Specially designed for heavy-duty towing, this fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Powder coated steel is sturdy and corrosion resistant.by: Alan11/28/2022
2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
Hitch is very heavy duty but seemed to have been delivered by Ace Ventura. Was very scratched up. Hitch bolted right up on a 2007 GMC 1500 HD. The height of the hitch exactly matched the original. Spare tire does not need to be removed. Per the instructions, you are supposed to re-use the existing aft most frame bolts. Be aware that if you use those, they only engage the weld nut by 3/16 of an inch. That is short of fully maximizing the weld nut. Ideally, the bolt threads should go all the way thru the weld nut plus about 2 threads. I replaced those aft bolts with longer ones that fully engage the weld nut. Since the new hitch does not attach to the bumper, I fabbed a custom Z bracket, using 2 pieces of angle iron, to help carry the load. The light plug assy needed to also be modified. The factory angle is 90 degrees, but the wire harness would bot engage the plug assy. I modified the plug bracket as can be seen in the photos.

I bought this for my 02 Chevy 1500HD. It bolted on perfectly and is ideal for pulling heavier loads. I’ve pulled max payload loads for the truck with this new hitch and it has worked with no trouble. Would suggest to anyone.
by: Jason10/10/2022
Website said it would fit perfectly for my 2004 Chevy 2500HD. It did not. I had no option to return as I needed to tow the following day so had to work into the night to customize it which therefore I wouldn’t be able to return. I had to use a torch to cut a section out of both sides on the hitch to have it fit around the spring shackle and had to use the torch to make a new bolt hole in the frame closest to the front for that bolt hole. Also drops the receiver an inch lower than the factory height. Was not at all happy but was thankful I had the tools to make it work. Worst thing I hate is that it’s dropped lower than the stock receiver height.

I am sorry to hear that this hitch did not fit your application. I see that this hitch is not a confirmed fit for any of the Chevy HDs. This is only a confirmed fit for the Chevy 2500LD and 1500.

The trailer hitch is great simple installation but I had to change hooks on my chain from my trailer other than that top notch

I brought this to my local garage to install it, and they were amazed at the quality. They wondered if I was going to start to haul Mack trucks around or what? It has had zero defects all the holes lined up perfectly to my truck.

Awesome. Still hold strong after 1 year. Handles heavy loads without issues. Still please with this purchase and the easy of installation.

2005 GMC Sierra
This is a heavy duty 2" receiver trailer hitch (C1523). The 3/8" steel it is made of is the way to go. Aside from the capacity of the hitch one really great features is that the safety chain hook holes are large enough for 3/8" clevis slip hooks. Most hitches don't seem to have holes that are too small.

Great however had to sell truck as frame gave out

2012 GMC Sierra
Great price, quick shipping even with the pandemic going on. Had a little trouble installing this heavy duty hitch by myself but went on very easy with no issues.
I have not pulled anything yet, but don't expect any issues with this 16k rating on a 1/2 ton truck.

Ford
I had purchased a 2006 gmc savanna Thomas short bus and needed a hitch for it. The frame was not a normal savanna width. Searching the etrailer site I found drawings of a hitch I believed would work. I needed to enlarge 2 holes to 5/8inch, clean up 2 1/2 inch holes, and drill 2. 1/2 inch holes. In the end I spent more time running to store to get a needed drill bit. The hitch was installed in less then an hour. This was my 2nd hitch from etrailer the last one went on a Ford e350. Had it on in 20 minutes with my sons help. Both hitches purchased were over kill but the xtra capacity is nothing but piece of mind.
by: 02/01/2024
Only problem with this kit is the attaching screws. They were usless. I ended up thru bolting with bolts and nuts.
by: Stephen05/26/2022
Does the job. Pretty easy to install, other than somewhat heavy (needed a spare set of hands). Had to drop down spare tire to get the hitch up. Even then, spare tire is still touching hitch (tight fit).
by: Scot01/14/2021
2007 Chevrolet Silverado New Body
Bought this hitch receiver to replace the old rusted out factory hitch receiver. Bolted right up with no need to drop the spare tire. The differences between this hitch receiver and the factory one are night and day. This thing is solid. My truck will pull apart before this receiver hitch fails. Way overkill for my needs, but I will never worry about a receiver hitch failure!
by: Colin07/31/2020
2010 ChevroletSilverado
Very happy with this. Truly bolt on installation without having to modify anything. Definitely seems much stronger than the factory hitch. Its pretty heavy and awkward to do by yourself but its manageable. It took me roughly 20 minutes from start to finish. I no longer have to worry about my hitch while towing.

