This will fit your 1985 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup as long a you have an 8 foot bed and a deep drop bumper.

You will have to drill six 7/32 inch holes in order to install this Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C13099, but you will not need to do any welding.

If you had a 6 foot bed, you would want a Curt Trailer Hitch, part # 13028.

I attached installation instructions for all of these hitches below for you to check out also.
