All this is poor memory and speculation, however, so I'm not disputing just adding my 2 cents.
When I added a hitch to mine (the regular Escape hitch) I didn't see any cooling lines going back there and I had no other difficulties installing the regular Escape hitch or wiring harness, both work like a charm.
