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 Mini Cooper Clubman (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.

The CURT 115243 Class 1 Trailer Hitch with Ball Mount, 1-1/4-In Receiver, Fits Select Mini Cooper Clubman (Part #BKDK115243) Drilling is not required for installation. Typical installation time is 90+ minutes. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The 11524 hitch is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 2,000 lbs and a tongue weight of 200 lbs when used as a weight-carrying hitch. The hitch itself weighs 24 lbs. You must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than these ratings.
Yes, the 11524 is designed for 2016-present Mini Cooper Clubman Wagon models. The manual does not specify fitment for other Mini Cooper body styles or earlier model years, so you should verify your specific vehicle configuration before purchase.
Required tools are: ratchet, torque wrench, 8mm socket, 10mm socket, 18mm socket, 8-inch extension, T-25 Torx bit socket, pry bar, aviation shears, and safety glasses. Proper tools will greatly improve installation quality and reduce installation time.
No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing vehicle studs and hardware for attachment to the frame and rear bumper beam.
Yes, you must temporarily remove the rear bumper and rear fascia to access the mounting points. The bumper is reinstalled after the hitch is secured in place.
Two people may be required to ease installation. The manual lists this as an installation tip but does not make it mandatory, so a single person may be able to complete the installation with additional care.
Yes, heatshield trimming is required. Use aviation shears to trim the heatshield according to the trim diagram provided in the manual. The dimensions shown are approximate, so you should confirm fit prior to trimming to avoid over-cutting.
All M12 hardware must be torqued to 86 ft-lbs. This is the only torque specification provided in the manual.
Follow these steps in order: (1) Remove 1 screw on each side of the wheel well and 8 screws on the bottom of the rear fascia using an 8mm socket. (2) Open rear hatch doors and remove 2 push pins using a pry tool. (3) Unclip plastic wheel well trim and electrical harness, then remove 1 screw on each side using a T-25 socket. (4) Carefully unclip the rear fascia starting from the outside and working toward the center. Unclip the electrical harness from the bumper cover if present. (5) Remove the rear bumper beam by removing 2 nuts on each side using an 18mm socket. If hands-free split rear doors are present, remove 2 fasteners and unclip them from the vehicle.
Raise the hitch into position using the studs to align it, then reinstall the rear bumper beam over the hitch and secure it using the existing vehicle hardware. After the bumper is secured, reinstall all vehicle components removed in steps 1-6 in reverse order.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance. You can reach CURT technical support at 800-798-0813.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This ongoing inspection is essential for safe towing operation.
The 11524 is designed for use with CURT ball mount model 45521. Euro mount options are available in two sizes: model 45571 (1 7/8" ball) and model 45572 (2" ball).
Yes, CURT recommends the use of model 18050 stabilizing straps for all non-trailer (wheel-less) loads. See the CURT catalog or visit www.curtmfg.com for further information.
