U-haul They did my Wrangler for both the back and the front for the basket. Good job on all fronts and cheap in comparison. Does that 515.00 include foreplay and breakfast?

Looks ridiculously simple to install, even I could handle 4 bolts to the frame. Thanks everyone!

the hard part is the wiring. It is not really that hard, but it is harder than 4 bolts.

The dealer is probably putting in more than a trailer hitch, possibly a tranny cooler, those are usually tow packages.

More often than not, on the newer suvs and pickups wiring is a simple matter of plugging in a wiring harness for the trailer plug. Allot better than cutting and splicing like we used to do. U-Haul should have the wiring harness for your make and model when you buy the hardware. |
If I offend you please call 1-800- 328-7448

Ordering all the parts thru Drinkwater for $200 and they will install the hitch. I'm going to do the wiring as it doulbles the cost because of labor time to run the wire back to the battery. I work for a custom electronics company and the owner here said he could wire it for me for a few beers!
