S70 trailor hitch on S70

Post by mb »

My car came with a trailor hitch that I don't need. In checking under the car it looks like there are four bolts on each end of the hitch attaching it to the car. Are these bolts all I need to remove to get the hitch off?

Once it's off, it's for sale.

depends on the make - Hidden Hitch, Reese, Dalan, etc. and the rating; probably Class II - but it is likely true that only 4 bolts hold it on.

The Hidden Hitch model I'm putting on my 98 V70 T5 has only 3 bolts per side.

New one costs $140 at JC Whitney.
