Easy to Install Trailer Hitch for 2020 Chevy Express Cargo Van

Expert Reply:
The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98861 is the one I recommend for your 2020 Chevy Express cargo van. When it comes to installing this hitch, it really doesn't get much easier than this. All you'd need to do is raise it and line it up with the existing holes in the van's frame. From there, just install the hardware and torque to specs. As mentioned, this hitch utilizes the vehicle's factory frame holes so there is zero drilling required. I've attached an installation video for you to check out.
To complete your towing package, I recommend:

Curt Multi-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # C45650
