I Did the install of the OEM Hitch on my '05 King Cab.... I already had the torque wrench..... Simple! The Knee trick already mentioned is crutial for the DIYer! Then I had to take my torque wrench to ABALAMA (Alabama) to torque on my mechanicaly declined brothers hitch. (He bought the OEM NISSAN hitch and the relays that are left out, and installed it himself but couldn't get his torque wrench to "CLICK") He just just didn't have the feel/ umph to pull to spec torque...... 6 supplied bolts and torque wrench = easy install. A half inch drive torque wrench with an 18" handle and a few extensions and its done......
I would buy the OEM class 3 and install it myself. The only thing that makes it class 4 is the attachments/ load leveling hitch assembly!

Mixed feeling on the cost of the upgrade, But I LOVE it as much as the '05 King Cab and the '06 Crew Cab!!! The only thing I hate is scrubbing the right rear tire on curbs due to the extra length!
