13140 Curt Hitch

Just finished installing the hitch on our X1 and I agree with Xess about removing the right side covers. I couldn't get the hitch up in there without removing them. I also had to use 6 washers on each stud on the drivers side flange, it is deeper than the passenger's side flange. So after 2 trips to the hardware store, one to get more washers and second to get shorter 18mm socket, I'm done 2 1/2 hours later. I used a small box wrench and channel locks to pop the rivets in place.
