Class IV Hitch receiver install
I'm attempting to install a Mopar Class IV hitch receiver. It's a simple process, but the main bolt requires 300 ft-lbs of torque. The highest rated torque wrench I've been able to find is 250 ft-lbs (Cobalt model). This seems like alot of torque required, could this be a misprint, or is a job for an impac wrench? (the instructions show only manual tools required - ratchets, sockets and a torque wrench)
Thanks
Dan
