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 Kia Spectra (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 gross load capacity when used as a weight-carrying hitch is 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, as this is a limiting factor.

The kit includes: (3) M10×1.25×40 mm hex head cap screws (part 10-10398), (3) 7/16" S-CON washers (part 30-00163), (1) 0.250×1.50×3.00" square hole spacer (part CM-SP4), (1) 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolt 1-3/4" long grade 8 (part 10-10272), and (1) 1/2-13 UNC serrated flange nut grade 8 (part 20-00062).
No. The manual states "NO DRILLING REQUIRED." The hitch uses existing weld nuts in the vehicle frame and the vehicle's factory tow loops.
You will need a torque wrench capable of tightening to 48 lb-ft and 110 lb-ft, and standard wrenches or sockets to fit M10 and 1/2" fasteners. The manual does not specify additional tools such as jacks, lifts, or other equipment.
Yes. Step 1 requires you to detach the (3) rubber exhaust hangers to lower the exhaust. After the hitch is installed and fastened, you must reattach the rubber exhaust hangers in step 6.
Remove (3) M10 bolts: (2) on the passenger side and (1) on the driver side. These bolts go through the frame and into the bumper bracket. Return these bolts to the vehicle owner after removal; they are not reused in the hitch installation.
Raise the hitch into position, passenger side first. Use the vehicle's tow loops to support the hitch during installation. Install the 1/2" carriage bolt, spacer, and flange nut using the tow loop as shown in the diagram.
1. Detach the (3) rubber exhaust hangers to lower the exhaust. 2. Remove (3) M10 bolts from the bumper bracket. 3. Raise the hitch into position, passenger side first, and install the 1/2" carriage bolt, spacer, and flange nut using the vehicle tow loop. 4. Install the supplied M10 bolts into existing weld nuts finger tight. 5. Torque all M10 fasteners to 48 lb-ft and all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft. 6. Reattach the rubber exhaust hangers.
Install the supplied M10 bolts into the existing weld nuts finger tight first (step 4). Only after all fasteners are in place should you torque them to their final specifications: M10 fasteners to 48 lb-ft and 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft (step 5).
All M10 fasteners must be torqued to 48 lb-ft.
The 1/2" carriage bolt and flange nut must be torqued to 110 lb-ft.
The hitch has a gross load capacity of 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than the hitch capacity.
Non-trailer loads can be applied to the hitch only if they are 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. The manual does not specify a particular interval; perform these checks regularly, especially before towing.
