Chevy Avalanche Trailer Hitches

The Chevy Avalanche is an artistic masterpiece. It combines the comfort of a SUV with the load carrying capacity of a large truck in an awesome manner. More than that, it has an extendable bed that greatly increases its carrying capacity. The Chevy avalanche also has a great towing capacity. Different types of Chevy Avalanche trailer hitches are available from CARiD. Many do not require any drilling action. Bolting it onto the truck is a simple 30-minute job. You require no special expertise to install it because they also come with an installation kit providing instructions on installation process. Some require drilling though. In such a case, the best hitches are Gooseneck and 5th wheel trailer hitches. These come with a template that assists you in place the required holes properly. Chevy Avalanche Gooseneck trailer hitches contribute greatly to safe driving especially when driving in cross winds, since they ensure equitable distribution of weight across the vehicle. The size of the rig is also reduced because a part of the trailer comes above the truck bed.

Trailers transfer about 10% of the total weight onto the trailer tongue. Therefore, if the weight on the trailer is huge, a large amount of pressure is exerted on the rear wheels causing the front wheels to lift slightly. This makes steering the car more difficult. In addition, the headlights create a road safety issue by blinding oncoming traffic. Chevy Avalanche trailer hitches come with a nation-wide limited lifetime warranty guaranteeing against defects in the quality of the product. CARiD stocks a host of other accessories to supplement the hitch such as electrical connectors, hitch covers and mount hitches. Different vehicles have different towing capacities. It is advisable to consult your vehicle manual to determine your towing capacity. This information allows you to choose the right trailer hitch for your vehicle.
