It was a easy install, on my 2001 Tacoma I had to hack saw off two little tabs on the stock bumper brackets that were in the way.

Installation in under an hour. Works great. Make sure if you have a non-stock bumper that this will clear it.

Quick shipping, and, as my 5 out of 5 rating indicates, I would order this hitch again. It is sturdy, well made, and the paint job is nice.

Now for the tough part: installation. I really had a hard time getting the four bolts/holes to align on the brackets attached to the frame. I could get three out of four on with no problem, but, even though I didn't tighten anything down, the fourth hole just did not want to line up. My friend and I finally got the bolts in doing some twisting and using a punch. Installation was over an hour. In reading the other reviews I don't see that anyone else had this problem.

I'm using the hitch to hold a bike rack which weighs about 60 pounds without the bikes. It is rock solid.

This was a simple installation. All that I needed was a 19mm socket. The hitch fits exactly right on my Toyota Tacoma and looks great. Wish I'd bought it years ago.

The hitch installed in an hour and very easy bolted right up with no issues at all.

The hitch looks great (what little you see of it) and fits great. An installation tip: The bumper on the Tacoma has to be removed from the mounting brackets so don't waste any time trying to put the hitch on with the brackets still attached. When removing the bumper mount brackets, there are two bolts on each side, the bolt towards the front of the truck has the nut welded to the frame (and the nut is fairly hidden, so it will fool you) so no need to try and remove it or even put a socket on it to hold it. I wasted an extra 20 minutes with that nut. With these couple of tips the job should only take 30 minutes. An extra set of hands to help hold one side of the bumper (when the time comes) is a plus. I would definitely recommend this hitch. It has loops for the safety chains (which I prefer), not like the picture that may have a flat metal piece with an oval hole cut in it. Not much of a difference, but I prefer the loops.
