Will TorkLift Rear Tie-Down for 2002 Silverado 2500 With Factory Hitch Fit With Aftermarket Hitch

Question

Question:

Hello, I recently bought torklift camper tie downs and realized that i need a 2 1/2” hitch for a hitch extension to tow with my camper. My stock hitch is only 2”. Will this hitch fit with the rear tie down brackets i already purchased? They are the Torklift TLC3205. If not, is there a 2 1/2” hitch that would fit with those brackets or do i need to buy different rear brackets now? Thank you!

Expert Reply:

The # TLC3205 you have now is only designed to work with the factory hitch. Whether it is the # DT45517, a Curt hitch, or even a TorkLift hitch you will need a different rear tie-down. The correct rear tie-down for a 2002 Silverado 2500 without a board or step underneath and with a non-Torklift aftermarket hitch would be the # TLR3501.

The difference between the Curt #14211 and the Curt #C14008 is pretty subtle, but it has to do with how they mount to the frame of the vehicle. The Curt #14211 mounts in factory drilled holes further forward in the frame allowing it to fit on a 2003…
