Today on our 2011 Lincoln MKS well be installing Draw-Tite hitch part number 36477. Before
we begin our installation, this is what your hitch will look like on your vehicle. Well
go ahead and give you a few measurements to help you when selecting accessories. From
the center of the hitch pinhole to the outermost part of the bumper is 4 inches and from the
top of the receiver tube to the ground is 16 inches. Now lets go ahead with our install.
To begin our installation, well need to lower our exhaust by removing the three rubber isolators.
Theres one just in front of the rear axle and two here at the back of the mufflers.
To make this easy, we went ahead and put some spray lubricant on the isolators to help us
get them off. To get them off well use an isolator hanger tool although you can use
a pry bar to do the same job. We also recommend that you put a strap underneath your exhaust
to help hold it to keep your exhaust from falling too far. Now that our exhaust is down,
well need to remove the exhaust hangers one on each side.