- Recommended Trailer Hitch For 1990 Chevrolet Silverado 4WD Short BedI have another option for you, but the Curt C15322 (now # C15323) is only confirmed to fit select 1999-2014 Chevrolet Silverado's and GMC Sierra's and will not fit your 1990 Chevrolet Silverado 4WD Short Bed. Instead I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V XD - 2" # C15325 which is confirmed to fit your truck as long as it is has the standard or step bumper and is not a crew cab. If your truck is a crew cab then you will need the # C14082 instead. I included...

For a trailer hitch, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class V XD - 2", # C15323. This is a custom fit for your vehicle and is made in the USA. There is no drilling required for installation, but the spare tire will need to be lowered or removed temporarily for installation....

Instead, the Class V hitch that does fit is from Curt: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15323 I verified with Curt that the # C15323 is a fit for your '02 Silverado 1500 HD, and is a Class V hitch with a 2,400 lbs tongue weight and 16,000 lbs towing weight capacity.
view full answer... - Will Curt Trailer Hitch 15322 Fit a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500HDThe instructions for Curt trailer hitch # C15323 do not specify light duty 1500 models or HD models. So I called my contact at Curt and he said that it WILL FIT the HD models as well so you are good to go. I also recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK2416. It comes with 2 balls, a ball mount, hitch pin with clip, and storage bag.

To complete your towing setup you may also be interested in the following products: etrailer.com Ball Mount Kit part # EBMK2416.

I have included a link to the installation details. The recommended ball mount for this hitch is # 40331 or # BWBMHD30010, and you can use ball # A-90 (2 inch diameter) or # 19286 (2-5/16 inch diameter).

view full answer... - Replacement Hitch for 2011 Chevrolet SilveradoThe pin hole in a hitch can round out, and though it is not a common problem it is something that we have seen happen. In terms of the difference in hitches for your 2011 Chevy Silverado, the higher the class rating the more heavily constructed the hitch is. The Curt class V # C15323, for example, weighs 67 lbs while the class IV # 14301 weighs 53 lbs and the class III # 13322 weighs 31 lbs. That means the thickest material is going to be on the class V, but that may be overkill; I recommend...
view full answer... - What If The Bolt Holes On The Bumper Are Rusted Away On My 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500? The 2 bolts that go into the bumper portion of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14332 are a required part of the installation. Curt will void any warranty on the hitch if it is not installed properly as per their instructions. There is no way to know how the receiver will respond without those bolts as they did not test the receiver without those bolts installed. If you wish to install this receiver I recommend either having the rusted section cut out and replaced or having the reinforcement...
view full answer... - High Capacity Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2010 Chevy Silverado 1500First, Curt hitch 15522 is going to be replaced with a new model and design so the old hitch will be obsoleted at some point. If the factory hitch is bolted on then you can install a different hitch. If it is welded on you will not be able to use a different hitch. For the most capacity then use Curt hitch # C15323. It is rated for 16,000 pounds gross trailer weight. It also has the square tube design. I have linked instructions for you. Since these ratings exceed the ability of your...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 Towing Imagine XLS MLE22Unless you were using a weight distribution system like the Strait Line part # RP66083 with the Draw Tite hitch part # 75521 it would not have the capacity for the Imagine XLS MLE22 based on the unloaded weight you mentioned. Without a WD system the hitch has a 6k trailer weight capacity so by the time your trailer is loaded it would probably weight more than that. With a WD system it has a capacity of 10,500 lbs. The Curt hitch part # C15323 has a higher capacity at 16,000 lbs without...

It will bolt onto the vehicle just fine but the issue is with the removal of the factory light duty bumper mount hitch. There was also a generation change between 2014 and 2015. Therefore, I recommend...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2009 Chevy SilveradoYou would most likely need the highest capacity hitch you can fit on your 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 based on what you plan to tow. For that we have the Curt hitch part # C15323 which is a confirmed fit. This hitch has capacities of 2,400 lbs tongue weight and 16,000 lbs total trailer weight which should be more than you need.

If you have a 10 inch Deep Drop Bumper I recommend the Curt # 13339. If you have the aftermarket Roll Pan Bumper I recommend the Curt # 13932. If you have a factory bumper then I recommend the Curt # C15323. The first 2 options are have 2 inch receiver openings but only have Class III ratings and are the only options for those styles of Sierra 1500 HDs. The 3rd option is...

This is a 2 inch hitch rated for 600 pounds tongue weight and 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight. For a higher capacity we have # C15323 that also fits below the bumper.

It will not fit a 2500HD (heavy duty) model. But on the hitch it measures approximately 6-1/2 inches from the rear most attachment point (on the vehicle) to the top of the cross tube and 9 inches to the bottom (the cross tube is approximately 2-1/2 inches square). Take a look at the picture I added with these measurements.

Product is alright. As stated in other reviews, the cut outs for the safety chain hooks are poorly designed.
