CURT 11265 Class 1 Trailer Hitch, 1-1/4-Inch Receiver, Compatible with Select Corolla

Great class I hitch for attaching a bike rack. The pre-drilled holes and size/shape of hitch fit perfectly on a '13 Toyota Corolla S without needing to make any modifications. Used blue loctite on the bolts to keep them in place. My local car repair shop mounted it on the vehicle for me, and it was so easy, they charged me very little to bolt it on while they were doing some other work. This hitch comes with a bolt and pin to put through the hitch and whatever you have inserted into the hitch, but it does not lock, it is just a pin. I instead use the Stowaway hitch tightener as a deterrent to stealing my bike rack as I usually am not too far away from the car and taking it off would hopefully slow the thief down enough that I would notice what is going on. This hitch has a 1-1/4" hitch. Below are some other accessories I purchased with it that work well. Swagman XC Cross-Country 2-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (1/1/4 and 2-Inch Receiver) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001VO1YY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Decent bike rack for a reasonable price. StowAway Hitch Tightener https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001CMUV4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This eliminates the wobble and vibration between the hitch and the bike rack. 1 1/4 Inch (1.25") Trailer Hitch Cover Plug Insert https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KWGU7/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This is a plug to put in the 1-1/4" hitch to close the opening when the bike rack isn't attached. You do have to use a flathead screwdriver to pry it out to remove it, it fits snugly.

Fits great. Nuts are already in place. I have a 2009 corolla S. Supposed to be a 10 minute job outside the rust belt but I was prepared. But I wasn't. I had to beat the one frame rail side flat and descale it as best I could and descale the other side and drowned everything in fluid film. The nuts welded in the frame were so bad, I couldn't tap them even with an impact. They are 12 X 1.25 so I tapped them with the impact with 11 x 1.25 then went back and used 12 x 1.25 with lots of tap magic. That worked and I used fluid film on top of the hitch too where it bolts to the frame and locktite on the bolts. Wow, that's just crazy another couple years and I don't know if those nuts welded into the frame could have been saved at all.

Installed easily, couldn't ask for simpler. If you are ordering this, I would recommend making sure you have a ratchet wrench, 19mm socket and a (approximately) 9" extension. A torque wrench is helpful as well; they call for 86 ft/lb of torque.

Installed easy. Looks well made.

Worked great for my wife’s 2019 Corolla!

These were mostly purchased for use as a bike carrier. The installation was fairly easy, though getting the screws into their holes took a bit of work, but the holes were adequately placed to fit my Toyota Corolla. All the necessary bolts were supplied and they fit the pre-existing holes. The hitch drags the ground a lot in steep driveways, but this might be mostly from the weight I typically have in my car. I have not tested it with a trailer, though it should work well for very light loads.

Easy fit. Be sure to wire brush or tap the holes before trying. The holes on the car will be rusty.

Going into this purchase, I was unaware that anyone made a trailer hitch for this vehicle. For the cost and the relative ease of the install, I think most everyone should take a moment right after buying any new vehicle to get one of these installed. It improves the cargo carrying ability of the vehicle, gives you the option to tow a small trailer and possibly other things, and it improves the rigidity of the frame near the rear bumper. The only issue I encountered was having to tap the pre-installed weld nuts on the car due to 5+ years of exposure to salt and ice. Even so, I had no trouble torquing the bolts to the required 86 ft lbs. Installing this on a new vehicle would avoid that issue. Be aware though, there are some pieces you don't get with this product - I had to get the cross pin and ball receiver separately. Another reviewer said the frame of the vehicle was made out of aluminum, but I doubt that is the case. It would be very difficult to attach a steel weldnut to an aluminum frame (assuming they really are welded) and I doubt that the threads would have rusted if they were made out of aluminum as well.

I was unable to support the hitch and install the bolts myself. A local hitch shop installed it for me in just a few minutes and a minimal cost. The hitch is used to support a lockable e-bike rack. It works well. Bike rack slides into the hitch receiver easily and is secured without difficulty.

Hace lo que tiene que hacer, el tirón es de calidad, es tal y como se muestra en la primer fotografía de la publicación, se siente de calidad, que va a durar, muy fácil de instalar, básicamente solo se atornillan 4 tornillos con sus respectivas rondanas y está listo para usar, lo instale con ayuda de mi papá y nos tomo 20 minutos a lo mucho hacerlo. El vehículo para el que lo compre es un Corolla 2012, sin duda volvía a comprar el artículo.

Es realmente verdad de que te tardas 20 minutos en instalarlo, ajusta perfectamente en el auto y es extremadamente funcional, muy buena compra!!!

Bought this for my 2015 Corolla LE, it was a perfect fit, used it to attach to a 4 bike carrier, traveled thousands of KM with it and no issues, solid.

Muy buenos materiales facil de instalar
