Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.



Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.


In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.



etrailer.com Technical Support

At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

Video Transcript for Trailer Hitch Installation - 2012 Honda Odyssey - Draw-Tite

Today on our 2012 Honda Odyssey, were going to install the Draw-Tite Hitch, part number 75270. All right, this is what it will look like with our hitch installed. Now Ill go ahead and give you a couple of measurements that will assist you in selecting accessories for your new hitch such as a draw bar, a bike rack or a cargo carrier. From the center of the hitch pinhole to the outermost part of the bumper is 6 inches. From the top of the receiver tube to the ground is 11 1/2 inches. Now lets go ahead with the installation.

Our first step is actually to remove the underbody trim panel here on the driver side. This will get removed and will not be reinstalled. To remove the underbody trim panel, well simply get inside the plastic push pin and pry out the center piece. Once we get the center piece pried out, we can take a flat bladed screwdriver or if you have available, a trim panel tool to remove the fastener. Now, with our three plastic fasteners removed, weve got one bolt that also needs to be removed.

With the trim panel removed and set aside, we now move over to the passenger side so that we can go ahead and lower the exhaust. To lower the exhaust, we need to remove the two rear tailpipe hangers. Easiest way to remove these hangers is take a little spray lubricant, and spray down the metal portion of the hanger, and then well remove the rubber isolator that hangs in between. As you can see, this will give us additional working room so that we can get to the weld nuts above the exhaust. The attachment points here on the driver side, again will be the weld nuts and the frame.

Each one of our weld nuts and the frame will need to be cleaned out before we install our hardware. To do this well use a little spray lubricate and 1/2 inch nylon tube brush, part number 814092 to clean up the threads of the weld nuts. Theres the rear attachment point on the driver side, were going to go ahead and repeat the same process for the rest of the attachment points. Now, as we install our hitch, were going to take the provided blocks, and they will get put on top of the hitch, and sandwiched between the hitch and the frame. Our fasteners will be our 12 mm bolt and conical tooth washer with the teeth of the washer facing the hitch.

Now is a good time to get an extra set of hands to help you hold the hitch in place while you install your fasteners and blocks. When you install your fasteners, recommend to go hand-tight until you get each fastener in position. With the driver side installed, well go ahead and repeat the same process on the passenger side. All right, now with all our fasteners installed, well go ahead and tighten them down. Now with all our fasteners tightened down, well go ahead and torque to specifications as indicated in the instructions. Now with all our fasteners torque to specifications, well go ahead and reinstall the exhaust. That will complete the install of our Draw-Tite Hitch, part number 75270 on our 2012 Honda Odyssey.

Very fast delivery and fit like a glove. For those who have a used vehicle, IMO it is much faster to clean out the existing welded frame bolts by buying a tap from your local automotive store to match the bolts that come with your hitch. In my case, the tap was $6.50 and the size was a metric 12 with a thread size of 1.25. I screwed the tap into each frame welded nut hole one time after spraying each hole with WD-40, which cleaned out the rust and road grime and allowed me to install the hitch bolts with ease.25917

holes are not matched the van These are 1 to 0.5 mm mis-alignment from the holes on this hitch, so I can only apply two screws on each side. My van is 07 Odyssey. My friend own 02 Odyssey and he had the same order of the hitch and he had the same problem. If I knew this earlier, I would order another brand. The only one thing that I can make myself to be little relax is, he had installed that for 2 year for carrying 4 bikes, so far the hitch still do the good job.1984

I was 100% satisfied with the quality of the hitch. The installation was a breeze. I had that thing installed in no more than a half hour. The only complaint I have is how it was shipped. By the time the hitch got to my house, it had wore holes in the box it was packaged in. That caused the hitch's coat of paint to be chipped and scraped in a lot of areas. I had to spot spray paint in several areas to avoid premature rust prior to installing. 11830

I receive the hitch assy in only 3 days complete with installation instructions that were easy to understand with the necessary hardware The hitch almost fit as advertised. I had to pry each side to get all 3 bolts started, but once bolted up, the hitch looks like a professional installation. The wiring harness was easy to install also and the instructions were clear.12889

