GMC Sierra 1500 Trailer Hitch Buyer's Guide (Canada)

Shopping a trailer hitch for a GMC Sierra 1500 in Canada? Start with the door-sticker tow limit on this half-ton badge, then open the live CURT shelf we stock for listed Sierra 1500 years. CURT 13393 is the in-stock Class 3 hitch for two thousand nineteen through two thousand twenty-six Sierra 1500 trucks without a factory receiver on the live card, sharing that sheet with Silverado 1500. The hitch card rates about six thousand pounds gross trailer weight and six hundred pounds tongue weight, and it stays compatible with weight distribution at about ten thousand pounds gross and one thousand pounds tongue on the hitch card. Already have a factory receiver and want a heavier Class 5 replacement path on that same generation? CURT 15307 is the live Class 5 card for trucks with a factory receiver. Older two thousand seven through two thousand eighteen trucks often land on CURT 13301 Class 3, with CURT 13175 and CURT 14006 covering many two thousand fourteen through two thousand eighteen cards. Door sticker first. Hitch second. Canada orders often ship free on qualifying baskets, so confirm the cart note before you check out.

Parts-counter shortcut. Start with the door sticker, decide whether the truck already has a factory receiver, then open the live CURT hitch card for your Sierra 1500 year.

The live hitch path for listed Sierra 1500 years

CURT 13393 is a Class 3 hitch with a two inch receiver path for two thousand nineteen through two thousand twenty-six Sierra 1500 trucks without a factory receiver on the live card. The same sheet also covers listed Silverado 1500 years. On the hitch card it rates about six thousand pounds gross and six hundred pounds tongue, with weight-distribution notes at about ten thousand and one thousand. That is honest everyday half-ton bumper-pull hardware for trailers that still respect the GMC door sticker.

When the truck already has a factory receiver and the sticker asks for more, CURT 15307 is the live Class 5 path for two thousand nineteen through two thousand twenty-six Sierra 1500 with a factory receiver, rating about sixteen thousand pounds gross and two thousand pounds tongue on the hitch card. Do not mix those two late-model cards. Without factory receiver points to 13393. With factory receiver points to 15307. Mid-generation two thousand seven through two thousand eighteen trucks often sit on CURT 13301 Class 3. Many two thousand fourteen through two thousand eighteen cards also name CURT 13175 Class 3 and CURT 14006 Class 4. Read the live title for your year before you cart anything.

We do not invent a Sierra 1500-only wiring harness promise across every listed year here. Many of these trucks already carry a factory seven-way, but still confirm lights and a brake-controller path before the first Canadian night tow. HD badges and in-bed gooseneck gear are separate conversations. This page stays focused on the rear receiver path for listed Sierra 1500 years.
