reduce time required.
The kit includes: a black converter box, custom wiring harness with yellow, green, white, and black wires, double-sided tape for mounting the converter, cable ties (zip ties) for securing wires, a ground screw, a ring terminal for the white ground wire, a 4-flat dust cover, and a 10-amp fuse holder with fuse. The 4-flat connector mounts near the receiver tube.
Yes. Step 1 requires you to locate the vehicle battery and disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning installation. Fasten this wire down and away from the battery while completing the installation. Reconnect the negative battery terminal only after all other steps are complete (Step 11).
1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal (Step 1). 2. Remove four bolts from taillight trim using a 10mm socket (Step 2). 3. Remove eight push fastener screws from taillight trim using a Phillips screwdriver (Step 3). 4. Remove taillight trim by pulling straight out from bottom to top (Step 4). 5. Separate taillight wiring connectors from housing (Step 5). 6. Route yellow wire and connect to driver-side taillight (Step 6). 7. Route green wire and connect to passenger-side taillight (Step 7). 8. Mount converter box using double-sided tape and secure wires with cable ties (Step 8). 9. Ground the white wire to frame (Step 9). 10. Route and mount the 4-flat connector (Step 10). 11. Reinstall all removed items and reconnect battery (Step 11).
Open the tailgate all the way and raise the glass window in the open position. Using a 10mm socket, remove the four bolts (two on each side) securing the taillight trim. Then use a Phillips screwdriver to remove eight push fastener screws (four on each side). You may need a small flathead screwdriver to help back out the push fasteners; adding pressure to the backside of the screw will help. Finally, remove the taillight trim straight out, starting at the bottom and working your way up. Repeat on the other side.
Locate the vehicle's taillight wiring connectors (they will be similar to the new custom wiring connectors). Carefully separate the connectors from the taillight housing without damaging the locking tabs. On the driver side, locate the custom wiring end with the yellow wire. Route the yellow wire behind the taillight wiring and wrap it around the rear bumper so the connectors are above the bumper and the black converter box is below. Insert the custom wiring end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors, ensuring they are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Route the wires up and behind the rear door seals. Repeat this process on the passenger side using the wire with the green wire.
Route the yellow wire (driver side) behind the taillight wiring and wrap it around the rear bumper with the connectors above the bumper and the converter box below. Route the green wire (passenger side) over the driver-side frame rail and along the bumper, then over the passenger-side frame rail. Use zip ties as needed to secure wires. Route the 4-flat connector along the rear bumper and zip tie as needed. Mount the 4-flat close to the receiver tube. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
Mount the black converter box on the top side of the frame using the provided double-sided tape. The converter should be positioned below the rear bumper (as the yellow and green wires wrap around the bumper with connectors above and the box below). Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
Drilling is optional. You must ground the white ground wire to the vehicle frame. If an existing screw or bolt is available on the frame, use that. If not, you may drill a 3/32" pilot hole. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury. The area should be free from rust, dirt, and paint; use an abrasive pad or paper to clean it.
Signal circuits (left turn and right turn): 3.0 amps per side. Tail/Running circuits: 6.0 amps total. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed the product rating or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating, and potential fire.
The taillight trim is secured by four bolts (two on each side) that are removed using a 10mm socket, and eight push fastener screws (four on each side) that are removed using a Phillips screwdriver. The manual does not specify bolt length or grade. Reuse the original fasteners when reinstalling the trim.
If you need to drill a grounding point for the white ground wire, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. The area should be free from rust, dirt, and paint; use an abrasive pad or paper to clean it. Secure the white ground wire ring terminal using the provided ground screw or an existing fastener.
Yellow wire = Left turn signal. Green wire = Right turn signal. Red wire = Brake signal. Brown wire = Tail/Running lights. White wire = Ground. Black wire = Power (connects to positive battery terminal). These colors match the 4-flat trailer connector standard.
Route the 12 GA black power wire to the vehicle battery location, taking care to avoid pinch points and hot or rotating components. Use a ring terminal to connect the black wire to the positive (+) battery terminal. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Install the fuse after all other installation steps are complete. When passing the power wire through sheet metal, use an existing grommet, add a new grommet, or use silicone to protect the wire from sharp edges.
The power wire must be 12 GA (12 gauge) or larger. It connects from the converter to the positive battery terminal using a ring terminal and is protected by a 10-amp maximum fuse.
Use a 10-amp maximum fuse. The fuse holder is included in the kit. Install the fuse after all other installation steps are complete. Do not exceed 10 amps, as exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating, and potential fire.
Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury. When routing the power wire, avoid pinch points and hot or rotating components. When passing the power wire through sheet metal, use an existing grommet, add a new grommet, or use silicone to protect it from sharp edges. Disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning installation and reconnect it only after all other steps are complete. Do not exceed the product rating or tow vehicle lamp load rating, as this can cause overheating and potential fire.
Once the custom wiring harness is installed, verify that it is functioning by attaching the 4-flat connector to any vehicle with functioning trailer lights. The taillights on the tow vehicle should function along with the taillights on the towing vehicle. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
Periodic inspection of all wires and connections should be performed to ensure there is no visible damage or loose connections. The manual does not specify inspection intervals. Install and maintain the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion of the connector.
