Whether a ball mount shank is too small or too large to fit into a receiver tube, a CURT adapter can make up the difference. Our adapters are built with exceptional strength and designed to be precisely fitted for their application. We carry trailer hitch adapters to accommodate both receiver tube openings and shanks of 1-1/4", 2" and 2-1/2" dimensions. CURT adapters also come in various lengths to allow more clearance for a cargo carrier, bike rake or spare tire. This specialized CURT receiver adapter converts a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" receiver tube opening to a 2" x 2" opening. It offers a gross trailer weight capacity of 4,500 lbs. and a tongue weight capacity of 450 lbs., and when combined with a weight distribution hitch, it offers 6,000 lbs. GTW and 600 lbs. TW. It also has the option to be cut down from its 34" length to 24", increasing its weight carrying capacity to 6,000 lbs. and its tongue weight to 600 lbs. When combined with a weight distribution hitch, the 24" length maxes out at 8,000 lbs. GTW and 800 lbs. TW. This hitch adapter also comes with integrated safety chain loops and an electrical bracket. All CURT adapters are constructed using our quality manufacturing processes. We CNC-form each unit, weld it together using advanced robotic systems and then mechanically descale every surface to make each adapter smooth to accept a finishing coat. To finish off this adapter, we give it a durable gloss black powder coat finish to ensure it has excellent rust, chip and UV resistance. ## Features - Adapts a 2-1/2" trailer hitch receiver tube opening to fit a 2" shank - Extends receiver tube by 24" or 34" for added clearance - Can be cut down from 34" to 24" - Features integrated safety chain loops and an electrical bracket - Protected by a durable powder coat finish ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00537ESCQ | | Best Sellers Rank | #255,045 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #670 in Towing Hitch Receivers | | Brand | CURT | | Brand Name | CURT | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Trailer | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 339 Reviews | | Finish Type | Gloss, Powder-Coated | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00612314450480 | | Included Components | Receiver Adapter | | Item Type Name | 2-1/2-Inch to 2-Inch, 34-Inch Extension, 4,500 lbs. | | Item Weight | 0.27 g | | Manufacturer | Curt Manufacturing | | Manufacturer Part Number | 45048 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited Lifetime Warranty (One-Year Finish, One-Ye | | Material | Carbon Steel | | Material Type | Carbon Steel | | Model Number | 45048 | | Number of Items | 1 | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | 45048 | | Pull Force | 4500 pounds | | UPC | 612314450480 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | Trailer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** CURT - **Finish Type:** Gloss, Powder-Coated - **Item Weight:** 0.27 g - **Material:** Carbon Steel - **Vehicle Service Type:** Trailer ## Images ![CURT 45048 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, 34-in Extension, 4,500 lbs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Fr6QqfJHL.jpg) ![CURT 45048 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, 34-in Extension, 4,500 lbs - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61CK6YtLtQL.jpg) ![CURT 45048 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, 34-in Extension, 4,500 lbs - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71eXKQGwoNL.jpg) ![CURT 45048 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, 34-in Extension, 4,500 lbs - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZJxag6V6L.jpg) ![CURT 45048 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, 34-in Extension, 4,500 lbs - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61fjKZVLBtL.jpg) ## Frequently Bought Together - CURT 45048 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, 34-In Extension, 4,500 lbs , Black - True Mods 3ft 7-Way Trailer Plug Wiring Harness [7-Pin Trailer Cord Extension Wire Cable] [Gooseneck Hitch Extender] [Plug-N-Play] [10-14AWG] 7 Prong Trailer Tow Wiring Connector for RV - Nilight 7 Way Trailer Plug Y Pigtail Splitter Double Brasse 7 Pin Female to Dual Male Trailer Plug Round Blade Connector for Connecting Slide in Truck Camper and Trailer Y Splitter --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/6279868-curt-45048-trailer-hitch-receiver-adapter-reducer-2-1-2](https://www.desertcart.no/products/6279868-curt-45048-trailer-hitch-receiver-adapter-reducer-2-1-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-17*
