Hey Mike, thanks for reaching out!
According to the installation instructions you'll need to torque the flange nuts for the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # 391TES317 to 45 ft-lbs.
Please note it's always important to check the copy of instructions that came with your hitch to ensure proper torque as we've seen this change under special circumstances.

Hey Mike, how did things go torquing the flange nuts on your Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver? Did the 45 ft-lbs spec line up with what was in your instructions? Your update could make it easier for the next person working on this hitch.
