Comparison Of Curt Class lll Trailer Hitches For 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Question:

Hello, I have been looking to purchase a Curt Trailer hitch receiver. I have a 2006 Chevy Silverado, 2wd, Reg cab. Two models come up and I am not sure what one is for my truck. 13332 or 13322? Thanks

If your 2006 Silverado is a 1500, then the # 13322 and # 13332 are both designed to fit your truck.

The difference between the two hitches is the 13322 has a round tube design, and the 13332 is made with a square tube. Both hitches have the same capacities and are Class lll hitches with a 2 inch receiver opening.

If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
