Engineered with CNC precision and robotic welding, it offers a durable, reliable, and easy-to-install solution for versatile towing needs, backed by a limited lifetime warranty. ## Description CURT hitch adapters can be used for many different purposes when hitching up a trailer. 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 CURT reducer sleeve adapter converts a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" receiver tube opening to a 2" x 2" opening. It installs easily and is compatible with virtually any 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" hitch. Its gross trailer weight capacity and tongue weight capacity are limited to the hitch. 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 black carbide powder coat finish to ensure it has excellent rust, chip and UV resistance. Review: Solid quality, works just as intended. - I don't know why some folks complain about this adapter sleeve. Obviously hitches may vary in tolerances among different manufacturers and this sleeve will not fit exactly the way they want it to with every single application. I'm using this on my Ford Super Duty. With the holes lined up it sticks out about an inch past the end of the receiver tube, and there is a very small amount of wiggling, but I ain't mad about it. And I appreciate the two ears that prevent it from sliding too far into the tube. Another quality product from CURT Manufacturing.

Have drove 12 hours 1 way, no cracking/wear or issues. For price you can’t beat it, do not buy a Chinese knock off for hauling. Purchase peace of mind especially for this price. ## Frequently Bought Together - CURT 45405 Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter Reducer Sleeve, 2-1/2 to 2-Inch, Carbide Black Powder Coat - Rhino USA Trailer Hitch Pin (2.5 Inch) Patented 5/8" Locking Receiver Hitch Pins for Class V Hitches - Weatherproof Anti-Theft Lockable Pin with Debris Protection - Used to Tow Truck, Boat, Bike-Black - TOPTOW 64028HP Trailer Hitch Adapter 2-1/2" to 2" Hitch Reducer Sleeve Carbon Steel, 5/8 inch Pin & Clip Included --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/271327667-45405-trailer-hitch-receiver-adapter-reducer-sleeve-2-1-2](https://www.desertcart.us/products/271327667-45405-trailer-hitch-receiver-adapter-reducer-sleeve-2-1-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-03*
