Question:

Expert Reply:
We have two front mounted hitches that will fit your 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 truck. Of the two, I recommend the Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch, # 65028.
The Draw-Tite hitch is custom-fit and will install on the front of your Silverado with no drilling required. Some trimming of the bumper air dam and fascia may need to be done to properly fit hitch to the truck.
I like the Draw-Tite hitch over the Curt Hitch, # 31108, becauce the Draw-Tite hitch has the same weight capacities, similar construction, and similar installation as the Curt hitch, but at a more economical price.
