  • does the car have factory holes or do you just make your own

  • @2066241 Normally 75 pounds and 7 pounds for your m7 bolt that mounts your wiring clip (If you have to remove it) its actually easy to install, I did it on my pontiac g6 yesterday

  • I have NEVER USED locked tight, and NEVER had one come OFF!

    lay on the ground and use a jack to lift the hitch!

  • @STREETRACEN4U Check your ground wire!

  • Help! I bought a 99 Durango with a hitch already on it when I hit the brakes on it the brake lights all come on except my rear left light is 50% darker then it should be. Then when my headlights are on it don't come on at all when I hit the brakes but it does when my running lights are on

  • and if the bolt hole aren't there?

  • I am gonna install My own Hitch. I was wondering if any one knew Hot tight I should torque the bolts? If no one knows I will take it to The hitch place and have them do it.

  • @9pt9

    40-50 pounds give or take

    

  • Ok maybe it's me, or my computer settings, but I can't see a damn thing other than the text that the guy is reading anyway, the screen is completely covered in text I know the video is there, because I can see the top of his head as he moves about, but this is certainly NOT helpful when trying to see what in blue blazes he's talking about. Any chance of redoing it WITHOUT the screen full of text ?.

  • Do you know how much the hitch weighs? im wondering if it will slow my car down noticably.