The hitch is just what I expected. The installation instruction and video's made this a success on installation. The 2000 Odyssey had no hitch and was driven up to the mountains for skiing for almost 11 years. The instructions to run the bolts in and out till the thread became "clean" worked great. It took several hours to clean out the bolts but once clean the hitch was installed with no problems.9835

Took the hitch out of the box and squirted some WD40 into the tread holes for the bolts. Hung the right end of the hitch over the tail exhaust pipe, screwed in a couple of bolts on the left end of the hitch, then started the all 3 bolts on the right end and snugged them up, doing the same on the left, torque them all up. The holes on the hitch perfectly matched the stud holes on the the vehicle frame. It took less than 15 minutes to mount up the hitch. Thank you for a fine manufactured product.9808

This Draw-Tite hitch was a perfect fit for my 2010 Honda Odyssey. It is sturdy and the mounting bolts look like it will have no difficulty towing heavier trailers. We were pleased that the shipping date was advanced to a more expensive plan with no additional cost to me. The staff at Etrailer is efficient and friendly. Each item I purchased arrive on or before the date promised.8581

Outstanding Customer Service and Product Price was great, shipping was upgraded, installation videos made it all easy. I installed the Draw Tite hitch and Reese plug in for a 2008 Honda Odyssey. I did it on my own in under 20 minutes thanks to the videos provided by etrailer.com. There is no reason to pay anyone to install this if you are physically able. Had I not reviewed the installation video, I might not have attempted the install. Great communication from etrailer.com and great product. I am a very happy customer. 5217

2011 Honda Odyssey Tourning trailer hitch The hitch arrived in two days even though it was supposed to take 3-5. It arrived in perfect condition. The instructions was clear and easy to understand. You may want to update the instructions for the 2011 Touring as there is a plastic boot on the drivers side that needs to be removed. It can be replaced after installation of the hitch, but it doesn't really appear to serve any particular purpose. I installed the hitch with no lift or jack stands. By raising one side and holding it with plastic wire ties it only took me 30 minutes to install the hitch, and another 10 to replace the boot. Everything lined up with little or no effort. 5176

Quality Assessment of Received Hitch Product received was exactly what was ordered, installation was simple and performed within 25 minutes. Only one recommendation...improve the handling and packaging of the hitch. It was received with a large scratch on it. There were no packaging materials in the box. The consumer should never receive a product that is damaged. Would you buy a new vehicle with a large scratch?3825

Installed in a snap I installed this on my 06 Odyssey in the fall of 05 and we recently traded for a 2010 model. I am transferring it to the 2010 model after some touch up on a few rust spots on the hitch. Thanks to my coating the nuts and bolts with white lithium grease when I installed it in 05, when I went to remove it from the older van it came off with a minimal amount of torque and the bolts backed out as smooth as silk. What a great product. I plan on using it for many more years to come.3491

Skip the dealership! We just bought a popup camper and needed to install a hitch for it on our 08 Odyssey. Your installation videos convinced us to give it a try, especially when the Honda dealership wanted almost four times the price. We installed it this morning. The hardest part was cleaning out the holes - the actual installation was pretty simple, but for us it was a 2-person job. We didn't need a jack or anything. Well done, etrailer! I've already recommended you to some friends.3221

Works great on a 2006 Odyssey If you can screw in 6 bolts, then you can install this hitch yourself. I didn't even have to lower the exhaust pipe, as I could simply move it off to the side a bit to get a straight line to the pre-existing screw holes. I was able to install this without lifting the van off the ground. I used some wood to prop the hitch up a bit, then was able to easily screw it on. I did it by myself with no help.2721

Nice Hitch! Installed this hitch on my '05 Odyssey. Was very easy to install once the mounting tappings on the car were cleaned. After 4 years and 60,000 miles, there was a tremendous build up of rust in the tapped threads. It took a lot of WD-40, a wire pipe cleaning brush (one typically used to prep 1/2" copper pipe for plumbing) and an pneumatic impact wrench to work the bolts in and out of the threads until the treads were sufficiently workable. If my Odyssey was a brand new '09 model, it probably would have been a snap to intall the hitch in just 15-20 minutes.2282

