Speaker 1: Today, on our 2016 Volvo XC90, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Curt class three custom fit trailer hitch receiver, part number C13233. Here's what our hitch looks like fully installed. The cross tube is going to be visible and it's going to sit right below our bumper. Now, it is a class three hitch, which means it's going to give us that 2-inch by 2-inch receiver tube opening, and it does have a reinforced collar, giving it added strength and a nice, clean finished look. Our hitch is going to use a standard 5/8 pin and clip, it's not included, but you can pick one up on our website using part number PC3. Now, as far as the safety chain loops go, it's going to be a plate style, welded to the bottom of our receiver tube. As you can see, we're not going to have trouble getting most sized hooks on or off.Our hitch is going to feature a 900-pound tongue weight, along with a 6,000-pound gross trailer weight rating. Now, I do want to recommend that you always double check your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure it can handle that amount of weight. Now, Curt does recommend using a safety strap when carrying any non-trailer loads, such as a bike rack or a cargo carrier. Now I'd like to give you a few measurements that will help you when deciding for accessories for your new hitch, such as a ball mount, bike rack, or even a cargo carrier. From the center of the hitch pin hole to the outermost edge of the bumper, it's going to be right about 5 1/2-inches. Now, from the ground to the inside top edge of the receiver tube opening, that's going to be right about 12 1/2-inches.Now that we've gone over some of the features and details, let's show you how we got the hitch on. To begin our installation, we're going to need to remove the bolts that are holding our lower fascia to the inner part right here. We're going to have four fasteners, two on each side. Now, I'm going to be using a T25 torx bit to remove those fasteners. We'll go ahead and remove the other two on the other side as well. We are going to need to remove the trim that goes around our exhaust that's attached to our bumper. If we come right to the edge here, towards the center, and we look up where the heat shield is, we're going to have a fastener holding it in place. I'm going to be using a T15 torx bit to remove that bolt. We're going to have one more that's holding this on, that's going to be on the very outside edge going straight back. That's also going to be a T15 torx bit to take that bolt out.Now when we go to remove this, it is loose, but we're going to have to work at it a little bit to make sure that it comes loose and everything is disconnected. We just slide it back, and we should be able to slide it out. We're going to go ahead and repeat that for the other side as well. We are going to have to lower our exhaust down, but I don't want to just let it hang, so I'm going to take a strap here to help support it once we take it off. Now on each side of our muffler, we are going to have a hangar with a rubber isolator on it. If we look straight up past the isolator, we're going to see an M10 bolt. I'm going to be using a 13-millimeter socket, and we're going to go ahead and remove that bolt. Now that this side's removed, we're going to go ahead and remove the other side as well.Now, just right above our muffler, we're going to have our heat shield. We are going to need to temporarily remove this. On each side, we're going to have three fasteners holding it in place, one towards the very back, one more towards the front of the vehicle, and then one at the very edge that's going to be kind of hard to see. They're all going to be 10-millimeter fasteners, I'm going to be using a 10-millimeter socket to remove them. Now that we have this side removed, we're going to go ahead and take the other ones out on the other side. In order for us to reinstall our heat shield, we inaudible 00:03:59 going to trim it. I already marked out where we're going to need to trim. The measurements are in the instructions. We're just going to cut along this line. Now that we have this side cut out, we're going to go ahead and do the same thing and cut the other side out as well.Now, on the driver's side here, you're going to notice that it's shaped slightly different. This hump right here in this rectangular area, we are going to cut around that instead of going straight across. With our heat shield tri
