The Curt 3-Piece Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15511 will fit a 1989 Chevy K1500 if it's the cab and chassis model. Since you have a pickup we need to find a different hitch.
If your Chevy has the standard or step bumper then I recommend checking out the etrailer hitches; part # e88AR if you have a crew cab or part # e29KR if you don't have a crew cab. These are lower capacities than the Curt hitch you currently have but it matches more closely to what your truck is really capable of pulling.
If you have the roll pan bumper use the Curt # 13942 and if you have the 10" deepdrop bumper use the Curt # C13099.
As long as you verify what you have and match it with what I've listed above you'll be able to get a hitch that will fit your pickup. Attached are some installation instructions for the different hitches for you to check out.
