• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1989 Chevy K1500
  The Curt 3-Piece Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15511 will fit a 1989 Chevy K1500 if it's the cab and chassis model. Since you have a pickup we need to find a different hitch. If your Chevy has the standard or step bumper then I recommend checking out the etrailer hitches; part # e88AR if you have a crew cab or part # e29KR if you don't have a crew cab. These are lower capacities than the Curt hitch you currently have but it matches more closely to what your truck is really capable of pulling. If...

• Westin Bumper Brackets For A 1966 Ford F-250
  Hi Dustin, nice truck! While we definitely have a hitch that will fit your 1966 Ford F-250, the brackets for the Westin Fey Diamondstep Rear Bumper - Chrome Plated Steel # 21000 are going to be a bit more difficult. Westin only offers these for the 5th gen (starting in 1967) to the 9th gen (ending in 1996 for 1/2 tons and 1998 for 3/4 and 1 tons). With that being said, you are going to have to drill into your frame to install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III -...

• 1985 Chevy C10 Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Good Ground Clearance
  Good to hear from you, Ivan! I have 2 different hitch options for your 1985 Chevy C10 pickup depending on what bumper you have on your truck: - Standard/Step Bumper # 13028 - Deep drop Bumper # C13099 These are designed to hide the crosstube under your vehicle so the only part visible is the hitch receiver. If you check out the attached photo it was taken by a customer who installed the 13028 on their '86 C10 just to give you a reference.

• Recommended Hitches for a 2001 Ford F-150 and a 1993 Ford F-150
  No, sorry William those hitches will not be compatible. The 1993 Ford F-150 was part of the 9th generation which spanned from 1992–1997. The 2001 was part of the 10th generation that went from 1997–2004. Ford made some major changes between those two generations. Those trucks went from being big, square, and boxy to narrow and round. Completely different frames and rear ends so nothing carried over. For a 1993 Ford F-150, we've got two options depending on what bumper you have. For a Deepdrop...

• Hitch Recommendation for a 1976 Ford F150 with a Deep Drop Bumper
  A roll pan bumper is a bumper that basically makes the rear bumper look as if it does not stick out further than the rest of the truck and that is molded into the rear of the truck. Its basically a cosmetic modification that you see on a lot of lowered and/or show trucks. What you have is definitely a deep drop bumper. Check out the FAQ article I attached on bumper types for you to check out. With that being said, you will need a hitch designed for trucks with deep drop bumpers like the...

• Availability of a Class III Trailer Hitch to Fit a 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Truck
  I have a solution for you, but the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, # C13029, that you referenced will not fit the 1997 Chevrolet K1500 truck. If your truck has the standard or step bumper, then the Curt Class III Trailer Receiver Hitch, # C13042, will fit you truck.

• Fit of Curt Class V Receiver Part # C15300 on 1992 Ford F250 with 10 Inch Drop Aftermarket Bumper
  According to my contacts at Curt Manufacturing, the Class V Receiver you referenced, part # C15300 will work with a stock bumper only. Your 10 inch bumper comes down too far for the receiver opening to clear the bumper. I am told that the Class III Receiver, part # C13099 will most likely work with your bumper. The top of the receiver opening is 7-1/4 inches below the top of the mounting flanges. To confirm that it will work on your truck, measure down 7-1/4 inches from the bottom of...

• Is Modification Necessary for Curt Multi-Fit Hitch on 1996 Ford F-150
  I reached out to my contact at Curt and he said for your 1996 Ford F-150 the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13902 would require some pretty significant modifications on the truck for installation. Even when considering that the actual custom-fit options for your F-150 also require drilling into the frame rails, he does not recommend this multi-fit option for your truck unless it's an absolute emergency (just need to mount something in a pinch). He has installed the hitch before and it's...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1966 Ford F-100 With a Standard Bumper
  I have included a picture of what a deep drop bumper is going to look like for you. If your bumper looks more like the standard bumper, pictured in the FAQ I have linked for you, then you do not have the 10 inch bumper. You would then need a trailer hitch that is designed for the regular bumper, like # 41001. I have included a link to the installation details for both hitches. I also recommend the etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount, interchangeable ball set, hitch...
