You really need to use a torque wrench when installing a trailer hitch like the Draw Tite part # 76025. We have some you could order with the hitch like with part number # ALL944001 or local auto parts stores will often times let you borrow them as well.

There's no other safe way to determine the correct amount of torque needed.