Easy to Install EXCEPT... Great Service from eTrailer-very responsive. I watched video on installing hitch for Honda Odessey- did not need to move exahuast - able to slip around easily. Only issue was bolt holes closest to bumber on both sides (left/right). No amount of cleaner/brush etc would allow those bolts to thread more than half way. Solution, half inch breaker bar. First four bolts in smooth as silk, done in 10 minutes. Last 2 bolts, let's just say more than 10 minutes. Looks great and even thought it is a class III you can hardly notice it. Thanks eTrailer - you are definetly on the recommend list!1901

I ordered this Sun night before Memorial Day. Within 15 mins of ordering it I had received an email from eTrailer saying the order was being processed for shipment. Wow. Fast service even in the middle of a holiday weekend! Got it on Wed. Super fast service and delivery. I have bought several items from eTrailer and I am always impressed with the service. This item was a trailer hitch for a 2013 Honda Odyssey. The video on their website for install is great. eTrailer provides videos for a lot of the items they sell and that makes install easy. Set my laptop up in the garage for viewing and 30 mins later hitch was installed. Prices for hitches are very reasonable and you will not find them lower elsewhere, and FREE shipping! Buy here!!

The hitch was quickly delivered. I tried to install the hitch but the threads of the nuts were filled with hard dirt. I tried cleaning with a wire brush and WD-40, but in the end required getting the appropriate tap to clean the threads (M12x1.25 for a 2005 Honda Odyssey). After the threads were clean, I was able to install the hitch very quickly. If you have driven down dirt roads often, then you should order the tap, when you order the hitch, so you don't have to wait around to install the hitch (I checked 3 automobile stores and they did not have the tap, and had to order it).81918

I was lurking the etrailer site for about 3 months, then after reading all the consistent good reviews and watching the very informative video, I decided to go for it. I ordered the Draw-Tite because it was the same initials as mine, no really I did. Package arrived on time, kept an eye on it with the tracking number anyway. The DT hitch had all the necessary parts come with it. The only main flaw was a blemish on the cross-tube's finish. I dont think it will effect the product in the long-run, but I took a pic of it anyway, so we shall see. Installed it by myself, did not remove the muffler, about 45 minutes total and did not rush myself at all. Looks great, exactly as it appears on the website, so far so good. Put my Thule 2-bike carrier on it, works perfect. Adding a cargo rack this Memorial weekend to drive down to San Diego, this will be a true test. About a month in after install, I am noticing a couple "rust" spots in the receiver hole. That's a little weird for my area of Southern Cal, because it doesnt rain and I DO NOT park near sprinklers or water sources while in my driveway. Going to take a pic and let the etrailer guys know about it and see what they say... 81382

The product is great. But I'm pretty sure that I was sent the wrong size bolts to bolt the trailer hitch to my van. I thoroughly cleaned the welded threads with a solvent and brush. The bolts that were sent were so much larger than the threads on the frame that I ended up tapping out new threads to match the bolts. The hitch it self was great. It took me about 5 hours to put the thing on my van because of the tap job I had to do.79807

We recieved our hitch quickly and in perfect condition. We put it on last night and it was really easy and quick. My only complaint is that the ends of the hitch(the part that bolts on to your car) tore through the side of the box during shipping and scratched up my hardwood floor really badly when the kids drug the box in from the front porch. Great product, I just suggest that you find a more efficient way to package the item(maybe cover those sharp ends with bubble wrap or something?) 70870

On my Honda Odyssey 2000 my Hitch came with the wrong size bolts...my frame already had nuts welded into it, but they were rusted some what closed and needed to have a tap ran through the (6) of them; however, since I didn't have the right size bolts, I was stuck with the problem of finding out what size they were suppose to be. After, calling 2 dealer ships, I was able to get the size which were 12mm x 40mm long standard threads. Now, I had to go across town to chase them down. When I looked on line, I found that this seems to be an on going problem with the Tite Draw, which caused a few people some real headaches...no one wants to deal with this type of an issue when installing something...67804

Have not installed the Trailer Hitch on our Odyessy yet, but from the looks of the hitch and wiring, quality appears to be first class. Instructions that come with the hitch are not very clear, but the etrailer video on the install process convinced me this would be a simple install. I strongly recommend to view the installation video. It goes a long way to verify the install process is simple and straight foreward.56869

