Expert Answers about Chevrolet Silverado Classic


  • Blue Ox Base Plate Kit That Fits a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado Classic
  • No, the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1674 is not the correct base plate kit for your 2007 Chevrolet Silverado Classic and will not fit. The correct Blue Ox base plate kit for your truck is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1682 which fits the 1500 LD or the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1660 for the 1500 HD, 2500 or 3500. To flat tow your Silverado, you will also need a tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring and a supplemental braking system. If you need those parts as well, I have listed them...

  • Recommended Class V Trailer Hitch for 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Classic Body
  • I spoke to my contact at Curt about your 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD Classic. They told me the Curt Class V hitch, part # C15312 is designed to fit your truck if it has the factory cutout bumper. They told me that the cutout is the recessed area on the bumper where the license plate typically goes. this hitch has a 2 inch receiver opening. This hitch should sit right below the bumper and would be just what you are looking for. If you need a ball mount for the hitch I recommend...

  • Options For Lock on Square Tube Gooseneck Coupler
  • We do have a couple of options for locks on a square tube gooseneck coupler, though I was unable to find the brand of coupler for Quality Trailers. So what you can do is just take a look and see what brand you have, if you don't happen to know off-hand. That will allow you to choose the right coupler lock from the two below: - Bulldog/Stallion/Superior/T.E.M. Gooseneck Coupler: Blaylock EZ Lock Gooseneck Coupler Lock # BLTL-50-40D - RAM Gooseneck Coupler: Blaylock EZ Lock Gooseneck Coupler...

  • Gen-Y Glyder Shock Absorbing Ball Mount Multiple Trailer Connections
  • The Gen-Y Glyder Shock Absorbing Ball Mount # 325-GH-12001 has a bolt pattern that is unique to the Glyder. There are currently no Pintle style attachments that share that bolt pattern. I would recommend changing out your pintle trailer connection for a Pro Series Adjustable-Channel Coupler # PSA200S0303. This will bolt in place on a channel mount to give both trailers a 2" coupler. If you have a different connection on pintle trailer let me know and I will find you the correct adapter...

  • Will Derale Transmission Cooler D13502 Fit a 2007 Chevy Silverado with 5.3 Liter Motor
  • You certainly can add Derale transmission cooler # D13502 to your 2007 Chevy Silverado with 5.3 liter motor without any problems. The only accessory that I recommend with this is special fitting # D13035. If you use this fitting you won't have to cut then flare any transmission lines.

  • Will Curt Hitch, # 31108, Fit On A 2007 Chevy 2500 HD And Hold A 250 Lb. Dirt Bike
  • The Curt Front Hitch, # 31108, has a 500 lbs. tongue weight capacity. The hitch will carry the 250 lb. dirt bike, but you will want to check what the front Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) is on your 2007 Chevy 2500 HD. You will not want to exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating for your vehicle. We have the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier for 2 Inch Hitches # e98873, that has a 500 lbs. weight capacity. Also we have the Erickson Motorcycle Tie Downs, # EM05729. I am sending a link to the instructions...

  • Will an Older Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Fit New Reese Rails on a 2007 Chevy Silverado 3500
  • In order to determine if the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch you bought is compatible with the current rails, you can take a couple of measurements of the hitch and compare them to the rails. We will be looking at the feet of the hitch that attach to the rails. You will need to measure the side to side distance and front to back distance on center. Reese rails have 3 mounting slots located on the top of each rail. The distance between the outer most set is 29 inches on center. The next...

  • Should Friction Sway Control Be Used on a Trailer With Reese Strait Line Weight Distribution
  • You would not need to use a friction sway control system with a Dual Cam setup like what came with the Reese Strait Line system you have. The Strait-Line offers a much better version of proactive sway control that works to keep the trailer lined up straight as you are traveling.

