For a business that is based on shipping everything they need to learn how to package stuff. Everything I received from a trailer comes damaged at this point.

2019 GMC Sierra

Installed on my 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali. Shipping box was destroyed & poorly packed. Instructions were straightforward. Install took 1 1/2 hrs. I only trimmed the thin trim without cutting the skid plate. The receiver pushes up on the skid plate slightly, but I didn’t want to cut it. Should work great for my E-bikes when pulling the RV.



by:

etrailer gave very good service at a good price! I couldn’t believe how fast this front hitch for my 2021 Silverado was at my door. It was so easy to install,45 minutes in my driveway, with no issues. Great step by step instructions. I elected to just take the lower valance off and probably leave it off instead of cutting a hole in it, at least for now. This is my third truck that I have had with a front hitch on it and it is so nice for backing my pontoon boat or my 28’ enclosed snowmobile trailer into difficult places! As long as I have a trailer I would not be without a front hitch on my truck. Some people don’t understand “why a front hitch?” They have never used one and if they did they would know and understand why. Thank You etrailer.com

2015 GMC Sierra 1500

Installed on my 2020 Silverado in less than an hour. This is my 3rd hitch from E-Trailer. Fast delivery.
Tip: After installing the 7/16 hex flange nuts, I used washers between the 2nd 7/16 nuts to protect the holes in the skid plate.
Also purchased trim for the air dam cut out for a finished look. Heated with hot air gun to make it more plyable.

Chevrolet Silverado

This trailer hitch fit perfect on my 2022 Chevy 1500 Silverado.
I did confirm with a /chevy dealer that the frame on a 2022 Silverado did not change from a 2021 prior to purchasing this hitch.



by:
2020 GMC Sierra

Muche easier and quicker install on my 2020 GMC Sierra Doublecab. As a note, i didn't cut the front airdam. I removed the bottom piece (which had been chewed up a little bit by higher curbs and then was able to just slightly push up the air dam. My wife thought you couldn't even notice and certainly easier than cutting (because you can never put it back LOL).

Overall a quick install that went very easy. Very satisfied.



by:

Installation took about 1.5 hours. Product arrived on time and installed as advertised in directions.



by:
2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

I’d give it 5 stars if the instructions were correct. This model does NOT require trimming of the plastic as the instructions say. Don’t do it. I’ll attach pics. The bumper brackets must be removed in order to get it to fit. That’s not mentioned in the instructions but is on other comments. It’s not hard. It really helps to have two people when lifting and bolting. A small impact wrench is nice too.

I’ve actually stopped using this and went to a full brushguard. It worked well. It does reduce the angle of inclination on approach when off roading. It was very strong though and did well winching.



by:
2021 GMC Sierra 1500

The box came damaged, but no big deal. Hard to hurt this. My suggestion to add to the instructions are to also have an 18MM end wrench to go with the 18 MM socket, as the passenger's side bolt on the toe hooks needs a back up to loose. My impact drill/sockets helped a lot. The instructionss for the cut out are a little hard to follow, but I just cut a chunk out at the centerline 3" wide by 2.5" into the back of the air dam and it worked great. You have to get the passenger's side bolt where you removed the nut backed out until it's flush with the frame to get it in place on both sides. It took me a lot longer, but most of the time was lost because I didn't have an 18MM end wrencch, which I ended up going and getting. Electric sawzall worked great for cutting the air dam, and you could probably force the thing into place without cutting this. 2021 GMC Denali PU

Received my Curt Front Mount Hitch in a big box with substantial amount of scars and holes in the box. Upon opening the hitch was literally just sitting in there with the little bag of install parts Packing tapped to the hitch. No Bracing, Packing Insulation or padding whatsoever. The hitch was fairly scared up but didn't look like there was any real damage. So I re-painted the unit and went ahead and used it. The instructions are pretty vague. Especially when it comes to cutting your lower Air Deflector. I will likely have to replace that piece when I sell my truck since figuring out that the 3" X 2.15" listed in the instructions is from the bottom. The way it was described I thought it poked through the Air Deflector.. soon learned I was wrong and ended up cutting the deflector way more than needed. Shame the instructions weren't better! Once installed it fit and works great.



by:

Product fit and installed as indicated; works great for my minimal plowing needs.

