Expert Reply:

The Draw-Tite Class III # 75305 Trailer Hitch Receiver does include complete installation instructions and you can review them online prior to your purchase or receiving the hitch (see link). All needed installation hardware is also provided.

The rear bumper will not need to be removed for installation. Drilling is also not required. The hitch is installed using existing bolts and weld nuts on the vehicle.

If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need the following products to complete your towing system:

Plug and play trailer wiring harness with 4 pin trailer connector # 118300
Ball mount # 2753
2 inch trailer ball # 63845
1-7/8 inch trailer ball # 19260

If you use the provided links, you can see an install video for the hitch and trailer wiring harness.
