I'll post my experience.
Order the hitch and took a week or so to get out. It showed up and the brackets were missing. Support told me they would send out the brackets but accidentally sent me an entire unit and the replacement was also missing brackets. Called the company and they resolved my issue.
As for the installation of the bracket. It was a lot of work. The spacers and the bolt that held the spaces could not be installed flush with the frame because of an existing plate from the shocks that was on top. I bought a hacksaw and a bi-metal blade and took off 1/2 inch of the plate so the spacer and bolt would sit correctly. There is not much space to work with above the frame. Posted many pictures of how I installed it. I only needed to drill two holes (the middle portion) into the frame since the other holes already existed.
If the bolt and spacer would have fit correctly this installation would have taken me 30 minutes. However, I have the receiver installed and I am so pleased with it. Great quality and I can finally haul things around.
Absolutely love Curt products! Have bought and installed on all my trucks. Gooseneck and receiver hitches. Life long customer here!
etrailer the company was great in my dealings with them. My first box was missing a critical bracket, so they sent me another box. This box was also missing the bracket. Turns out, it was a Curt problem. So it falls more on them, but I'm only giving three stars because it was a frustrating ordeal all around.
The hitch went in smoothly. The instructions had a lot of detail, and it was quite accurate. I was surprised at how smoothly and easily we mounted the hitch. So, I put in the wiring harness, then the hitch, in about an hour and a half. I was happy with the product, the price, the delivery time, the detail of the instructions, and the ease of installation. My truck looks really nice with the hitch on it. Bob

There is no way this will fit my truck. I have a 1986.5 that is supposed to be identical to the 1987 truck. Mine is a 4wd. There is a bed mount on top of the frame and other obstacles where this hitch mount need to go. Are you sure this is the right one?
My 2nd hitch to install no problem with installation would recommend
The last hitch was missing one piece of hardware, customer service polite and prompt to send missing piece
Fit and finish were good, instructions were easy to follow. Ships assuming frame bolts are reusable, which was annoying since in my case, both were too short, and metric to boot, so not the same as all the other bolts on the hitch. Buying replacement bolts wasn't hard, but I'd rather not have to do it after buying a kit.
Instructions could have included some pictures. It would have been easier
Excellent hitch for my ‘97 Nissan hardbody. Delivered missing one piece.

Per the instructions on some models of the 1996 Nissan Pickup when there is interference with the shock absorber mount it will require that forward attachment fasteners to be installed. The flat washer will need to be modified by the installer to ensure that the bolt installed is straight and will not bend after tightening.
