Which Brackets are Needed to Mount a 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector on a Vehicle
Question:
Hello I just purchased the Flat 5 wiring harness bracket without the universal No drill # 18136 part. Do I need this part ? will it work with the flat 5 bracket ? or can I just drill into the hitch and mount the bracket directly to the tow bar ?

Expert Reply:
It looks like you have purchased the mounting bracket for a 5-Way flat, # tr20046, when you got the wiring harness. The no-drill brackets, # C57202 or # 18140, will attach to the bracket that you recently purchased. You will not need any additional brackets. I have included a link to a video that, in part, shows the tr20046 bracket being installed.
