Question:
hey, i was just wondering if this hitch would work on my nnbs 2007 chevrolet Silverado 1500LT single cab short bed with the Regency RST package. it has a Roll Pan with a fold down license plate. i would be using it to haul my gmc sierra race truck around, and occasionally a polaris RZR along with the race truck. will this hitch work with the roll pan like a hidden hitch? or are there any other hitches that you would recommend better for the roll pan? thank you for your time,

I have a potential solution for you but none of the hitches for the 2007 Chevy Silverado (New Body style) are designed for models with a roll pan bumper. Installation of a hitch such as # 14301 will likely require a little trimming of the roll pan. If you are willing to make those modifications then this will work.
Otherwise you will need to look at weld-on hitches such as # 41990-07 or # 41990-16 in order to drop the receiver low enough to avoid having to trim the roll pan bumper. Weld-on installations should be performed by professional welders.
The hitch you mentioned # 41938 does not fit your truck.
