What happens here
The host manually lifts the very heavy tow hitch into place under the vehicle. He advises starting one bolt on each side to support the hitch's weight and aid in alignment. Once the hitch is supported, he inserts the remaining bolts, shims, and nuts. The kit comes with two shims and two nuts for each side, totaling eight connection points. This step is physically demanding due to the hitch's weight.
Goal: Carefully lift the heavy tow hitch receiver into position, aligning it with the bolt holes. Insert one bolt on each side to temporarily hold the hitch, then insert the remaining bolts along with the provided shims and nuts.
