We currently offer 10 different receiver hitches for the 2005 Chevy Express, with towing capacities ranging from 3500 to 12,000 lbs. The torque rating of the installation bolts will depend on the particular hitch being installed, the rating will vary according to the weight capacity of the hitch.

I have provided a link below to the hitches offered for that vehicle. Clicking on the part number of each hitch will redirect you to its product description page. Each product description page will have a link on the right side of the page to the installation instructions. The instructions for each hitch will list the proper torque ratings.
