Installation of a Trailer Hitch on a 2009 Chrysler Town and Country


Today we are going to be installing Hidden Hitch part number 87451 on a 2009 Chrysler Town and Country. OK, we are underneath the vehicle and we are looking at the passengers side frame rail. As you can see, the exhaust is in the way of right where we are going to need to get the hitch up into position, so the first thing we are going to need to do is go ahead and lower it down. To do that, we are going to take it off of its main hanger, which is right here. And now, with the exhaust down, I can kind of pull it out of the way. You can see here above the exhaust here we have got one, two existing bolts. We are going to remove those and actually reuse those for the installation. Looking at the drivers side, we are actually going to be using three attaching points. And again, the bolts for those are already in the frame: here, here and here.

Now that we have got all the bolts removed, we can go ahead and put the hitch up into position. Over here on the passengers side, you want to make sure when you put the hitch up that you avoid the AC line here. It might be necessary to slide the hitch a little bit behind the AC line here. You want to make sure that definitely do not have the AC line in between the hitch and the frame. Now that we have got the bolts up into position, we can go ahead and torque them down. You want to check with your directions to verify the appropriate torque rating for each individual bolt. With all the bolts torqued down, we just want to make sure we go ahead and put our exhaust back up on its hanger, and our installation will be complete. And that will conclude the installation of hitch part number 87451 on a 2009 Chrysler Town and Country.
