Today on our 2003 Saturn Vue were going to be installing the Curt hitch part number C12291.
Here are a couple of measurements that will assist you in selecting accessories for your
new hitch. From the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer most edge of the bumper
is 2-1/2 inches, from the top of the receiver tuber to the ground is 13-1/2 inches. This
will assist you in selecting accessories such as a drawbar, a bike rack, or a cargo carrier.
Now, lets go ahead with the installation. For this application theres no tie down bracket
to be removed. So we can start by cleaning out the existing
weld nuts which are in the side of the frame and will be 4 of our attachment points. To
clean out our weld nuts well use some spray lubricant and a nylon tube brush, part number
814092. Now, with our weld nuts cleaned out were going to move to our center attachment
points. Well feed the block and 1/2 inch carriage bolt into the frame with our pull wire provided
with our install kit. Now that we have all of our attachments point prepared were ready
to go ahead and put our hitch in place.
