• Hitch Recommendation for a 2009 Chevy Cobalt Coupe
  If your 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt is not an SS then you would want a Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C11430. I attached installation instructions as well as a link to a video of this hitch being installed on a similar vehicle as yours below. If your Cobalt is an SS then you could use a Draw-Tite Hitch, part # 24756, like you referenced. I attached installation instructions and a video of this hitch being installed on a vehicle that is similar to yours below also. You may also be interested in...

• Installation Time for a Hitch on a 2009 Chevrolet HHR
  For this particular installation I do not see a difference in the installation so I believe the difference is just in the amount of time the manufacturers stated at the time of engineering. The installation is essentially the same for all of the hitches (see link) offered for the 2009 Chevrolet HHR. I would allow a bit more time, maybe 1-1/2 hours, for the installation if working off of the ground without a lift.

• Will Kuat Bike Rack B202-114 Fit on a 2007 Chevy Cobalt SS Coupe
  The clearance for bike rack # B202-114 is going to be 7-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the upright bar on the bike rack. To determine if this rack would have enough clearance to fit on your 2007 Chevy Cobalt, I recommend measuring from your hitch pin hole to a point past your bumper and any other items that might interfere with the bike rack installation. If this measurement is less than 7-1/2 inches, the Kuat bike rack would work well for your application. If...

• Is There a Trailer Hitch for 2010 Chevrolet HHR With Heavy Tongue Weight Capacity
  The only trailer hitches that fit a 2010 Chevy HHR are Class I hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, 2,000 lb towing capacity and 200 lb tongue weight capacity. The reason is because these vehicles simply don't have the capacity for that much extra weight, and aren't designed with that purpose in mind. Five hundred pounds is a very large amount of tongue weight, and the only vehicles that have hitches with that much capacity are large trucks or SUVs. The only option to transport a mobility...

• Trailer Hitch for a 2009 Chevy HHR SS to Use with Kuat Transfer Bike Rack
  I checked with Curt and trailer hitch # C11447 will fit your 2009 Chevy HHR SS model! You mentioned that you want to use the hitch for a bike rack. If you choose the Curt hitch then Curt also says you have to use stabilization strap # 18050 when using this hitch for any non-trailer load (such as a bike rack or cargo carrier) per their warranty requirements. If you don't want to have to use the strap then I recommend the Draw-Tite hitch, # 24756, because it does not require the use of the...

• Choosing the Correct Trailer Hitch and Accessories for a 2008 Chevy Cobalt LT1
  For the 2008 model year, the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24756 fits the Sport, Sport Sedan, and SS Coupe models of the Chevy Cobalt. If you have a regular sedan or coupe model you would need the Curt hitch # C11430. The underside of each may look similar but the mounting locations and hitch design are different which is why there are different hitches for each. I have included links to the installation instructions for both hitches for you to view. If you require the first hitch, 24756,...

Therefore, you could absolutely tow a small trailer with this trailer hitch so long as the vehicle is also rated for it.

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2011 Chevy HHR
  Curt and Draw Tite are not the same companies. Draw Tite and Hidden Hitch are made by the same company so they are basically the same. But Curt is it's own company by itself. For most vehicles all of the hitch manufacturers will go with a very similar design that uses the same installation points on the vehicle. In the case of your 2011 Chevy HHR all of the hitches do look very similar with a few minor differences. The hitch I would recommend is the Draw-Tite part # 24756 because it doesn't...

• Differences Between Trailer Hitch Receivers for a 2008 Chevrolet HHR LT1
  The differences between the Draw-Tite # 24756 and the Curt # C11447 trailer hitches for your 2008 Chevrolet HHR are that the Draw-Tite has a welded tab that keeps you from using Class II trailer hitch rated accessories and it doesn't have a collar while the Curt doesn't have the welded tab and it does have a collar.

• Hitch Recommendation for a 2006 Chevy Cobalt
  Based on the size of the food cart you have the only option I can recommend for you would be to install a hitch on your 2006 Chevy Cobalt like # C11430 or part # 24756 if you have an SS model and tow a small trailer. The dimensions of the food cart are too big to fit on a cargo carrier. The hitch I recommended comes with pin and clip. You will still need a ball mount. For a ball you can use # 19256 (1-7/8 inch diameter) or # 19258 (2 inch diameter). You will need to check the coupler...

• Does the Rear Bumper have to be Trimmed to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 2011 Chevy HHR
  If you have a 2011 Chevy HHR and it is an SS model, there is a small section that needs to be trimmed in the rear fascia for the hitch to fit properly. I have included a link to the installation instructions that shows where you would need to to trim. On non-SS models, you should not have to trim and the isntallation should be like the video I have linked. If you plan on doing some towing, the hitch comes with the proper ball mount, pin and clip. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for...

• Hitch and Trailer Recommendation for a 2011 Chevy HHR
  The only way you could transport a 500 handicap scooter with your 2011 Chevy HHR would be for you to install a hitch like part # 24756 and then use a small trailer. A cargo carrier setup wouldn't work because your vehicle wouldn't have the tongue weight rating to suspend the weight of your 500 lb wheel chair off the ground unsupported. To complete your towing setup you would also want a ball mount, the # 118407 for trailer wiring, # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball, and # 19258 for a...

• Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2011 Chevy HHR
  For your 2011 Chevy HHR the hitch I would recommend for you since you plan to carry a bike rack is actually the Draw Tite part # 24756 because unlike the Curt it does not require a stabilizer strap when carryin a non-supported load like a bike rack. If you check out the picture I attached though you'll see that this hitch also tucks under the rear bumper pretty nicely as well. In that price range you really can't beat the Thule Camber 2 # TH9058 which would fit and work well. This would...

• Why Draw Tite Trailer Hitch Over Curt for a 2007 Chevy HHR For Bike Rack
  In general we recommend the Draw Tite hitches over the Curt for bike racks since Curt hitches require the use of a stabilizer strap when the hitch is carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack. So for a 2007 Chevy HHR the Draw Tite hitch part # 24756 would be the best option. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch and Ball Mount for a 2009 Chevy HHR
  The trailer hitch I recommend is the Draw-Tite Class I # 24756 and Draw-Tite ball mount # 3594 because the top of the receiver to the ground is 10-1/4 inches and the ball mount will give you a 4-inch rise. As a result, giving you a 14-1/4 inch ground clearance and stay above the 13-1/2 inches. The weight will bring the clearance down a tad from the 14-1/4 inch clearance which will keep your trailer more level. The wiring for your 2009 Chevy HHR is # 118407 and 1-7/8 hitch ball is # 19256.

• Drawbar Recommendation for a 2006 Chevy HHR with a Hidden Hitch # 60815
  I did a little research and found that the draw bar came with your Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch Receiver with Drawbar, part # 60815 (no longer available), is the Sportframe Drawbar 4 inch Rise, part # 3594. Since your hitch is a Class I hitch it is not recommended that you use any drawbar other than the one that the hitch manufacturer recommends otherwise you will void your warranty. The reason they are very particular about using the right rise/drop drawbar is that if you were to get rear-ended...
