This trailer hitch fit perfect on my 2022 Chevy 1500 Silverado.
I did confirm with a /chevy dealer that the frame on a 2022 Silverado did not change from a 2021 prior to purchasing this hitch.
etrailer gave very good service at a good price! I couldn’t believe how fast this front hitch for my 2021 Silverado was at my door. It was so easy to install,45 minutes in my driveway, with no issues. Great step by step instructions. I elected to just take the lower valance off and probably leave it off instead of cutting a hole in it, at least for now. This is my third truck that I have had with a front hitch on it and it is so nice for backing my pontoon boat or my 28’ enclosed snowmobile trailer into difficult places! As long as I have a trailer I would not be without a front hitch on my truck. Some people don’t understand “why a front hitch?” They have never used one and if they did they would know and understand why. Thank You etrailer.com
Installed on my 2020 Silverado in less than an hour. This is my 3rd hitch from E-Trailer. Fast delivery.
Tip: After installing the 7/16 hex flange nuts, I used washers between the 2nd 7/16 nuts to protect the holes in the skid plate.
Also purchased trim for the air dam cut out for a finished look. Heated with hot air gun to make it more plyable.
Solid, well built hitch - My second - new truck. Used to push boat around a corner in to garage.
Installed on my 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali. Shipping box was destroyed & poorly packed. Instructions were straightforward. Install took 1 1/2 hrs. I only trimmed the thin trim without cutting the skid plate. The receiver pushes up on the skid plate slightly, but I didn’t want to cut it. Should work great for my E-bikes when pulling the RV.
Installation took about 1.5 hours. Product arrived on time and installed as advertised in directions.
Great shipping time even with getting a slight delay in Earth City. Hitch arrived in excellent condition. As have all my E Trailer orders,wonderful experience from start to finish.
Great deal, fast shipping. I am 65 years old, bad knees, and I put it in by myself. If I can do it, so can you. Save yourself the $200 install fee. It’s easy.

Game changer, making a sharp 90 turn into my storage spot is a no brainer. Super easy, no back and forth moves.
I’d give it 5 stars if the instructions were correct. This model does NOT require trimming of the plastic as the instructions say. Don’t do it. I’ll attach pics. The bumper brackets must be removed in order to get it to fit. That’s not mentioned in the instructions but is on other comments. It’s not hard. It really helps to have two people when lifting and bolting. A small impact wrench is nice too.

I’ve actually stopped using this and went to a full brushguard. It worked well. It does reduce the angle of inclination on approach when off roading. It was very strong though and did well winching.
Received my Curt Front Mount Hitch in a big box with substantial amount of scars and holes in the box. Upon opening the hitch was literally just sitting in there with the little bag of install parts Packing tapped to the hitch. No Bracing, Packing Insulation or padding whatsoever. The hitch was fairly scared up but didn't look like there was any real damage. So I re-painted the unit and went ahead and used it. The instructions are pretty vague. Especially when it comes to cutting your lower Air Deflector. I will likely have to replace that piece when I sell my truck since figuring out that the 3" X 2.15" listed in the instructions is from the bottom. The way it was described I thought it poked through the Air Deflector.. soon learned I was wrong and ended up cutting the deflector way more than needed. Shame the instructions weren't better! Once installed it fit and works great.
The box came damaged, but no big deal. Hard to hurt this. My suggestion to add to the instructions are to also have an 18MM end wrench to go with the 18 MM socket, as the passenger's side bolt on the toe hooks needs a back up to loose. My impact drill/sockets helped a lot. The instructionss for the cut out are a little hard to follow, but I just cut a chunk out at the centerline 3" wide by 2.5" into the back of the air dam and it worked great. You have to get the passenger's side bolt where you removed the nut backed out until it's flush with the frame to get it in place on both sides. It took me a lot longer, but most of the time was lost because I didn't have an 18MM end wrencch, which I ended up going and getting. Electric sawzall worked great for cutting the air dam, and you could probably force the thing into place without cutting this. 2021 GMC Denali PU
A good solid product. I used it for the front of my 2020 Chevy Silverado trailboss for a custom surf fishing rack I built to carry a cooler and rods. Mounted up easy and will never be the weak point for my set-up. Good product.
Going to transport Bicycles with this hitch. Fit good and was not very hard to install. This is my second front mount hitch that I have installed from Curt. Glad there is no drilling involved to install.
Very simple install. Go to the online instructions if you want decent pictures but the diagram in the instructions was super helpful. I will say that if you have a trail boss or AT4 you will need to remove two bumper bracket guards. One 18mm bolt and one 10mm bolt holds the guards on. They will not be put back on after the hitch is installed. It took me an hour of trying to fit this thing to figure that out. Then I read it in several reviews and also noticed they were not present in the pics of the installation instructions.
The hitch appears to good and it looks like the installation kit was taped to the hitch
BUT the shipping box was destroyed and poorly taped back together
This was fairly easy to install in just over an hour, without help. Bolted to factory bolts with no drilling. Fit truck and frame perfectly. Works great for my home plow.
Muche easier and quicker install on my 2020 GMC Sierra Doublecab. As a note, i didn't cut the front airdam. I removed the bottom piece (which had been chewed up a little bit by higher curbs and then was able to just slightly push up the air dam. My wife thought you couldn't even notice and certainly easier than cutting (because you can never put it back LOL).
Overall a quick install that went very easy. Very satisfied.
Super fast shipping,fair price,using the front hitch for a cargo rack for extra storage on a pick up with a slide in camper.
Fairly simple install and the included instructions were accurate. etrailer.com processed and shipped the order quickly. Overall very happy with my purchase.
Took 3 hours to install , hot day, couple mistakes, instructions could have been more detailed, seems to be reasonably strong- time will tell
For a business that is based on shipping everything they need to learn how to package stuff. Everything I received from a trailer comes damaged at this point.
The box containing the hitch was in horrible condition which worried me a little. However the hitch was fine and fit perfectly. Excellent product!
Product fit and installed as indicated; works great for my minimal plowing needs.
Nice looking hitch, however the instructions could be improved and the pictures depicting the instructions were almost unable to view.
For what the hitch costs how about some understandable color pics. The reciver is very low @8" off the ground on my 4wd. Could be re designed for more ground clearance. I'm sure ill have problems with the clearance issue

I recommend taking a look at the instruction details link on the product page as this will have colored pictures to reference. I checked and we do not currently offer a hitch that would give higher ground clearance for the 2020 Chevy Silverado 2020.
