When you’re towing or hauling, you want peace of mind knowing your hitch can handle the job. This Curt Class IV trailer hitch receiver is rated for 10,000 lbs gross trailer weight and 1,000 lbs tongue weight. When used with weight distribution, it supports up to 12,000 lbs GTW and 1,200 lbs tongue weight. The 2" x 2" receiver opening works with most common towing accessories, so you’re set up for serious work or play without worrying about capacity.
This hitch is precision-welded from sturdy square-tube steel for maximum strength and a solid feel under load. The gloss black powder coat sits over a protective base layer to resist rust and corrosion from road salt or weather exposure. The result is a durable finish that keeps the hitch looking sharp and performing reliably through years of towing.
You don’t need a lift or special tools to get this hitch installed. It bolts directly to the vehicle’s frame using the included hardware kit—no welding required. The holes line up cleanly for a quick fit, and everything you need comes in the box along with clear instructions. For many folks, that means a smooth DIY install right in the driveway using basic hand tools.
The concealed cross tube keeps most of the hitch tucked out of sight for a factory-style appearance. You get the high towing performance of a Class IV without extra bulk hanging below the bumper. It’s a strong, functional setup that doesn’t dominate the rear view of your vehicle once installed.

I installed the Curt C14332 on an 03 GMC 2500 (not a HD) extended cab short box, it fit great, would do the item again. I was missing a few of the fasteners, but with the help of Yvonne from customer service I received the replacements in 4-5 days
The hitch still looks as great as it did the day that I installed it. It’s been around a year now, and it’s been working great for when I’ve needed it. It’s been used for hauling cars, wood, and ATVs.
etrailers had the best deal when I bought this, they shipped everything quickly, and their customer care service is awesome!
Nice hitch, the finish looks like it will stand up to the Michigan/Ohio winters I put my truck through better than the stock hitch. Super easy installation, it went on with no problems in about 30 minutes. With the Hopkins wiring connector - which also went on quickly, plugs right into the stock trailer wiring hitch - it's a clean installation, better than stock.
The Hitch receiver is exactly as depicted in the photos which is what I had wanted. Very difficult to find this Category IV hitch. Thankfully etrailer had it! A great price too.
Have not yet installed it but suspect it will go on fine based on the shape and bolt pattern. Also in the Q&A page was another person with exactly the same question I had about fit for a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500HD. Construction is what I wanted, heavy duty steel, all welded, and paint looks like it will hold up. Shipping package was very good, a competitor shipped a hitch to me that had no packaging and it was scratched and minor damage......But etrailer had a nice box and proper packaging inside. This will serve for hauling our 2 horse trailer and I needed a little extra tongue weight and GTW capability.
It has been a year now and It's perfect. If your thinking about which brand to purchase this has been a great hitch. I pull alot of different trailers including a 20' with a backhoe on it and this has been perfect.
Looks great can't wait to bolt to truck and try it out when all this rain stops and things dry out .
Struggled some to get the bolt holes to line up. One bracket was bent toward the center as if it had been dropped. Took about 45 minutes of additional work that would not have been necessary. Once I got over that frustration, I really like the hitch. Solid construction at a good price, fast shipping. Would reccommend to others.
Has been a solid unit and I have zero complaints. Ordered, shipped, and arrived when expected. I’ve been pulling my 7500 lb boat and trailer with no problems. Also aesthetically pleasing - it ticks inside and is not your grandfather’s hitch that is clearly seen from down the street. Would buy again for another truck.
Ordered Monday, received Wednesday. Hitch came in heavy duty box but still punched through and had a hole in it. Hitch receiver was wrapped and protected where it punched through, so no damage.
Perfect for for my 2005 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab 1500HD. The existing hitch was heavily rusted and came out easily.
Installation was very easy and instructions were spot on and accurate.
Very thick steel and heavy duty. I wish they made one that extends further on the frame of the suburbans because these frames have a weak point that will bend. However that's really only if you overload your rig severely. This hitch does extend several inches over the frame vs the stock unit. Overall this hitch is monstrous and your truck will rust in half far before this hitch fails. Very easy to install, great support from both curt and etrailer with technical questions and product support. I know first hand that curt will take care of any missing hardware from shipping carelessness etrailer was able to get this shipped and delivered within days, just in time to install for a vacation we were taking. Very much appreciated the knowledge and fast service. I regularly tow an 8500# camper and this hitch gives much better confidence than the stocker. You'll have to add a mount for the wire plug but it isn't a big deal with a couple tap in rivets or can be spot welded like I did. Overall very satisfied with this American made product.
We are really happy with our purchase. The hitch performs as advertised. It was missing a couple small parts when it arrived, however, etrailer's OUTSTANDING customer service immediately shipped us the tiny parts needed. Thank you. Will definitely check here for trailering needs because of excellent product, good prices, and outstanding service.
I’ve purchased multiple items from etrailer and their products and customer service are always excellent. The class IV hitch and new 7-way plug arrived in four days and fit perfectly. I’ll definitely use them again.

