Is Drilling or Trimming Required to Install Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch on a 2013 Grand Cherokee
Updated 05/22/2013 | Published 05/20/2013
Question:
I am looking for installation instructions. Wondering if I have to modify any bodywork on my 2013 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk edition to mount it, and if so, what needs to be modified. I intend to use it to push a SnowSport HD plow.

To install front mount trailer hitch # C31033 you may need to enlarge an access hole on the frame under the vehicle by drilling, filing, or using a rotary tool. There is also an underbody panel that needs to be removed for installation. It can either stay off the vehicle or be trimmed and reinstalled. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.
