Hitch Installation Econoline van (3rd Gen)

Trailer Hitch Installation on my 1976 Econoline Van (3rd Generation)
In this video I show you how to install a class 4 traler Hitch on a 3rd Gen Ford Econoline Van. On my van I had to drill all 6 holes in the frame and align it side to side and front to back. It's not very difficult and definitely a lot easier with an extra set of hands to help line things up. Drilling the holes is pretty simple with my non-Pantented Redneck drill press methods. The whole Installation only took about an hour. Obviously this process is not specific to my van. I have done it this way on quite a few different vehicles over the years. I hope you found this video helpful in some way or at least entertaining!
Here is a link to the hitch I used and the info on it,
