The trailer hitch pin hole diameter on your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 could be either a 5/8" or 3/4". The OEM makes the 3" trailer hitch receiver and not all of them use the same diameter trailer hitch pin hole but it is normally a 5/8 inch pin.

Therefore, in order to determine which size you need the best method would be to just go measure for yourself. If you don't have access to the truck then you can order the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Lock part # 63260 as it has a sleeve which makes it compatible with both 5/8" and 3/4" diameter trailer hitch pin holes. If it is indeed 5/8" then you can use the InfiniteRule Security Trailer Hitch Lock part # 34065034-D.

I have attached a review video for you.

For a hitch lock to fit a 3 inch trailer hitch on your Ford you would want the Draw-Tite Hitch Lock #63260.

Answer 2

We have the Draw Tite hitch lock part #63260 that has a 4 inch usable span and a 5/8 inch diameter like what would be needed for a 3 inch trailer hitch. This also stainless steel which means it won't corrode and is very strong.

Hey Jerry, GM moved the placement of their puck systems starting with 2020 models so you are correct that the pucks would have the hitch not sit directly over the axle. GM did the math and made sure that this placement wouldn't adversely affect…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
