Description
CURT class 2 trailer hitches are perfect for adding storage space to your vehicle or towing a small, light-duty trailer. They are typically found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. CURT class 2 hitches are made vehicle-specific. This means that each and every towing hitch is designed to custom-fit a specific vehicle application. This ensures dependable towing strength, an integrated look on the vehicle and a streamlined installation. This particular class 2 hitch is made for a custom fit on certain years of the Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Vue (to verify vehicle compatibility, see application information or use the Vehicle Lookup). This GMC / Pontiac / Saturn / Chevy hitch is rated to tow up to 3,500 lbs. gross trailer weight and 350 lbs. tongue weight. This makes it an excellent choice for towing a small utility trailer, popup camper, boat trailer and many others (never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). It is also the ideal option for adding cargo space to your vehicle with a hitch-mounted cargo carrier or bike rack. Like all CURT custom hitches, this class 2 hitch is stringently tested for safety. We want to ensure you can tow with confidence wherever your destination might be. We test our hitches in-house at our Detroit, MI engineering facility, according to SAE J684. Like our class 1 hitches, this class 2 tow hitch comes with a 1-1/4″ x 1-1/4″ receiver tube opening. This industry-standard 1-1/4″ receiver is able to accept any ball mount or other hitch accessory with a 1-1/4″ shank. It can also accept a hitch tube cover when not in use to keep the hitch receiver clean and dry. From class 1 to class 5, all CURT custom trailer hitches are designed, manufactured, finished and tested to ensure maximum performance and longevity. We employ hands-on engineering techniques, using real vehicles, to fully optimize our hitch designs. We fabricate and weld our hitches using a combination of manual and robotic processes for maximum efficiency and accuracy. Finally, we finish our towing hitches with a unique co-curing process, using liquid A-coat and highly durable gloss black powder coat. Each hitch is fully immersed in the A-coat, covering it inside and out with a rust-resistant layer. Then, the powder coat is applied over the top of that. The two finishes are cured together to create a shield of industry-leading rust, chip and UV protection. To ensure quality through every step of the manufacturing process, all CURT custom-fit receiver hitches are made right here in the USA (may include imported hardware) and are backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
