Shipping SpecialFully welded vehicle trailer hitch is strong and durable. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. The combination of an e-coat base and a powder coat finish provides excellent rust protection.
Features:
Specs:

Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.
At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

Today on this 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 series we're gonna install part number 75521 from Draw-tite. This will also apply to part number 87430 from hidden hitch. Alright now this is what the hitch looks like when its installed on the truck. Next, we'll give you some measurements that will help you out selecting some accessories. From the top of the receiver opening down to the ground on this truck, its going to be 21 inches and from the center of the hitch pinhole to the edge of the bumper is going to be 2 and 3/8 inches. Now we'll go ahead and show you how the hitch is installed.
Okay first thing we gonna do is remove this bumper bolt right here. We're gonna remove that one and we're gonna install hardware it needs 2 holes, here and here. We're looking at the passenger side its going to be identical to the driver side. So thats it for the frame, now we'll move up to the bumper. There is 2 holes in the bumper that will be used as attachments here, the 2 threaded holes.
We're gonna start by installing the hardware in the frame, we'll be using this block and the carriage bolt, just select this on the inside drop it free. We're down for now in the passenger side lets go over to the driver side and repeat the same process. This point we can go ahead and install the hitch on the bolt we just installed. You definitely wanna get an extra set of hands to help do this. Now we're gonna install our main fasteners at the bumper and at the end of the frame rail, starting with the bumper, we'll push the hitch up into position meet them with this plastic alloy, this one you're gonna install loose so that you can move the hitch around and we'll try to bolt in, and now we have 2 more bolts, they replace the factory bumper bolts.
Until all our hardawre installed you can go ahead and snug the bolts down and then we'll torque them down as specified in the instructions. Okay a few easy steps our hitch is already installed for part number 75521 from Draw-tite.

This is an outstanding hitch, came with everything you need to install it, nothing to purchase at all. Also, it fits very very well. Last but not least is the fact that it is built better than the OEM that came on my 08 Silverado, and this new hitch is rated for more weight / towing capability. Was well packed too - which I always appreciate. Larry10842

Smoothe as silk. Delivery was quick and the installation was quicker. A big plus with me is the hitch was made in the U.S.A.9092
