  • How To Chose A Timbren Silent Ride Suspension System
  • The difference between a 3,500 and 5,000 lb Timbren Silent Ride is the structural strength of the springs. Also there is a design difference in the hardware depending on what diameter and shape axle you have. Ideally, you want to match the Timbren Silent Ride up with your axle capacity. If your axle is a 5000 lb axle, you want to go with a 5,000 lb system otherwise they will not properly support the trailer and it will sag. However, if you only have 2,000 lbs on the trailer and you have...

  • Will Curt Hitch C13021 fit 1999 Chevy S-10 Stepside?
  • Curt hitch # C13021 will fit your 1999 Chevy S-10 stepside. If you are going to be towing you'd need 4-flat connector you would want to use T-One Wiring Harness # 118359. For a ball mount, I recommend checking out Ball Mount Kit # 989900, which may fulfill your towing needs in one tidy package; two ball mounts - one with a 3/4” rise or 2” drop and the other with a 2-3/4” rise or 4” drop - a 1-7/8” hitch ball, a 2” hitch ball and a pin and clip. In order to choose the correct ball mount,...

  • Can 2000 Chevrolet S-10 Extreme Pickup Be Flat-Towed
  • I did some research and found that the manual for the 2000 Chevrolet S-10 pickup states that the vehicle is not to be flat-towed. The manual states that the transmission is not designed to allow it to be towed behind another vehicle. The suggestion in the manual is to place the truck with all four wheels on a dolly like a car hauler. I wish I had better news for you but I cannot recommend anything that will allow you to flat-tow your S-10.

  • How to Connect 4-way to 1991 Chevrolet S-10 Pickup
  • To add a 4 pole trailer connector to your S-10, I'd recommend the Curt T-Connector, part # C55312.

Once installation is complete, the 4-way flat connector will be stowed beneath your Chevrolet S-10 Pickup, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket # 18144 is recommended to keep the connector secure. It is recommended that you use...

  • Yes, the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65004 is a confirmed fit for your 2001 Chevrolet S-10 ZR2. If you have the factory tow hooks then no-drilling will be required but if you don't have the factory tow hooks then you will need to drill. However, according to my research the ZR2 package came with factory tow hooks so you should not have to do any drilling. The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver has a 300 lb vertical load rating and a 9,000 lb line pull...

  • Which Trailer Hitch Fits 2003 Chevrolet S10 Sportside
  • Since you have a 2003 Chevy S10 Sportside the correct hitch you need is the # 75085. A roll pan bumper is totally smooth and basically doesn't stick out past the tailgate surface at all. A non towing bumper would still stick out further from the tailgate.

  • Recommended Class III Trailer Hitch for a 1992 Chevy S-10 Tahoe
  • I recommend using the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13021 for your 1992 Chevy S-10 with the factory step bumper because it features a hidden crosstube and an extended receiver to make it more easily accessible for attaching a ball mount or accessory. No modification is necessary but you will need to temporarily remove your bumper/fascia to install this. If you let me know what you plan on using this trailer hitch for I can make additional recommendations for you.

  • Does a Trailer Hitch Receiver From a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Fit a 1997 Chevy S-10
  • We carry hitches to fit your 1997 Chevrolet S-10 but a hitch from a Grand Cherokee isn't the same design. The distance between the frame and the way the hitch attaches to the frame are significantly different. Trailer hitches are custom made for specific vehicles and it's rare that a hitch for one fits another unless they have the same frame. For example, Draw-Tite # 75085 if for the S-10 as well as the GMC Sonoma, the GMC S-15, and the Isuzu Hombre. I've attached a link to all of the...

  • Do You Carry a Custom-Fit Truck Mat for My 1999 Chevy S-10 with a 6-Ft. Bed?
  • I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, we do not carry customized bed mats to fit your 1999 Chevy S-10 6-ft. bed. However, we do have a BedRug Universal Truck Bed Mat - Bed Floor Cover for Trucks with Drop-In Liners # BMX00D. Since the BedRug mat is 5-1/2 feet wide and over 8 feet long in length, it is more than large enough for the bed of your 1999 Chevrolet S-10 Pickup so it could be trimmed down to size easily. The mat installs quickly over your drop-in liner using threaded, plastic studs.

  • What Size Hitch Ball Will Fit my 2002 Chevrolet S-10 Bumper Ball Hole
  • In order to make a proper selection for a hitch ball, you will need to find out what diameter size ball your trailer needs. It should be stamped on the trailer coupler or frame, either 1-7/8 or 2 inch. All bumper ball holes are 3/4 of an inch, so you will need to pick a ball with a 3/4 inch shank diameter. The ball you were looking at, part # A-82, is a 3/4 inch shank diameter and is a 2 inch diameter ball. If you need a 1-7/8 inch ball, you would use part # A-80. Those are our only stainless...

  • We do have a Curt Class III hitch, part # 13920 that's compatible with the roll pan on your S-10, as long as the roll pan is factory installed, and not aftermarket.
