How to choose for this truck
All four are CURT custom-fit hitches, so the choice is by class and opening. There is one Class III, one Class IV and two Class V. Part 13447 is the Class III, rated 8000 lb gross with an 800 lb tongue weight. Part 14005 is the Class IV, rated 10000 lb and 1000 lb. Part 15007, the Xtra Duty Class 5, is rated 17000 lb and 2550 lb. Part 15010, the Commercial Duty Class 5, is the only one with a 2-1/2 in receiver, and it holds the top ratings listed at 20000 lb gross and 2700 lb tongue weight. The other three use a 2 in receiver. Because the opening differs, check that the ball mount and accessories you own match 2 in or 2-1/2 in before choosing 15010. CURT's application guide carries footnotes BB and Z, with Z meaning no drilling, and install difficulty is Novice for all four. The factory option that governs everything is the receiver. All four exclude it.
Watch-outs before you buy
Every one of these hitches is listed for trucks without a factory receiver, so check under the bumper before ordering. The same CURT listings cover the Sierra 2500 HD. The Silverado and Sierra 3500 HD also exclude cab and chassis. Draw-Tite lists no rear receiver for 2020 and newer 2500 HD pickups, and its 41936, 41938 and 41947 are cab and chassis parts, so do not substitute one of them. Before buying, match the part number, confirm the model year falls in 2020-2026, and decide between the 2 in and 2-1/2 in receiver based on the accessories you already own.
