They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Hyundai Tucson (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 3,500 lbs. GTW and 525 lbs. TW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage. Review: Don't buy from the dealer when you can get this for alot less! - I purchased this hitch for a 2016 Hyundai Tucson Limited AWD. The instructions could have been better for sure. It is pretty simple as long as you do this: Get some WD40 to spray the rubber exhaust hanger above the exhaust tips. The lower hanger. Don't worry, it won't fall on you if you do this. Then you will need to put some pressure on the rubber hanger to slide it off of the metal rod/hanger. Once you do, the exhaust will hang down just enough for you to angle the hitch upwards towards the holes in the frame where you will bolt the bolts 2 the frame. 4 bolts for each side. You'll see in the directions that you will need to remove the plastic housings from the drivers rear & passenger rear of the underside. Really easy. Get a small tipped flat head screw driver to be able to pop the pins out. 4 each side. Once the pins are out, the plastic boxes just pull down. You are going to need a 17mm socket & a 6 inch or longer extension to be able to reach the vertical bolts. The horizontal bolts won't need an extension. If you have a torque wrench, tighten the bolts to 40lbs, that's what it calls for. Once the bolts are tight, don't forget to slide the exhaust back onto the hanger. It will slide on very easy. Once note, I applied a paint sealant to the entire hitch to help protect it. If you don't have sealant, just use whatever wax you have & put maybe 2 coats on it. I purchased a hitch cover that just slides into the receiver via pressure fit. No pin or anything to hold it in. It was $5.99 at my local auto parts store. I should have gotten the one that says Curt, but oh well. I hope this helps anyone that's worried about installing this or thinks that it may be hard. It really was pretty easy. Took me 40 minutes with everything, from set up to putting everything away. If you have ramps to drive it up on, it's going to make your job much much easier. I do not have a wiring kit for it. I don't plan on towing anything. I'm using this for my bike rack & I'm going to buy one of the baskets to put stuff in. Its not that noticeable having it installed. It doesn't stand out at all. It is a good quality hitch that I'm hoping lasts a long time. Sure beats the $450+ bucks the dealership wanted! Review: Nice add on - Perfect fit and an essential add on for my 2020 tucson! Bike racks, carriers and a dettacheable rear bumber if not in use is a nice touch. ## Features - Rated to 3,500 lbs. gross trailer weight and 525 lbs. tongue weight - Engineered with a vehicle-specific design for a custom fit - Concealed main body for OE look and seamless integration with the vehicle - Tested for safety in accordance with SAE J684 - Precisely welded for superior strength and fit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B012T85G2W | | Best Sellers Rank | #300,438 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #908 in Towing Hitch Receivers | | Brand | CURT | | Brand Name | CURT | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Sport Utility Vehicle | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 788 Reviews | | Finish Type | Gloss, Powder-Coated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00612314132409 | | Included Components | Class 3 Hitch | | Item Type Name | Hyundai Tucson | | Item Weight | 26.9 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Curt Manufacturing | | Manufacturer Part Number | 13240 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited Lifetime Warranty / 1 Year On Finish | | Material | Carbon Steel | | Material Type | Carbon Steel | | Model Number | 13240 | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | 13240 | | OEM Part Number | 13240 | | UPC | 612314132409 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | Sport Utility Vehicle | ## Product Details - **Brand:** CURT - **Item Weight:** 4.54 g - **Vehicle Service Type:** ATV, Car, Marine-Personal-Craft, Pickup Trucks, Snowmobiles, Sport-Utility-Vehicles, Trailer - **Material:** Carbon Steel - **Finish Type:** GLOSS BLACK POWDER COAT ## Images ![CURT 13240 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XMcSYXp3L.jpg) ![CURT 13240 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61irctAekOL.jpg) ![CURT 13240 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71azQ4CajfL.jpg) ![CURT 13240 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81kJN2E3ZUL.jpg) ![CURT 13240 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qy2l-zIrL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this work for a 2018 Tucson?** A: We have a 2016 same body.

Bike racks, carriers and a dettacheable rear bumber if not in use is a nice touch. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Affordable Easy Install! *by M***A on April 29, 2021* Got this to hook up bike racks or hitch mount cargo racks for road trips. Arrived quickly. Box came beat up and hitch was sticking out the corner, but what do you expect for a heavy metal sharp object in a large empty box. No biggie. The bolts/washers/instructions were very nicely taped to the hitch itself so they wouldn't get lost or fall out of the box. Kudos for that! I remembered a few reviewers stating to lube up the exhaust hangers with WD-40 and after doing so, the two rear most hangers popped right off with minimal effort. I also remembered reviewers stating you needed to remove the trim panels under the bumper on either side, so I popped those off with ease. I did not need to jack up the vehicle. I did this in my flat driveway. The only tools I used were a flathead screwdriver for the plastic trim rivets and a 17mm socket on a 3/4in drive to tighten the hitch mount bolts. I had a piece of old carpet I laid out, laid down on my side with the trailer hitch directly under where it needed to go. I pulled the exhaust tips down a bit with my knee and slid the hitch mount up over the exhaust tips where it rested firmly in place. I secured the drivers side with one bolt, then secured all the bolts in on the passenger side. I then finished putting the remaining bolts in on the driver's side. I slipped the two exhaust hangers back in and popped plastic the trim back in place. The entire thing took less than 20 mins with minimal effort. For those with zero skills and basic tools, you can do this. Don't pay a shop $100's to install one of these things. It's really really easy. ## Frequently Bought Together - CURT 13240 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver, Fits Select Hyundai Tucson, GLOSS BLACK POWDER COAT - CURT 56348 Vehicle-Side Custom 4-Pin Trailer Wiring Harness, Fits Select Hyundai Tucson --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/20631877-curt-13240-class-3-trailer-hitch-2-inch-receiver](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/20631877-curt-13240-class-3-trailer-hitch-2-inch-receiver) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
