No, drilling is not required. The hitch uses existing frame holes and access holes. Trimming of the exhaust heat shield is required.
Required tools are: torque wrench, ratchet, 15mm socket, 11/16" socket, 8" socket extension, pliers (needle nose for speed nuts), utility knife, aviation shears, and safety glasses. A 15mm socket may also help with removing rearmost exhaust brackets to ease lowering the exhaust.
The kit includes 6 carriage bolts (7/16-14 UNC, 1-1/4", Grade 8), 6 serrated flange nuts (7/16-14 UNC, Grade 8), 6 square hole spacers (0.250 x 0.88 x 2.25"), and 6 pieces of 7/16" fishwire.
Two people may be required to ease installation. The manual recommends reading all instructions thoroughly before beginning and notes that using proper tools will greatly improve the quality of the install and reduce the time required.
Professional installation time is approximately 37 minutes. Novice (DIY) installation time is approximately 40 minutes. Actual time may vary depending on your experience level and familiarity with the vehicle.
The first step is to lower the exhaust by removing 3 rubber isolators as shown in the Rubber Isolator Removal Diagram. The manual notes that removing the rearmost exhaust brackets from the vehicle frame using a 15mm socket may ease lowering the exhaust.
Yes, heat shield trimming is required. Remove 4 speed nuts on each side using needle nose pliers, then trim the heat shield using aviation shears as shown in the trim diagram. The manual notes that all dimensions are approximate and you should confirm fit prior to trimming. After trimming, reinstall the heat shields.
The heat shield should be trimmed approximately 4.00" (typical) and 12.00" (typical) as shown in the Heat Shield Diagram. All dimensions are approximate; confirm fit prior to trimming.
Fishwire 3 CM-SP2 spacers and 3 7/16" carriage bolts through the access holes and out the mounting holes on each frame rail. This technique allows you to guide the fasteners through the frame without drilling. The fishwire is used to pull the bolts and spacers through the access holes to the mounting holes on both the driver and passenger side frame rails.
After fishwiring the spacers and bolts, use pliers to remove 2 heat shield vehicle studs on each side. Raise the hitch into position and secure it with 6 7/16" flange nuts (3 on each side). The manual notes to scrape away excess caulk using a utility knife for proper installation.

Yes. After torquing all 7/16" hardware to 59 ft-lbs, raise the exhaust back into position and reinstall the rubber isolators that were removed in Step 1.
