Expert Answers about Chevrolet Clevis Hitch


  • Recommended 2-Tang Clevis for 3 Inch Trailer Hitch
  • It sounds like you are looking for a 2-Tang clevis hitch for the 3" receiver on your vehicle. Since there is no 3" option I recommend the Gen-Y 2-Tang Clevis for 2-1/2" Hitch Receivers - 21,000 lbs # 325-GH-069. Along with this clevis hitch you will need the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves - 3" to 2-1/2" or 2" # C45408. This adapter will allow you to use the clevis hitch with your 3" receiver.

  • Clevis Hitch For a 2" Hitch with a 2,000 lb. Tongue Weight Capacity and 2-1/2" Tang Spread
  • The 2-Tang Clevis for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mount # 358CLEVIS has a spread of 2-1/2" between the tangs. You would also need the BulletProof Hitches Adjustable 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitch # BPH64FR. The combination of this clevis and mount is the only way that we have a clevis with a 2-1/2" spread, 2,000 lb. tongue weight capacity and fits a 2" hitch available.

  • Clevis Hitch Connections For Trailer With Two-Tang Clevis With 1" Clevis Pin
  • If your truck has a 2" hitch receiver and you want to make connections with a 1" clevis pin then you can use the MaxxTow # MT70034 two-tang clevis rated for 5,000 pounds. If you need more capacity you could use the Convert-A-Ball # AMCC2 rated for 10,000 pounds, or the Gen-Y # 325-GH-069 rated for 21,000 pounds. You will also need a 5/8" hitch pin to hold your clevis on your truck receiver like the chrome plated JR Products # 37201065. For the equipment end you will need a 1" clevis...

  • Ball Mount to Tow Trailer With Clevis Hitch
  • We do have some options for you to tow a trailer with a clevis mount but the Buyers Products Adjustable Tri-Ball Mount # 3371802225 that you referenced doesn't have provisions for that. Instead you can either use the Convert-A-Ball # CAB-6W which comes with 3 different hitch ball sizes plus the clevis or the Curt # C45008 which has 2 hitch balls and the clevis but you need a shank like part # C17100 to mount it to for adjustability. Attached are some review videos for you to check out.

  • Recommended Shank to Fit With Dexter 2-Tang Clevis
  • The Dexter 2-Tang Clevis # T1807800 has mounting holes that will line up with the BulletProof Hitches 2-Ball Mount for 2-1/2" Hitches # MD254, but the Clevis uses 3/4" pins while the BulletProof shank uses 5/8" pins for the ball mount. So while the holes line up, the Clevis requires slightly larger pins so it's going to have some play. While this will technically work, the larger pin holes mean they can get elongated over time so I recommend using the Replacement Shank for Curt Adjustable...

  • Availability of B&W Clevis Adapter with 1" Pin Hole
  • While there are no clevis adapters with a 1" diameter hole, the 1-1/8" hole on the Clevis Adapter for B&W Tow & Stow 3" Ball Mounts # BWTS35300B will work just fine if you are towing at low speeds like a typical farm application. If you do plan on towing a trailer with a clevis at higher speeds then it would be better to have one that matches with your 1" pin. We have a few different options here like combining the BulletProof Hitches Adjustable 2-Ball Mount for 3" Hitch # HD306 with...

  • Clevis Pin Recommendation for 12K Shocker Hitch Impact Cushioned Adjustable Clevis
  • The Shocker Hitch Impact Cushioned Adjustable Clevis # SHK33RR has a 1-1/4" diameter hole for the clevis pin so I recommend using the Curt Clevis Pin with Handle and Clip # C45803 which has a 1" diameter, measures 5-3/4" long, and features an easy grab handle for simple installation and removal of the pin.

  • Recommended Clevis and Safety Chains for Safety Chain Loops Kit for Ram Underbed Gooseneck Hitch
  • The Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loops Kit for Ram Underbed Gooseneck Hitch part # C60618 will require a 1/2" clevis hook to latch around the safety chain loops. Therefore, you'll likely have to upgrade both the safety chains and clevis hooks since you can't use larger clevis hooks with smaller safety chains. The Fulton Safety Chain with 1/2" Clevis Hook part # FCHA0070324 will work great for this setup.

  • Can The Roadmaster Clevis Locks And Hitch Pin Lock Be Keyed Alike
  • The hitch pin and clevis pin locks # RM-304 referred to in Brad's video for the RoadMaster Receiver Hitch Lock # RM-315 do not have a keyed alike option so you would have two keys, one for the clevis locks and one for the hitch pin lock. Out of the options we currently have the # RM-304 would be the best choice for your setup since it comes with two heavy-duty clevis locks keyed a like and a hitch pin lock all in one package.

