Class 3 Trailer Hitch 2" Receiver

The Curt Manufacturing 13078 is a Class 3 trailer hitch with a 2-inch receiver tube. It is designed for towing trailers, mounting plow equipment or attaching bike racks and cargo carriers. The black finish protects the steel structure from corrosion during year-round use. This hitch suits vehicle owners who need a standard receiver for moderate towing tasks.

Class 3 Rating and 2-Inch Receiver

The single specification that determines fitment is the Class 3 rating paired with a 2-inch receiver opening. This combination defines the maximum gross trailer weight and tongue weight the hitch can handle. It also dictates which ball mounts, hitch pins and accessories are compatible. Verify your vehicle’s specific tow rating before installation.

Vehicle-Specific Mounting

The hitch bolts to the vehicle frame using a model-specific bracket kit that is not included with this part number. Installation typically requires basic hand tools and access to the underside of the chassis. Once fitted, the 2-inch receiver accepts a wide range of ball mounts, hitch steps and cargo carriers. It frees up the rear bumper for other accessories while providing a secure tow point.

Questions about this item

What does the Class 3 rating mean for real-world towing with this Curt 13078 hitch?

Class 3 indicates a weight-carrying capacity suited for mid-size trailers, boats or campers; the exact gross trailer weight and tongue weight limits are set by the vehicle manufacturer and must be checked in the owner's manual before towing.

How does the 2-inch receiver opening limit the accessories I can use?

The 2-inch square receiver accepts standard Class 3 and 4 accessories such as ball mounts, bike racks and cargo carriers; it will not fit 1¼-inch light-duty shanks or 2½-inch commercial-duty shanks without an adapter.

What hardware and frame space are needed to bolt the 13078 onto my vehicle?

The hitch bolts to existing frame holes using the supplied grade-8 hardware; installation typically requires a torque wrench, socket set and access to the vehicle's frame rails, with no drilling needed on most applications.
