1989 GMC C/K Series Pickup

LI had to move the light harness ground to a different location, but it bolted right on after that. 30 minutes using a floor jack to lift and hold in position.

by: John White(97 Chev C/K pickup) 12/27/2015

I installed this hitch all by myself and I am 67 years old. I used a couple of ropes to help me (picture). I had to do some simple fitting like. Chamfering the sides of one of the lips (picture) to fit flush between 2 rivets.. I had to drill and tap a new hole for the ground wire. I also installed a new wire harness for the trailer lights. I had to drill and tap a new hole for the ground wire for that also. These are very simple tasks and I took my time to make sure everything was just right. I also had to make 2 trips to the hardware store for an 18mm socket. (Seems all socket sets jump from 17 to 19mm). Then I had to go back for a 6in. extension for my torque wrench. I actually enjoyed the project. Total time=several leisure hours.

Looked at other hitches that required drilling of the Truck Frame. Bought this Curt C14081 because it claimed to bolt on. Mounted great! I first ordered the wrong hitch and Andy M took care of me. Great Customer service.

Great price, fast shipping and arrived as described. I installed the hitch in 30 minutes, no need to remove the spare tire, while babysitting my 2 and 4 year old granddaughters. Too easy.

No issues after a year of use.

by: Jerard 01/11/2025

This is my second hitch that I purchased from e-trailers. I absolutely loved this hitch installation process. The two videos cover just about every installation scenario possible, but the instructions that come with it covers even more nuances specific to your pickup. I was able to get this installed in less than an hour and super happy with the experience. The fact that I was able to call and talk to someone about how to take the proper measurements and really ensure that the hitch was going to be a 100% perfect fit, is priceless. Couldn't find that anywhere else.

4x4 with regular cab, and the short 6 1/2 ft bed. The pickup came with the z71 package and 265/75R16 tires from the factory. The first thing I did was drop the spare out of the way. The ground wire is in the way for any hitch install on my pickup so I removed the wire, extended it three inches and reinstalled it to the frame using an unused hole in the frame. It is a good idea to clean off the rust with some sandpaper before attaching the ground wire. The next thing I noticed was the hitch has a hole to clear a bolt on the passenger side, but the hole just barely clears the bolt and actually ends up resting on the flange of the bolt. There is no room to move the hitch over to miss the flange without it riding on a rivet on the driver's side. I did not like the hitch riding off the frame like that so I removed this bolt and ground one side of the flange off (see pics). Now the hitch sits flat on the frame. The next issue was the spare tire. I took a picture of the spare before mounting the hitch. After bolting the hitch in place I took a picture of it again. I did not like the tight fit of the 265 spare with this hitch. As you can see in the pictures the rubber brake line is rubbing on the tire. As the suspension moves, the spare and the brake line will rub. You could wrap the brake line in a rubber hose if you really wanted to keep a 265R16 spare under the bed, and that might protect the brake hose from damage, but I chose to replace the spare with a smaller tire. I went with a 225/75R16 for it's narrower width and smaller diameter. I also took a picture of this spare and now there is sufficient space around the brake line I feel. I could have even went with a slightly taller tire it looks like. I have heard of some people bending the brake line out of the way, but it wasn't the way I wanted to go. At first I was considering getting a hitch like the Draw-Tite 41525 for its spare tire clearance, but then I noticed a few exposed square tube hitches on the road and decided personally it wasn't the look I wanted on my pickup. So I started looking at concealed square tube hitches like this one and Draw-Tite's 41524. There are some good pictures of a 41524 install here on etrailer. If you look at those pictures, the square tubing rests as close as it can to the bumper, whereas on this Curt there is a gap of 1 to 1 1/4 inches between the bumper and the hitch (see my pics). I don't know if the difference is from different pickups or the hitches are different. I suspicion the 41524 is made to fit closer to the bumper giving you that extra inch or so of extra room for your spare. If you really wanted to stuff a tire as big as the 265 in front of your concealed square tube it looks to me like the 41524 may give you a slight advantage. Perhaps it would not be enough to avoid the brake line though. I'm not sure whether I would have needed to go down to a smaller tire with the 41524 hitch or not, but I wouldn't doubt that I still would have put a smaller tire on even with the slight advantage the 41524 gives. If I couldn't accept any spare tire conflicts with a hitch there were two hitches I was considering that may not interfere. These hitches do show the tubes below the bumper (I think) but they are round tubes which I personally think look better than the square tubes when exposed. The Reese multi-fit 37069 (5,000 lb rating) and 37034 (7,000 lb rating) are the two round tubes I was considering. With the 37034 the weld nuts must be removed for bigger 5/8 inch bolts, while the smaller version bolts right into the factory weld nuts. I would like to see a picture of these hitches installed but could not find any. Being multi-fit they are not specifically made for your Chevy, but fit Fords etc. The 37034 is a bit heavier than this Curt at 63 lbs vs 47. They do not appear to be available here at etrailer. If you wanted to try one you could probably call etrailer and have them order one for you. I know I did this with a tow hook they did not offer and etrailer was really good at finding this hook for me. I was deciding between these four hitches for my pickup. I wouldn't doubt that all four would have been good choices. I do like the Curt I got. It is the lightest weight of the four and has the highest weight rating. It looks good and is concealed very well up under the bumper. I only had to make one concession and that was in the spare tire department. I do think this Curt compromises spare tire space more than the other three mentioned but I found a way around that which works for me. I do not know if all Chevies are going to have the same dimensions as mine. Mine is different than most being a regular cab and going back a ways in years. The tools I used were:
13 mm socket (to remove the ground wire)
15 mm socket and wrench (to remove the bolt I shaved down)
18 mm socket (to remove the factory bolts out of the weld nuts)
19 mm socket (to install the new Curt bolts)
I actually bought a deep 19 just for this job as the Curt bolts are long and I felt I could get on them better with a deep socket.

