Recommended Front Hitch Receiver For 2017 Chevy Colorado
Question:
I am wanting to put a Curt or Drawtite front hitch on my 2017 Chevy Colorado. I need to know how this will impact the approach angle of the front of the truck. How far down is the tube and how far out will it stick past the fascia?

For your 2017 Chevy Colorado, I recommend the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 65071 which is a confirmed fit for your truck. The receiver will sit about an inch back from the most forward part of your grill and will be just about even with your skid plate for ground clearance. I've attached a photo to assist with the look on a standard Colorado to compare.
I recommend using the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Trailer Hitches # 63232 to give you a secure lock and anti-rattle for any accessories you use in this hitch receiver.
