Features to know about

Installs Without Cutting or Splicing: Plug-In T-Connector Design

This Curt T-Connector plugs in line with the vehicle’s tail light wiring, so there’s no need to cut or splice individual wires. It connects behind the rear interior trim panels using existing plugs, giving you a clean, factory-style install. Everything snaps together securely for reliable performance and a fast setup.

Simplifies Trailer Wiring: 4-Pole Flat Connector Ready to Use

Once installed, the harness provides a standard 4-flat trailer connector that powers running lights, turn signals, and brake lights. It’s ready for small trailers, utility haulers, or light towing accessories that use a 4-way plug. This makes it easy to hook up and go without extra adapters or custom wiring.

Reliable Ground Connection: Internally Grounded System

You don’t have to attach a separate ground wire—the harness is internally grounded within the wiring assembly. That means fewer steps and fewer potential connection points to fail over time. Just plug it in, route the 4-flat lead out near the hitch, and it’s ready for use.

Perfect Starting Point for Upgrades: Works with 7-Way Conversions

For setups that need a brake controller or charging line later on, this 4-way is the right place to start. You can easily convert it into a 7-way using an adapter kit when you’re ready for heavier trailers or more advanced towing gear. It’s a flexible foundation for any future towing needs.

Super fast and parts were packed great, and it was free shipping.

The wiring kit was the perfict fit for my van. Just plug and play. eTrailer came through for me again. Prompt service with quality products.



by:

The instructions were a bit confusing and took me a minute to figure it out. Once I stopped looking at the pictures, nice but not informative enough, and looked at the harness and tail light assemblies, I figured it out pretty quick.

It all snapped together and worked great. I would give it 5 starts if the instructions were a bit more clear.

Over all, I'll order again when I am ready to install one for my truck.



by:

Never bought or installed a towing hitch before. I contacted etrailer on the recommendation of a friend. Nik M at etrailer was thoroughly professional and competent in helping me select the correct assy's required to complete the project. Shipping was fast and installation was very straight forward. I had some minor technical questions and they were handled in a timely and satisfactory manner. Excellent experience and would highly recommend etrailer. I have another towing hitch project in mind and I will be calling them about it.

  • Parts Needed to Add 4-way and 7-Way to 1999 Chevy Express 3500
    Hey Bill! I can definitely get you the part numbers. Do you know if he has the factory tow package? That isn't something I can look up using the VIN number. If he does, you can use the Replacement OEM Tow Package Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118240. If he does not, you will need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55335. Honestly, based on what we have seen lately I would say to install this wiring harness even if he...

  • Trailer Wiring Connector for 1999 Chevy Express Van
    Attempting to wire a 4 pole like the # 18002 into the taillight system of your 1999 Express won't work, as you've found. The 1999 Express uses what is referred to as a separate or a 3 wire taillight system, where the running lights, turn signals and brake lights are carried on 3 different circuits. If your van had a 2 wire system, where the running lights were on one circuit and the turn signals and brake lamps were combined on the same circuit, the # 18002 would've worked fine, but since...

  • Dimensions of Trailer Hitch for 1997 GMC Savana Van
    The etrailer.com Trailer Hitch # E98861 will fit your 1997 GMC Savana so long as it is a cargo or passenger van model; if you take a look at the photo of the dimensions of this hitch you can see that the bolt holes are also 40" apart like you said yours were. I have added a link to a video of a similar hitch, the Curt # 14090, being installed on a '97 GMC Savana which you can use as a guide for your installation. For wiring which will give you a 4-way connector and allow you to power...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 1997 Chevrolet Express Conversion Van
    The trailer hitch I recommend for a 1997 Chevrolet Express Van is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98861 which should be a direct bolt-on fit though keep in mind it is designed to be used with a standard rear bumper. This trailer hitch has a 10,000 lb gross trailer weight rating and 1,000 lb tongue weight rating which will be plenty. If you don't already have a trailer connector, you'll need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C55335 which is plug-n-play then...

  • Where Does the Trailer Wiring Harness Install on a 1996 GMC Savana Van
    You are correct. The Curt wiring harness, # C55335, plugs in line with the tail light wiring and you will not have to splice into the wires at all. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view. Models that originally came with a 4-Way from the factory but need a replacement would use a different harness, # 118240. I have included a link to a video that shows how this harness installs.

  • Do I Need to Ground Wiring Harness C55335 On A Chevy Express Van
    I contacted the tech at Curt and the wiring harness part # C55335 is internally grounded inside the wiring harness. There is not a need to ground the white wire separately because it is built into the wiring harness. The instructions Curt sent were universal instructions. You can just plug into the vehicle's wiring behind the driver's side and passenger's-side rear interior trim panels and it works.

  • Installing 4-Pole Trailer Connector on 1992 GMC Safari
    At one time, I believe there was a plug and play-type connector available, but due to the age of the vehicle and low demand, our suppliers no longer have them available. The lighting system of the first generation Safari is pretty simple. You can use our hardwire kit, part # 18252. Use the included circuit tester to find the correct functions behind the vehicle tail lights. Connect the white wire to a good ground, the brown wire to the tail light circuit, the yellow wire to the left turn...

  • 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness For 1999 Chevy Express Van
    We do have a 4-way that fits your 1999 Chevy Express van, but the # 118377 is not a fit. Instead, the correct one will depend on if you need to replace your factory 4-way or if your van did not have a 4-way at all and you want to install one: - Replace Factory 4-Way: Replacement OEM Tow Package Wiring Harness # 118240 - Install 4-Way: T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C55335

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Vehicle Trailer Wiring for a 1997 Chevy Express Van
    The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75189 is confirmed to fit your 1997 Chevrolet Express Van. Since it sounds like you don't have the factory tow package you will want to go with the Curt T-Connector # C55335 for wiring. If your Van happened to have the factory tow package then you will use part # 118240 instead. If you just need the 4-Pole connector then I recommend also installing the Mounting Bracket 4-Pole Flat # 18144 along with the No-Drill Bracket # C57202 for a quick...

  • 7-Way and Brake Controller Recommendation for a 1998 Chevy Express Van
    You will need to start with a 4-way on your 1998 Chevy Express Van. For that you would want the # C55335 that you referenced. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7 and extension part # 10-2-1 since you have a longer vehicle. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well. For a brake controller I would...

  • 4-Way Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 1998 GMC Savana
    Is there any trailer wiring at the rear of your vehicle? Most likely you wouldn't be looking for trailer wiring if your vehicle already had a 4-way as that is what the part # C55335 is designed to provide. This harness is a fit for your 1998 GMC Savana and will work well for you. The great thing about this harness is that even if your vehicle did have the factory 4-way this would still fit your vehicle and work perfectly fine. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
