What is a Roll Ban Bumper when Looking at Trailer Hitch Fits for a 1989 Chevy S-10
Question:
Looking at your trailer hitches for my 89 S-10. It says will not fit vehicles with roll pan bumpers. What does that mean.

If you take a look at the picture I have included the truck in it has a type of roll pan bumper. Essentially it is a bumper that matches the contours of the vehicle instead of protruding out like a regular step bumper.
If your 1989 Chevy S-10 has a regular bumper then you can use Curt hitch # C13021. If it has a roll pan bumper then use # 13920.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend 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 have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
And for trailer wiring you can use wiring harness # HM41115 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the truck.
