All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
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 GMC Jimmy, Chevy Blazer and Chevy K5 Blazer (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 5,000 lbs. GTW and 500 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.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Chevy S10, C10, C20, C30, C1500, K10, K20 and K30 pickup or Suburban and GMC S15, Syclone, C1500, C2500, C3500, K1500, K2500 and K3500 pickup or Suburban and Isuzu Hombre (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

Yes, the 85 - 91 GMC Jimmy Full size Curt 2" Class 3 Trailer Tow Hitch + 5-Flat Wiring Kit Tow Boat/Utility Trailer with Surge Brakes 13401 (Part #5W-CHW-1398) is designed to fit the 1985-1991 GMC Jimmy.
The 85 - 91 GMC Jimmy Full size Curt 2" Class 3 Trailer Tow Hitch + 5-Flat Wiring Kit Tow Boat/Utility Trailer with Surge Brakes 13401 (Part #5W-CHW-1398) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, Curt part number 13401 is designed for 1973–1991 Chevy Blazer and GMC Jimmy full-size models. However, if your vehicle is a 1973–1980 model, the forward attachment holes must be drilled as part of the installation process.
Drilling is required only if your vehicle is a 1973–1980 model. For 1981–1991 vehicles, the frame holes already exist and correspond to the hitch attachment holes. For 1973–1980 vehicles, the forward attachment holes must be drilled.
Before installation, locate the holes in the bottom of the frame that correspond to the hitch attachment holes. Remove any undercoating present from the attaching surfaces. You may also need to remove the license plate to access the installation area.
The kit includes: 2 car bolts (1/2-13 UNC, 1-3/4", Grade 8, part 10-10272); 2 hex head cap screws (1/2-13 UNC, 1-3/4", Grade 8, part 10-10370); 4 serrated flange nuts (1/2-13 UNC, Grade 8, part 20-00062); 4 flat washers (1/2", part 30-00133); 2 square hole spacers (0.250 × 1.50 × 2.00", part CM-SP44); and 2 pieces of 1/2" fishwire.
A torque wrench is required to tighten all fasteners to the specified torque value of 110 ft-lbs. For 1973–1980 vehicles, drilling equipment is also needed to create the forward attachment holes. A socket set or wrench set to fit 1/2-13 UNC fasteners is recommended.
1. Locate and prepare the frame holes, removing undercoating from attaching surfaces. 2. Fishwire the applicable bolts and spacers into the frame holes. 3. Raise the hitch into position and place one flat washer per side between the frame and hitch at the rearward attachment location. 4. Torque all hardware to 110 ft-lbs using a torque wrench.
Fishwiring is a technique where bolts and spacers are threaded through frame holes using fishwire (a flexible wire) before the hitch is raised into position. This holds the fasteners in place and prevents them from falling out while you position the hitch. The kit includes 2 pieces of 1/2" fishwire for this purpose.
All fasteners must be torqued to 110 ft-lbs using a torque wrench. This applies to all bolts, hex head cap screws, and nuts included in the kit.
The hitch weight is 90 lbs.
The manual does not provide specific towing capacity values for this hitch. You must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Contact Curt Manufacturing technical support at 1-877-287-8634 for capacity specifications.
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, but regular inspection before towing is recommended.
Curt Manufacturing warrants this product to be free of defects in material and workmanship at the time of retail purchase by the original purchaser. If defective, Curt may repair or replace the product at their option when returned prepaid with proof of purchase. Warranty is voided by alteration, misuse, or improper installation.
Yes. Note: 1973–1980 vehicles require drilling of forward attachment holes.
Yes, but only for 1973–1980 vehicles. The forward attachment holes must be drilled. 1981–1991 vehicles have existing frame holes.

All fasteners must be torqued to 110 ft-lbs using a torque wrench.
License plate removal may be required to install the hitch, depending on your vehicle's configuration.
Periodically check that all fasteners are tight and structural components are sound. Retorque fasteners as needed to maintain 110 ft-lbs.
The Curt 55312 T-connector is designed for Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup, Chevrolet S-10 Pickup, Chevrolet Suburban, GMC C/K Series Pickup, GMC Sonoma Pickup, GMC Jimmy, GMC Suburban, GMC Syclone, and Isuzu Hombre. Verify your vehicle model matches this list before purchasing.
The taillight wiring harness location T3 is located between the driver's side frame rail and the spare tire. This is where you will insert the T-connector.
Locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness at location T3 between the driver's side frame rail and spare tire. Separate the vehicle's connectors carefully without damaging the locking tabs. Insert the T-connector between the separated connectors, ensuring both connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If no suitable point exists, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided in the kit.
Drilling is not always required. If a suitable grounding point exists near the connector (such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame), you can use that. If no suitable point is available, you will need to drill a 3/32" hole for the ground wire.
Drill a 3/32" hole if a suitable existing grounding point is not available. Secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
Route the 4-flat connector to the center of the vehicle and secure it in a convenient location that is out of the way.
Secure any loose wires using the cable ties provided in the kit.
Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface will not be damaged. This precaution avoids damage to vehicle components and personal injury.
The Curt 55312 fits Chevrolet Blazer, C/K Series Pickup, S-10 Pickup, and Suburban; GMC C/K Series Pickup, Sonoma Pickup, Jimmy, Suburban, and Syclone; and Isuzu Hombre.
Drilling is optional. If an existing screw with nut is available on the vehicle frame near the connector, use that for grounding. Otherwise, drill a 3/32" hole.
The kit includes a T-connector, white wire with eyelet, screw, and cable ties. The manual does not specify additional components.
