CURT 13322 Class 3 Trailer Hitch, 2-Inch Receiver, Round Tube Frame, Compatible with Select Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra 1500, 2500 , Black

Super easy install, the hardest part was taking the old one off. Fits perfectly on my 2012 GMC Sierra 1500, comes with the hardware NOTE:I DID HAVE TO USE 2 OF THE ORIGINAL BOLTS BECAUSE LOCATION WITH WELDED NUT WAS TO SMALL FOR THE BOLTS. other than that it lined up perfectly. I don't recommend doing it on your own, but I did; it is tedious heavy but not to bad. Looks like it will be very durable. I will be putting it to the test soon.

FIrst, Amazons shipping seems to always arrive before the projected date. I like that. Now, the Curt 13322 Receiver is a fantastic item and the price was too good to pass up. My review is going to hopefully outline a couple of things I simply didn't know prior to mounting it on my truck. Most socket sets don't include a 22mm socket unless you're a real mechanic. I'm not. Save yourself a LOT of misery and when you order this item at Amazon, go ahead and run to the hardware store and get a 22mm socket. While you're there, if you don't have at least a 8 inch extension for your socket wrench, buy one of them too. If it wasn't for running to the store to buy the socket, I would have had this receiver installed in about 15 minutes. Add in my driving time, and it quickly becomes 45 minutes! My fault completely. Why the extension for the socket wrench? If you don't mind dropping your spare tire, you won't need it. I didn't feel like dropping mine, and by adding in a bit of length between the socket and the wrench, you will alleviate the need to drop your spare. At least on my '12 model Chevy, I did not need to trim any fascia as the paperwork suggested may be needed. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend this receiver. Installation was a breeze and not time consuming at all. I'll say pretty much anyone could get under there and do it as long as they have the right tools. I mean ANYONE. Plus, as others have said... this aftermarket receiver actually looks far better than the stock Chevy one. Personal opinion of course!

Installed on a 2001 Chevrolet Silverado. I was able to do this myself at 75 years old. Vey good to excellent quality. The 30lb weightof thisitem added to the ease of installation as did the installation hardware that was well suited for the job. To install I loweredmy tire to the ground and put the hitch on the tire and raised it up as high as I was able to thenheld the hitch up with one hand and put thebolts in one side at a time.

It’s a good hitch I got it as a replacement on my 2010 gmc sierra. It fits great and looks good. My only complaint is the back two bolts that go into the frame use two random nuts welded to the frame that have never had bolts in them. So if your frame has been painted or sealed like mine has you have to have a thread chaser. Might also need a torch to get the bumper bolts out. Everything else is 21mm and 22mm.

Hasn't fallen off or broke yet and have had it on there for a long time and it has been used and abused pretty easily to install

fit perfectly on a 2011 chevy Silverado 1500 extended cab 6.5 bed.... 2 bolts on this hitch VS The OEM had 3. OEM was poor design. this hitch is a nice heavy duty steel.. Pulling a 30 ft camper, Forest river. so strong!!! well made !!!

High quality and easy to put on.

Apparently Curt has read the reviews! I noticed is the reviews I read prior to purchasing that many people had an issue locating the hardware that comes with the hitch. Apparently they would wrap it up inside the receiver and now it is shrink wrapped to the tube beside the receiver so you cannot miss it. I also read that many wound arrive with scratches and dings. Mine was nicely packaged in a box with cushioning. Fit perfectly and was an easy install by myself. Lined the hitch up under the truck on a floor Jack with the receiver on the jack pad and jacked it into position loosely installed the bumper bolts. Then was able to align the other holes and install remaining hardware. Then tighten opposing bolts until all were tightly in place.
