Expert Answers about Chevrolet Bumper Hitch


  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch C11367 Deform the Bumper Fascia of 2015 BMW 435i
  • You are correct that when the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class I # C11367 is installed, it will move the steel bumper closer to the bumper fascia by the width of the mounting bracket. However, this will not negatively impact or deform the bumper fascia. If installing the hitch caused problems at the bumper fascia, the manufacturer would state that the hitch requires trimming of the bumper fascia or they would not list the hitch as a fit for the vehicle. The # C11367 requires no trimming...

  • What is the Difference Between the Towable and Non-Towable Bumper on a 2002 Toyota Tundra
  • The difference between a 2000 Toyota Tundra with a towable bumper and a non-towable bumper is that the model with the towable bumper will have a cutout in the center of the bumper for a hitch ball wheres the model with the non-towable bumper will not have a cutout in the center of the bumper for a hitch ball. The trailer hitch receiver I recommend for your Tundra is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13184 because it will fit models both with the towable bumper and models with the...

  • Class V Trailer Hitch for 1972 Ford F250 with Barden Bumper
  • I am unfamiliar with the Barden Bumper and in my research, I could not find any specific information regarding the Barden Bumper. Our trailer hitches are not tested with aftermarket bumpers. We have two bumpers that have been determined to be a fit for your truck with a factory bumper. The # BWHDRH25122 is for standard and step bumpers and the # BWHDRH25198 is for deep drop bumpers. I recommend measuring from your frame to the bottom of your bumper to know how much distance you will need...

  • RV Bumper Hitch That Fits A 4" x 4" Bumper

  • Can a Trailer Hitch be Installed on a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 with Ranch Hand Bumper Installed
  • If the ranch hand bumper is the same thing as a cowboy bumper or deep drop bumper then none of the hitches for the 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 are confirmed to fit because they are not tested on truck models with alternate bumpers. You would have to put the old bumper back on. If the factory hitch is the one welded to the frame then you would need # C15809 if you did install the factory bumper. This hitch fits below the factory hitch. I have linked instructions and a video showing installation...

  • Can Bumper Mount Hitch Work With 2018 Chevy Colorado LT Factory Step Bumper Hitch
  • As long as you have full access to the underside of the bumper mounting holes, through the step bumper, and they measure 8-3/4 inches center to center then you may be able to mount the Curt bumper mount hitch # E-3S without removing the step bumper. However, when speaking with my contact at Curt, they mentioned this type of hitch is meant for RV's. He also confirmed that in most cases, the factory bumpers would not fit this hitch. The length of the bolts that are included with the...

  • Are there Aftermarket Trailer Hitches Available that will Fit Behind Bumper on a Honda Odyssey 2008
  • Unless the vehicle manufacturer includes a hitch cut out on all the trim levels of a vehicle, the aftermarket hitches will usually either sit below the rear bumper, or require to trim or notch the rear bumper to allow for hitch installation. We do not carry any hitches that will fit behind the rear bumper of a 2008 Honda Odyssey. You will be able to see the hitch, but it does not stick out beyond the rear bumper. I have added a link below to the instructions for Draw-Tite part # 75270....

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1987 Chevy C/K 1500 With a Deep Drop Bumper
  • A deep drop bumper is a bumper that hangs further below the frame than a standard bumper. Check out the photo that I attached showing a deep drop bumper compared to a standard bumper and a step bumper. We have three frame mount trailer hitches that will work with a deep drop bumper on your 1987 Chevrolet C/K 1500. You could install the Curt Hitch, # C13099 or the Draw-Tite Hitch, # 41504.

  • Will Curt Bumper Mount Trailer Hitch # E-3S Fit a 2007 Toyota Tacoma Bumper
  • The Curt Bumper Hitch, part # E-3S, is made to attach to a truck step bumper. It is a universal fit design so it is not listed for a specific vehicle. The mounting holes are 8-1/2 inches center to center between the holes. If your 2007 Toyota Tacoma has a step bumper and has mounting holes with the 8-1/2 inch dimension then it will bolt to your bumper. If you do not have holes that will line up with the hitch then you can still use the hitch but you would have to drill new holes. I am...

  • Will CURT Bumper Trailer Hitch # E-3S Fit a 2005 Chevy Silverado with Southern Comfort Package
  • From what I could find, the Southern Comfort package on a 2005 Chevy Silverado did not affect the bumper. What you can do to determine if the CURT Bumper Mount Trailer Hitch, # E-3S, will fit is to measure the area of the bumper where the hitch will install and compare that to the dimensions of the hitch. The top flat part of the hitch is 11 inches by 4 inches. The bolt holes closest to the receiver opening are 8-3/4 inches apart on center. The other set of bolt holes is 6 inches apart...

  • If you 2000 GMC Jimmy has a rear step bumper and the mounting hole spacing is 8-3/4 inches on center then the Curt 2 inch Bumper Hitch, item # E-3S, will work on your vehicle. The towing capacity of the hitch will be the lowest rated item in the system which are the vehicle, bumper or hitch itself, whichever is lowest.

  • Why Does Curt Hitch C15803 Not a Confirmed Fit with Aftermarket Bumper
  • Aftermarket bumpers are different sizes and shapes compared to the factory bumpers so the hitches we offer like the part # C15803 are designed to fit and clear the factory bumpers but since the aftermarket bumpers are a different size there's not easy way to tell if the hitch would also fit with it and not interfere.

  • Is Curt Bumper Mounted Hitch Receiver Safe to Use on a 2022 Grand Design Imagine XLS Travel Trailer
  • The Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # E-100 is a universal hitch fit that can be installed on your 2022 Grand Design Imagine XLS Travel Trailer as long as it has a 4"x4" bumper. While this hitch does have a 350 lb weight rating, if your bumper isn't rated for very much weight then it is still possible to overload your bumper even if you haven't gotten close to the weight rating of the hitch so it's best to check the weight rating for your bumper as well. If the weight of the rack...

  • Why Does The Bumper Beam Get Removed to Install Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch On A 2019 Jaguar F-Pace
  • The Draw-Tite hitch part # 76026 requires the removal of the bumper beam on the 2019 Jaguar F-Pace because the hitch basically takes the place of the bumper beam. The design of the Draw-Tite hitch does not allow the bumper beam to bolt back on with the hitch installed because the Draw-Tite hitch is a bit longer. The Curt Class III Hitch design part # C13291 has a shorter rounded design which allows the bumper beam to fit over it.

  • Recommended Bumper Hitch for a 1988 Fleetwood Yukon Wilderness with 4-1/4 x 4 Bumper
  • I have a solution for you, but the Ultra-Fab 2" Motor Home Trailer Hitch Receiver part # UF35-946401 will only fit bumpers up to 4" x 4" . For your 4-1/4" x 4" bumper, I recommend the Buyers Products RV Bumper Receiver Hitch item # 337RVA24.

It's perfect for a bike rack, cargo carrier, or any other cargo accessory. Keep...

  • Bumper Mounted Trailer Hitch for RV That Mounts Underneath Bumper
  • The only solution really is a new trailer hitch receiver because the Swagman RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # S64025 is a clamp-on designed only to be mounted above the the bumper and doing otherwise compromises the safety and integrity of both the hitch and your RV.

  • I can help you find the highest rated weight capacity hitch for the 1993 Ford F-150 Flareside. The F-150 of that year had two bumper styles, standard step bumper or deep drop bumper.
