Review on πŸš— CURT 13143 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver, Compatible with Lexus RX350 and RX450h Models by Andy Kucrud

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good fit: Receiver

Easy to install on my SUV. I unhooked the exhaust pipe, but it wasn't really necessary when I installed the hitch. Probably the hardest part was removing the lower fairing, cutting the exact holes for the hitch and reinstalling. I torqued the bolts to 86 ft-lbs as instructed, but in retrospect. Maybe I just had to use the max torque impact gun I needed to loosen the tow hook loops. The packaging could have been better. The coupling broke out of the shipping carton upon delivery. The USPS did a good job of preventing it from scratching the floor or any other surface as long as it hasn't been damaged. The only paintwork damage was under the protective film on one of the wires next to the 2" receiver. I don't know how it happened but it still works. I was able to cover the discolored metal with a spray primer.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Concerns me
