Is Trimming Required for Installation of the Curt Front Mount Hitch # C31017 on a Dodge Ram
Question:
Does this hitch require trimming the plastic fascia that sits below the bumper?
asked by: Clint B
Expert Reply:
Yes, you may have to trim the plastic fascia that is attached beneath the front bumper on your Dodge Ram pickup for installation of the Curt Front Mount Hitch, # C31017. It will depend on which model and trim package your pickup is. The trimmed area will be hidden once the hitch is installed.
I attached installation instructions for you to review.
