Hey VX1, great job! That's the exact same hitch I used!
Sorry guys for not *ever* getting back to this thread I started. To tell you the truth I got way sidetracked right after I posted and forgot to come back and post pics, etc... thanks VX1 for posting the great pics!
I agree, it was a bit of a chore to install. Cutting the heavy metal in the Reese hitch was the most difficult bit. Also, having to drill and tap a second hole on each side in the VX's undercarriage wasn't fun either. Cutting the cladding made me cringe as well, but it's the cuts aren't obvious unless you're under the car
Thus, I ended up with two bolts on each side, firmly mounting the hitch to the body. Also, I had to take it off after a year or so to repaint as rust creeped in on the hitch where I had cut it.
Still looks great, and is a very useful mod. You won't get a more heavy duty hitch anywhere.
