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 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 7,500 lbs. GTW and 750 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 7,500 lbs. WD and 750 lbs. WDTW. 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.

Yes, the installation difficulty level is rated as Difficult. Installation time and effort vary depending on installer expertise, vehicle condition, and proper tools and equipment. The installation requires part removal including bumper cover, wheel well liners, electrical connectors, taillight cover, rear bumper beam, and exhaust hangers.
Torque 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lbs. Torque 5/16" hardware to 178 in-lbs. Use a torque wrench to ensure proper tightening during installation.
Yes. The bumper cover must be removed to access the frame rails and install the hitch side plates. After installation and torquing all hardware, reinstall the bumper cover by reversing the removal steps.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times during installation. Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. After installation, perform periodic inspection of the trailer hitch to ensure all mounting hardware remains tight and structural components are secure.
Periodic inspection of the trailer hitch should be performed to ensure all mounting hardware remains tight and structural components are secure. Refer to specified torque specifications (1/2" hardware at 110 ft-lbs, 5/16" hardware at 178 in-lbs) when checking hardware.
The kit includes: 1 trailer hitch, 6 carriage bolts (1/2"), 6 serrated-flange nuts (1/2"), 4 fishwires (1/2"), 2 carriage bolts (5/16"), and 2 flange nuts (5/16"). All fasteners needed for installation are supplied.
Installation requires removal of: bumper cover bolts (4 from bottom), wheel well liner bolts (4 from rear of each liner), wheel trim, electrical connectors at rear of tires, taillight cover, rear bumper beam (2 outside bolts and 1 bottom bolt from each frame rail), and exhaust hangers (2 bolts on L models from outside, 1 bolt on Non-L models from bottom of frame rail). All removed parts are reinstalled after hitch installation.
First, remove four bolts from the bottom of the bumper cover using a 10mm socket. Remove four bolts from the rear of each wheel well liner using an 8mm socket. Gently pull the wheel trim away from the vehicle starting at the bottom and working up, squeezing white clips behind the wheel liner if needed. Remove the newly exposed bolt using a 10mm socket on both sides. Disconnect electrical connectors at the rear of each tire by pulling the tab toward the front and pushing down. Remove the taillight cover by pulling straight rearward. Finally, gently pull the bumper cover away from the vehicle starting at the wheel well and working toward the rear.
L models and Non-L models differ in two ways: (1) Exhaust hanger removal—L models require removing two bolts from each exhaust hanger on the outside of the vehicle; Non-L models require removing one bolt from each exhaust hanger on the bottom of the frame rail. (2) Hitch side plate hole selection—L models use the set of holes farthest from the main body; Non-L models use the set of holes closest to the main body. Both use 13mm sockets for exhaust hangers.
Locate the electrical connectors on each side of the vehicle at the rear of the tire behind the bumper cover. Disconnect by pulling the tab on the vehicle side of the connector toward the front of the vehicle, then push it down. The connectors are disconnected to allow removal of the bumper cover and rear bumper beam.
Removing the taillight is optional but may ease installation on some models. To remove, use a T-30 Torx bit to remove the bolt securing it in place and gently pull the light rearward. Set it aside for reinstallation. At minimum, the taillight cover must be removed by pulling straight rearward.
Remove the rear bumper beam by removing two bolts from the outside and one bolt from the bottom of each frame rail using a 21mm socket. Return the bumper beam and fasteners to the vehicle owner after installation is complete.
Insert the hitch side plates into the end of the frame rails and loosely secure with the supplied 1/2" carriage bolts and serrated-flange nuts by reaching into the end of the frame rail to install the bottom bolts. Use fishwires for the side bolts if required. For L models, use the set of holes farthest from the main body. For Non-L models, use the set of holes closest to the main body. Insert 5/16" carriage bolts into the smaller slots on the bottom of the side plates and reinstall the exhaust using 5/16" serrated-flange nuts.
Fishwires are supplied fastening aids (4 included, 1/2" size). They are used to help install the side bolts of the hitch side plates when reaching into the end of the frame rail is difficult. The manual states to use fishwires "if required," meaning they are optional depending on your vehicle's frame rail configuration and your ability to access the bolts.
The manual instructs to loosely secure all hitch side plate bolts first (Step 9), then torque all hardware in Step 10. Torque 1/2" hardware to 110 ft-lbs and 5/16" hardware to 178 in-lbs. After torquing, reinstall the bumper cover by reversing the removal steps.
After torquing all hitch hardware, reinstall the bumper cover by reversing Steps 1-7 in reverse order. This means: reconnect electrical connectors, reinstall the taillight cover and taillight (if removed), reinstall the rear bumper beam with 21mm bolts, reinstall exhaust hangers with 13mm bolts, reinstall wheel trim, reinstall wheel well liner bolts with 8mm socket, and reinstall bumper cover bottom bolts with 10mm socket.
Yes. When not in use, the hitch can be hidden behind the factory bumper cover.
