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 Chevy Corvette (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.
CURT offers a variety of high-quality trailer hitches and accessories for select vehicle models. Find the perfect fit for your towing needs at TowUniverse.

Yes, the CURT 11380 Class 1 Trailer Hitch, 1-1/4-Inch Receiver, Fits Select Chevrolet Corvette (Part #BKDK11380) is designed to fit the 2005-2013 Chevrolet Corvette.
The CURT 11380 Class 1 Trailer Hitch, 1-1/4-Inch Receiver, Fits Select Chevrolet Corvette (Part #BKDK11380) Drilling is required for installation. Typical installation time is 60-90 minutes. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The Curt 11380 receiver hitch is designed for Chevrolet Corvette models, but it excludes vehicles equipped with the Z51 chassis package. If your Corvette has the Z51 package, this hitch is not compatible.
The Curt 11380 is designed for use with ball mount part number D-55001 or 45501.
The manual specifies 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. Check your Corvette's owner manual for the final towing limit.
The kit includes 4 × 1/2-13 UNC grade 8 carriage bolts (1-3/4" long), 4 × 1/2-13 UNC grade 8 serrated flange nuts, 4 × 0.250 × 1.50 × 3.00" square hole spacers, and 1 × 1/2" fishwire.
Yes. Step 4 requires you to remove the 4 bolts holding the mufflers in place and let them hang loose during installation. You must reinstall the mufflers when hitch installation is finished.
Yes, drilling is required. You must enlarge the existing frame slots to allow spacers to pass through (step 1), drill a 1.5" access hole in the center of the bumper beam between the mufflers (step 3), and drill 2 × 17/32" holes in the bumper beam using the hitch as a template (step 6). These modifications are permanent.
A 1.5" diameter access hole is drilled in the center of the bumper beam between the mufflers (step 3).
Two 17/32" diameter holes are drilled in the bumper beam using the installed hitch as a template (step 6).
All 1/2" fasteners must be torqued to 110 lb-ft (step 8). Initially, fasteners are finger-tightened when the hitch is first raised into position (step 5), then final torque is applied after all fasteners are installed.
Fishwire is a technique for routing fasteners through tight spaces. Push the carriage bolt and spacer through the enlarged frame slot, then pull them back into position (step 2). Later, fishwire the remaining fasteners through the 1.5" access hole and out through the 17/32" drilled holes in the bumper beam (step 7). A 1/2" fishwire is included in the kit.
The hitch is raised into position by twisting sideways between the exhaust tips and rotating to pass between the mufflers (step 5). The mufflers must be hanging loose (removed from their mounting bolts) to allow this maneuver.
The hitch, ball mount, hitch pin, and hitch pin clip may become hot during vehicle operation. Use caution when installing or removing any ball mounts or accessories. Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Periodically check all fasteners to ensure they are tight and all structural components are sound.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This is especially important before towing.