2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Nice looking hitch, however the instructions could be improved and the pictures depicting the instructions were almost unable to view.
For what the hitch costs how about some understandable color pics. The reciver is very low @8" off the ground on my 4wd. Could be re designed for more ground clearance. I'm sure ill have problems with the clearance issue

I recommend taking a look at the instruction details link on the product page as this will have colored pictures to reference. I checked and we do not currently offer a hitch that would give higher ground clearance for the 2020 Chevy Silverado 2020.



by:
2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Very simple install. Go to the online instructions if you want decent pictures but the diagram in the instructions was super helpful. I will say that if you have a trail boss or AT4 you will need to remove two bumper bracket guards. One 18mm bolt and one 10mm bolt holds the guards on. They will not be put back on after the hitch is installed. It took me an hour of trying to fit this thing to figure that out. Then I read it in several reviews and also noticed they were not present in the pics of the installation instructions.



by:

The box containing the hitch was in horrible condition which worried me a little. However the hitch was fine and fit perfectly. Excellent product!

The hitch appears to good and it looks like the installation kit was taped to the hitch

BUT the shipping box was destroyed and poorly taped back together



by:
2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Perfect fit, instructions were spot on. Took half around 40 minutes to install start to finish.



by:

Great deal, fast shipping. I am 65 years old, bad knees, and I put it in by myself. If I can do it, so can you. Save yourself the $200 install fee. It’s easy.



by:

Took 3 hours to install , hot day, couple mistakes, instructions could have been more detailed, seems to be reasonably strong- time will tell

A good solid product. I used it for the front of my 2020 Chevy Silverado trailboss for a custom surf fishing rack I built to carry a cooler and rods. Mounted up easy and will never be the weak point for my set-up. Good product.



by:
2021 GMC Sierra 1500

Would of gave it five stars but on the GMC At4 a (useless unused) bracket on each side of frame had to come off and stay off for it to fit.

Going to transport Bicycles with this hitch. Fit good and was not very hard to install. This is my second front mount hitch that I have installed from Curt. Glad there is no drilling involved to install.



by:

Super fast shipping,fair price,using the front hitch for a cargo rack for extra storage on a pick up with a slide in camper.



by:

This was fairly easy to install in just over an hour, without help. Bolted to factory bolts with no drilling. Fit truck and frame perfectly. Works great for my home plow.

  • Installation of Curt Front Mount Hitch on 2020 GMC Sierra 1500
    We haven't had a chance to install the # C31088 on the 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 or similar models yet so we do not have an installation video at this time. The best I can offer are the written instructions which I attached below. The process isn't too extensive with only 6 steps to complete the installation. Trimming of the air dam is required but Curt includes a diagram in the instructions.

  • Front Mount Hitch for a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500
    We do not have pictures of the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch, part # C31088, mounted on a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 because we have not had the chance to install this combination ourselves yet. However, fear not, because our good friends at Curt have this listed as a confirmed fit. This will work with your new Sierra 1500.

  • Recommended Front Mount Hitch For A 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 With The 2.7L Engine
    The Draw-Tite # DT45MR is designed to work with the 2.7L and 3.0L engines in a 2020 GMC1500, so it will be the one I recommend for you. The Curt # C31088 is built with different brackets and will not able to be used, unfortunately. However, the # DT45MR is rated up to 9,000 pounds of line pull capacity and 500 pounds of tongue weight, so it is a highly capable hitch and will definitely serve you well.

  • Front Hitch Receiver Recommendation for a 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500
    I recommend going with the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31088 for your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500 because the receiver fits snug up to your front bumper so you only have to make a smaller cutout in the front bumper as opposed to a solid square. Attached are the installation instructions for you to check out. If you let me know what you plan on using the hitch for I can make some additional recommendations if necessary.

  • Front Mount Hitch For 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD That Doesn't Require Extensive Body Work
    Trimming is going to be needed on your 2022 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTD to install a front hitch, but just the air dam. There's simply no way around it, but it isn't body work really (though I suppose that depends on your perspective). For a front hitch that only requires 3" x 2" trimming of the air dam use the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31088.

  • Front Hitch for 2004 Fleetwood Bounder?
    We have a solution but the Curt # C31088 FRONT hitch you referenced is not a match for your Bounder motorhome. I reached out to my technical contact at Curt (Manufacturing) and he said that they don't even try to front fit motor homes. Even if you found something to fit at the front of the Chevy frame, the issue is the foot or so of trim and fascia beyond the front end of the frame. I suppose that a mechanically inclined person could try a generic hitch mount like the Curt # C13701 or...

For the 1500 series with no Turbo or Diesel, you'd use the Curt # C31088.
