1970 GMC C/K Series Pickup

Got my new hitch late last night. I was so glad to get it I had to put it together right then. Its going to be a perfect fit. The hitch is very well built. Very surprised I could find a hitch for a 1970 GMC. I will be pulling my 27 ft Toy hauler after a little more restoration work. Always happy with Etrailer. I'll post more pics when I have it on and hooked up to my trailer

My new hitch from etrailer is working out great. I have pulled my Toy Hauler with my 70 GMC. Trailer weights a little over 9000 lbs. Also did aLS swap on the GMC 6 liter vortec

I installed this hitch on a 1998
Chevy K3500 with a dump bed. I had to make a slight modification to the truck so that the hitch would bolt up. This included removing a metal shield from under the rear fuel tank, the hitch now offers some protection for the tank. In addition, I had to drill 2 - 1/2” holes in the rear of the frame to install the hitch. The hitch now works great on this older truck, and has been used many times over the past year.



by:

Fits nicely right under a 10 inch drop bumper on my 97 F-250 HD. Was able to leave the spare tire under there, though I had to grind the latching system a bit to have it fit just right. It is very visible from the sides of the truck along the sides of the frame because of how much it has to drop, but it is not very visible from the rear for those that care about aesthetics.

Hitch has towed everything Ive asked of it. Very solid, no regrets and more importantly no need to ever purchase another one!



by:

The Representative assisted me over the phone, Gave research and was confident in their product. She quarantined my hitch would be in on a specific date. The hitch actually came in two days early during a major holiday. I am satisfied with the price and the service that I was given.

Quality hitch but none of the bolt holes line up, nothing a drill bit can't fix in about 15 minutes, 1972 K-10 Chevy

My hitch arrived quickly. It’s well built and will fit around my truck’s deep step bumper.



by:
1985 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

The box was roughed up a bit by delivery and one of the bolts is now rolling around in a delivery truck somewhere in America. Anyhow, I contacted etrailer and they got a whole new pack of bolts sent my way. Now I have a ton of extras. Anyhow, the hitch fit my 1985 C30, although I had to drill holes in the frame (easy). It looks super sturdy and was in good shape. No powder coat issues.

This was a direct bolt on hitch for my 1976 c20 chevy crew cab. No drilling on my frame. Very pleased.

I thought I had selected the correct Curt receiver and was ready to place an order online, but I decided to call instead. Ashley advised this receiver was the correct one for my bumper. She saved a lot of headache on my part avoiding order the incorrect product. The receiver actually delivered a day earlier than planned. I am impressed with the quality of the product and am planning on an install this weekend, then putting it to work. I will definitely shop etrailer again in the future. From the website, selection of products, knowledgeable associates and fast shipping, I made a good decision shopping here.

This hitch is excellent upgrade for my old Dodge dually to safely haul my new dump trailer. Heavy duty gussets around insert area for more peace of mind. Install was straight forward, great price, and etrailer.com got it to me quick.

Hitch has performed flawlessly,with max loads on multiple trips. Dually pretty much stays hitched to dump trailer.



by:
1993 Ford F-250 Super Duty

I installed two of these on 1993 ford trucks a f250 and a f350. Both trucks are 7.3 diesels with heavy cowboy bumpers. Buy high grade drill bits, Don't weld to the frame. Don't expect the spare tire and it's brackets to stay on the trucks and expect to reroute the tailpipe. In the end much more useful than just the bumper for multiple receiver hitch applications and worth the effort to upgrade.



by:
1983 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

Although I had to "help" a couple holes with a drill the install went very well and looks great on my 83 k20! The holes were only partly off and took a few seconds to line up. Highly recommend curt products from E Trailer!

This hitch was exactly what I needed. It fit my pickup truck perfectly and was easy to install. I use it pull my 14 K trailer to haul my backhoe, cars, and other equipment. I would recommend this hitch. It was a great value for the price. Thanks.

