1. Lower the spare tire for ease of installation. 2. Install 1/2" carriage bolts and spacers through existing holes in the frame. 3. Raise the hitch into position over the carriage bolts and secure with flat washers, lock washers, and hex nuts. Ensure the wire harness near the end of the truck frame is not pinched between the hitch and frame. 4. Torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb.-ft. 5. Raise the spare tire back into its storage location.

Torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb.-ft.
