Hi Tom!
I included a link to the instructions for the B&W Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # BW47BR that will fit your 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. We haven't installed one of these in house quite yet, so no install video, but it's rated a 3 out of 10 for install difficulty. And it's American made!
I did include an install video for the Curt # C66KR Class 2 hitch as it will install in much the same way.
What are you planning on using the hitch for?

To Lazer S: Completed the B&W hitch install and submitted a review. You were right about the hardest part being torquing the bolts to spec. The video of the Curt C66KR was very helpful in showing the dog-bone extension to the torque wrench. I ended up finding a tool on "different" website. Its a "K Tool International 49403 Universal Wrench Extender Adaptor". This fit the torque wrench to a box end wrench that went into the narrow space next the Toyota frame for the end plate bolts. A bit fussy but was able to torque frame bolts to 85 ft-lb and the tube bolts to 45 ft-lb. The Holywood bike rack did not fit my wife's Biria Easy Boarding bike and I have shipped it back. So still shopping for a rack, and Lauren A in customer service is helping me. Thanks so much for you help in making me successful. Tom Schwartz

Thank you for the installation instructions. They appear to be easy to follow. Planning to attach a bike carrier to the hitch.
