Manufacturer InstructionsInstallation of a Trailer Hitch on a 2010 Kia Soul
Today we are going to install part number 11110 from Curt, and we are going to install this on a 2010 Kia Soul. What is going to happen is, the hitch is going to install in the bottom of the frame, where this tow hook is right here. This hook is going to be removed, and it is going to use this bolt here and another bolt on the other side. And also there are two bolts on the back side of this, alongside of the frame, that the hitch will bolt onto there. There are going to be four on the passengers side. On the outboard side of the frame, on the drivers side, where we are looking here, there are two threaded holes there. Also, to install the hitch, we are going to have to lower the exhaust, too. Disconnect this rubber hanger right here, and this rubber hanger here, and that will disconnect those and now we can lower the exhaust and thus we can have some good working room.
Next what is going to happen is we are going to take down the interior fender well liners here. We will put them back in when we are done. Now you can see the bolts are easier to get to: one here, and one right here. OK, now we will take the fender well liner off on the drivers side. All right, now you can see the threaded holes, after we took off the fender well liner.
At this point we can go ahead and install the hitch onto the vehicle. What we are going to do is put the hitch over the tailpipe and kind of work it in between the bumper cover and the tailpipe, and then we will just go ahead and slide it into position then. It would be good if you have an extra set of hands, too. Now we can go ahead and snug the bolts down. All right, at this time we can torque down the bolts, as specified in the instructions. OK, we are at the point where we can go ahead and reattach our exhaust. We will slide it back onto the rubber hangers. Now we will go ahead and put the fender well liners back into place. All right, that finishes it for our install of part number 11110 from Curt.
