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 Mazda 3 (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 Curt 11383 has 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.

Yes, the Curt 11383 is designed for the Mazda 3 5-door, including the Speed 3 5-door model.
The Curt 11383 is designed for use with ballmount #55001 or #45501.
The Curt 11383 includes: 6 × 7/16-14 UNC Grade 8 carriage bolts (1-1/2" long), 6 × 7/16-14 UNC Grade 8 serrated flange nuts, 6 × 0.250 × 0.88 × 2.25" square hole spacers (CM-SP2), and 2 × 7/16" fishwire.
You will need: a torque wrench, a ratchet, an extension, an 11/16" socket, and a 10mm socket.
No, drilling is not required. The Curt 11383 uses the fishwire technique to route hardware through existing frame rail access holes.
The estimated installation time is 20 minutes.
The fishwire technique involves threading the 7/16" fishwire through the access hole in the trunk pan wall and out through the holes in the bottom of the frame rails. The carriage bolts and CM-SP2 spacers are then attached to the fishwire and pulled through to align with the hitch mounting holes, where they are secured with flange nuts.
You do not need to fully remove the fascia. You only need to remove the existing bolts securing the fascia tabs to the fascia brackets (step 2), then pull down on the fascia and slide the hitch between the fascia tabs and brackets (step 3). The bolts are reinstalled after the hitch is in place (step 5).
All 7/16" hardware (carriage bolts and flange nuts) must be torqued to 70 ft-lbs.
All non-trailer loads applied to this product must be supported by auxiliary stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty.
You must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. While the Curt 11383 has a gross load capacity of 2,000 lbs. trailer weight and 200 lbs. tongue weight, your Mazda 3 may have a lower capacity limit that must be observed.
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.
