Default Class 3 hitch install

Ordered a Curt Class 3 (no lights.) hitch for 2020 NX base. Use only for a bike rack.
Seems very straightforward. Hitch was $150. Ant adivce or gatchas? Thanks for your feedback.

Nope, its super easy, use some jackstands to hold it up and you can do the install with one person in less than an hour.

I have the hybrid, but I hade to slightly bend a heat shield by the exhaust. Hitch was so tight another person was so helpful other than that it was not bad.

I recently had it installed at UHaul. It works fine.
