Pick your Pacifica year
Each year page has the hitch, the harness and the ball mount that go together, with the price of each.
Class 2 or Class 3 on a Pacifica?
Class 2 is the lighter one, with a 1-1/4 inch receiver and 3,500 lb of trailer. It's plenty for a bike rack, a cargo carrier or a light utility trailer. Class 3 moves you to a 2-inch receiver and 4,000 lb, which is what you want for a bike rack, a cargo carrier, a utility trailer or a small boat, and it takes the common 2-inch racks and carriers without an adapter. Either way the Pacifica's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling, and the lower number wins.
CURT parts for the Chrysler Pacifica
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 55381 ($54.86 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Pacifica's factory connector for 2004 through 2008. No cutting, no scotch-locks. Other years have their own harness; the year page shows the right one.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver: CURT 45836 ($41.70 CAD) drops straight into a 2-inch receiver. Pick the drop or rise that keeps the trailer level, and match the ball to the coupler. The ball mount guide covers both in two minutes.
Canadian winters eat hitch hardware. Salt and brine get into the receiver and the trailer plug, so a smear of grease on the pin, a cap on the receiver and a rinse under the bumper in spring keep a CURT hitch looking new for years. The rust and salt care guide has the full routine.
Chrysler Pacifica hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Chrysler Pacifica?
It depends on the year. CURT 13383 is the newest, for 2017 through 2027, and the table above matches every other year to its part. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on a Pacifica with this hitch?
Yes. The 2-inch receiver takes any 2-inch rack, and a loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (400 lb on CURT 13383), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is well inside the limit.
Can I install the hitch myself?
Most owners do. CURT rates CURT 13383 a novice install, about 45 minutes with hand tools and a jack. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can a Pacifica tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated from 3,500 lb to 4,000 lb depending on the part, but the Pacifica's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
