Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Cadillac Escalade, Chevy Avalanche, Chevy Suburban, Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 6,000 lbs. GTW and 600 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 10,000 lbs. WD and 1,000 lbs. WDTW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
Trailer hitch weight ratings are limited to vehicle manufacturer's stated capacities
Not compatible for use with vertical hanging bicycles (bike racks that require the bicycles to be hung / mounted vertically)
Includes installation hardware

The existing M14 bumper bracket bolts on your vehicle are reused.
No. The manual states 'NO DRILLING REQ.' The hitch uses existing weldnuts on the frame and existing M14 bumper bracket bolt holes, so no drilling is required.
1. Remove the existing M14 bumper bracket bolts from the bottom surface of the frame on both sides and return them to the vehicle owner. 2. Raise the hitch into position and install the fasteners as shown in the diagram. 3. Torque all 1/2-inch fasteners to 110 lb.-ft. and all M14 fasteners to 126 lb.-ft. Fasteners are typical on both sides.
All 1/2-inch fasteners must be torqued to 110 lb.-ft.
All M14 fasteners must be torqued to 126 lb.-ft.

No. The manual explicitly states: 'DO NOT EXCEED VEHICLE MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDED TOWING CAPACITY.' Even if the hitch has a higher capacity rating, you must follow your vehicle manufacturer's limits.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify an exact interval, so inspect it before each towing trip and at regular maintenance intervals.
