ONE THING!!!!! Buy many drill bites and get the most expensive you can buy! OMG! The metal in the front of cars is STRONG! Money well spent and have at least two or you will be driving mid install to the hardware store for more - always return what you do not use!

That is my only advise.


Sure you have to pull the entire front fashia off the car but like stated here prior - not that hard as it is plastic, light weight, and held on my simple screws.

GO FOR IT - Save a lot of money and know it is done RIGHT!

Darren, thank you for the sage advice. I am leaning towards the Blue OX, but it strikes me that both are good products. I have about two weeks before I hit the road, so I am running out of time. I still need to select an A-frame, most likely also the Blue OX model and lights and break-system.

Any advice on which is the easiest to install while being completely safe?
