Yes, CURT part number 13163 is designed for 2014-current Mitsubishi Outlander SUVs. Verify your vehicle matches this year range and model before purchasing.
When used as a weight carrying hitch, the CURT 13163 supports 4,000 lbs trailer weight and 600 lbs tongue weight. When used as a weight distribution hitch, it also supports 4,000 lbs trailer weight and 600 lbs tongue weight. You must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
The hitch weight is 30 lbs.
Two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
Required tools are: ratchet, torque wrench, socket extension, 12mm socket, 14mm socket, 17mm socket, 3/4" socket, and screwdriver. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
No, drilling is not required. The installation uses fishwire hardware and existing frame rail attachment points.
Yes. Step 1 requires removing 3 bolts and the tow loop from the driver side frame rail. The bolts and tow loop should be returned to the vehicle owner.
Yes. Step 2 requires lowering the exhaust by removing 3 rubber isolators. You must support the exhaust as needed to prevent damage. After completing the hitch installation, the exhaust is raised back into position in Step 7.
Fishwire hardware consists of carriage bolts and spacers that are threaded through existing frame rail holes without requiring drilling. The installation includes 1/2" fishwire and 7/16" fishwire. If weldnuts do not exist in the frame rails, 7/16" carriage bolts and spacers are fishwired into the frame rails as shown in the installation diagram (Step 3). On the passenger side, 1/2-13 x 4-1/2" carriage bolts are fishwired through the passenger side plate and out the frame rail (Step 5).
On the passenger side frame rail, you may need to back out the inner bumper bolt to allow the hitch to be fully raised in Step 3. If you back out this bolt, you must tighten and torque it to 25 ft-lbs in Step 5.
You may need to lower or pull down on the spare tire to allow the carriage bolts to slide through the frame rail on the driver side (Step 4).
Torque all 10mm hardware to 48 ft-lbs. Torque all 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lbs. Torque all 7/16" hardware to 59 ft-lbs. If the inner bumper bolt was backed out during installation, torque it to 25 ft-lbs.
The kit includes: 2x 7/16-14 UNC 1-1/2" grade 8 bolts (part 10-10282), 4x 1/2-13 UNC 4-1/2" grade 8 bolts (part 10-10297), 2x M10x1.25 35mm hex bolts (part 10-10298), 4x 1/2-13 UNC flange nuts (part 20-00062), 2x 7/16-14 UNC flange nuts (part 20-00103), 2x 7/16" conical toothed washers (part 30-00163), 2x 0.250 x 0.88 x 2.25" square hole spacers (part CM-SP2), 2x 1/2" fishwire, 2x 7/16" fishwire, and 2x 0.250" spacer plates (part 13163-SP).
1. Remove 3 bolts and tow loop from driver side frame rail. 2. Lower exhaust by removing 3 rubber isolators and support it. 3. Raise hitch into position, align bottom tabs with center weldnuts, and loosely secure with M10 hex bolts and 7/16" washers (back out inner bumper bolt on passenger side if needed). 4. On driver side, insert 1/2-13 x 4-1/2" carriage bolts and spacer through frame rail, secure with flange nuts (lower spare tire if needed). 5. On passenger side, fishwire 1/2-13 x 4-1/2" carriage bolts through plate and out frame rail, secure with spacer and flange nuts (torque inner bumper bolt to 25 ft-lbs if backed out). 6. Torque all 10mm hardware to 48 ft-lbs, all 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lbs, and all 7/16" hardware to 59 ft-lbs. 7. Raise exhaust back into position.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This is critical for safe towing operation.
Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Although the CURT 13163 supports 4,000 lbs trailer weight and 600 lbs tongue weight, your Mitsubishi Outlander may have a lower manufacturer-specified limit. Verify your vehicle's towing capacity in your owner's manual before towing.
Professional installation time is approximately 60 minutes. Novice (DIY) installation time is approximately 41 minutes. Actual time may vary depending on your experience level and vehicle condition.
Yes, the CURT 13163 is designed for 2014-current Mitsubishi Outlander SUVs.
The CURT 13163 supports 4,000 lbs trailer weight and 600 lbs tongue weight as both a weight carrying and weight distribution hitch. Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
No, drilling is not required. The installation uses fishwire hardware and existing frame rail attachment points.
You need a ratchet, torque wrench, socket extension, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm, and 3/4" sockets, screwdriver, and safety glasses.
Yes, you must remove the factory tow loop and 3 bolts from the driver side frame rail, and lower the exhaust by removing 3 rubber isolators. Both are restored after hitch installation.

