If you are having trouble getting the hardware to install for your Draw-Tite trailer hitch then what you need to do is soak the bolt holes with WD40, wait for a few minutes to let it set in, and then use a wire brush like part # 814113 to clean out any dirt or debris. This isn't very uncommon especially on vehicles that are a little older.

Another thing to check is to make sure that you have the correct trailer hitch for your vehicle. If you are trying to install a hitch on the 2008 Nissan Rogue that you put into the fitguide then your trailer hitch number is either # 75902 for a 2" or # 36542 for a 1-1/4". Installation videos have been linked for each that you can check out.
