Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Chevrolet Volt- Video

Today on our 2017 Chevrolet Volt we're going to be taking a look at and installing the Curt Class I Custom Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number C11436. Here's what our hitch looks like fully installed. All you're going to see is the receiver tube coming out from right underneath our bumper here, and it's going to have that reinforced collar. It's going to have a nice clean, finished look to it. Now, this is a Class I hitch, so it's going to give you that inch and 1/4 by inch and 1/4 receiver tube opening. This hitch is going to use a standard 1/2 inch pin and clip, which is included so you're not going to have to worry about picking one of those up. Now, as far as our safety chain loops, they're going to be welded on like a rolled steel stock loop underneath our receiver tube here. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Chevrolet Volt 24947- Video

Today on our 2017 Chevy Volt, we're going to be taking a look at installing the Draw-Tite Custom Fit Class 1 Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number 24947. Here's what our hitch looks like fully installed. The receiver tube is going to fit right below the bumper and that's really all you're going to see, giving it a nice clean look. Now, this is a Class 1 hitch, so it's going to have 1 1/4" by 1 1/4" receiver tube opening and this does use a standard 1/2" pin and clip which is not included, but you can pick one up on our website using part number PC2. Now, our safety chain loops, we're going to have a rolled steel stock welded underneath our receiver here, but as you can see, we've got plenty of room to get most size safety chains on or off without interfering with anything. As far as weight capacity concern, our hitch here features a 200 pound tongue weight which is going to be the force pushing down. It also features a 2,000 pound gross trailer weight which is the amount that it can pull. Now, I do want to mention, you always want to double check with your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure that your vehicle can handle that amount of weight. I'm going to give you two measurements to help you in deciding for new accessories for your new hitch, such as a bike rack or a cargo carrier. From the center of the hitch pin holes to the outermost edge of the bumper is 5 1/4". more