The kit includes: one 30 amp auto-resetting circuit breaker, two #10 ring terminals, two 3/8" ring terminals, two 1/2" ring terminals, three 12-10 gauge butt connectors, 10 feet of 10 ga black/white duplex wire, 20 feet of 10 ga blue cross-linked wire, and eight 8.5" cable ties.
Yes, but with a critical difference: these vehicles require the stop signal wire to be spliced to the light green wire on the turn signal harness connector under the dash, not to the brake pedal switch. Do NOT connect to the red wire with green stripe, as serious damage may occur. All other vehicles connect to the brake pedal switch instead.
You will need: a test light, wire stripper/cutter, crimp tool, and 3/8" box end wrench. The test light is used to identify the cold (switched) side of the brake pedal switch.
Yes. The manual cautions to disconnect the tow vehicle's negative battery cable before installation. Reconnect it only in the final step after all wiring is complete.
Mount the 30 amp circuit breaker near the tow vehicle's positive battery terminal. This keeps the power wire run as short as possible and protects the circuit.
Use 10 gauge (10 ga) black wire from the duplex wire included in the kit. Strip 3/8" of insulation from each end. Crimp a #10 ring terminal to the end that attaches to the circuit breaker stud labeled 'BAT', and a 3/8" or 1/2" ring terminal (sized to fit your battery terminal) to the end that attaches to the positive battery terminal.
Feed the 10 ga duplex wire from the brake controller in the cockpit through the firewall into the engine compartment toward the battery. Cut to length as needed. At the battery end, crimp a 3/8" or 1/2" ring terminal to the white wire and a #10 ring terminal to the black wire. Attach the black wire to the circuit breaker stud labeled 'AUX' and tighten the nut with a 3/8" box end wrench.
When passing the duplex wire through the firewall into the engine compartment, use an existing grommet, add a new grommet, or fill the hole with silicone rubber to insulate and protect the wire. The same protection applies when passing the blue cross-linked wire through any sheet metal at the rear of the vehicle.
In the cockpit, attach the black duplex wire to the brake controller's battery wire (typically black) and the white duplex wire to the brake controller's ground wire (typically white). Use either one of the supplied yellow butt connectors or solder the leads together and insulate with heat shrink tubing.
Locate the brake pedal switch on the back side of the vehicle's brake pedal. Use a test light or volt meter to identify the 'cold' or switched side—this terminal will only show power when the brake pedal is depressed. Attach the stop signal wire (typically red) from the brake controller to the cold side of the switch using a wire tap.
Locate the semi-circle turn signal harness connector on the steering column under the dash. It has two rows of wires: a row of four and a row of seven. Attach the stop signal wire (typically red) from the brake controller to the light green wire using a wire tap. Do NOT connect to the red wire with green stripe, as serious damage may occur.
Feed the 10 ga blue cross-linked wire from the brake controller to the trailer connector at the rear of the vehicle, taking up any slack in the wire. When passing through any sheet metal, use an existing grommet, add a new grommet, or fill the hole with silicone rubber to protect the wire.
Attach the blue cross-linked wire to the brake controller's electric brake wire (typically blue) using one of the supplied yellow butt connectors or by soldering and insulating with heat shrink tubing. At the rear of the vehicle, trim any loose blue wire and attach it to the trailer connector's electric brake terminal. Refer to the trailer connector's wiring diagram for the correct terminal location.
Secure any loose wires with the cable ties provided. Connect the black power wire from the circuit breaker to the positive side of the battery. Connect the white ground wire from the brake controller to the negative side of the battery. Finally, reconnect the tow vehicle's negative battery cable to the battery.
The circuit breaker is 30 amps and auto-resetting. It must be mounted near the positive battery terminal and connected directly to the positive battery terminal via the included black 10 gauge wire.
Use a 3/8" box end wrench to tighten the nuts on the circuit breaker studs labeled 'BAT' and 'AUX'.
The kit includes 10 feet of 10 gauge black/white duplex wire for the battery and brake controller connections, and 20 feet of 10 gauge blue cross-linked wire for the electric brake signal to the trailer connector.
Black wire connects to the positive battery and circuit breaker. White wire connects to the brake controller ground and negative battery. Red wire is the stop signal wire from the brake controller. Blue wire is the electric brake signal wire. The manual notes these are 'typically' these colours but recommends confirming with your brake controller documentation.
Yes. You can solder the leads together and insulate with heat shrink tubing as an alternative to using the supplied yellow butt connectors. This applies to connections between the duplex wire and the brake controller wires, and between the blue cross-linked wire and the brake controller.
