Today we are working on a 2002 Mercury Villager. We are going to be installing Draw-Tite part
number 36277, which is also comparable to Hidden Hitch part number 90072. Before we
begin our installation, here are a couple of measurements that will help you when ing
accessories for your hitch. From the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer most point
of your bumper is 6 inches. And from the top of the receiver tube to the ground is 12 inches.
This will help you with accessories such as a draw bar, a bike rack or a cargo carrier.
Now let us go ahead and start our installation. 0:36
Now we are going to go ahead and point out our attachment points. This is the driver
side. Now we will look at the passenger side. With this vehicle, we recommend to spray the
mounting points and clean them out with a nylon tube brush, part number 814092. I am
going to repeat that same process for all four attachment points. Ok, before we install
our new hitch, I am going to have to remove the fascia brackets. There is one on both
sides. We will go ahead and do that now. And they will not be reinstalled on the vehicle.
Now that we have our fascia brackets out
of the way, we can go ahead and install our new hitch. 1:17
