Expert Answers about Chevrolet Avalanche


  • Recommended Snow Chains for 2005 Chevy Avalanche With 285/70-17 Tires
  • I took a look at the online owner's manual (which are sometimes updated) of the 2005 Chevy Avalanche, and it stated that the 1500 Series should not use tire chains because there is not enough clearance, though it also states you can use another type of traction device if it is recommended for use on your vehicle and tire size combination. For the 2500 Series the only restriction was that the chains be placed on the rear wheels. So if you have the 1500 Series Avalanche, there is a set...

  • How Much Does Class V Curt Trailer Hitch Weigh for 2003 Chevy Avalanche
  • I wouldn't know the weight of the OEM trailer hitch on your 2003 Chevy Avalanche but I can say that the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V XD - 2" # C15324 weighs in at about 45 lbs. Please note that while this does have higher weight ratings of 16K Towing/2.4K Tongue and 17K Towing/2.4K Tongue (with weight distribution) if the weight ratings of your Avalanche are lower then you will still be limited by that number.

  • Towing Capacity of 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 4WD
  • On page 4-65 of the online owner's manual for the 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 4WD the towing capacities for the two axle ratios are listed. If you have the 3.42 axle then the maximum trailer weight is 7100-lbs. If you have the 4.10 axle then the maximum trailer weight is listed as 8000-lbs. I suggest you review your own printed owner's manual to confirm your truck's towing capacity. Clearly your trailer's maximum gross vehicle weight (GVWR) of 8810-lbs exceeds that of the Avalanche so...

  • Highest Capacity Class V Hitch for 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche 2500
  • The highest capacity 2-inch hitch we offer for this vehicle is the Curt Class V Receiver Hitch # C15324. This bolt-on no-drill hitch is rated for 16K towing and 17K towing with weight distribution. There are no 5th wheel installation kits for the 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche 2500. The vehicle is rated to tow as much 12,000-lbs with a standard receiver hitch like the Curt, when properly equipped, but the short bed just does not allow for 5th wheel hitch installation.

  • How to Choose the Correct Ball Mount for a 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche 4x4 with 18 Inch Wheels
  • To determine which ball mount you will need to tow your pop up trailer with your 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche, you will need to take two measurements. The first measurement is your hitch height.

  • Determine Dexter Axle Capacity Based on Diameter
  • I can help you pretty easily identify the axle capacity of the trailer but it will require you to measure the diameter of the axle. Compare the axle diameter to the following list to see what capacity you have: Typical Axle Diameters Based on Axle Capacity - 1,000-lb - 2,000-lb Axles: 1-1/2 inch - 1-3/4 inch diameter - 3,500-lb Axles: 2-3/8 inch diameter - 6,000-lb - 7,200-lb Axles: 3 inch diameter - 8,000-lb Axles: 3-1/2 inch diameter - 9,000-lb Axles: 4 inch diameter - 10,000-lb...

  • Is Factory Trailer Hitch on a 2013 Chevy Avalanche Strong Enough to Tow a 7,200 Pound Travel Trailer
  • The hitch on your 2013 Chevy Avalanche was given its rating based on its design and where it mounts on the truck. Since your trailer weighs 7,200 pounds you are still below the 8,000 pound weight carrying capacity and well below the 15,000 pound capacity with weight distribution. A more heavy duty hitch is not required for this trailer. Please also consult the truck owners manual for the towing capacities of your specific model. Which ever has the lower capacity, the hitch or the truck,...

  • Lift Kit that Can Fit 1997 Coleman Key West Pop Up Camper

  • Towing a 5,400 Pound Horse Trailer with a 2005 Chevy Avalanche
  • The first thing I recommend is to check out the towing capacity of the hitch you have installed on your 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 4 X 4 . You will want to make sure the hitch is rated to be able to use a weight distribution system and you do not want to exceed the towing capacity of the lowest rated component of a system. You will want to make sure your trailer is capable of using a weight distribution system. Many aluminum trailers do not allow weight distribution. If it is not stated...

  • Number of Plugs on K-Source Replacement Side Mirror for 2007 Chevy Avalanche
  • The K-Source Replacement Side Mirror # KS62160G that fits your 2007 Chevy Avalanche only has one plug, which supports the power adjustment, heated glass, power folding and memory, as well as LED turn signal and puddle lamp if you have those on your mirror. This mirror does not support the auto-dimming function, which may be what the additional plug-in is for on your '07 Avalanche. This is a direct replacement for the driver's side mirror on your '07 Avalanche.

  • Transmission in the 2005 Chevy Avalanche for Picking Out Pan Cooler
  • The 4L80E transmission was used in the higher rated trucks and the 4L60E was used in the lighter duty trucks. Since you have a 1500 model 2005 Chevy Avalanche you would have the 4L60E transmission. The # D14204 would be the correct pan cooler then.

  • Are Rear Trailer Hitch Receivers Rated for Straight Line Pull
  • None of the rear mounted trailer hitch receivers are rated/tested for straight line pull. They are only tested/rated for gross trailer weight (GTW) and tongue weight (TW). However, I spoke to my contact at Curt who informed me that the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C15324 which is a confirmed fit for your 2006 Chevrolet Avalanche should be capable of handling up to 9,000 lbs straight line pull. If you need a mounting plate for your winch to use on the back of the above trailer hitch,...
