Great hitch. Install went off without a hitch. (Pun intended). We had to fiddle with it a bit but went right on. It makes me wonder why the local hitch company wanted so much money for the install for something so easy. I highly recommend Curt Products.



by:

Product arrived a few days after being ordered. Box had some damage, but no big deal. Everything made it without damage. Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver actually went in pretty easily. Had to persuade a couple of the holes to line up, but nothing to strenuous. Surprised that this unit bolted right over the top of the existing lightweight unit that came with the truck. Overall a pretty easy project and looks like a good strong Hitch Receiver.

2018 Chevrolet Silverado LT extended cab 4 doors.Excellent quality, perfect welds and powder coated. E Trailer warranty.
Fitment is factory quality, very easy to install. Receiver sits about two inches below bumper but not an eye sore.
Sits flush with the bumper when looked from above.
Very happy with quality and ease of install, detailed instructions, diagrams and photos.
Extremely happy with how it performs.
I use it to tow a car trailer, motorcycle trailer and a boats. Customer service is top notch, all questions and concerns answered. Videos are available for the DIY, I definitely recommend E Trailer, customer for life.
Many Thanks.

The Curt receiver arrived on time and is beautiful! The powder coating on it is exceptional and looks great on my truck. All of the holes for hardware lined up perfectly and it was really simple to install. The instructions gave all of the torque specs for the hardware which made it easy to install as well. If I ever need another receiver for a truck, I will not hesitate to buy this again. etrailer.com was great to work with too. The product shipped quickly, arrived quickly, and everything was smooth and easy. Thanks for a great experience.



by:

Hitch is awesome. Class 4 may be slight overkill for pulling a pontoon boat, but for a few bucks more might as well upgrade the hitch. Shipping is very fast. Very easy install for anyone that has the proper tools to do the job. Saved over $100 by purchasing from here and installing myself.



by:

The online video was a great walk though for the installation. I didn’t have any help so I rigged a wooden shaft through the receiver then cut a slot that excepted the spare tire winch cable and cranked it up into position. Perfect fit and was a Piece of cake!
Thanks, I will not hesitate to recommend you to anyone needing trailering accessories.

No Issues and solid as it was when we installed it.

The ordering process was very easy. I received my order a day earlier than the expected delivery date and the hitch fit just like it said it would.
Very pleased with how it looks and how well it tows. Not planning on towing anything bigger than a small 5'x 8' trailer for yard work and it did just that, with ease.

Extremely easy install, Every hole lined up and every bolt fit properly. It is rather difficult with one person, but I found a way using a jack and a 4x6 post. I have had this on for a few month now and it has performed exactly how i had hoped.

In order for me to help you find the correct fit for your application, I will need to know the year, make, model of the vehicle you are attaching this to.

Easy to install. I had to remove my existing OEM bumper pull set up to install this but that took no time had it all completed in about 45 minutes.



by:

Bolted up perfectly. Took approximately 30 minutes and that was with removing the old receiver first. Would definitely recommend this product

2017 Chevrolet Silverado

I just purchased a new 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 4.3 L V6, 8ft bed, base model truck, with no options. The truck is rated to tow a 5900 lbs trailer with a CGVW limit of 11000 lbs. I will be towing a Lance 1985 travel trailer, that weighs in around 4500 lbs wet. With excellent reviews and outstanding installation videos from etrailer.com, I ordered the Curt C14006 class IV hitch; the Tekonsha proportional Prodigy P3 brake controller; the Tekonsha plug-in wiring adapter specified for my truck; Cipa custom slip-on towing mirrors; and the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket - HM40975 specified for my truck. All new Chevy Silverado 1500's (even the base model with no options) comes from the factory pre-wired with a basic seven wire trailer towing harness already installed. Everything electric just plugged in without a single cut or splice of the wiring or any other wiring modifications. I just followed the instructions in the excellent installation videos on the etrailer.com website. The hitch installed quickly and lined up perfectly with factory bolt holes already on the truck frame, no drilling required. Finally I slipped on the Cipa custom towing mirrors and I was ready to tow after about two hours work. If I would have ordered my truck with a factory tow package, integrated brake controller, and extendable towing mirrors, the options would have run me slightly over $1450 on a new Chevy truck. Instead, I spent two hours of my own time doing the installations and paid about $550 for all the parts by ordering by from etrailer.com. Nice savings. You need to have a good set of socket and open end wrenches, including a torque wrench adjustable to a minimum of 110 ft/lbs for the hitch bolts. Spend some time and review all the installation videos for the parts that you need to order. The etrailer.com website also has downloadable installation instructions provided by the parts manufacturers.

Good hitch receiver at a great price! Installation was fairly simple, it fit just like it said and there was NO DRILLING REQUIRED!!!! It does take a little longer that the 20 min. that it says it will but everyone is different. I look forward to pulling my camper all over this summer with it! I would recommend this item to anyone looking for an aftermarket hitch receiver for their Chevy Silverado.

I received my hitch in a fair amount of time after ordering. It came complete with mounting hardware and instructions. I had it mounted and ready to tow in about a half hours time. Everything matched right up. I would highly recommend this product to anyone wanting to do it yourself at a reasonable price.