This hitch went on my 84 K30 Chevy. Very easy once you remove the spare tire and carrier. Way heavy duty but very easy to install. No complaints with hitch whatsoever. The hitch was delivered in a cardboard box that had seen its better days. Box was busted open in several areas but the anvil type quality of the hitch didn't effect it at all. May have been the shipper fault but none the less.



by:

Direct fit and was an easy install.

Straight forward install. This is a well built hitch that has taken everything I have thrown at it. The finish has held up well too.

  • Which Class V Bumper Fits a 1984 Ford F-150 with 8" Deep Drop Bumper?
    Roger, I can't quite tell from the picture anything about the frame rails on your 1984 Ford F-150 4x4, but the Curt # C15511 will work just fine with your 8" deep drop bumper and has the class V ratings you're looking for. Keep in mind that you are still limited by the towing capacity of your truck, and ball mount/hitch ball. Installing a new hitch will not increase the towing capacity of your vehicle. None of the hitches on the market are designed to work with a bumper that uses any...

  • Measurement of Curt 3-Piece Trailer Hitch C15511 from End of Mounting Flange to Receiver Tube
    I was able to obtain from Curt a chart showing key dimensions for their 3-Piece Trailer Hitch # C15511 (and other hitch models) that I linked for you. This shows that for hitch # C15511 the overall front-to-back length is just under 24-inches. The height from the top of the mount down to the top of the receiver tube is 8-inches.

  • Will the Curt Hitch 13028 Fit a 1966 Chevrolet C10 with Aftermarket Bumper
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13028 could potentially fit your 1966 Chevrolet C10 with aftermarket bumper. However, I would not be able to confirm this as the trailer hitch is only tested with the OEM bumper. I have attached a photo for you with a few measurements that will allow you to see if the receiver tube will clear the bumper. If it does not then please let me know and I will see if we have a better fit for you.

  • 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...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 1989 Ford F-250 XLT Lariat with Deep Drop Bumper
    Thank you for the photo! What you have there is a deep drop or "cowboy" bumper. So, for a 2 inch trailer hitch that is confirmed to fit your 1989 Ford F-250 XLT Lariat with the deep drop bumper, I recommend the Curt # C15511. This 3-piece trailer hitch receiver is specially designed for heavy-duty towing. This is a multi fit hitch, so drilling is required to bolt it onto your truck's frame, but it will fit both 34 and 37-1/2 inch frames. It has a 15,000 lb towing capacity and a 1,500 lb...

I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" Item # 13028 which is a fit for your truck if you have a standard bumper.

  • Class V Trailer Hitch Fit for 1993 Ford F350
    Because the mounting flange of the Curt # C15511 Class V hitch has 3 tabs on each side, rather than a continuous mounting flange like many other hitches, it'll fit around the rivet shown in your photo. However, be aware that the Curt # C15511 is a fit for cab/chassis models only and won't fit a vehicle that has a standard truck bed on it. Chassis/cab models have a narrower frame which is why this hitch wouldn't work on a pickup model. If you have a pickup model with the 37-1/2 inch frame...

    That's a really good question, and the reason the Curt 3-Piece Trailer Hitch Receiver - Multi Fit # C15511 is able to fit both 34 inch and 37-1/2 inch frames on your 1993 Ford is due to the placement of the side plates. If you take a look of the photo I added you can see it has side plates which do not come attached.

  • Trailer Hitch for 1998 GMC C/K 3500 Cab/Chassis with Dual Rear Wheels
    We've got you covered. The cab and chassis models did indeed have a 34 inch frame width. I'm not sure what kind of capacity you're needing, but because it's a dump truck on a 1 ton chassis, I'll give you a medium and a heavy duty option. For a heavy duty option with a 15000 lb towing capacity/1500 lb tongue weight capacity, I'd recommend the Curt Class V hitch, part # C15511. If you don't need quite that much grunt, Curt offers the Class IV # C14082 with a 10K towing/1000 lb tongue weight...
