Bought a Curt hitch off FB Marketplace to get a bike rack, but frustratingly when I tried to install it, the holes did not line up. Was about half an inch too short. What should've taken 30 mins took 2 hours the first time around trying to stretch or bend it out to at least get the bolts threaded.
Seems like the warping of the hitch is a common issue with this brand.
I thought it over, and Macgyver'd a solution using a car jack and an old 2x4 to stretch out the hitch:
Which worked beautifully and fit on like a glove:
