Step 2 - Determine Required Ball Height
Determine the proper ball height by leveling the trailer and measuring
from the bottom of the trailer tongue to the ground, see below.
Find the hole closest to that measurement on the adjustable shank (#1).
The trailer ball platform (#2) will be centered on that hole.

Step 3 - Attach the Tongue
Based on the determined ball height, slide the tongue
onto the shank and align with the proper hole locations.
Angle the tongue slightly upwards and press in toward the shank.
Insert a pin (#3) into the top tongue hole first. To pin the bottom
tongue hole, apply downward force to the tongue, and slide
the second pin into place.
Note:
The highest mounting position will require the bottom
pin to be installed first with the tongue angled downward.
Then, apply force upwards to install the second pin.
Secure all pins with the included clips (#4).
WARNING
The provided pins are specifically engineered for this system.
If replacement pins are needed, they must be replaced
with original factory mount pins (CURT# 45959).
Before you Begin
The Rebellion

XD has a built-in anti-rattle feature located in the
trailer ball platform channel to keep your towing system quiet. See
the recommended assembly instructions for optimal performance.
Step 1 - Insert into the Trailer Hitch
