Hitch question

Post by haze »

My 92 GS came with a big bolt on hitch bar. I have no use for it, so im cleaning it up and selling it..

Question for when i go to sell it is... what other cars would these fit? Is it only 92-95 MX3's as this CURT site says?

this is exactly what mine looks like minus the paint job 8)

Interesting, didn't know you could get one for mx-3. Chances are it's custom made so it probably won't fit another car unless you fabricate it to fit another car. You could tow a jet ski with mx3 or small portable trailer so your dog could sleep in one lol

I may be interested in it depending how much you want for it. Can you get a couple pictures of it and how it mounts to the car? I'm curious.

Hey Dan...pssst...he's asking if it will fit other cars, not selling it in this post.

Pssst, he said, "My 92 GS came with a big bolt on hitch bar. I have no use for it, so im cleaning it up and selling it.."
Gee sounds like a sales pitch to me sooooo, I was just making sure he understood the rules of the forum.
Oh ya, low and behold looks like another member thought he was selling as well.

Stop being a sourpuss Dan haha, he just said he was planning on selling it, not that he is selling it currently with a price and everything.

Sorry admin. This is a general mx-3 question not a sale post.

I'm asking if anyone knows what other cars it would fit so that when i'm ready to sell it I can market it correctly. Don't think i'd want to bother shipping it anyway, its big.

General knowledge on how the hitch is mounted, there are 2 mounting brackets at the top, so drill through your trunk, and run some bolts through. mine included 2 small plates for the top side as well.

Thanks.

If you go to this site, http://www.thehitchstore.com/?gclid=COb ... Mgod93sA7A they will show you what cars this hitch will fit. Thehitchstore sells Curt hitches. Very good people to deal with I might add.

It will fit the MX3 only. Mazda did sell a hitch for the MX3 but they were just aftermarket re-branded anyways and a dealer only option. I have a BG hitch that I have had to modify to get it to fit the MX chassis as the exhaust cutouts are in a completely different location. Other than the exhaust it would fit a 323, protege, or escort. They are only rated for about 700lbs tongue weight.
