Recommended Front Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD Z71 LT

Question

Question:

I have a 2019 SILVERADO LD 1500 Z71 LT 4WD and am looking to purchase a front mount hitch. Can you confirm which one I need? The Curt model 31012 or 31069? The manufacturer has told me they cant confirm a fit for my truck but your site indicates they will work. I am just not sure which one to use for my Z71.

I recommend the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31069 for your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD Z71 LT. This receiver does not hang as low as their other Receiver # C31012 which was made taller to fit behind the front fascia used on the Tahoe, Yukon and Escalade.
