Are there any tips that will make installation easier?
Lay something down to protect the bed rails, such as a piece of carpet or rubber mat, and lay a board across the bed right over the 4″ hole. Then attach a come-along to it to hold the center section of the hitch in place. Now your hands are free to put the rest of the hitch together with ease. Also, put a floor jack up underneath the reciever hitch in your truck and jack up the rear of the truck to make more room in the wheel wells. This makes bolting the side brackets to the frame much easier. And finally, if the spare tire is carried under the bed, drop it down and set it to the side to give yourself more room underneath the bed.