Excellent product. It pulls a tandem axle trailer every day and has never had an issue.
I recently ordered a receiver hitch to replace my older, (rusted), one. Two of the bolt holes did not line up with the bottom of the bumper on my '03 Silverado. Got the other six in fine but the two in the bottom of the bumper are about 3/4" too far forward, and there is no way to get them in without bending the bracket on the hitch or loosening the entire bumper to move rearward. Shipped fast, excellent looking, heavy duty item. That's why I gave it a "good."

Great. Good, heavy duty product.
Bought this trailer hitch to replace the original one that came with the truck, to upgrade to a class IV from OEM class III.
All hardware except a mounting plate for the trailer wiring were included.
The installation was a simple bolt-on with all nuts, bolts, brackets of higher quality than the OEM hitch. Perfect fit no re-drilling required. After a year of use still looks like new, the powder coat is holding fine to New England sand and salt road conditions.

Still very happy with this hitch, now on second year and looks like new almost. No issues of any sort to highlight.
Doing good so far.
Everything came as ordered, Quality of everything that’s very good. This will be my go to place for anything I need for a trailer
Very heavy duty construction. Installation required some persuasion with a pry bar to get the holes to line up, likely due to manufacturing variability, but slowly tightening all of the hardware along with prying it into place got it aligned. I was unable to utilize the conical washers/fasteners because the fastener threads were too large for the washer inside diameter, so I just reused the old hardware for those two mounting locations. Both are 10.9 grade so it shouldn’t be a problem. Overall, deducting 1 star for QC.

Sorry to hear about the alignment and washer issues, but we're glad you were able to get everything installed. Thanks again for the feedback, and we hope it gives you years of reliable service!
very good quality and easy to install. the holes for the bumper are 2 inches lower but i used a longer bolt and have been pulling trailers since
Easy install. A lot heavier than the stock hitch and looks great.

A year later, still satisfied. A nice, well built hitch that works exactly as expected.
Looks great!! Installed by myself took about an hour, had exhaust in my way.
I bent the stock hitch on my 03 Silverado. Ordered a C14332 it arrived in a few days. Straight forward installation. Much heavy duty than the stock round tube hitch. The reciever opening is approximately an inch higher the the original hitch.
The service was great and the install on my 2006 Chev Pickup was a piece of cake. It fit like a glove. I went from the original class 3 (??? Maybe even a class 2) hitch to a class 4 because the old one from the factory started to wear out in the lock pin area so we had movement back and forth when we started up. The new one from etrailer was twice the thickness then the old one. I also purchased a new lock pin since my old locking pin was also worn where it went thru the hitch and receiver.
Very happy and it only took my friend and I 1 hour to install using air tools..
Just pulled tent trailer this Easter weekend. Hitch and wiring hook up did its job. I like how hitch design in hidden, so only receiver and wiring socket is visible on my silverado chevy pickup. Thanks
Installed without much frustration on my 2006 Chevy 1500 long bed single cab. Looks clean as the bulk of the receiver is hidden behind the bumper. I used the HM40975 4/7 pin combo trailer connector with this and used self tappers to attach it directly to the receiver frame. Meets my needs for occasionally pulling a utility trailer with a lawnmower or atv for about a year now. Also pulled a couple heavy loads of firewood on a 16 ft tandem axle with no issues.
Very fast shipping. Nice tow hitch with hardware. Very good service.
