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 Pontiac Firebird and Chevy Camaro (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 2,000 lbs. GTW and 200 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.

The manual lists a gross load capacity of 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
The kit includes six 0.250 × 1.25 × 2.00" square hole spacers (CM-SP3), six 1/2-13 UNC Grade 8 serrated flange nuts (20-00062), six 1/2-13 UNC Grade 8 carriage bolts 1-3/4" long (10-10272), and one 1/2" fishwire.
You will need a 9/16" drill bit, a torque wrench capable of 110 lb-ft, and basic hand tools to lower and raise the exhaust system. A jack or lift to raise the vehicle is also required.
No, you do not need to remove the exhaust system. You must lower it by detaching it from the exhaust hanger bracket on each side to access the frame rails, then raise it back into position after installation.
Yes, drilling is required. You must drill two holes in the frame rails using a 9/16" drill bit. The hitch is used as a template to mark the center of the forward-most hole on each frame rail before drilling.
All 1/2" fasteners (carriage bolts and nuts) must be torqued to 110 lb-ft.
Non-trailer loads can be applied to this hitch only if they are fully supported by auxiliary stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This helps maintain the integrity and safety of the installation.
