Question:
Is there a reason this ball is not listed for GM trucks while the 38K 3inch Curt ball C60634 is listed for all three brands?

Expert Reply:
Hey John, thanks for reaching out. So, the reason the # RP19314 is not listed for GM trucks, is because Reese Specifically states that this ball is not for use with GMC puck systems. They do not say specifically why, but when they clearly say not to use with GMC, I am sure they have a good reason for it. Probably only the techs/engineers at Reese would know the exact reasoning. If you have a GMC truck with the puck system, use the 38K Curt ball # C60634 instead since Curt confirms it to work with GM OEM puck systems.
