7-Way Adapter Recommendation for 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 w/ Truck Bed Camper

Question

Question:

I have a truck bed camper for my 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 that uses a 7-way connector. I need a 7-way installed in the bed of the truck since the camper 7-way won't reach the one at the rear. Is there any easy way to do that?

We have 7-way kits designed for your situation that are a confirmed fit for your 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 like the Curt # C56000. This installs inline with the 7-way at the rear of your Silverado and gives you a way to install a second one further up in the truck bed so that you camper can easily reach it.

Answer 5

Hey Ted, so if you look in the bed of your truck and see 5 holes/pucks that would mean you have the OEM prep. I'd assume if you had it you'd have seen them by now. If you had it you'd only need a ball like the part #C60618. If you…
