New 10K hitch install
5 Attachment(s)
Installed a new Curt 14082 10K hitch. The trailer I plan to pull will be in the 5-6k range when loaded. I like to setup for overkill, so a 10k sounded right. I researched on this site what hitch was recommended. I am very happy with it. Very nice quality, simple install, fits perfect. The hardware included thick steel shims to use for spacers between hitch and frame to clear rivets. There weren’t any rivets where I mounted the hitch, so I was able to mount it right to the frame. I did use the thick shims on the top of the frame as reinforcement.
I’ll have my friend that’s a fabricator look at it to see if he thinks the frame area needs any reinforcement. |

Re: New 10K hitch install
Did you have to drill holes on both side or was there holes already there to bolt too??
Thanks |
