2007 Isuzu N-Series

Installed on 2007 Isuzu NPR chassis with frame extensions for bumper brackets.
This hitch DOES fit. Actual hitch width is 33.75 inches so it fit perfectly between the bumper bracket extensions. Slid in Like buttah.
Hardware length allowed for avoiding a bolt head protruding from the frame and installing double shims from underside. Very helpful.
5.5 inch drop put receiver below the bumper. Thank you etrailer for pictured measurements.

Still great.

Hitch was falling out of the box when delivered. But will do its purpose. Fast shipping

There are only so many ways to describe a trailer hitch.



by:

Hitch fit good on a 74 Ford super camper special. There we two rivets on the frame for a crossmember that I ground down and drilled out because they were exactly where I wanted the front mounting hole on the hitch to be located. Other than that pretty good.

We put this hitch on my 1987 GMC 61/2' short box 4WD with a regular bumper with no problems and look real nice and real strong with good load ratings

bought two of these receiver hitches, one for my 1987 GMC V1500 SWB and one for my 1984 Chevrolet K10 SWB. both went on perfectly and look great. Haven't pulled anything yet



by:
1983 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

It came all scuffed up and with a bent mounting arm...
How do you bend a class 4 hitch...??



by:

Have not put the hitch thru any hauling duties, it was easy to install, l completed the install by myself.



by:

This was delivered extremely fast! Made it here in one piece! Can’t wait to install it. Another great products from Etrailer! Thank you guys again. Will be back soon!!

1998 International Trucks 3800 Series

Bought a 1998 international 3800 (school bus) fit is pretty good, product is superb! Packaging could be better.. had some scuffs and scratches.



by:

Nice heavy duty hitch great for my school bus good product I would go again



by:

Excellent quality, but unfortunately didnt fit, send it back and ordered correct one.
Great costumor service.

Hannah was correct and punctual with her Customer Service!!!!!!! Keep up the good work!



by:

This makes my 4th Curt hitch purchased from etrailer. 5th overall and they have all performed flawless. I pull a trailer probably 5 out of every 7 days. Always have excellent customer service from etrailer and recommend them to anyone needing a hitch.



by:

I purchased a used ambulance as a work vehicle for my company. Needed a hitch but not sure which one I would need because of the ambulance box. One phone call to etrailer with their friendly operator and a referral number to tech support and I had my answer. A couple of quick measurements and I had my hitch product number. Placed my order online on a Monday, hitch arrived on Wednesday. Drilled the required holes in my vehicle
and I was in business. Fantastic service! Between friends an family we have ordered at least 6 hitches and accessories over the last several years.

What are the measurements and demensions of this hitch? I understand that all of the Chevy GMC 1/2 and 3/4 ton pickup frames are the same between 1967 and 1972. My truck is a 1969 C/10 long bed with the coil spring suspension. Will this hitch bolt up onto my frame without having to modify either the frame or hitch?

Patrick B.

2/25/2014

You will most likely still need to drill holes for the bolts to pass through the frame and the hitch. So long as your truck has 34 inch frame spacing and a standard bumper, you will not need to modify the hitch. Check out the instruction link on the product page, it will show you what is required to install the hitch. You can compare that with your frame and get a pretty good idea of how it will all go together.


by:

good piece,,,did excellent on shipping fast!!



by:
1970 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

Shipping was very fast,customer service excellent, product looks excellent as far as welds...if it wasnt for the numerous scratches,scrapes,etc. would have given 5 stars.



by:

Hitch is beautiful, I give it 6 stars.
I
didn't expect to have to drill holes in the frame to attach it. (subtract 2, for extra work)



by:

Great product and good service.



by:
1987 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

It’s perfect, you can barely see it, very beefy



by:
1964 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup

Have not used the trailer hitch, only installed as it was one of the early steps in the frame off restoration of my 1964 Chevy truck. It was a bit more work than the videos suggest. After ordering a second hitch that was to fit my truck, I still had to do substantial drilling. Not one hole really lined up. But it sure looks secure and substancial now! Look forward to having a bit more confidence in my hitch while towing.



by:

Really nice and easy to install. It does it’s job



by:

Too easy! etrailer made the purchase and shipping so easy and the install was a breeze!



by:

Talk to the guy about the Curt hitch that went bad and he was very rude, arrogant, and didn’t have any interest in listening to my explanation of what went wrong with the prior hitch.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 1990 Chevrolet Silverado 4WD Short Bed
    I 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 you use a weight distribution hitch the rating increases to 1,200lbs of tongue weight and 12,000lbs of trailer weight.

