DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch.
Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

The manual covers Chevrolet Silverado 2500 & 3500 HD Pickups in all cab styles (Regular, Crew, Extended & Dually) and bed lengths (Long & Short-bed) in both 2WD and 4WD. However, the manual revision is dated 6-1-12 and does not specify model years. Contact the manufacturer or a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your specific 2020 model year.
Yes. The hitch fits both short-bed and long-bed configurations. However, the installation differs: short-bed trucks require bolt-on brackets (supplied), while long-bed trucks do not use bolt-on brackets. The manual states that for long-bed trucks, bolt-on brackets should be discarded or given to the vehicle owner with an explanation that they are not needed for 8' bed applications.
Yes. The hitch is designed for GMC Denali HD Crew-Cab Pickups. Follow the same installation instructions as for Sierra and Silverado models, with the same bed-length-specific requirements (bolt-on brackets for short-bed only).
Yes. The hitch is compatible with Dually configurations. The manual explicitly lists "Dually - 2 & 4WD Long & Short-bed" as supported applications for both Silverado and Sierra models.
Wrenches in the following sizes: 13mm, 21mm, 22mm, 3/4", and 7/8". No drill bits are required. A torque wrench is needed to tighten fasteners to specification. For short-bed trucks, a plastic cutting tool may be needed to trim the heat shield.
No. The manual lists "Drill Bits: None" under Equipment Required. The hitch uses existing weldnuts in the truck bumper and frame rails; no new holes must be drilled.
The kit includes: (6) Hex Bolts M14 x 2.0 x 45mm CL10.9; (4) Hex Nuts 1/2"-13; (6) Conical Toothed Washers 5/8" (black); (2) Blocks 1-1/2" x 2" with round hole (short-bed only); (4) Hex Bolts 1/2"-13 x 1-1/2" Gr.5 (short-bed only); (3) Flat Washers 9/16"; (8) Conical Toothed Washers 1/2" (gold); (2) Hex Nuts M14 x 2.0. A separate fastener kit 41942F is available if additional fasteners are needed.
Yes. The first installation step requires lowering the spare tire from underneath the truck for ease of installation. The spare tire is raised back into place in the final step after all hitch fasteners are installed.
Remove the existing 14mm bolts from the end of each truck frame rail and return them to the vehicle owner. These bolts are removed to allow the hitch to be positioned over the existing weldnuts.
The manual does not explicitly state that the bumper must be removed. However, if the truck has an existing hitch, the bumper bolts must also be removed. For trucks without an existing hitch, follow the standard installation procedure without bumper removal unless interference prevents hitch positioning.
1. Lower spare tire. Remove existing 14mm bolts from frame rails and return to owner. If truck has existing hitch, remove bumper bolts. 2. On short-bed trucks, remove rearmost 8mm bolt holding plastic heat shield. 3. For short-bed trucks, attach bolt-on brackets to hitch brackets and torque to spec. 4. For long-bed trucks, discard bolt-on brackets. 5. Raise hitch into position, locating slots over existing weldnuts. 6. For short-bed trucks, sandwich plastic heat shield tab between hitch and frame; trim gusset if needed. 7. Install 14mm bolts and conical toothed washers into weldnuts; torque to 115 Lb.-Ft. 8. Install M14 bolts and flat washers through frame access holes; attach nuts and conical toothed washers; torque to 110 Lb.-Ft. 9. Raise spare tire back into place.
No. Bolt-on brackets are required only for short-bed trucks. For long-bed trucks, the bolt-on brackets should be discarded or given to the vehicle owner with an explanation that they are not needed for 8' bed applications.
Trimming may be necessary. The manual states: "In some cases it may be necessary to trim plastic gusset on heat shield to allow shield to stay in place." A plastic cutting tool is listed as optional equipment for short-bed installations. Trim only if the heat shield does not stay in place between the hitch and frame after installation.
No. The manual explicitly states: "Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch." This is a safety requirement and applies to all installations.
The 14mm bolts (M14 x 2.0 x 45mm CL10.9) that attach to the bumper and frame weldnuts must be torqued to 115 Lb.-Ft. (156 N·M).
The M14 bolts and flat washers used for forward attachments (installed through frame access holes) must be torqued to 110 Lb.-Ft. (136 N·M).
The 1/2"-13 Grade 5 bolts must be tightened with a torque wrench to 75 Lb.-Ft. (102 N·M).

If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes. A hitch or ball which has been damaged should be removed and replaced.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual emphasizes this as an ongoing maintenance requirement, not a one-time check.
The manual states: "Check hitch frequently, making sure all fasteners and ball are properly tightened." No specific interval is provided; regular inspection is recommended to ensure safety.
