The top of the receiver for the Curt Trailer Hitch # C14082 is going to sit roughly 4" lower than the frame on your 1984 Chevy K20. I'm not sure what the dimensions of your flat bed are, but if the part of your flat bed that you're talking about is more than 4" lower than the frame on your pickup then it definitely won't fit. If it's less than 4" then you should be good to go!