  • Will Curt Class IV Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit 1974 Ford F-250 with Standard Bumper and 34 Inch Frame
    The Curt # C14082 will fit on your 1974 Ford F-250 as long as you have the crew cab. It does bolt on but will require drilling into the frame to install. I've attached a link that shows all of the Class IV hitch receivers confirmed to fit the different models of your F-250. If you also need a wiring harness use the Hopkins # 40105 for a 4-way connector or the Draw-Tite # 20023 for a 7-way. You might like an adjustable ball mount. The B&W Tow & Stow # BWTS10048B provides up to either...

  • Universal Hitch for a 2009 Chevrolet Savanna/Express Van School Bus
    I would be happy to help you. The reason the bolts don't look like they line up is that your 2009 Chevrolet Savanna/Express van is considered a cut away. I have a solution for you but you are not going to be able to find a custom fit hitch for your school bus. You're going to need to go with a universal one for service vehicles. I recommend the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver - Weld On - Class V - 2" item # 41990-07. This universal hitch has a bolt on installation...

  • 1966 Chevy C10 Short Bed Truck Trailer Hitch Fit
    The available frame area for a hitch to install on a 1966 Chevy C10 is different between the short and long bed trucks which is why the hitches don't fit both. So you'd need the Curt # C14082 which is a confirmed fit for the short bed truck like you have which has high towing capacities as well at 10,000 lbs.

  • Will The Curt 13900 Fit A 1979 Chevy 1/2 Ton Pickup
    For a 1979 Chevrolet 1/2 ton pickup I do have a hitch solution for you. While the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13900 is not a fit, you have multiple options to choose from depending what model you have. For a 6' or 8' bed with standard bumper # C14082 is what you're looking for while for the deep drop bumper # C13099 is instead the correct hitch. For the cab and chassis model, the Curt # 13028 would then be your choice. Included is a Help Article on this topic to refer to as well.

  • Class III and IV Hitch Recommendation to Fit 1978 GMC Sierra with 34 inch Frame
    Since you said you have a 34 inch frame that means the hitch you'd need will need to be one intended for cab and chassis models. For that we have the Curt # 13028 for a Class III and the part # C14082 which is a Class IV.

  • Does the Curt #14082 Require Modification to Work with Under Bed Mounted Spare Tire?
    Yes. I've linked a picture of a Chevy C Series with the under-mounted spare tire to show you, but the Curt # C14082 will work with the stock spare tire mounting location on your 1971 C Series pickup and you won't need to make any modifications as long as your truck has 34" frame spacing. If your 1971 C10 has a frame with different width, please let me know and I can recommend a universal hitch that will work for your truck.

  • Availability of Class IV Hitch For 1998 Mercury Mystique
    Since nobody makes a higher class hitch for the 1998 Mercury Mystique the only option is a universal weld-on hitch. I recommend the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame # 41990-07. This is a Class V hitch with a 2" receiver and 7" tall brackets. We recommend taking this to a certified welder for installation. It is also worth noting that upgrading the hitch capacity does not increase the towing capacity of your vehicle. Although the hitch can handle 16,000 lbs you will still be limited by the max towing...

    I do see that a deepdrop rear step bumper was offered on your 1972 Chevrolet K-20 pickup. If this is what you have the Curt 3-Piece Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15511 is the receiver I recommend using. Otherwise the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14082 will fit the standard bumper which came on the K-20 or one of the aftermarket step bumpers that was often used as a replacement. We do have images on our product pages with both these installed so you can see how they will fit with their style...

The highest rated hitch we have available for your Chevy K10 with the short bed and factory step bumper is the Curt Class IV # C14082.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14082 is 5" from the top of the bolt mounting flange to the top of the receiver tube.

    You would not be able to move a trailer hitch back and forth between the 1999 Suburban and 1993 Chevy 1500 because the hitches are different between these vehicles and are not interchangeable. Also, you would have to get new hardware every time. The hardware is meant to only be torqued down once and not reused. For the 1999 Chevy Suburban the most popular hitch is # C14029. For the truck the most popular option (for models with standard or step bumper) is # C14081. The recommended ball...

    The best trailer hitch option we have for a 1964 Chevrolet C10 Pickup is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C14082 which is designed for models with the standard bumper. It only has a Class IV rating but this gives you a 10,000 lb weight capacity which you really shouldn't be getting anywhere close to due to the constraints of the vehicles pulling capacity.
