What Modifications are Needed to Install Curt Hitch on 2000 Lincoln Town Car with Dual Exhaust

Question

Question:

Is installation similar to the questions already asked about a 2006 Town Car with dual exhausts? Also, does this have a low profile when installed? The car sits low due to the dual exhausts and the air suspension which Im told is functioning correctly.