I am very pleased with the product. Installation was very straightforward, and I experienced zero issues.

The hitch cross bar is completely hidden on my 88 c1500, which was one of my reasons for replacing the hitch that was on the truck. Original one was rusty and looked pretty bad compared to the new one.

etrailer was great as they have been for other orders.

Well, For several pieces of metal that have been welded together and then bolted to my frame, Its still there doing its job as it should. The receiver is still receiving. When I hook a trailer on to my hitch the trailer follows my truck down the road without going off on its own which is a plus.

Great product. Mounted right on my 96 gmc with no problems. Had to move a ground wire from the frame in order for the hitch to fit. Used a hydraulic floor jack to lift the hitch in place, then everything bolted in correctly. Took about 45 minutes since the two bolt I had to remove were very rusty. Will definitely buy from you again. Thanks

Bolts lined up perfectly and I had it installed fully in less than 30 minutes by myself. The hitch also hides nicely underneath the bumper. Thanks

Great heavy duty receiver hitch, and installs like a dream--perfect hole alignment. I used a ratchet strap to support the main hitch cross bar to the bumper, and then could just lift the mounting arms easily and thread the bolts. Worked slick. Also, this hitch tucks under the bumper tight and is hardly visible.

I was fortunate to find etrailer.com. I only needed to provide a couple of measurements to get the correct hitch the first time.

The hitch bolted up perfectly. I received it quickly and was able to install shortly after. The welds on it look great and nice e-coat so hopefully will keep rust away for many years. Fasteners look good. Great product.

This hitch is probably the best one for 88-98 OBS Chevy Trucks. It bolted right up in about 25 minutes. No modification of any kind required. Instructions were clear with good pictures to aid in placing the hardware correctly. Love the 10K tow rating and 1K tongue weight rating. Solid hitch. Money very well spent!

Best Trailer Hitch For 1993 Chevy C1500 Short Bed
Hello Joe, thanks for reaching out. Yes, we do have a hitch for the 1993 Chevy C1500 short bed. For that I recommend the following: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class IV - 2" # C14081 This will fit short bed pickup models with a standard rear bumper or step bumper. Just keep in mind it will not fit models with the roll pan bumper or dual exhaust models. Also, if you have a spare tire 18" or larger stored under the vehicle, the spare will no longer fit with the hitch installed. What...

Recommended 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness for 1995 Chevy C3500 with 5.7L
For your 1995 Chevy C3500, I recommend your start with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 brake controller # 90195. This proportional controller will apply your trailer brakes at the same time and with the same intensity as you hit the brake pedal in your truck. It has easy to use presets and has an LCD screen to avoid code deciphering of most other brake controllers. It is completely transferable to another vehicle if you decide to move trucks at some point. If you want a more basic controller,...

Trailer Hitches and Wiring for a 1993 Chevy 1500 Truck and 1999 Chevy Suburban
You would not be able to move a trailer hitch back and forth between the 1999 Suburban and 1993 Chevy 1500 because the hitches are different between these vehicles and are not interchangeable. Also, you would have to get new hardware every time. The hardware is meant to only be torqued down once and not reused. For the 1999 Chevy Suburban the most popular hitch is # C14029. For the truck the most popular option (for models with standard or step bumper) is # C14081. The recommended ball...

Is Roud Tube Hitch Available for a 1997 Chevy Pickup with Square Tube Hitch
Thanks for reaching out, Mark! In order for you to get a round tube hitch receiver for your 1997 Chevy pickup you'll need to have one fabricated using something like the part # E17. I'm guessing the reason you're wanting to swap the hitch out is so that it looks a little more sleek.

Looking for 10K Capacity Receiver Hitch for 1998 GMC K2500 That Fits With Spare Tire In Place
The Curt Class IV, part # C14081 would work great for you. According to Curt, the spare will need to be dropped temporarily in order to facilitate the installation, but once the hitch is in place, the spare will fit back in its original location. This is possible because the hitch crossbar is kicked back further toward the rear of the vehicle which allows more room for the tire. I've linked you to an installation video.
