I would love to put an after-market hitch on my Infinity 4 x 4. Any idea where to go to have this done and what it might cost to do so?

Summer roads trips ahead so we need more room for bodies and camping gear in the vehicle!

Shameless plug for my brother and dad.

They also make custom Weld-ons if none of those bolt-ons on the site suit your fancy.

anyone ever installed one of these? Is it fairly simple? Don't have any auto repair experience, but I can install my own derailleur hanger

is it a qx4? etrailer.com. few bolts. thats it. no drilling required.

hitchsource.com

I've been asked a half dozen times where I got mine for my car (scion tc)

It was a breeeeze to install. If you can put 4 bolts through 4 holes and put 4 nuts on the ends, you're good to go. Typically how it's installed, YMMV

edit: just looked up an infiniti qx4 (if that's the car you got), it's 4 bolts, no ends because it apparently just threads into pre-existing holes. Should take 4 minutes if you have someone holding the hitch in place while another puts 4 bolts in that line up. Easier than mine.

Simply bolt it on to pre-existing holes in your car. When I ordered mine last year, they did not charge for shipping.

bikeadict · 05-15-2008, 10:58 AM

Yep, pretty easy. bought the hidden hitch for my Matrix. I love it.

I had an aftermarket hitch put on my Corolla...from a place that does all those auto extras here in SD.

ryandood · 05-15-2008, 11:55 AM

like others have said above, etrailers.com . The install was easy peasy.

or you can go to a uhaul location and have them do it for you.

Speaking of a tow hitch, anyone need a hitch for an early 90's toyota pickup?? It's just sitting here and it's free, not sure if I still have the bolts but those are cheap, It may fit the tacomas and 4-runners but not sure, let me know.

Thanks everyone! Mission accomplished.
