Trailer Hitch Installation - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado - Draw-Tite- Video
Alright, today on this 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, were going to install part number 41944 from Draw-Tite. Alright, this is what the hitch looks like once installed on the vehicle. Next, well go ahead and give you some measurements that will help you out in selecting some accessories such as a ball mount, a bicycle rack or a cargo carrier. From the top of the receiver opening down to the ground is going to be 22 inches and from the center of the hitch pin hole to the edge of the bumper is going to be 2-1/2 inches. Now, well go ahead and show you how the hitch is installed. Our first step is to go ahead and remove the bolts that are existing at the bottom of the frame and the very end of the frame rail. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado- Video
Today we are going to be installing Curt hitch part number 13322 on a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado. The first thing we want to do is to go ahead and lower our spare tire and get it out of the way so we have more room to work with. And then next I am going to go ahead and point out the attaching points for the trailer hitch. You can see here at the bottom of the bumper we have got two existing weld nuts. These are going to provide the two rearmost fasteners. At the end of the frame, you can see we have got an existing bolt. We are going to remove that and put a new fastener in its place to provide the middle attaching point. And then again, there is an existing hole here more forward on the frame, and that will provide our third attaching point. And to clean out the weld nuts, I am going to go ahead and spray them down with a spray lubricant, like a WD-40. And I am just going to take a wire brush and run that through there, and that will help to clean them out - get the corrosion and rust out of there. And once I have cleaned them out, I am going to go ahead and put the bolts in and run them in and out a few times just to further clean them. more
