Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the BMW X1 (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 2,500 lbs. GTW and 250 lbs. TW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.

A 2" x 2" receiver opening is one of the most common hitch sizes and works with a wide range of towing accessories, including ball mounts, bike racks, cargo carriers, hitch steps and tow hooks. When towing a trailer, you may also need a properly rated trailer ball, hitch pin, wiring harness, brake controller or weight distribution system.
CURT trailer hitches feature a durable black finish designed to help protect against rust, scratches and exposure to road conditions. Many models install using existing holes in the vehicle frame, although drilling, trimming or temporary removal of vehicle components may be required for certain applications.
Use our vehicle fitment tools to find the correct CURT 2" trailer hitch for your year, make and model. Always compare the hitch rating with your vehicle’s towing capacity and the ratings of every component in your towing setup. The maximum towing capacity is determined by the lowest-rated component.

CURT part 13140 fits 2013-present BMW X1 models with panoramic sunroof only. If your X1 does not have a panoramic sunroof, this hitch is not compatible. Verify your vehicle's sunroof type before purchasing.
The CURT 13140 has a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2,500 lbs and a tongue weight capacity of 250 lbs 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 BMW owner's manual for the vehicle's maximum towing limit.
Yes, but all non-trailer loads (wheel-less loads) must be supported by auxiliary stabilizing straps. CURT recommends part 18050 stabilizing straps for this purpose. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads with stabilizing straps will void the product warranty.
You will need: ratchet, 8mm, 18mm, 19mm, and 11/16" sockets, torque wrench, 11/16" open-end or box wrench, plastic rivet gun, flat-head screwdriver, and center punch. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
Yes, replacement M6 black rivets (part 10-10401) are included with the hitch. Two rivets are supplied to replace the nylon rivets removed from the rear fascia during installation.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. However, step 1 requires unplugging back-up sensors from the rear fascia. Contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634 for guidance on whether battery disconnection is necessary before unplugging electrical components.
Two people may be required to ease installation. The manual notes that using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce the time required. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer at 877-287-8634.
No, drilling is not required. The manual explicitly states "NO DRILLING REQUIRED" for this hitch installation.
Four 12mm nuts from the bumper attachments on both sides (two per side) will be removed and reused in step 3 to secure the hitch. These are the existing flange nuts. A 12mm bolt from the A-frame is also removed but returned to the owner and not reused.
Spacers serve two purposes: (1) washers are placed as needed between the bumper attachments and hitch plates on both sides to ensure proper fit, and (2) two 0.188 x 1.38 x 1.50" round-hole spacers (part CM-SP41) are placed between the hitch and the A-frame before securing with the 12mm bolt and conical toothed washer.
Torque all 12mm fasteners to 82 lb-ft and all 7/16" fasteners to 70 lb-ft. These torque values apply to the hitch mounting bolts and the mounting strap fasteners.
Push the small center rod through the rivet with a small punch or equivalent tool. Pry the rivets from the trim and pop the trim off. Two nylon rivets (part 10-10401) secure the rear fascia and will be replaced with the supplied M6 black rivets after hitch installation.
Yes, you must unplug the back-up sensors before removing the rear fascia. This is noted in step 1 of the installation process.
The mounting strap is attached using 7/16" fasteners. The manual specifies 7/16-14 UNC grade 8 bolts (part 10-10281) and 7/16-14 UNC grade 8 serrated flange nuts (part 20-00103), along with 7/16" flat washers (part 30-00166). These fasteners are torqued to 70 lb-ft.
An M12-1.5 x 60 hex bolt (part 10-10537) with a conical toothed washer (part 30-00149) secures the two spacers between the hitch and the A-frame. This 12mm bolt is torqued to 82 lb-ft.
Reinstall the rear fascia panel. A plastic rivet gun is required to fasten the supplied M6 black rivets (part 10-10401) to secure the fascia. Two rivets are used to replace the original nylon rivets that were removed in step 1.
After installation, verify that all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual recommends periodically checking the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners remain tight and structural components remain in good condition.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but regular inspection before towing is recommended.
