The EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7904 will require you to use the supplied relocation brackets and move the transmission fluid exchanger. You will open the transmission oil line retainer clip, mount the relocation brackets to lower the exchanger, then re-mount the exchanger and re-position the transmission lines in the retainer clip and close it. See the instructions below.

Installation of this hitch will also require the temporary removal of the bumper, as well as trimming of the plastic bumper insert. It is also worth noting that this hitch will not fit with the larger front mounted auxiliary cooler mounted in front of the radiator.

I have attached an installation video for your reference.
