Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1992 Chevy S-10 with Roll Pan Bumper

Question:

I own a short bed regular cab 92 S10 2WD. Looking to add a rollpan with centered license plate. Will require a hidden style hitch mounting behind the rollpan and allowing the receiver to connect once the license plate has been flipped up. I would need to know which part #s apply for a hitch for use w/rollpan, receiver, light plug hookup, and license plate flip bracket all for my 92 S10. Can you please guide me in the right direction? Thank you!

The Curt hitch part # 13920 is designed to fit the 1992 Chevy S-10 trucks that have the factory roll pan bumper. This hitch would fit behind the license plate so it sounds like this would be exactly what you would need.

For trailer wiring you would then want the part # C55312.

Since you wanted to do 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.
