Exhaust Mounting Hardware for Curt Trailer Hitch # 13364

Question:

Is this hitch suppose to come with the extra bolt to attach the muffler? In your installation video for a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan you seem to imply that an included bolt should be used to attach one end of the muffler bracket to the hitch. Should I have received such a bolt? If not what size should I get?

I reached out to my contact at Curt to determine why that bolt is not included in the # 13364. He took a look at that specific video with me and we were able to determine that there was a change in the hitch design. In the 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan video which I've attached, there were 3 holes and a notch on the passenger side where the AC lines ran. They changed the hitch to only have the 2 bolt holes on that passenger side so there was no need to include that exhaust hanger hardware any longer as the mounting location no longer interfered with the new design. I've attached one of the other videos with the newer designed hitch to allow comparison.

You will be able to reuse your existing mount bolt, so no hardware is included.
