Trailer Hitch Installation - 2013 Chrysler 300 - Curt C12064- Video

Today on our 2013 Chrysler 300, we will be installing the Curt Class II 1-1/4" Receiver Hitch, Part Number C12064. As you can see, a very minimal amount hangs down. The only part you really see is the 1-1/4" receiver right here and the two loops that are easily accessible for our safety chain hooks for our trailer to attach to. It has a nice gloss black powder-coated finish, so it'll be durable and provide us some corrosion residence from the salt and road grim and debris which may come in contact with it. This hitch has a 3,500-pound gross trailer weight reading and a 350-pound max tongue weight rating. You'll want to consult the owner's manual of your Chrysler 300 and go by the numbers that are listed in it. For a few measurements to better assist you in choosing any hitch-mounted accessories such as ball mounts, bike racks, or cargo carriers, you're looking at about 8 1/4" from the ground to the top of the 1 1/4" receiver, and you're looking at about 6" from the center of the 1/2" diameter hitch pin hole out to the far point of the bumper. If you're using this for a non-trailer application, such as using it for a bike rack or a cargo carrier, Curt requires that you use a cargo stabilization strap just to help support some of the load that is being placed on the hitch. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2013 Chrysler 300 - Draw-Tite- Video

Today on our 2013 Chrysler 300, we'll be installing the Draw-Tite Class 2 inch and a quarter trailer hitch receiver, part number 36548. Here's what our Draw-Tite hitch looks like installed. As you can see, it's a really clean installation. A very minimal amount is hanging down beneath the vehicle, just the inch and a quarter receiver right here sticking out a little bit underneath the bottom lip of the bumper, but it's still recessed behind the actual edge of the bumper, so it's not something you're going to be walking by and hitting your shin or your knee on. Plate here on the bottom of the hitch gives us a nice, secure mounting location for our safety chains, really easy to get to for you. This hitch has a half-inch diameter pin hole here, so you're going to use that for your hitch pin, your locking device, to secure your ball mount, bike carrier, or cargo rack. Just keep that in mind. This hitch has a 3500-pound max gross trailer weight rating, and a 300-pound max gross tongue weight rating. Now you want to consult the owner's manual of your Chrysler 300 and go by its number listed there. If the vehicle's only rated to tow 3000 pounds, obviously you don't want to go to the 3500 pounds that the hitch is rated for, or you could cause damage to the vehicle. Now for a few measurements to help you in choosing any hitch mounted accessories out there for you, such as ball mounts, bike racks, or cargo carriers, you're looking about six inches from the center of the hitch pin hole, out to the back of the bumper cover, and you're looking about ten inches from the ground to the top of the inch and a quarter Class 2 opening on the hitch. more
