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 Audi A3 and A3 Quattro (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 11399 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.
You will need a 3/4" socket, a ratchet, and a torque wrench. The manual notes that using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce installation time.
No. The CURT 11399 uses fishwire fasteners and requires no drilling. It utilizes existing frame access holes on your Audi A3.
The manual recommends that 2 people may be required to ease installation. One person may be able to complete the installation, but having a second person can help with positioning the hitch.
All 1/2" fasteners must be torqued to 110 lb-ft. This includes the four 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts and four 1/2" hex flange nuts.
The kit includes: (4) 1/2-13 UNC carriage bolts, 1-1/2" long (part 10-10287); (4) 1/2" hex flange nuts (part 20-00062); (2) lengths of 1/2" fishwire (part 1_2 FISHWIRE); and (4) square hole spacers, 0.250 x 1.00 x 3.00" (part CM-SP6).
1. Fishwire the four 1/2" carriage bolts and four CM-SP6 spacers into the forward frame access holes and mounting holes toward the rear of the vehicle. 2. Raise the hitch into position over the exhaust, being careful not to push the carriage bolts back into the frame rails. Loosely install the four 1/2" hex flange nuts. 3. Torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft. Installation is then complete.
Safety glasses should be worn at all times while installing this product. Read all instructions thoroughly before beginning installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized CURT installer for additional assistance.
Non-trailer loads (wheel-less loads) can be applied to this hitch, but they must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty. See the CURT catalog or visit www.curtmfg.com for further information on stabilizing straps.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This ongoing inspection helps maintain the integrity and safety of the installation.
