There will not be any type of trimming to the hole required in order to use the Curt lube plate, which is the following part:

Curt Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches -12" Diameter # C16722

This will go over the king pin and does go all the way up to the skid plate. You'll slip it over the king pin and just push it up to the skid plate and that's the only thing you'll need to do for the install.
