Does Skid Plate of 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Have to Come off to Install Curt Front Hitch

Question:

I have a 2014 trailer team Fj and it comes with a TRD front skid plate. Is this front mounted hitch going to interfere with the factory skid plate? I’ve attached a photo for reference

Thank you for the picture of the skid plate you have installed on your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Based on that I can tell it's going to have to come off to install the Curt front hitch part # 31367 that you referenced. I also attached a picture of this hitch installed and you can see that the hitch sits right where the skid plate goes.
