"The hitch is 10 times heavier then the frame it is bolted to. The muffler has to be removed to torque down the left side frame mount. The kit didn't come with any lock nuts, I hope it doesn't fall off. I had to use a bolt a little longer than supplied on the middle back mount. The holes in te frame had to be widen'd out to get the mounting plates into the frame but that was coverd in the instructions. The instructions where not clear as to where the hitch was mounted to the frame the pic on front showed one place the one on the back showed another."

"When installing the trailer hitch for the honda it was very easy installation process that the directions stated. I am a thirteen year old boy that was the primary constructor for the process. My grandfather helped me with the torque wrench to torque the bolts. It was a very simple easy directions. It took my grandfather and I under one hour time to construct the hitch. The hitch is very strong and durable. Also heavy."

"This is the first time I have bought a Draw Tite hitch. This was very easy to order and the install was just as simple. The holes lined up perfect and only took 30 mins to install. Would have been faster if I had someone else to hold up the hitch while I lined up the bolts. Item does not come all wrapped up in shipping, but who cares since this is going under your car. Very happy with item."

"This hitch is of top quality and is heavy. Installation was not easy. It really should be done by two people, and the vehicle raised up on a hoist. I installed it on the ground, but it required me to jack up one side to slide the hitch over the leaf springs. The holes lined up great and only took about ten minutes to bolt up. But it took over 30 minutes to figure out how to install the hitch on the ground by jacking up one side. Overall,I'm very happy."

"I have an 5' X 10' trailer which I use for picking up small loads of lumber, hauling small amounts of trash and to move my lawn tractor around. This hitch does all of that nicely, but to be able to install this with no drilling, cutting, moving tailpipes, etc. made this a 15 minute job. I got your Email that the hitch was sent and the next day it was delivered. If I had known this was going to be so easy (compared to other installations I have done) I would have purchased this years ago and would have gotten so much more use and satisfaction."

"This is my second DrawTite hitch bar. The first installed on a mini SUV with no problem at all. This went on a small Toyota, and although the attachment points were much easier to use than other models for this vehicle, it was impossible to re-tighten one of the 4 bolts. (not enough wrench clearance once the hitch was in place) The solution was to put the bolt in from the other side and put a locking nut on instead. Not a big deal, but certainly not fully tested on this specific vehicle model."

I did not realize the receiver (male end) came with the hitch. This made the price even better. Locally the best price I found was $200.00 for the same thing"

"The Draw Tite Hitche may be installed in 15 min but I am 63 and not in good health. It took me 45 min but that was because of the limited room to get my tork wrench on the top two bolts. I could only turn the bolt a few inches at a time. This was not a problem with the product but the design of the Sonata. My wife helped me and we finished up in less time than I thought it was going to take. This is an excelent product."

"After receiving the hitch via Fedex, I began installation later that night. I have 9 years in the RV business (3 as service manager). I was confident it would be an easy job. Unfortunately, a nut was missing from the hardware pack, one of the bolts had a different thread pitch than the car's frame nut and one of the flange's was bent which means the holes didn't line up. This 1 hour job turned into a 3 hour job as I had to locate a high grade replacement for the missing nut, tap out the existing nut welded to the frame of the car and get a volunteer to pry one of the flange arms out to line up the holes so I could get the bolts installed. None of the problems I encountered were AutoAnything.com's fault. This missing/incorrect hardware and improperly welded flange was Draw-tite's fault. (There was no missing paint to indicate shipping damage). If I had the time, I would have exchanged the hitch but I needed to use it the next day. AutoAnything.com did a great job of getting my hitch to me on time and I would buy from them again."

"I received the hitch faster than expected but it was shipped bare without any packaging, the paint was chipped in several places, which I'm sure will lead to rust later on. The installation was painless, I spent more time prying loose the rubber exhaust hanger than hanging and bolting the hitch itself."

"The service was supurb. The product is excellent. Instructions were very good. I installed the hitch in about 1 hour (fine with me) I towed a trailer 300 miles yesterday and worked perfect. However, your instructions show a third bolt to be installed on the drivers side. Did not have a bolt long enough. Nor was there a hole to pu the bolt into. So I left it out. Plenty strong anyway."
