Connect to your lifestyle with a custom hitch receiver from CURT. All of our custom hitches are designed for a vehicle-specific fit, manufactured with pride, finished for industry-leading rust resistance and tested to rigorous SAE J684 standards for safety. This class 1 trailer hitch and ball mount combination is designed for a custom fit on select years of the Smart Fortwo (see application info to verify fitment). The hitch integrates with the vehicle's frame and provides a useful and dependable 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver. The receiver is perfect for attaching the included ball mount and towing a small trailer, or for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted cargo carrier, bike rack or other accessory. This particular class 1 hitch is rated for 2,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 200 pounds tongue weight (never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). The ball mount included with this trailer hitch quickly and easily installs into the hitch receiver and has a 3/4" trailer ball hole (trailer ball not included). It can be mounted in the rise or drop position to promote level towing. Like all CURT custom hitches, this class 1 hitch is protected with our co-cured finishing process. It is descaled for a smooth surface, immersed in liquid A-coat for rust resistance inside and out, covered with a durable black powder coat and finally co-cured for an industry-leading rust, chip and UV-resistant shield. No matter where you're headed or which season of the year you?re towing in, this CURT hitch is equipped for long-lasting resilience to the elements. It features an open-back receiver for easy cleaning, and it comes with all the hardware necessary for the installation.

Drill a 1/2" hole in the passenger side frame rail at the marked location (marked using the hitch as a template in Step 4).
The middle holes should be enlarged to 1.13" diameter using a rotary tool with a carbide bit. This allows insertion of the 7/16" carriage bolt and CM-SP11 spacer.
Yes. You must modify the rear hole in the serpentine belt cover so that the smaller 7/16" flat washer fits inside the hole. The large diameter 7/16" flat washer is then used to retain the cover and secured with a hex flange nut.
1) Remove the serpentine belt cover. 2) Remove the two existing 12mm bolts at the rear of the frame using a 14mm 12-point socket. 3) Raise the hitch into position and secure using the removed bolts. 4) Mark the position of the middle hole on the passenger side frame rail using the hitch as a template. 5) Remove the hitch and drill a 1/2" hole in the passenger side frame rail. 6) Enlarge the middle holes in both frame rails using a rotary tool with carbide bit. 7) Fishwire a 7/16" carriage bolt and CM-SP11 spacer into each forward hole. 8) Reverse pull fishwire a 7/16" carriage bolt and CM-SP11 spacer into each middle modified hole. 9) Raise the hitch over the bolts and secure with the 12mm bolts, leaving 1/2" gap, then insert CM-11020-SP spacers and tighten. 10) Position CM-SP8 spacers between the hitch mounting plate and frame rail, securing with 7/16" hex nuts. 11) Modify the serpentine belt cover and secure. 12) Torque all fasteners.

After securing the hitch with the 12mm bolts, tighten them until there is approximately 1/2" between the hitch mounting plate and the frame rail. Then insert the CM-11020-SP spacers in this gap.
The CM-11020-SP spacers should be positioned between the hitch mounting plate and frame rail on each side. When installed, the spacer should be flush with the frame rail and hitch. Tighten the bolts slowly while ensuring the spacers stay in place.
Position a CM-SP8 spacer between the hitch mounting plate and frame rail, aligning the hole in the spacer with the slot in the hitch mount plate. Secure with a 7/16" hex nut.
All 7/16" fasteners should be torqued to 70 ft-lbs.
All 12mm fasteners should be torqued to 86 lb-ft.
