READ ONLY    PRINT   SAVE  Need help installing Drawtight trailer hitch on a 245 200 posted by  someone claiming to be Garge on  Mon Jun 7 16:04 CST 2004 [RELATED] Howdy, I aquired a Drawtite trailer hitch from a 240 sedan. I'm trying to install it on our 1989 245 wagon. Near where it bolts up there is a piece of metal (maybe for a tow hook?)with a cut out circle. It's in the way of the bolt holes for the hitch. What's one to do? Also, I'm assuming that I need to just cut the plastic piece that runs the length of the bumper to fit the hitch?

You may want to remove the hitch later (eg: selling the car) and replace the trim and tow hook to keep the car from looking butchered. -- Bob (81-244GL B21F, 83-244DL B23F, 94-944 B230FD; plus grocery-getter Dodge minivan, MGB, and numerous old motorcycles) Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.

I had to remove a metal panel that runs below the bumper. You may be able to cut this piece to fit the hitch and reinstall it but I never did.

    READ ONLY    PRINT   SAVE  Need help installing Drawtight trailer hitch on a 245 200 posted by  someone claiming to be Forgetful on  Mon Jun 7 18:36 CST 2004 [RELATED] Yup, it bolts right on. On my 88245 I had a plastic lower panel that I had to cut after everthing was in place. You don't need it, so you might just save it to keep from butchering it. (I used a sabre saw for the surgery).
