Tips for Supporting a Trailer Hitch to Mark Holes in Frame for Drilling
Question:
It seems pretty awkward trying to do this myself. Any tips on getting the 31012 into place to mark rear drill hole locations?

Helpful Expert Reply:
If an assistant is not available you could use a floor jack to help support the hitch so you can mark the hole locations. Some customers have used clamps or blocks of wood as options as well. The best option though is still another person because you can't tell a jack, clamp, or block of wood what to do!
