Draw-tite front reciever on 2011, has anyone installed?
There are 2 airdam brackets/braces that appear to be in the way of the where the reciever brackets are to mount on the frame. I have one on order and of course i was told that it will fit. Just curious if anyone has already done it.
Reese appears to be the same design.

It's a width clearance issue
The hitch mounts to the outside of the frame rails in existing holes. The airdam brackets are u-shaped and the combined width for both sides add about 3/8" to 1/2" to overall width. Crawl up under the airdam and have a look, it may make more sense. I will keep you posted when it arrives and let you know how the install went. If the engineering/design department at Draw-Tite had accounted for the extra width or made the distance between the outer mounting brackets 1/2" wider, the airdam brackets could be retained. Go to Draw-Tite.com and look up part # 65049 install sheet. The illustration shows the bracket removal.
Hope this helps....
