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 Lexus ES350 (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 Class 1 Trailer Hitch, 1-1/4" Receiver, Select Lexus ES300h, ES350 Trailer Hitch (Part #BKDK11362) fits 2013-2018 Lexus ES300h models. The 2018 model year is the last year covered by this part number. For newer models, check for an updated version.
The CURT Class 1 Trailer Hitch, 1-1/4" Receiver, Select Lexus ES300h, ES350 Trailer Hitch (Part #BKDK11362) Drilling is not required for installation. Typical installation time is 60-90 minutes. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, CURT part number 11362 is designed for 2013-Present Lexus ES 350 and ES 300h sedans. The hitch is a weight-carrying type with a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2,000 lbs and tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. Always verify your vehicle's manufacturer towing capacity before towing, as you must not exceed it.
The CURT 11362 is designed for use with ball mount D-55001 or 45501. A Euro mount option is also available with part numbers 45571 (1 7/8" ball) or 45572 (2" ball).
The CURT 11362 has a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2,000 lbs and a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
Required tools include: 10mm, 12mm, 14mm short and long, and 17mm sockets; ratchet; 6-inch extension; torque wrench; die grinder; aviator shears; masking tape; tape measure; screwdriver; and rubber isolator remover. Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation.
Installation is rated as moderate difficulty. Two people may be required to ease installation. Professional installation takes approximately 60 minutes; novice DIY installation takes approximately 120 minutes. If you are hesitant to undertake this task, contact an authorized CURT installer or call technical support at 877-287-8634.
Two people may be required to ease installation. The manual does not specify that two people are mandatory, but recommends their use to improve the quality of the install and reduce installation time.
No drilling is required. However, a die grinder is required to enlarge the existing large holes in the frame rails on each side to allow the carriage bolts and spacers to pass through. The heat shield must be trimmed as required to allow bolts to pass through. On single exhaust models, the underbody panel must be trimmed for the hitch to pass through.
No, you do not need to remove the exhaust system. However, you must lower the exhaust by 6-10 inches by removing rubber isolators and hanger brackets. The exhaust is then raised back into location and rubber isolators are reinstalled after the hitch is secured.
Torque all 10mm fasteners to 56 lb-ft and all 7/16" fasteners to 70 lb-ft.
The kit includes: 2 carriage bolts (7/16-14 UNC, 1-1/4", Grade 8, part 10-10281); 2 serrated flange nuts (7/16-14 UNC, Grade 8, part 20-00103); 2 square hole spacers (0.250 x 0.88 x 2.25", part CM-SP2); and 2 pieces of 7/16" fishwire (part 7_16 FISHWIRE). Existing fasteners from removed brackets and rubber isolators are reused.
After enlarging the frame rail holes with a die grinder, reverse fishwire the supplied bolts and spacers into the enlarged holes on each side using the two fishwires provided. This technique allows you to thread the fasteners through the holes without removing the frame rail.
The hitch is rated for a maximum trailer weight of 2,000 lbs and tongue weight of 200 lbs. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than these ratings.
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. CURT recommends the use of 18050 stabilizing straps for all non-trailer loads.
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 retorque interval or other maintenance procedures beyond this periodic inspection.
Single exhaust models require removal of 5 isolators (instead of 7 for dual exhaust), removal of 3 push-button fasteners and 3 plastic nuts (instead of 2 and 2), and removal of 1 additional screw from the driver side frame rail. Single exhaust models also require trimming of the underbody panel for the hitch to pass through, as shown in the diagrams. Dual exhaust models do not require this trimming.
Yes, you must remove the heat shield(s) using a 10mm socket to access the frame rails. After enlarging the frame rail holes, the heat shield is trimmed as required to allow bolts to pass through, then clamped between the hitch and the vehicle frame during final installation.
The fasteners removed from the tie down/exhaust hanger brackets in step 3 are reused to attach the hitch to the vertical flange and frame rail. The rubber isolators removed from the exhaust are also kept and reinstalled after the hitch is secured.
Yes, CURT 11362 fits 2013-Present Lexus ES 350 and ES 300h sedans. Maximum capacity: 2,000 lbs trailer weight, 200 lbs tongue weight. Always verify your vehicle's manufacturer towing capacity.
Required: 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, and 17mm sockets; ratchet; 6-inch extension; torque wrench; die grinder; aviator shears; tape measure; screwdriver; rubber isolator remover; masking tape. Safety glasses required.
No drilling required. Die grinder needed to enlarge existing frame rail holes. Heat shield trimming required. Single exhaust models require underbody panel trimming.
Torque all 10mm fasteners to 56 lb-ft and all 7/16" fasteners to 70 lb-ft.
Yes, but non-trailer loads must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to use straps voids the warranty.
Professional installation: 60 minutes. Novice DIY installation: 120 minutes. Two people may be required to ease installation.
Periodically check that all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. No other maintenance procedures are specified in the manual.
Ensure the frame rail holes have been sufficiently enlarged with the die grinder to allow the carriage bolt and spacer to pass through. The holes must be large enough for the fasteners to be threaded through. If the holes are too small, use the die grinder to enlarge them further. If you continue to have difficulty, contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634.
The heat shield should be trimmed as required to allow bolts to pass through. Trim additional material as needed to ensure the shield fits between the hitch and frame without interference. The shield should be clamped securely between the hitch and frame during final installation. If trimming does not resolve the issue, contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634.
Ensure you have removed all required rubber isolators and hanger brackets. Remove 2 rubber isolators by each muffler, 1 hanger on the passenger side by the muffler, and 1-2 center isolators (leaving the isolator by the engine attached). The exhaust should lower 6-10 inches. If it does not lower sufficiently, verify all isolators and brackets have been removed and contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight. Retorque all 10mm fasteners to 56 lb-ft and all 7/16" fasteners to 70 lb-ft. The manual does not specify a retorque interval, but regular inspection and tightening as needed will maintain hitch integrity.
