I had to drill a new hole about an inch further up. The shaft gets a little larger towards the connection keeping the shaft from going in enough for the holes to completely line up. Worked fine after that.

I think overall it is a good product but there are some annoyances. To begin with, this hitch is very heavy. The package weight was 75 pounds, but the main body is at least 50. I can manipulate it, but someone weaker may not be able to. Setting the ball is also a bit tricky with the stopper between the ball mount and the riser. I was able to use my body weight to get the stopper compressed and the pin in, but it was difficult. One suggestion might be to hitch the trailer with the pin out then use the tongue weight of the trailer to get the lower pin lined up. This will not be a good solution for being on the lowest position, but it works for all the others. My other annoyance is it really messes up the back up camera and proximity sensor. Yes, I know I can disable the sensor, but the camera can't be moved which makes hitching alone a bit more annoying. I feel like there is a more elegant design so that there is not a bulge at the top of the riser, but I can't say for sure.

It’s a beast! Installed it n pulled my dump trailer no more rattling jerking nosies etc, wish it was 20lbs lighter my only complaint, The locks could be better I won’t be leaving the hitch installed, the locks are light weight n I believe a hammer will break them off, curt needs to use steel or stainless steel for the locks ( body of locks)
