Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 with Long Bed
Question:
Are there any trailer hitches for the long bed? I watched an etrailer video on installation of a hitch in a regular 2000chevy Silverado 1500, and it seems like the back mounting hole in the frame of my long bed is farther back than on the regular bed. Thanks

The hitches I have linked for your 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 are ones that fit all styles according to the manufacturers. This means that regardless of the bed size the hitch will fit. The # C13175 isn't a confirmed fit for your 2000 Chevy.
If you instead have a 1500 with 10 inch deep drop bumper or aftermarket roll pan bumper you will need a different style hitch.
A great Class III trailer hitch for your 2000 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is the # 41534. I went out to our warehouse and took center to center hole dimensions of this hitch for you to compare to your vehicle's frame, I have linked them to the page for you to better see. I have also linked the product and the other hitches that are a fit for a 1500 with standard bumper to this page for you to see.
I have also linked it's installation instructions to this page for your viewing convenience.
