Dont know, didnt need to use it. Gave to my Sister.

The hitch is currently being put on and the only issue I'm having is that the bumper part that is threaded is super tight. My brother and I kept the bolts loose in order to thread it but it still wouldn't start. I wondered if it had been plugged with a bolt before it was painted and that was why it was so tight. I've got it started and I don't believe it's cross threaded but it's still extremely tight. Gonna man handle it in and hopefully it doesn't snap. It's a permanent install so I'm not too worried about it. Maybe the piece is welded at a slight angle. Hard to say. Great product. My 97 Dutchman will be able to ride correctly now.556010

It sounds like the troubles that you are having may describe a slightly flexed hitch. This is something that does happen in transport to our facility, and can happen when we ship them out. Please take a look at the crossbar that this bolt goes in and see if you can get a level or a speed square on it and check if is in alignment. It may have flexed a bit and be out of square. I have included one of our help articles for your reference that do describe how to fix a flexed hitch. It may also be beneficial to make sure that there is not any debris, or build up on the bumper where it looks like you had a trailer ball previously installed. I would suggest a stiff bristled brush and some lubricant like WD-40 or an equivalent.

The hitch is very nice and would have been a snap to install on a new truck.
The old hitch was a universal item , I needed a torch, once all the old hitch was removed the etrailer went on pretty easy..
One thing the powder coating was pretty thick inside the threaded nipple that mounts off the bumper hole, it needed a tap to clean out all the cured powder coating.
It looks wonderful under the truck and gave it about another 31/2 inches of ground clearance.
I am very happy with the Curt Hitch from etrailer.com 107214

Omg! Etrailer order/shipping all ok. However, product from Curt the worst experience ever with a hitch! All order info points to me having the correct part number but all 4 side bolts holes (even oblong) did not line up. And then it gets worst! The one large bolt that goes down through the factory hole in bumper was the incorrect bolt. Meaning it had the wrong threads to match the hitch! And it was a pan head bolt when the surface is flat! Wtf? Disaster! And I have installed many hitches in my lifetime!180030

I could not believe how well made and howwell the hitch fit my truck. this whole install took only twenty minutes to complete. The wire harness was so easy to hook up. The whole task was so much easier than any other hitch install I have ever attemped.43046

Craftsmanship of this trailer hitch is excellent and exceeded my expectations for an on line purchase.

Hitch went on just as the video instructions highlighted. Also, the wiring harness went in without a "hitch". All done within one hour. Wish all product installations went as smooth.41030
