Front Hitch Recommendation for a 2005 GMC Sierra HD
Question:
I own a 2005 GMC Sierra. I pull a 23 foot travel trailer with it. I am interested in a front mount hitch to use for increased maneuverability while parking. The tongue weight of my trailer is about 500 lbs. dry, but fully loaded it could be closer to 800 lbs. Do you have a product that can accommodate that type of weight for short term usage? Thank you,

Expert Reply:
For a front hitch for your 2005 GMC Sierra we have the Draw Tite hitch part # 65028 which has a 500 lb vertical line pull rating. I can't recommend you exceed this figure with the weight of your trailer loaded though. Even for a short period of time.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
