We are going to be using the existing hole that is just a little bit forward from this slot here on the side of the frame. So the first thing you will do is remove the bolt from both sides of the frame. You can see on this model they have tow hooks which not very many models have but this particular one does have them, so they need to come off as well. With the bolts now out of the energy absorbers, we want to go ahead and lower the exhaust. There are 2 hangers that are holding it on. There is one here to the rear side near the bumper and then there is one more towards the forward side, towards the front of the exhaust here. Rubber hangers are sometimes are hard to release so it helps to use some type of lubricant like WD40. It makes the removal a lot easier. The exhaust should just sit on the cross member here. With the exhaust now lowered we can go ahead and put the hitch up. We can hold the hitch up into place using the weld nuts that we removed the bolts out of before previously. The hitch does need to go up on the bumper side of the flange here <b>...</b>
