Front Mount Hitch Receiver Location on a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe LT3 Z71
Updated 02/22/2013 | Published 02/17/2013
Question:
I see you offer a front receiver hitch for the 2007 Tahoe I want this hitch to mount high even if it comes out behind license plate. Does this model have a high/low mount option? or can it be flipped upside down? The current Tahoe already has minimal ground clearance before adding a hitch up front.

I spoke with my contact at Curt and he told me that there is only one mounting option for the Curt Front Hitch, # C31012. This hitch was designed to mount to the underside of the frame rails, hanging below the frame as it is pictured (see photo). He also told me that this hitch was not designed or tested to mount in any other orientation and doing so could not only cause damage to the hitch and your vehicle, but would void the warranty of the hitch.
If you would like to determine where the receiver of the hitch will be once the hitch is installed, I can tell you that the top of the receiver tube will sit 8-3/16 inches below the bottom of the frame rails (see photo). At this time we do not offer any other front mount hitches that can be mounted upside down or on the top of the frame.
