How to Determine Correct Brackets for Draw-Tite Service Body Trailer Hitch

Question:

Do you know if this would work for a 1975 Chevy Suburban or would I need one with taller side plates?

In order to determine the brackets that may work for the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Cross Tube - Class V - 2" # 41990 (44" wide) you are going to need to measure to determine if you need the 7" Weld-On Bracket Kit # 4907 or 16" Weld-On Bracket Kit # 4916 because this hitch is not designed for one specific vehicle like your Suburban.

Simply measure from the top of the frame on your '75 Suburban to the bottom of the bumper. If you need less than 5-9/16" to clear the bumper you will use 7" brackets # 4907; if you need less than 14-3/8" you will use the 16" brackets # 4916.
