Do You Have to Remove Heat Shield for Trailer Hitch on 2018 Lincoln MKX  

Question:

You offer three hitches for a 2018 Lincoln MKX. The Curt hitch requires removal of the exhaust heat shield and not re-installed. Can you verify if the other two hitches also require the removal of this heat shield or it can be reinstalled?

Expert Reply:

Yes, the heat shield will need to be removed on a 2018 Lincoln MKX for the installation of a trailer hitch. It's the same for the etrailer part # e36RR, Curt part # C78KR, and Draw-Tite part # 75234. I recommend the etrailer hitch due to the matte finish which blends in better with the underbody paneling on the vehicle. It also features a bolt-on install and hidden design. The removal of the heat shield won't have an affect on the vehicle.
