So I finally finished up my hitch. It was a bit more of a project than I expected. Ended up having to pull the exhaust tip and also a coolant hose to the bottom radiator to make room to drill holes for the bolts. I think overall I am happy with it. It’s bolted up with (4) 5/8” grade 8 bolts. They go through (4) 1/2” plates, the new hitch has (2) 1”/2 plates and they are sandwiched between the other 2 plates attached to the frame. I have to put the coolant pipe back on and also mount the bracket and re-install the trailer plug.