My 2000 Honda Odyssey suffered damage in August 2012 to an Item 75270 trailer hitch that was purchased and installed in 2011. This damage was not repairable and so I repurchased this same trailer hitch and installed it yesterday, August 24, 2012. Removal of the damaged trailer hitch went smoothly and quickly. Installation of the newly purchased trailer hitch also went smoothly. I would highly recommend this trailer hitch as the fit was perfect. My wife and I did this work ourselves. I am 77 and she is 66.53055

Very happy with the products I purchased. They shipped fast and the online tracking was awesome. The hitch and wiring installed very easy. I wish I had about 2 more inches of ground clearance under the hitch. It scrapes the driveway pulling in and out. Other than that. Everything went great. Thanks49484

My Draw-Tite hitch arrived well packaged and in only a couple of days. The hitch fit my 2005 Honda Odyssey perfectly and installation was a breeze after the threads were cleaned out with a M12 x 1.25 pitch thread tap. Thanks to all the other reviewers recommending the thread cleaning tap. The hitch is solid and well built. I will not hesitate to buy another Draw Tite hitch or order from etrailer.com again.48847

Not sure who takes the hit for this but my hitch arrived only wrapped in shrink wrap (no box). There were several areas on the hitch that had cut through the wrap and were missing paint. Some areas had already rusted. I will have to repaint the hitch before I can install it on my Odyssey. Disappointing.48728

I installed the hitch on a 2006 Honda Odyssey with 112,000 miles on it. The threads had rusted and no amount of lubrication was going to allow the bolts to go in. I went to a local hardware and was able to pickup a tap and was able to carefully re-cut the threads. Once this was done the bolts went in easily. It is a two person job. Once I had the threads in good shape it took 15-20 minutes to attach the hitch. The videos for the hitch and the wiring were worth the time to watch them, both videos were quite helpful. 48416

Order shipped very fast. I was able to bolt it onto our Odyssey with minimal fuss. Had to use a wirebrush to clean out the debris and rust from our 4 year old minivan's threads, and a breaker bar came in handy to get the bolts tightened all the way. Despite what the instructions said, it was not necessary to remove the exhaust mount. It was easy to slip the hitch mount over the top of the tailpipe. In fact, it provided a nice way to hold it up while I secured the other side.48091

This is the first hitch I've purchased, and I'm very happy with it. I priced several local places to purchase and install a hitch on our 2007 Honda Odyssey, and the prices were anywhere from $240 to $700. I decided to purchase and install it on my own. My wife was a little nervous about this option, but the videos on the site made it VERY easy. The install time mentioned on the site was 00:30, but I had it completely installed in about 15-20 minutes. And although it's recommended that you have an extra set of hands, I found it very easy to install by myself by propping up one end of the hitch on top of the exhaust pipe (which was also mentioned in the video). My only complaint, and it's certainly not a major one, is that the hitch was packaged in a large box without any reinforcement/padding. Part of the hitch was sticking out of the box and got scratched up in transit. Because it's a hitch and not something fragile, I wasn't too worried. Very happy with the purchase and the experience overall. 48028

Placed my order for the draw-tite hitch and wiring harness and started receiving immediate feedback. Shipment and delivery were fast. I installed the hitch as instructions indicated, except the part of lowering the exhaust. On my '06 Honda I simply was able to slide the hitch up over the exhaust pipe without having to lower. The hitch fits well. Honda's design does not give enough room, with fuel tank mounting, to allow any make of hitch to be more concealed up under the bumper cover. So, going in you will have to be ok with any make of hitch showing from behind the vehicle. 48011

Prompt shipping and everything was delivered as ordered. I had a slight issue with the holes closest to the front of the vehicle not aligning up with the holes in the car. They were off every so slightly but enough to need a second pair of hands to pull on the hitch to line them up. Otherwise, a 1 person install and a great product; it looks great on my 08 Honda Odyssey. Thanks!.47550

Great product. Installation videos were super helpful. Bolted right up. Did need to remove the exhaust hangers to get to the bolts on the right side. A little WD-40 and they slid right off. Would've gone better if I had a larger socket wrench... a cheap socket set and a 12" piece of PVC pipe for a breaker bar (and a little elbow grease) did the trick though.47048

Product was just as it was advertised. One suggestion, however, if you are installing this on a vehicle more than a year or two old I would use a tap to clean out the threads on the factory pre-threaded holes. A wire brush just isn't enough. When you do this take it VERY slow and VERY easy. 46810

Hitch quality is excellent. Very pleased with product and service.

