Features to know about

Haul More Without the Hassle: Class III 2" Hitch with 6,000 lbs GTW

This Curt hitch gives you the strength and stability to tow small campers, boats, or utility trailers with confidence. Rated for a maximum gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs and a tongue weight of 600 lbs, it’s built for real towing needs—not just the occasional trip. The 2" x 2" receiver works with most ball mounts, bike racks, and cargo carriers so you can make the most out of your vehicle’s hauling potential.

Simplify Your Install: Bolt-On Design, No Welding Needed

You don’t need a lift or a welder to get this hitch on your vehicle. The fully welded receiver bolts right onto the frame using a complete hardware kit and clear instructions. Everything lines up where it should so you can handle the job yourself with basic tools. The precision, robotic welds ensure strength and a good fit every time.

Built to Last Through Every Tow: Powder-Coated Steel Construction

A gloss black powder coat finish over a protective base coat keeps rust and corrosion in check, even after years of exposure. The round-tube design gives it a clean, finished look under the bumper while adding rigidity where it counts. It’s tough enough for daily use and protected well enough to stay that way season after season.

Ready for Any Setup: Works with Ball Mounts and Accessories

Whether you’re loading up bikes for the weekend or attaching a cargo tray for extra gear, this hitch adapts easily to whatever you’re hauling. Ball mount, pin, and clip are sold separately so you can choose exactly what fits your setup best—but the receiver is ready to handle it all once it’s bolted up.

The welds were horrible on the actual receiver tube they were almost an inch tall and look like when someone tries to cover up porosity instead of grinding it out and rewelding it properly but it all fit and bolted up properly and looks good very good parts

Being in South Florida area close to the ocean saltwater has not affected this hitch at all very little rust on the receiving part of it strictly from Hitch going in and out easy six bolt installation three bolts on each side highly recommend ordering the trailer wiring kit the police pursuit vehicle does have the factory wiring harness tucked up behind the rear bumper easy install gives you both 7-way and four-way. Hitch does not sit lower than tailpipe therefore no worries about being too low to the ground. Excellent addition to anyone who owns a police pursuit Tahoe because they do not come with the hitch and its been working great for towing jet skis four wheelers golf carts and ATVs Into the Woods and Lake highly recommended super fast shipping great job etrailer



by:

This hitch came in quickly and was super nice and easy to install. The website, pictures and instructional video was very helpful and customer service was top notch! Thanks for the great service!



by:

was very easy to install by myself and a hydraulic jack. with 2 people it would take about 15 minutes.



by:

Super fast shipping and a great price.

  • Replacement for 2013 Chevy Tahoe Factory Hitch
    Hey Daniel! The only hitch we have for a 2013 Chevy Tahoe is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13161 and it's for a Tahoe with the Police Package. I believe you're referring to the hitch that has the receiver located in the cutout in the center of the bumper. This is only available as an OEM so you'll need to reach out to a GM parts dealer for an exact replacement. What do you plan on using the hitch for?

  • Trailer Hitch and Trailer Wiring Harness Recommended for 2013 Chevy Tahoe Police Package Vehicle
    The Curt Class III hitch, part # C13161 is indeed a fit for a 2013 Chevy Tahoe PPV (Police Package Vehicle). You can see it being installed on a 2012 St. Charles County Police PPV Tahoe by clicking the provided link. The tow package harness is already in place up above the spare tire. You'll just need to unclip it, and plug it in to a connector like the # HM40975. If your Tahoe doesn't have the knockout in the panel under the license plate, you can install the connector to the hitch crossbar...

  • Dimensions of the Curt Trailer Hitch part # C13161
    I attached a picture that has basically every dimension of the Curt hitch part # C13161. It will hang down 8.28 inches from the mounting surface. From the rear mounting flange to the hitch opening it measures 15-3/4 inches.

  • Does Curt Hitch C13161 Fit 2014 Chevy PPV Tahoes Only?
    I actually own a 2015 Chevy PPV so I can help with some insight into the hitch fit of the C13161. So the hitch does fit both the PPV and the Tahoe but the reason you might see that it's only listed for the PPV is because the PPV models don't have a factory hitch whereas all Tahoe models have the factory hitch built into the rear bumper beam. Since all models of the Tahoe have the factory hitch it's not likely someone would install an aftermarket one like the Curt # C13161. I actually installed...

  • Trailer Hitch for Towing with a 2012 Chevy Tahoe
    The only trailer hitch that was designed for your 2012 Chevy Tahoe is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13161. The Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41947 is a pretty big hitch that is designed for a 2012 Chevy Silverado 3500 cab and chassis model which is pretty different to what you have. With that being said, it looks like your Tahoe has a towing capacity range of 5,200 lbs - 6,000 lbs so since the Curt is rated for a max of 6,000 lbs you will be able to tow with your Tahoe to it's...
