You sold me a hitch and some HOPE thank you
A very great Hitch easy install and works great very well built.It bolted up to my 1955 second series chevy truck perfectly after drilling holes. Thank you for a great product.
Just as most of the other reviews have said, the hitch is nice but it does require removal of about 3/4” off the bottom of the license plate bracket. Only two hole holes lined up and you have to either drill them out or weld on. Other than that it’s a nice hitch
Fit my 1984 K10 Chevy short bed great! Fairly easy install.
Great Company with a Top Quality Product! Many Rhanks A Now I Know Our Trailer Is Safe With Your Quality Hitch!!
Just installed on my 1959 3100 apache.it fits great & the quality is very high. You attach it with 6 bolts ( included) see pics. This should fit any 1/2 ton 55-59 chevy truck imo.

That's awesome! If you ever want to send in a photo of the whole truck, it would be super fun to see!
Installed on my 69 GMC. I was able to oblong two of the existing holes in the rear but have to drill the other 4 holes. I added a frame mounted tank for EFI and this did not interfere. The spacers go between the frame and hitch due to factory rivets. All good!
The quality of the CURT hitch is superb. Installation was s bit strange. One hole on each side lined up. I had to drill the other four. Not a big deal. The weird part is that the center section of the bumper where the license plate goes had to have 3/4 inch cut from the bottom and the license moved up 3/4 inch to clear the receiver.
Someone without a good workshop would not have been able to install this hitch.
This pic is before the license was moved up.

Awesome. I have pulled a 14 box trailer with my 67 Chevy C10 several times. No issues at all.
Ordered 13028 hitch for my '68 C10 pickup. Order process was easy, hitch came before expected, hitch fit nicely, but box was damaged during shipping resulting in paint damage. Not their fault, though. Happy with order and will use them again, and definitely recommend,
Installed this on my 69' C-10 LWB about 1yr ago and have had very good success with it. As I recall it was a little more difficult because I set it forward a little more than normal and had to drill a couple holes. It wound up being almost a hidden hitch. Hitch appears to be well built with good looking welds. I have used this to tow 22' Ski boat on numerous occasions without any issues.

First let start off by saying that from the time I ordered the hitch receiver, and the time it arrived at my doorstep was quite timely and much faster than other sites I have ordered parts from. Directions were simple enough to understand and not much of a read. Only problems I came across was the previous holes that were drilled into the frame did not match with the holes on the receiver (previous owner must have had a different style receiver installed). I wasn’t too upset at this as this was something I expected from a truck that is nearly 50 years old; simply fixed this by drilling new holes, which if I remember correctly, was stated to be expected during install. Along with this, I had to remove the exhaust tail pipes as they were in the way, but this shouldn’t be a problem if your vehicle has the exhaust directed out the side instead of straight back like mine. The directions state to use a 1/2 inch drill bit for the holes, but I found this to be too tight. I would recommend using a 5/8 inch bit or shimmying the 1/2 inch bit around while you drill. I would recommend you get a buddy to help, but in a case like mine, simple vice grips sufficed to hold the hitch receiver in place while I drilled. Should take about an hour with help and sharp drill bits. Overall was a good experience.
Product and hardware are of good quality, only 1 hole on each side of my trucks frame lined up, so I had to drill more holes in the frame and line it up the best I could, also it didn’t clear the license plate frame on the bumper so I had to trim that about an inch, but in the end it looks good and feels secure, so I’m happy, I haven’t towed with it yet but I torqued the bolts up with a breaker bar so I’m sure it will be fine for a small boat.

When installing a trailer hitch like part # 13028 it is necessary to use a torque wrench to get the bolts to the right tightness. It is important to tighten bolts to the specified foot lbs in the instructions to avoid failure. Many auto parts stores lend out tools so you will not have to buy one in most cases.
