Today on our 2011 Volvo XC60, we will be installing the Curt trailer hitch receiver in a class
3 with a 2-inch opening on the receiver, part number 13268. Heres what the hitch looks like
installed on our vehicle. Now we will go ahead and give you a couple of measurements in helping
you choose some accessories for your hitch, such as a ball mount, a bicycle rack, or a
cargo carrier. From the center of the hitch-pin hole to the outer most edge of the bumper
is approximately 7 inches. From the top of the opening in the receiver to the ground
is approximately 13 and inches. Lets go ahead and install our hitch. We will begin here
by removing the rubber isolator from each side of the muffler. To do this we use a little
bit of spray lubricant
and a
large
pry bar, to work
the rubber isolator off
of the metal hanger.