The black power wire must connect directly to the positive battery terminal via the 30 amp circuit breaker. Connecting to the fuse panel or any other accessory wiring may damage vehicle wiring and cause trailer brake failure. The circuit breaker protects the circuit and must be the only protection between the battery and the brake control system.
Do NOT connect the stop signal wire to the red wire with green stripe on the turn signal harness. Serious damage may occur. Connect only to the light green wire. Also, do not connect to the brake pedal switch on these vehicles; use the turn signal harness instead.
The kit is universal but requires an existing trailer connector and brake controller. 1989-1991 Ford E & F-Series with ABS use a different stop signal connection (turn signal harness instead of brake pedal switch). Consult your brake controller documentation for compatibility.
No drilling is required. The kit connects to existing components: the battery, brake controller, brake pedal switch (or turn signal harness on 1989-1991 Ford E & F-Series with ABS), and trailer connector.
Do NOT connect the stop signal wire to the red wire with green stripe on the turn signal harness—serious damage may occur. Connect to the light green wire instead, and do not use the brake pedal switch.
Connecting to the fuse panel or accessory wiring may damage vehicle wiring and cause trailer brake failure. The 30 amp circuit breaker must be the only protection between the battery and the brake control system.
The Curt 56189 fits Mitsubishi Outlander models, excluding the Sport variant. It is designed for SUVs, Mini and Full-Sized Vans (S category). If you have an Outlander Sport, this harness is not compatible. Check your vehicle's specific trim level before purchasing.
The Curt 56189 has a maximum amperage rating of 3.0 amps per side for signal circuits and 6.0 amps total for tail/running circuits. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed the product rating or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a maximum 10-amp fuse. Exceeding this rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating, and potential fire. Do not exceed the product rating or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
You will need a Phillips screwdriver, a flat blade screwdriver, and a panel trim removal tool. These are the only tools specified in the installation instructions.
The installation instructions do not specify whether the battery must be disconnected before beginning installation. Contact Curt Manufacturing or your vehicle manufacturer for this safety requirement before starting work.
Drilling may be required. Step 5 instructs you to locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame, or drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw if no existing point is available. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
The custom wiring harness end with the yellow wire is inserted between the separated taillight connectors on the driver side. The connectors must be fully inserted with locking tabs in place. This is done after removing the plastic side wall panels to access the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connectors.
The custom wiring harness end with the green wire is routed to the passenger side behind the removed scuff panels and inserted between the separated taillight connectors on the passenger side, following the same procedure as the yellow wire on the driver side (Steps 3-4).
The black converter box must be adhered using the provided double-sided tape to a flat, clean surface that is out of the path of spray and debris from the rear wheels and road. Failure to mount the box in a protected area can cause loss of warranty, product failure, overheating, and potential fire.
When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle and out of the trunk. When not in use, roll it up and store in a convenient, out-of-the-way location inside the trunk. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
Test for proper function by using a test light or connecting a properly wired trailer. All steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness will function properly. Testing confirms that the connections are secure and the harness is operating correctly.
The Curt 56189 includes a custom wiring harness with yellow and green wire ends, a black converter box, a white ground wire with ring terminal and provided screw, double-sided tape for mounting the converter box, a 4-flat dust cover, and cable ties for securing loose wires.
The ground wire is white. It is secured using the ring terminal and provided screw to a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame, or to a 3/32" pilot hole drilled in the frame if no existing point is available.
If no existing screw with nut is available in the vehicle frame, drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided ground screw. The area should be free of rust, dirt, and paint before securing the white ground wire.
You must remove the tailgate floor and cloth roll cover, the plastic floor liner, the scuff panel, and the plastic side panels (three Phillips screws per side). On the passenger side, also remove the inspection cover from the side panel. These removals provide access to the taillight wiring harness connectors.
There are three Phillips screws securing the plastic side panels on each side (driver and passenger) of the hatch. Take care not to damage the alignment tabs on the back of the scuff panel when removing it.
Yes, the Curt 56189 fits Mitsubishi Outlander models excluding the Sport variant. Verify your trim level before purchasing.
You need a Phillips screwdriver, flat blade screwdriver, and panel trim removal tool. Drilling a 3/32" pilot hole may be required for the ground wire screw.
The battery connection must use a 10-amp maximum fuse. Exceeding this rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating, and potential fire.
Drilling may be required. If no existing screw with nut is available in the vehicle frame for grounding, you must drill a 3/32" pilot hole. Check for hidden items before drilling.
The converter box is adhered using provided double-sided tape to a flat, clean, protected surface away from wheel spray and road debris. Improper mounting can cause product failure and fire.
Test using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer to verify proper function.
