Recommendation on a Front Hitch to Fit a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
Question:
I need a front hitch for a 2003 Silverado 3500 extended cab dually 4x4 with the 8.1 engine. I want to have the most ground clearance I can and am willing to trim the fascia. What hitch should I buy? You guys are great to buy from, reopeat customer! Thank you,

Expert Reply:
We have two front mounted hitches that will fit your 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 truck. Of the two, I recommend the Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch, # 65028.
The Draw-Tite hitch is custom-fit and will install on the front of your Silverado with no drilling required. Some trimming of the bumper air dam and fascia may need to be done to properly fit hitch to the truck.
I like the Draw-Tite hitch over the Curt Hitch, # 31108, becauce the Draw-Tite hitch has the same weight capacities, similar construction, and similar installation as the Curt hitch, but at a more economical price.
