CURT Class 3 Trailer Hitches are designed, built, and tested to accommodate a wide variety of towing applications. Class 3 Trailer Hitches are perfect for towing fishing boat trailers, popup campers, ATV trailers, utility trailers, and much more. They are also ideal for adding storage space to your vehicle with a hitch-mounted cargo carrier or bike rack. (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component.)
Each CURT Class 3 Hitch is engineered to fit on a specific vehicle. This provides the best possible fit and easiest installation. This particular custom class 3 hitch fits specific years of the Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator. It is designed to integrate with the vehicle’s existing features and offer a reliable connection to your trailer.
This Ford / Lincoln hitch is stringently tested in accordance with SAE J684 to ensure a weight carrying capacity of 6,000 lbs. GTW and 600 lbs. TW. It also features a 2″ receiver tube opening to accept ball mount or other hitch accessory with a 2″ x 2″ shank.
All CURT custom-fit receiver hitches are made in the USA to ensure quality from design to finish. They are designed with hands-on engineering for a precise fit. They are welded using a combination of manual and robotic operations for speed and accuracy. Finally, they are finished with a unique co-curing process. Each hitch is dipped in a liquid A-coat for rust prevention, inside and out, and then co-cured in a durable black powder coat finish for maximum rust, chip, and UV resistance.
Every CURT custom hitch design is thoroughly tested and adheres to the proposed SAE J684 testing protocols to make sure that the hitch you mount on your vehicle will be a dependable means to enjoy your lifestyle. Whatever your passion – whether it’s hunting, fishing, camping, off-roading, or hard work – you can expect reliability for the road ahead. All CURT custom hitches are covered by a limited lifetime warranty to give you confidence in each adventure, season after season.
