Distance From Center of Hitch Pin Hole To Bumper on CURT Front Mount Trailer Hitch # 31322

Question:

I want to know what the distance is from the hitch pin hole to the edge of the bumper and how much it varies from the hidden hitch on a 2011 chevy silverado 1500 FRONT HITCH. Please help!

I contacted our representative at CURT about the CURT Front Mount Trailer Hitch # 31322. He informed me that the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole, to the front edge of the bumper measures approximately 7 inches.

We do not have a Hidden Hitch front mount hitch available for the 2011 Silverado, but we do have a Draw-Tite model, part # 65052. The Draw-Tite hitch distance should be near the same distance as the CURT hitch as it will sit near the same location.

When using any hitch accessory, you will want to check the measurement on the product page for the distance from the hitch pin hole to the edge of the accessory. You will need to use accessories that have 7 inches or more of clearance, to clear your front bumper.

I have linked instructions for the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch # 31322. Also attached is a picture from CURT showing the hitch installed on a 2011 GM truck.
