I actually want one of those for my 90 notch so I can tow my snowmobile occasionally. If you can get it off in one piece I'll throw ya some cash for it. I installed the same basic hitch ( looks like a Reese) in my lumina. The mounting bolts are drilled through the bumper housing and trunk pan. Can you get a wrench on both ends of the mounting bolts? If the threaded ends are on the outside, the nuts are probably frozen pretty good.
