asked by: Scott A
Expert Reply:
If your 1972 Chevrolet C10 pickup has a standard bumper you will want the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e88AR. Otherwise we have the Receiver # C13099 which fit the deep drop style bumper. Both these receivers are class III and rated for 6,000lbs of trailer weight using a standard Ball Mount # EBMK4. If you use a Weight Distribution Hitch # EQ37100ET the capacity of both receivers increases to 10,000lbs of trailer weight with a tongue weight up to 1,000lbs.
For the trailer wiring a 4-Way # C58044 can be combined with our 7-Way Kit # ETBC7. This will allow you to install a Brake Controller # 90195. The controller is needed for any trailer using electric actuated brakes.
