Westin or DMI bumper hitch
Technical documents
A CURT bumper hitch attaches to your vehicle’s bumper rather than the frame and provides a receiver tube for a ball mount, cargo carrier, bike rack or other hitch-mounted insert. Unlike a bumper mount, which is simply a hole in the vehicle’s bumper for installing a trailer ball, a bumper hitch allows for a more precise fit and greater flexibility for towing applications. This CURT receiver-style hitch accepts a 2" x 2" ball mount shank and can tow up to 5,000 lbs. of gross trailer weight and 500 lbs. of tongue weight. This makes a bumper hitch an excellent choice for hauling several types of small trailers, including boat trailers, utility trailers, pop-up campers and more. However, it’s important to note that the load capacity always depends on the bumper’s rated capacity. CURT bumper-mount hitches come with a glossy black powder coat finish and offer a simple towing solution. They bolt easily beneath the step bumper on a pickup truck or SUV and provide a lower hitch point for level towing. Each model includes mounting hardware and safety chain loops.
