Default trailor hitch ?

I lost the installation instructions to my hitch. There's like way to many parts in the bag to guess at. I thought it would be a few bolts and that's all. Anyone have a copy they could scan & send me? or any tips? What's the 2 wire things with a coil on the end for? [:I]

Thanks,
KB

I do have the instructions to install the hitch, but it is home and i am at work. I can try to send it to you later this evening if nobody else has answered. The 2 coils are used to hold the bolts. What you do is put the bolt and plate togegther. Then you thread the wire "things" on the bolt. You put the bolt and plate into the hole on the frame. Then you are able to pull the bolt down so it is held in place by the plate. I know that is not the most descriptive but i hope that help for now. Also SAVE the wire things. you will need them if you ever remove the hitch.

UPDATE

Here is a link to the instructions to install the hitch.

BTY the wire "things" are called bolt leaders. They are used to fish the bolt out of the frame. Some vehicles only have the access hole and no attachment hole

I wrote a guide for ptdiy.net which is now a PAY site. The write-up is on a different computer.

Which make do you have? There are 2 intallation methods for 2 different types.

Here are some pictures of one that I installed:
