Default RST hidden hitch install....

bought one for the truck , got under it to test fit it and all is good except, the third bolt hole on each side is where the actually exhaust pipes are bolted to the frame.

i understand i can put this underneath that then bolt the exhaust back using the same bolt hole, would this mess up my exhaust at all, hanging, moving or towing?

nope, i think levi said it was on there at one time , but its not now.

could you do me a favor and look at yours and see if thers a 3 bolt holes on each side, the last bolt towards the cab is the exhaust hanger bolt, does your go under the hanger, then bolts all up?

thanks in advance

Better yet, I will get pics this weekend. Not sure when though. Today is my B-day and it only comes once every four years, so I might be busy?
