Equip your vehicle for towing and hitch-mounted accessories with a dependable CURT 2" trailer hitch. Designed for a vehicle-specific fit, CURT receiver hitches provide a strong and secure connection point for towing trailers, carrying bikes, transporting cargo and using other compatible 2-inch hitch accessories.
Our selection of CURT 2-inch receiver hitches includes options for trucks, SUVs, crossovers, vans and passenger vehicles. Each hitch is engineered to match specific vehicle mounting points, helping provide a clean installation and dependable performance. Depending on the vehicle application, available options may include Class 3, Class 4 and heavy-duty receiver hitches with different gross trailer weight and tongue weight capacities.
A 2" x 2" receiver opening is one of the most common hitch sizes and works with a wide range of towing accessories, including ball mounts, bike racks, cargo carriers, hitch steps and tow hooks. When towing a trailer, you may also need a properly rated trailer ball, hitch pin, wiring harness, brake controller or weight distribution system.
CURT trailer hitches feature a durable black finish designed to help protect against rust, scratches and exposure to road conditions. Many models install using existing holes in the vehicle frame, although drilling, trimming or temporary removal of vehicle components may be required for certain applications.
Use our vehicle fitment tools to find the correct CURT 2" trailer hitch for your year, make and model. Always compare the hitch rating with your vehicle’s towing capacity and the ratings of every component in your towing setup. The maximum towing capacity is determined by the lowest-rated component.
Shop CURT 2-inch trailer hitches at TowUniverse for vehicle-specific fitment, trusted towing performance and access to the accessories needed to complete your towing setup.

Yes, the BXH3008 is designed for 2019-2023 Jeep Cherokee. However, if the rear of your vehicle looks different than shown in the manual, contact Blue Ox at (402) 385-3051 before proceeding with installation.
Yes, the BXH3008 is compatible with Trailhawk models. Trailhawk installation requires an additional step: using a 21MM socket, remove two bolts from the frame on both sides of the vehicle before installing the hitch.
The BXH3008 has a maximum gross trailer weight (GTW) of 5000 lb (2268 kg) and maximum tongue weight (TW) of 750 lb (340 kg). However, you must verify your vehicle's towing capacity in your vehicle owner's manual and use whichever is less. Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's towing capacity.
Required tools are: torque wrench, ratchet, 5" socket extension, 10" socket extension, 10MM socket, 13MM socket, 15MM socket, 21MM socket, and 3/4" socket.
The BXH3008 includes: one 2" receiver hitch (61-8765), six 1/4" x 1" x 3" plates with square holes (101-10556), six 1/2"-13 x 1-1/2" carriage bolts Grade 8 YZP (201-1176), six 1/2"-13 hex nuts Grade 8 YZP (202-0268), six 1/2" conical washers YZP (203-0218), six 1/2" x 48" bolt leaders (229-0955), and four 8" nylon cable ties (290-0275).
No. The installation instructions state that no trimming or drilling is required. The exhaust is lowered and reinstalled for the receiver hitch installation.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Contact Blue Ox at (402) 385-3051 for clarification on this step.
No. The installation requires the exhaust to be lowered and removed. In step 1, two bolts are removed from the exhaust bracket on both sides using a 13MM socket with 5" extension. In step 2, the exhaust clamp nut is loosened with a 15MM socket, and the exhaust is pushed toward the front and removed. The exhaust is reinstalled in step 10.
Blue Ox recommends that towing products be installed by Blue Ox Dealers who are familiar with the products and have the equipment and knowledge necessary for fit work. Blue Ox Dealers can be found at www.blueox.com or by contacting (402) 385-3051. Installation must be performed by someone aware of the risks and hazards involved with adding components to the vehicle chassis.
Yes. The exhaust must be fully supported using jack(s) or stand(s) during removal and reinstallation. The exhaust continues to be supported by a jack or stand until the exhaust brackets are reinstalled in step 12.
The installation sequence is: (1) support and remove exhaust, (2) remove frame bolts on Trailhawk models, (3) unfasten wire loom clips if present, (4-7) install lead wires and spacer plates through frame holes on both sides, (8) clean excess caulk, (9) trim lead wires and raise hitch into place, (10) reinstall exhaust, (11) install conical washers and hex nuts on all bolts, (12) reinstall exhaust brackets and tighten all bolts to 119 ft/lbs.
In step 9, trim the lead wires down to roughly 10" before raising the receiver hitch into place.
The teeth of the conical washers must be towards the hitch. This applies when installing washers in steps 9 and 11. Be careful not to push bolts into the frame when installing washers and nuts.
All bolts must be tightened to 119 ft/lbs. This applies to the 1/2"-13 carriage bolts used to attach the hitch. The manual provides a torque chart for other bolt sizes (Grade 5, Grade 8, metric Grade 8.8, and Grade 10.9) for reference.
The BXH3008 uses Grade 8 bolts. The carriage bolts (201-1176) and hex nuts (202-0268) are Grade 8 with yellow zinc plating (YZP). If a bolt is lost or needs replacement, use a replacement bolt of the same grade (Grade 8) for safety and proper hitch function.
Before each towing trip, inspect all towing equipment for cracked welds, missing or worn parts, and loose bolts. Tighten all bolts to the recommended torque specification of 119 ft/lbs. Verify that all electrical connections are plugged in and accessories are functioning properly. Ensure the gross weight of your trailer does not exceed the hitch weight rating or your vehicle's towing capacity, whichever is less.
If the receiver hitch is in an accident, it must be replaced. Do not use it again, as an accident can cause unseen damage that could result in more damage or serious injury. Do not use the hitch if it is damaged or missing parts.
No. Do not alter this product in any way. Modifying the product could change its integrity and lead to loss of connection between the towed item and the tow vehicle, resulting in property damage, loss of the towed item, personal injury, or death.
After installation, verify that all electrical connections are plugged in and accessories are functioning properly. Ensure all bolts are tightened to 119 ft/lbs. Complete a visual inspection of the hitch before towing. Check that the hitch is properly seated and that no wires or hoses are pinched or damaged.
Check that all bolted connections are at the correct torque specification (119 ft/lbs) on a regular basis. Complete a visual inspection before towing each time. It is the owner's responsibility to inspect all towing equipment for cracked welds, missing or worn parts, and loose bolts before each towing trip.
Yes. Use a good quality paint to spray cut edges of the frame to prevent rusting. This is part of the post-installation maintenance to protect the vehicle frame.
Yes. Ensure that your product is registered online at www.blueox.com. Registration is crucial so that you may be alerted of product offerings, updates, upgrades, maintenance and safety bulletins, and/or recalls.
