The Curt Class II Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # C12225, that you referenced has capacities of 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight.
If you add the 550 lbs of the trailer with the weight of your 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic of 600 lbs you end up with 1,150 lbs which would be well under the weight limit of the # C12225. Also, tongue weight is usually around 15 percent of the overall total trailer weight so that would put the tongue weight at about 173 lbs. In regard... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Class II hitch # 36426 is a confirmed fit for your 2009 Pontiac G6 and the hitch itself offers a maximum towing capacity of 3500-lbs.
If your trailer has a 2K-rated axle then the hitch will have plenty of capacity to tow it, but you'll also want to check the G9 owner's manual since the car itself may have a different towing capacity than the hitch. The lower-rated item determines overall capacity. A hitch installation video is linked for you.
Towing also requires a ball,... view full answer...
With the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12228 installed on a Vibe similar to your 2009 Pontiac Vibe we noted the top of the hitch will sit at approximately 12". Please note that this can slightly due to different models offering different tire sizes and springs sagging due to age.
The Curt Class II Drawbar # C45521 has a 2-5/8" rise that would put the ball mount at an approximate height of 14-5/8". A 2" Ball # A-82 or 1-7/8" Ball # A-80 will be needed depending on your trailer coupler.... view full answer...
From your purchase records I see that you have purchased the Draw-Tite Sportframe Class I Trailer Hitch 24833 is designed to fit your 2007 Pontiac Solstice and is no longer available. The trailer hitch has a Class I tongue weight rating of 200 pounds.
Since Pontiac determined that your vehicle is not designed to tow a trailer, there is no stated maximum tongue weight capacity for your Solstice in the owner's manual and any weight carried on the hitch will be carried at your own risk.... view full answer...

We had the opportunity to test fit hitches on the Pontiac Grand Prix and found that the Curt Hitch # C12225 has just 7 1/2 inches of clearance from the bottom of the receiver to the ground.
The Curt Hitch # C12225 has a nice powder coat finish that tends to hold up better than that used by other brands, so the hitch will better fight rust and scratches. For the installation, it will be helpful to have a nylon tube brush like # 814092 and some spray lubricant for cleaning out the weld... view full answer...
The lightest weight weight distribution system we offer that would be recommended for your trailer with 540 lbs of tongue weight would be the Reese Weight Distributions System part # RP66541. This system includes a shank and only weighs in at 69 lbs with a ball. Which is much lighter than the other systems.
The weight of just the spring bars and head assembly plus shank would be right at 62 lbs.
For a hitch ball you would want the part # 19286. view full answer...
Your concerns about scraping the ground are certainly understandable, so I'm happy to help you out. The Curt # C12225 is going to be approximately 7-1/2 inches from the bottom of the receiver tube to the ground on your 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix. In regard to custom mounts, that's essentially what these hitches are, having been designed specifically for makes, models and years of certain vehicles. There would not be any type of custom hitch specifically made to make the receiver higher. view full answer...
The correct capacity for Curt hitch # C12234 is 2000 lbs towing and 200 lbs tongue weight. I took a look at the owner's manual and it states that your 2004 Pontiac Vibe has a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 lbs, which is the weight you would need to go by.
That hitch does come with a drawbar and pin and clip, though if you are looking to tow you will also need a 4-flat connector, which you can add with T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118458. For a 1-7/8" hitch ball you would need # A-80... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch, # 12333, is a class II hitch rated for 350 pounds of tongue weight and 3,500 pounds of gross trailer weight. As long as your trailer and jet ski do not exceed that, and the 2006 Pontiac G6 has a high enough towing capacity, it will be strong enough for your application.
You can find the towing capacities of the vehicle by looking in the owners manual. If the vehicle and hitch have different towing capacities, go by the lower rating of the two. I have included a... view full answer...
