Today we are going to be installing part number 87539 from Hidden Hitch on a 2007 Nissan Frontier pickup. OK we are underneath the vehicle now. And, looking at the drivers side frame rail, you can see the three attaching points at the bottom of the frame. These are weld nuts, but we are just going to be taking the bolts that were provided with the installation kit and throwing them up into there. A lot of times you will have some corrosion built up in these nuts. What I have already done is sprayed some spray lubricant like WD-40 up into there and cleaned them out really well so that the bolts can thread in there more easily. And once we have got the bolts cleaned out we can go ahead and put the hitch up into place.
Once we have the nuts and washer assemblies into place we can go ahead and tighten it down. OK, now that we have got the hitch up into position and the bolts tightened down, the last thing we want to do is go ahead and torque them down to their specified torque rating. The torque rating for these bolts, which is listed in the instructions, is 68 foot-pounds. And with the bolts torqued down, the installation is complete. And this will conclude the installation of part number 87539 on a 2007 Nissan Frontier.