The 4-way flat electrical adapter converts a vehicle's 4-way flat trailer connector to other trailer connector types (6-way round, 7-way RV blade, or dual 4-way flat). This allows you to tow trailers with different connector styles. Single-output models (57184, 57183, 57185, 57626, 57676) convert to one connector type; dual-output models (57604, 57624, 57672, 57674, 57102) provide two different connector outputs simultaneously.
Yes. Your vehicle must be equipped with a 4-way flat trailer connector. If your vehicle does not have one, you will need to install a custom wiring harness or other 4-way flat trailer connector before installing this adapter.
Both convert a 4-way flat connector to a 7-way RV blade. The difference is that 57185 includes a mounting bracket, while 57184 does not.
Both convert a 4-way flat connector to a 6-way round. The difference is that 57626 includes a mounting bracket, while 57183 does not.
Curt offers three dual-output models that provide both a 4-way flat and a 7-way RV blade output: part numbers 57672, 57674, and 57102. All three include a mounting bracket.
Curt offers two dual-output models that provide both a 4-way flat and a 6-way round output: part numbers 57604 and 57624. Both include a mounting bracket.
You will need: a 1/8" drill bit, drill, Phillips screwdriver, wire stripper, cutting tool, terminal crimpers, and a test light. The manual also lists three self-tapping screws (#10 - 1/2") as required, though these are not included with the product.
No. The three self-tapping screws (#10 - 1/2") used to attach the mounting bracket are not included and must be purchased separately.
Mount the combination harness in a location on the tow vehicle that is within reach of the trailer's wiring harness and near the center of the vehicle. The mounting bracket (if included) should be attached to the vehicle's bumper or other suitable surface.
Yes. You must drill two 1/8" holes: one for the grounding point and one (or more) for the mounting bracket. Before drilling, you must check for brake lines, fuel lines, wiring and other components that may be hidden behind or under the surface to avoid damage.
No. You must never attach the mounting bracket directly to the hitch by cutting, welding or drilling into the hitch. Mount it to the vehicle's bumper or other suitable surface instead.
The adapter uses four wires: Yellow (auxiliary or back-up lights), Blue (electric brakes), Black (positive power with appropriate inline fuse), and White (ground). All wires except black and white must be connected using 12 gauge (minimum) wire and butt connectors to the appropriate vehicle functions.
The white wire is the ground connection. It must be attached with a ring terminal to a 1/8" hole drilled in a suitable grounding point on the vehicle using a #10 - 1/2" self-tapping screw. This ground connection is required for the harness to work properly. The white wire on the vehicle's 4-way flat connector does not support the ground (-) functions of the combination harness.
Yes. The black wire (positive power) must be connected with an appropriate inline fuse. The manual does not specify the fuse amperage rating.
Use 12 gauge (minimum) wire for all connections. The manual specifies this minimum gauge for the remaining wires (yellow, blue, and black) when connecting to appropriate vehicle functions.
Failing to properly ground the product can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire. The white wire must be securely attached to a clean grounding point using a #10 - 1/2" self-tapping screw in a 1/8" hole. The area must be clean of dirt, debris or undercoating.
Before drilling, you must check for brake lines, fuel lines, wiring and any other components that may be hidden behind or under the surface. Drilling into these components can cause damage and personal injury.
Do not exceed the product rating or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding either rating can cause damage or unsafe operation.
Confirm proper function with a test light or by using a properly functioning trailer. This verifies that all connections are working correctly before towing.
Secure any loose wires using cable ties or equivalent product to prevent them from moving, catching on components, or becoming damaged.
Your vehicle must have a 4-way flat trailer connector. If it does not, you will need to install a custom wiring harness or other 4-way flat connector first. Check the part number table to confirm the adapter converts to the connector type you need.
You must purchase three #10 - 1/2" self-tapping screws for the mounting bracket. You will also need an appropriate inline fuse for the black (positive power) wire; the manual does not specify the amperage.
Yes, you must drill two 1/8" holes: one for grounding and one for the mounting bracket. Before drilling, check for brake lines, fuel lines and wiring behind the surface. Never drill into the hitch.
Yellow = auxiliary/back-up lights; Blue = electric brakes; Black = positive power (needs inline fuse); White = ground (must be properly grounded or warranty is void and fire risk exists). Use 12 gauge minimum wire and butt connectors.
Proper grounding of the white wire is critical. Failing to ground it properly can cause loss of warranty, overheating and fire. The grounding point must be clean of dirt, debris and undercoating.
Test with a test light or by using a properly functioning trailer to confirm all connections work. Secure loose wires with cable ties.
