I started to install the Curt Mfg. hitch, and ...

there are three holes for bolts to mount the hitch to the frame brackets, and the hole for the rear most bolt is in conflict with the WAAG rear bumper guard. Any ideas on how to resolve this? Do I need to post a pic? Thanks

IIRC, you need to buy longer bolts and replace the OEM ones that hold the bumper cover and the rear guard. There is a project I think...

Thanks Fer, but that does not resolve the problem. I'll have to post a pic tomorrow. Old chinese (no offense) proverb says, "One picture worth 1k words".

I think if it would mount, the WAAG bumper guard would still have to be removed during towing. It would restict the ability for the trailer to pivot during sharp turns.

I have the Wagg bumper guard and the Ford hitch. Bolted right on-no problems. I've never

had to remove the Wagg to tow anything.

Here's a pic to help understand the conflict with the WAAG bumper guard.
