To install ball plate # RP58062 you will need to drill 4 holes using an 11/32 (.343) drill bit for 1/8" (.125) or thicker trailer tongue material, or a 9/32" (.281) drill bit for thinner material. Then you will line up the plate with the 4 holes and drill the remaining two holes. I have linked some instructions for you.
