Where Does a Curt Trailer Hitch Install on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am

does this hitch get mounted on the bumper or on the frameof the car?

Expert Reply:
The short answer is both. There are attachment points on the bottom of the frame and on the bumper mounts. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.
If you plan on doing some towing, the hitch comes with the correct ball mount, pin, and clip. For a 1-7/8 inch ball, you can use # 19256. For a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring use # 119178KIT. I have linked the wiring instructions as well.