  • Distance from Clevis hole to End of Ball Mount on Curt ATV Ball Mount
  • I've attached a diagram to show some other helpful measurements for the Curt Ball Mount for 2" ATV Hitches # C45009 . The measurement from the center of the clevis hole to the end of the hitch is approximately 10"; it is approximately 7-1/2" from the center of the clevis hole to the center of the hitch pin and approximately 2-1/2" from the center of the hitch pin to the end of the ball mount. It is also 6" from the center of the hitch pin to the center of the ball mount.

  • What Are the Weight Ratings for the 2-Tang Clevis for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mounts
  • The 2-Tang Clevis for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mount # 358CLEVIS itself is rated for 20,000 lbs. This piece alone is not going to have a tongue weight rating, the channel mount with drawbar is not included with the # 358CLEVIS. It is just the 2-tang clevis. You would need to get the channel mount with drawbar like the BulletProof Hitches Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # HD206. This would provide you with the channel mount with drawbar and that would have the tongue rating. The # HD206...

  • Tongue Weight Raiting of Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Clevis Hitch
  • The Conver-A-Ball clevis hitch, part # AMCC2, has a maxium tongue weight rating of 2,000 pounds. This hitch has a polyurethane interior that works like a shock absorber to reduce the vibration caused by towing. I've linked a video that demonstrates a the hitch in a little more detail for you.

  • Will the 2-Tang Clevis for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mount Work w/ BulletProof Hitches?
  • You should have no problem using the 2-Tang Clevis for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mount item # 358CLEVIS on your current ballmount. I say should because I have no idea which one you have but I do have the bolt hole measurements so you can confirm before ordering. The distance between mounting holes from center to center is 2". So long as your Bulletproof 6" hitch has the same spacing you will good just purchasing the item # 358CLEVIS. I have attached a dimensional diagram below. It...

  • Is the Demco 2-Tang Clevis Compatible With The Bullet Proof Adjustable Ball Mount For 2" Hitches
  • Yes the Demco 2-Tang Clevis - Adjustable Channel Mount - Black Paint - 20,000 lbs Item # DM12676-30 is compatible with the BulletProof Hitches Adjustable 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitch - 4" Drop/Rise - 14,000 lbs Item # MD204 however, I recommended keeping manufacturers the same and going with the 2-Tang Clevis for BulletProof Hitches Adjustable Ball Mount - 1" Diameter Pin - 20,000 lbs Item # 358CLEVIS. Keep in mind, when towing, you don't want to exceed the lowest weight rating of the components...

  • Will Curt Clevis Hook Attach to Curt Class V Hitch?
  • The Curt 81960 clevis hooks you referenced have a 1" opening, and the safety chain loops of Curt hitch # C15802 are approximately 1-1/8" wide so you would be able to use them, but the hooks would not quite close. For Curt clevis hooks with a larger opening there is the # C81970 which has a 1-1/3" opening, as well as the # C81980, which has an opening of 1-1/4". I've added links to video reviews of these hooks for you to take a look at as well.

  • Sounds like you possibly are looking for a hitch opening to attach to something for mounting a clevis in that is designed for a 2 inch hitch. For that we have the Combo Bar # E-9 which happens to be 6 inches in length. The pin hole though is much smaller at 5/8 inch.

  • Is B&W Clevis Adapter Compatible with 1" Diameter Pin
  • We have 3 different adapters for a B&W Tow & Stow and it all just depends on the size of your hitch receiver: 2" - # BWTS35100B 2-1/2" - # BWTS35200B 3" - # BWTS35300B These have 1-1/8" diameter holes for the clevis pin and will do just fine if you're going to be towing at slower speeds. If you will be towing at higher speeds then we'll want to get you something that has 1" diameter holes just to help eliminate play. For example, BulletProof Hitches has their 2-Tang Clevis # 358CLEVIS...

  • How to Use Safety Chains on a Gooseneck Trailer
  • For a safety chain that will be sufficient for most gooseneck trailers I really like the Fulton Safety Chain with Clevis Hook part # FCHA0050324. This safety chain has a grade 70 rating with large clevis hook. You will need two of them for your trailer. The end opposite of the clevis hook will attach to the nose of a trailer via a bolt and the clevis hook will attach to the gooseneck hitch you have in your truck bed. Almost all gooseneck hitches will have a set of holes that can be used...
