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 Hyundai Elantra (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.

Yes, CURT hitch 11424 is designed for 2017-current Hyundai Elantra Sedan models. Before purchasing, verify your vehicle matches this year range and body style.
The hitch is rated for a maximum of 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower. Check your vehicle's owner manual for the final limit.
The hitch is designed for use with ball mount D-21 / 45521. Euro mount options are also available: part 45571 (1-7/8" ball) or 45572 (2" ball). The ball mount is not included with the hitch and must be purchased separately.
You will need: flat head screwdriver, 10mm, 13mm, 15mm, and 17mm sockets, 9/16" socket, 6" socket extension, socket wrench, torque wrench, tape measure, tape, and a cutoff wheel. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
Two people may be required to ease installation, though it may be possible for one person to complete it. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing vehicle tow loops and mounting points. You will need to lower the exhaust and trim the underbody panel, but no drilling of the vehicle frame is necessary.
You must lower the exhaust, not fully remove it. Detach the two rubber isolators towards the rear of the vehicle to lower it enough to access the mounting area. After installing the hitch, raise the exhaust back into position and reattach the isolators.
1. Lower exhaust by detaching two rubber isolators. 2. Temporarily remove driver side underbody panel (3 clips and 4 nuts). 3. Remove two bolts from bumper beam area using 15mm socket. 4. Place 3/8" u-bolt over vehicle tow loop. 5. Raise hitch and slide u-bolt through hitch holes. 6. Secure with M10 or M8 bolts and conical toothed washers (depending on model origin). 7. Install washers and hex nuts on u-bolt. 8. Torque all fasteners. 9. Mark and cut underbody panel opening. 10. Reinstall underbody panel. 11. Raise and reattach exhaust.
Yes, you must trim the underbody panel. After the hitch is installed and torqued, mark the cut location (1 inch, 1.75 inches, and 3.5 inches as shown in the diagram), then cut out the marked location using a cutoff wheel. This is a permanent modification to allow hitch clearance.
Torque values depend on your vehicle's origin: M10 hardware to 48 lb-ft (USA-built models), M8 hardware to 23 lb-ft (Korean-built models), and 3/8" u-bolt hardware to 26 lb-ft (all models). The manual does not specify how to determine whether your vehicle is USA-built or Korean-built; contact CURT technical support at 800-798-0813 if unsure.
The hitch includes: one 3/8-16 x 1.938 x .875" u-bolt (CM-3805-UBR), four M10-1.25 x 35 hex bolts, four 7/16" conical toothed washers, four M8-1.25 x 35 hex bolts, four 3/8" conical toothed washers, two 3/8-16 hex nuts, two 3/8" lock washers, and two 5/16" washers. The M10 bolts and 7/16" washers are for USA-built models; the M8 bolts and 3/8" washers are for Korean-built models.
The hitch is rated for a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower. Always check your vehicle's owner manual for the final limit.
Non-trailer loads (wheel-less loads) can be applied to the hitch, but they must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads with these straps will void the product warranty. See the CURT catalog or visit www.curtmfg.com for further information on the 18050 straps.
After installation, verify that all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual recommends periodically checking the hitch during ownership to ensure fasteners remain tight and components remain in good condition.
The manual recommends periodically checking the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. No specific interval is provided; establish a regular maintenance schedule based on your towing frequency and vehicle use.
