CURT parts for the Oldsmobile Bravada
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 55411 ($41.30 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Bravada's factory connector for 1995 through 2001. No cutting, no scotch-locks.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver: CURT 45836 ($41.70 CAD) drops straight into a 2-inch receiver. Pick the drop or rise that keeps the trailer level, and match the ball to the coupler. The ball mount guide covers both in two minutes.
Canadian winters eat hitch hardware. Salt and brine get into the receiver and the trailer plug, so a smear of grease on the pin, a cap on the receiver and a rinse under the bumper in spring keep a CURT hitch looking new for years. The rust and salt care guide has the full routine.
Oldsmobile Bravada hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Oldsmobile Bravada?
It depends on the year. CURT 13020 is the newest, for 1995 through 2004, and the table above matches every other year to its part. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on a Bravada with this hitch?
Yes. The 2-inch receiver takes any 2-inch rack, and a loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (500 lb on CURT 13020), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is well inside the limit.
Can I install the hitch myself?
Most owners do. CURT rates CURT 13020 a novice install, about 30 minutes with hand tools and a jack. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can a Bravada tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated from 4,000 lb to 5,000 lb depending on the part, but the Bravada's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
