Hi there Silverado owners. Today in your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install BMWs Class 5 Trailer Hitch Receiver. And this is what our hitch looks like when it's installed. For the most part, our cross tube's going to be hidden behind the bumper, so you're really only going to see the receiver and the safety chain loops here at the back. And I do like the way the safety chain loops are so big and robust, it kind of gives it a more rugged look here at the back of our truck.It's a Class 5, two inch by two inch receiver. So this baby's going to be able to handle just about anything that you can throw at it. more

But let's take a closer look at some of the differences between all of them.Right off the bat, just looking at our hitches you can already see that our Draw-Tite is going to have a completely different design than our CURT or our etrailer hitches. Is going to have that round crosstube opposed to the square, and it is going to have a different attachment point. more
