What Front Mount Hitch will Provide the Most Ground Clearance on 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
Question:
Sir, How much does this hitch reduce ground clearance and approach angle on the 2014 Chevy 1500? Is the Drawtite the best hitch for best offroad ground clearance? I go to the beach a lot but also hit some semi rough trails during hunting season. Thanks!

Helpful Expert Reply:
The front mounted hitch receiver that will provide you the most amount of ground clearance on your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is the Curt Custom Fit 2 Inch Hitch, # C31069. This hitch measures 9.52 inches from the frame mounting flange to the bottom of the hitch receiver opening. I have included a picture which illustrates this measurement.
The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 65064, that you mentioned reduces ground clearance just a hair more at 9.62 inches.
I have included a link to the hitch installation instructions for you.
