The receiver is very heavy duty.
I did wonder why the stock 6k 600tg had 10 bolts 4 were on the vertical part of the Silverado 1500 truck frame.
I wish the new 10k, 1,000 to had the (4) two vertical mounts to the frame, it's just seems more support with 10 bolts to yhe truck frame than 8 bolts that is what is used on this new curt 10k receiver.
Look at my photos of the 6k vs the 10k receiver.
Of course the 10k received is thicker material.
Note: to anyone that wants to know how easy it is to install.
It took me 1hr with the help of my Motorcycle lift jack.
This would not load my photos.
Perfect fit. Will hookup a trailer with load leveling shorthly and will make my final determination
Order received and Lauren was very helpful. I have my installation in 45 minutes
Product arrived a few days after being ordered. Box had some damage, but no big deal. Everything made it without damage. Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver actually went in pretty easily. Had to persuade a couple of the holes to line up, but nothing to strenuous. Surprised that this unit bolted right over the top of the existing lightweight unit that came with the truck. Overall a pretty easy project and looks like a good strong Hitch Receiver.
2018 Chevrolet Silverado LT extended cab 4 doors.Excellent quality, perfect welds and powder coated. E Trailer warranty.
Fitment is factory quality, very easy to install. Receiver sits about two inches below bumper but not an eye sore.
Sits flush with the bumper when looked from above.
Very happy with quality and ease of install, detailed instructions, diagrams and photos.
Extremely happy with how it performs.
I use it to tow a car trailer, motorcycle trailer and a boats. Customer service is top notch, all questions and concerns answered. Videos are available for the DIY, I definitely recommend E Trailer, customer for life.
Many Thanks.
The online video was a great walk though for the installation. I didn’t have any help so I rigged a wooden shaft through the receiver then cut a slot that excepted the spare tire winch cable and cranked it up into position. Perfect fit and was a Piece of cake!
Thanks, I will not hesitate to recommend you to anyone needing trailering accessories.
The Curt receiver arrived on time and is beautiful! The powder coating on it is exceptional and looks great on my truck. All of the holes for hardware lined up perfectly and it was really simple to install. The instructions gave all of the torque specs for the hardware which made it easy to install as well. If I ever need another receiver for a truck, I will not hesitate to buy this again. etrailer.com was great to work with too. The product shipped quickly, arrived quickly, and everything was smooth and easy. Thanks for a great experience.
Hitch is awesome. Class 4 may be slight overkill for pulling a pontoon boat, but for a few bucks more might as well upgrade the hitch. Shipping is very fast. Very easy install for anyone that has the proper tools to do the job. Saved over $100 by purchasing from here and installing myself.
Installed easy and have had it on for over a year and have pulled a 24ft trailer with ease . Great hitch and love it.
Looks like it's built well. Easy to in stall.
The ordering process was very easy. I received my order a day earlier than the expected delivery date and the hitch fit just like it said it would.
Very pleased with how it looks and how well it tows. Not planning on towing anything bigger than a small 5'x 8' trailer for yard work and it did just that, with ease.
Very nice hitch installed easily hauls my jet ski perfect behind my Chevy Sonic. Aplus and trailer
Got here very fast very happy with part

Great no problems good as new
A little extra packing material in the box would help keep the box from getting destroyed in shipping product is in good shape tho
Easy install. I used a floor jack and a 40 inch 2X4 to make it easy. UPS beat up the box pretty good but you guys did a great job packing so no damage.
Dear etrailer thank you for the awesome service I purchased my connector and my class 5 from you guys the install was easy and now I can haul my ford powerd 545 cubic inch hot rod with confidence. thanks agian
Hitch fit perfectly. Easy to install and good instructional video on website
Extremely easy install, Every hole lined up and every bolt fit properly. It is rather difficult with one person, but I found a way using a jack and a 4x6 post. I have had this on for a few month now and it has performed exactly how i had hoped.
Bolted up perfectly. Took approximately 30 minutes and that was with removing the old receiver first. Would definitely recommend this product
Perfect fit for my 2018 Silverado
Did not have to remove spare tire or bumper support to install
Order received faster than expected.
Website easy to navigate so that I could find and order the right product for my truck.
Bolted right in place as specified.
Overall very happy with my experience.
I just purchased a new 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 4.3 L V6, 8ft bed, base model truck, with no options. The truck is rated to tow a 5900 lbs trailer with a CGVW limit of 11000 lbs. I will be towing a Lance 1985 travel trailer, that weighs in around 4500 lbs wet. With excellent reviews and outstanding installation videos from etrailer.com, I ordered the Curt C14006 class IV hitch; the Tekonsha proportional Prodigy P3 brake controller; the Tekonsha plug-in wiring adapter specified for my truck; Cipa custom slip-on towing mirrors; and the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket - HM40975 specified for my truck. All new Chevy Silverado 1500's (even the base model with no options) comes from the factory pre-wired with a basic seven wire trailer towing harness already installed. Everything electric just plugged in without a single cut or splice of the wiring or any other wiring modifications. I just followed the instructions in the excellent installation videos on the etrailer.com website. The hitch installed quickly and lined up perfectly with factory bolt holes already on the truck frame, no drilling required. Finally I slipped on the Cipa custom towing mirrors and I was ready to tow after about two hours work. If I would have ordered my truck with a factory tow package, integrated brake controller, and extendable towing mirrors, the options would have run me slightly over $1450 on a new Chevy truck. Instead, I spent two hours of my own time doing the installations and paid about $550 for all the parts by ordering by from etrailer.com. Nice savings. You need to have a good set of socket and open end wrenches, including a torque wrench adjustable to a minimum of 110 ft/lbs for the hitch bolts. Spend some time and review all the installation videos for the parts that you need to order. The etrailer.com website also has downloadable installation instructions provided by the parts manufacturers.

I have towed about 3,000 miles in the last year, everything is working great.
Quick and easy installation, fit like a glove, definitely recommended!
Shame on chevy for not putting a hitch on a 4wd v8 smh. Found this hitch for half the price vs the factory hitch from chrvy themselves. Happy with it. Shipped very fast.
