Ford Transit Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)

Shopping a trailer hitch for a Ford Transit in Canada? Start with the van on the door sticker — Transit 150, 250, or 350, Transit Connect, or E-Transit — then pick the CURT card that matches that body. We stock a deep Transit shelf today: CURT 13193 Class 3 and CURT 14012 Class 4 for the big van, plus Connect paths and a live four-flat harness for the single-rear-wheel Transit and E-Transit years on the card.

Built for Canadian Transit owners and shops. Free shipping on CURT towing gear from Lots of Parts when the SKU is live on this store. New to hitch shopping? Start with the buying guide, how to choose a hitch, and what hitch class do I need. Prefer the full index? Open the towing guides hub.

How to Select a Trailer Hitch

CURT · Hitch class basics

Year landers Live Transit 150, Connect, E-Transit, and many 250 and 350 hitch pages — see jumps below.

Jump to your Transit year

Primary year jumps for Transit 150, Transit Connect, and E-Transit. We also publish many Transit 250 and Transit 350 hitch landers for the same window — open the lander that matches the badge on your van.

These are the Ford Transit hitch year pages we publish today for the jumps above. Confirm the product-card years before you buy. We do not invent missing landers — for example a 2024 E-Transit lander is not on this list.

Honest gaps and shopper notes

Class 3 versus Class 4

13193 or 14012

Both fit the big Transit on overlapping years. The Class 4 card is not a license to ignore Ford published tow and tongue limits.

Connect is separate

Do not mix Connect SKUs

Transit Connect uses 13167, 13076, or 12123 — not the big-van 13193 or 14012 cards.

Wiring note

Single rear wheels

56327 calls out single rear wheels on the Transit and E-Transit application. Dual-rear setups need an honest lights plan.

Door sticker

Hitch rating is not the tow limit

The number on the CURT card does not rewrite Ford published tow and tongue limits for your wheelbase and GVWR.

Step 1Read the door sticker

Model, year, and tow limit come before any CURT SKU.

Step 2Open your lander

Use the Transit year pages above when they match.

Step 3Pick Class 3 or Class 4

13193 versus 14012 on the big van, or a Connect card.

Step 4Plan lights

56327 or 56218 when your van matches the harness card.
