As the installation requires a modification plate for the hitch , best have this done by qualified engineering / fitting shop
diy installation can result in legal action if not done properly and certified accordingly

What is the purpose of a front mount hitch?

Front mount receiver hitches provide a convenient mount for hitch accessories such as a step pad, license plate holder, spare tire mount, or a winch mount plate. It also provides an easy way to maneuver your boat at the launch or campground. B&W Trailer hitches provide all the different hitches available.

How do i install a type lll trailer hitch considering the plastic pan that is part of the rear bumper?

suggest you try looking at u-haul for a drop hitch that will solve your rear bumper issue.they also do installation world wide if needed and they are the top experts in the hitch industry.i recommend them all the time.i can't say enough about how great those guys are about hitch problem solving.they sell hitches all over the world as well as rent moving trucks.they can still sell you the hitch that you need without installing it themselves,but unless you're a pro. i suggest that you have it done professionally. your life is at risk greatly when towing with a type3 hitch. hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com

Problems installing hitch for Jeep Liberty

A torque wrench measures the amount or torque required to tighten a bolt to spec. Thats not what you need in this case. You need to get a wirebrush and clean off as much rust as possible, then you can try a large ratchet or breakerbar to get your bolts to thread in. If you feel that you will strip or break a bolt then by all means take it to a pro.

Towing capacity

While a Grand Prix isn't really designed to tow,the capacity of the car would be 4 adults and luggage.In my estimation,that would equate to roughly 1000 pounds that the car can comfortably haul around.Now,you do have to realize that this is going to be ******* the transmission especially,and the engine secondly.Definitely install an auxiliary transmission cooler to help dissipate the heat from the trans fluid.A close look at the rear suspension and possibly any upgrades there will help out with the tongue weight that a trailer creates.Check and see how much the trailer actually weighs before proceeding.Unlike cars of 30 years ago,that were outfitted with V8,rear wheel drive, truck engines and transmissions,today's cars really aren't the ideal choice to tow with,as a front wheel drive transaxle is pretty light duty.Towing a lawnmower and small trailer,or a jet ski,no problem.A camper trailer would need to be really light,and the other issue might be brakes.Check your brakes really well on your car,as they will also be stopping the weight of whatever you're towing.Good luck.
