Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to drill into my frame or bumper to install this?
No. This hitch bolts directly to the factory frame anchor points on your Ranger — no cutting or drilling required. Mounting hardware and installation procedure are straightforward enough for most owners to handle with standard tools.
Will I need to purchase a ball mount and ball separately?
Yes. The hitch assembly is the receiver only. You'll need to source a ball mount (available separately) that fits your towing needs and vehicle clearance. Ball size and tongue length vary by application, so verify compatibility before ordering.
Does this hitch come with bolts and hardware, or do I need to source my own?
Mounting hardware for frame attachment is included with the hitch assembly. You will not need to hunt down fasteners — everything required for installation comes in the box.
