Rob: What's going on, everybody. Rob here at etrailer.com. Today, we'll be taking a look at the etrailer class three custom fit trailer hitch receiver on our 2018 Chevrolet Colorado.

I really like the matte black finish not only because it helps hide dirt, scratches and everything, but it just blends into the bottom and the black plastic that's already on our truck. Now, the hitch is going to give us a two inch by two inch receiver tube opening, which is pretty common on trucks, but it is really going to open up the options when it comes to accessories that we can mount up. more

Now, these aren't included in the kit but you can pick them up on our website.The safety chain connection points are going to be a plate style, welded to the bottom of the receiver tube as well as the cross tube, and as you can see even with really large hooks, we're still going to have plenty of room to get them on and not have to worry about any kind of interference.As far as weight capacity goes, our hitch is going to have an 800 pound tongue weight, which is the maximum downward force at the receiver tube. It's also going to have an 8,000 pound gross trailer weight rating, which is the amount it can pull including the trailer and everything you have loaded on it. Now, it is designed to work for weight distribution systems as well, and weight distribution is going to be a separate component that's going to be mounted on your trailer.That's going to bump the tongue weight up to 1,000 pounds and the gross trailer weight rating up to 10,000 pounds. more
