Review on Curt Manufacturing 14017 Class Trailer by Daniel King

It was dispatched quickly, received it yesterday and started installing this afternoon. I got caught in the rain and finished this morning. It's hard, and if you don't have a helper, you can still do it on your own if you take your time and use the tools you already have. I used a jack and tied the end of the tube to the jack's lifting head to keep it from slipping off. You can also use a screw jack, although you may need to block it higher. I then pulled one wire over the narrowest part of the two front "fingers" and lowered the other wire from the spare tire jack to the middle of the previous wire. Keep this hanger wire short so you can rotate the spare tire cable high enough so your fingers are high enough to get into the mounting holes in the frame where you installed the bolts. Position the hitch on the ground under the truck so that the end of the tube is roughly directly under the edge of the bumper. When raising the jack or jacking screw, slowly align them with the upward rotation of the spare wheel jack. Be careful not to tie the hitch to any structure. Once you've reached approximate height and the fishing lines are properly tensioned through the hitch mounting holes, climb under the truck and it will be relatively easy to finally tension the fishing lines and hang the weight of the hitch on these 4 bolts. .Ensure the clutch is fully up and back and carefully tighten the bolts to specification. Make sure the ground wire screw fits before fully tightening all 4 screws. These instructions assume you are familiar with YouTube videos, which is superior to the written instructions. Check out these videos. Make sure the zip tie isn't thicker than the frontmost standoffs or you won't be able to get your fingers between the frames to get the screws out.
