The CURT 45013 is an adapter that turns a vertical 2-inch receiver tube into a horizontal one, so you can mount a standard ball mount, bike rack or cargo carrier on a vertical hitch setup. It is rated for 5,000 lb gross trailer weight and 500 lb tongue weight, which covers light trailers and most hitch-mounted accessories. It is built from CNC-formed, robotically welded steel with a gloss black powder coat. It suits owners of vertical-receiver vehicles, such as some vans and specialty bumpers, who need a conventional horizontal mount. Rivals in this niche are few, and this one is a simple steel adapter rather than a full adjustable drop hitch.
