1. If your vehicle is equipped with a tow hook it must first be
removed from the vehicle. There are 3 bolts holding the
rear tow hook to the rear cross member. These must be
removed, and the tow hook slid down off the cross
member.
2. Slide the receiver over the rear crossmember, taking care
to align the 4 holes in the receiver with the 4 holes in the
cross member. Once in place, insert left or right most bolt
with flat washer into the back side of the hitch and
through the cross member. Place the nylock nut and flat
washer on to the bolt. Secure but do not tighten.
