Details on Fascia Trimming Required to Install a CURT Front Mount Trailer Hitch, 2008 GMC Envoy

Question:

I am considerting purchasing and installing a Curt Front Hitch on my GMC Envoy, I think it is part number 31055. In the QandA section it says some triming of front facia is required. Do you know how much, do you have a picture of an install, or can you give me the measurements to determine where the trim or hole needs to be - or a Envoy video. Thanks

The CURT Front Mount Trailer Hitch, # 31055, is the correct front hitch for a 2008 GMC Envoy. We have not yet had the opportunity to install this hitch on a vehicle so I do not have a video or pictures I could link you to. But I have included a link to the installation details that show the trimming that needs to be done.

There is a diagram that shows where and how much of the underbody trim panel that needs to be trimmed. It is about a 2-1/2 inch square area that only needs to be trimmed if the vehicle is not equipped with an access hole for changing the oil.