  • Frame Differences Between 2007 Silverado Classic 3/4 and 1 Ton Trucks When Choosing Gooseneck Hitch
  • The 1st generation Silverado/Sierra (1999-2006 and 2007 "Classic" model) 3/4 and 1 ton models use the same frame, but the suspension found on the 1 ton 3500 is stronger. In terms of choosing a gooseneck hitch, for the 2007 Classic 2500 (same body style as the 2006), you'd want to use the B&W Turnover Ball, part # BWGNRK1067 that you mentioned. If you don't already have a trailer connector installed in the truck bed, you can install one using part # 41157. I've linked you to install instructions...

  • Reese 5th Wheel Installation Kit for 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500 Crew Cab
  • The Reese Elite Series Pre-Assembled 5th Wheel Slider Hitch # RP30144 will fit into any brand of industry-standard 5th wheel base rails (ISRs) that mount in a truck bed. As you noted, the brackets used to install such rails are vehicle-specific, but the hitch itself is not and will work in any short-bed pickup with ISRs to provide additional turning clearance for your 5th wheel. For the installation kit you can use Reese base rail kit # RP56007-53 which fits both the Classic and New Body...

  • Will the Firestone # F2250 Ride Rite fit on 2007 Chevy 2500HD with B&W Turnover Ball Gooseneck Hitch
  • I spoke with my contact at Firestone, who tells me that the frame bracket for your B and W turnover ball Gooseneck hitch will not interfere with the installation or use of the Ride Rite # F2250 Air Helper Spring. The air bag will locate between the underside of the frame member and the top of the axle, just in board of the leaf springs as shown in the diagram posted for you.

  • How to Determine if a 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic 1500 is an LD or HD
  • The "LD" stands for light duty for the 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic. There was also an HD that had the rear axle/suspension of the 2500 series. An HD would have 8-lug wheels. Yours look like 6-lug wheels which would mean it is an LD but since they are aftermarket wheels I can't be 100 percent sure. The HD models also came with recovery (tow) hooks as standard equipment. The sales code for the HDs was 15743. The HD models also had rear brake rotors that were 13 inches in diameter and 1.14...

  • How To Determine Fit of the CE Smith Bunkboard Guide-On Kit CE27600K75
  • I don't have any specifics on your boat or trailer but the main thing you need to check before using the CE Smith Bunkboard Guide-On Kit part # CE27600K75 is your frame size. This kit works with trailer frames 3" wide and up to 4-1/2" tall. However, it can also accommodate trailer frames 3" wide and up 6" tall if you use the CE Smith Extra-Long U-Bolt Kit part # CE11416. If your trailer frame is not 3" wide or taller than 6" tall then you would need to combine part # CE27609PG (4), part...

  • Round Step Running Board for 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic
  • Although not designed for use with custom running boards, the TorkLift Talon Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs - Aluminum - Front # TLC2204A could be used as a rear support for custom running boards. The strength for a step will most likely be there, but they have not been tested for that application so would not be covered under warranty if they were to fail. My recommendation is to use the Nerf Bars designed for your vehicle as some are made to go past your cab. I've attached...

  • Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains w/ V-Bar Studs That Fit 305/70R16 Tires
  • Yes they will; the Titan chains with V-bar studs you asked about do indeed fit your 305/70R16 tires (the load range does not come into play regarding fit). The correct part number is the following: - Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains for Wide Base Tires - Ladder Pattern - V-Bar Links # TC3831 The only other thing I highly recommend adding with the Titan Chains # TC3831 are rubber adjusters to ensure a consistently tight fit, the Titan Chain RA10 Rubber Tire Chain Adjuster # TCOA2.

  • Will the Firestone Ride-Rite Airbags fit a 2007 Chevy 2500 Classic with a Pullrite Superglide Hitch
  • The Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs, # F2250, mount to the bottom of the frame rail on your 2007 Chevrolet Silverado classic body. Airbag manufacturers do not test their mounting brackets for fits with specific fifth wheel or gooseneck hitches. To determine if these bags will fit with your Superglide hitch, you will want to take a look at the mounting brackets for your hitch. As long as the mounting brackets for your Pullrite Superglide do not mount on the bottom of the frame rail...