Its great. Survived a rear end accident back in November. Highly recommend it to anyone.

Thanks for the follow up Roy, it is always recommended to have a hitch that was involved in an accident be thoroughly inspected for any signs of stress, or damage to the hitch itself or to the vehicle mounting locations. If there is any doubt please consider replacing the hitch.

  • Weight Capacity of a 2015 Chevy Silverado 4x4 Double Cab, 3.42 Rear End, and a 5.3 Engine
    The max trailer weight capacity of your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4x4 double cab, with a 3.42 rear end and a 5.3 engine that has the trailer package is 9,200 lbs. You can verify this by checking this with your copy of your owner's manual.

  • Does Capacity of Ball Mount Change if Used in Rise Position
    The towing and tongue weight capacity of the Curt Ball Mount # C45338 does not change if you use it in the rise position; it has a tongue weight capacity of 1,000 lbs and towing capacity of 10,000 lbs no matter if you use it to get 8-1/4 inches of drop or 7 inches of rise. Keep in mind your capacity is limited to that of your truck and hitch receiver. For example, the Curt Trailer Hitch # C14006 for your 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 also has a tongue weight capacity of 1,000 lbs and towing...

  • Is The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 14301 The Correct Fit For A 2012 Chevy Silverado 1500
    The three mounting bolts on each side of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 14301 will be more than enough to secure the trailer hitch to your 2012 Chevy Silverado 1500. I've attached a video below that will help walk you through the installation.

  • Recommended Hitch Motorcycle Carrier with Ramp for 400-lb BMW on 2015 Chevrolet Silverado
    For a 400-lb motorcycle you will want a carrier rated for more than this weight, to give you some safety margin, such as the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979033, which has a 500-lb capacity and a 39-inch ramp. To lock it to your hitch use # e98880. Your hitch receiver must also have the tongue weight (TW) capacity required for the combined weight of the 95-lb carrier plus the weight of your BMW. Ideally you would use this carrier in a hitch like the Curt # C14006 which has a 1000-lb TW rating.

    I have a solution for you, but we do not offer, not have I ever seen any type of adjustable trailer coupler like you mentioned and we do not have any bumper mounted hitches for your Silverado. I understand not wanting to add an aftermarket hitch, when a bumper pull might do the job, but since those are so limited you really are best served by adding an aftermarket hitch like the Draw-Tite # 76016 . Adding an aftermarket hitch will allow you to tow your current trailer safely, plus give...

  • Will Trailer Hitch for 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 Fit 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500?
    There are quite a few trailer hitches for the 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500, but none that fit both a 2002 and 2014 model. To add a hitch to your '14 Chevy Silverado 1500 I recommend the Curt # C14006, which is a Class IV hitch with a 2" receiver and 10,000 lb towing capacity. It is a complete bolt-on installation that will not require any drilling, as you can see in the video I've linked showing it being installed on a 2014 Silverado.

  • Is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C14006 for a GMC Sierra/Chevy Silverado 1500 Rated for a WDH
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C14006 which is a fit for a 2014 - 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 Limited and 2014 - 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD is rated for use with a weight distribution system. The capacities would be 12,000 lbs gross trailer weight and 1,200 lbs tongue weight when used with a weight distribution system. For a weight distribution system, I recommend the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System part # C17501.

  • Hitch Availability for a Box Van 2000 Ford E-450
    Since your truck has a box van on it there is a solution for installing a hitch, but a custom fit one like the # C14006 would not work. I spoke to my contacts at Curt and Reese and the only styles of hitches that can be made to fit a box van like yours are multi-fit RV hitches like the # 41990 that has a 16k capacity. This is a weld on hitch that would require either the 7 inch drop brackets part # 4907 or the 16 inch brackets part # 4916.

    The Curt Hitch part # C19031 that you referenced is a universal fit hitch that is designed to fit several vehicles. The distance between the mounting holes is 10-1/2 inches. Most likely there would be drilling for installation. A better solution for you would be a custom fit hitch designed to fit the frame of your truck. This will provide you with a hitch that will fit without modification and will have a much higher capacity. The most popular option we carry is the Curt Hitch part #...

I attached a portion of the install instructions that covers this. The hitch in question is a bumper hitch which basically puts a ball on the bumper.

    I'll start this out by saying that weight distribution hitches like the Curt Weight Distribution System # C17341 are not vehicle specific; as long as you've got a 2" hitch receiver like the Curt # C14006, or the factory hitch, this weight distribution system will fit in the 2" receiver you've got.

    The Curt Class IV Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14006 referenced in your question features a towing capacity of 10,000 pounds and a tongue weight capacity of 1,000 pounds. Based on my research, this does appear to be an upgrade over the factory hitch on your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 with regards to its capacity. I do recommend verifying this by checking the capacity of your existing hitch, which should be labeled with a sticker right on the hitch or in your copy of the owner's manual. With...

If you'd like a hitch with a bit more capacity (which could be limited by the towing capacity of the truck if it's lower), the Curt Class IV hitch, part # C14082 is what I'd recommend.