I love it when you talk to a representative on the phone and they really know what they are doing. That's the case with etrailer.com. I normally order online, but I did not know which class of hitch I needed, so I called and the rep was very knowledgeable. Fixed me up with the right hitch for my need, along with the right accessories. Now I'm hauling my new trailer and finally carrying my own yard debris instead of paying someone else to do it. You can't go wrong with etrailer.com.45286

Pretty quick shipping. The hitch is great and bolted right up to my '06 Odyssey with everything included no problems and the lighting harness could not have been easier. The hitch's powder coat suffered a bit in shipping with parts or the hitch poking through the packaging and scraped up (thanks USPS). Better packaging or better shipper would be desired. I have two suggestions make available or include the 12mm x 1.25 tap in the install kit. You MUST use a tap to clean those threads for the hitch unless the car is brand new and that fine thread tap was not easy to find. Also, a free hitch plug included (instead of trying to sell one at the end of the sale) would be a nice touch. Also the large box that the hitch shipped in when flattened doubled for a nice "redneck creeper" to lay on while this shade tree mechanic worked under the van in the back yard. Thanks!43959

Installed pretty easily by myself in our 2012 Honda Odyssey using a few scraps of wood to hold the trailer hitch at the right height. Had a hard time getting the last bolt in place until I got the hitch lined up exactly right. One thing not in the videos online: there is a single screw in the piece of trim which has to be removed from the drivers' side, in addition to the three plastic fasteners. We are using it for a bike rack and so far it works great. 43543

Great hitch. Definitely made vehicle specific. Only issue was the front and rear holes on the driver's side were 2mm too close. I had to bore a tad off the hitch to bolt everything down. Also, take the advice from myself and others: Clean/brush out the weld nuts before you start anything. It will help you later!43351

I did the install by myself albeit I had to hug the hitch and prop it up using my leg. I just wanted to get it installed and didn't want to wait on my neighbor. Two people would have been ideal. Make sure you have a long socket wrench extension. 100% recommend this hitch. 43235

Instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the installation was a breeze, although I had run the appropriate sized tap (M12 x 1.25... they list the size and pitch of the bolt on the instructions, so it's easy to buy the correct tap) through the frame holes, since I live where they salt roads pretty heavily.

Draw tight hitch lined up very well after I spread the ends just a hair by standing on one arm and shouldering the other end and flexed the metal wider. REALLY IMPORTANT TIP: Clean out the welded nut holes and lube with WD-40. Dry run a bolt through each hole BEFORE you go through the effort of getting the hitch in place only to find your welded nuts are rust filled and need to be worked out or have a tap run through them to clean them out. I wish the instructions stated this, would have saved me a lot of time. Customer service was very nice and helpful38655

Delivery of my class III Draw-Tite #75270 hitch by UPS was prompt and in good condition. Kudos to etrailer and UPS. I was able to install the hitch in 30 minutes or less, and all 6 bolts lined up perfectly. The installation videos for the hitch and wiring harness were very helpful. Since my Honda Odyssey is 3 years old, it took a couple of hours to free up the weldnuts in the frame. I used WD40 & Liquid Wrench & just kept working the bolts, untill I got all 6 to go in with finger pressure only. I did not have a 12mm tap, which probably would have made the job easier, however there would have been a greater chance of cross threading the nuts. I checked with Honda and the hitch alone was $250, and removal of the bumper was required. The Honda hitch would fit a little higher and be less visible, but I am very happy with this installation.37204

Exactly as advertised! What surprised me was how fast I received it. I just went for regular 'ground' shipping, and it's almost as if etrailer had some dude standing outside my door with my new hitch in hand, just waiting for me to click "submit order". As far as mounting it...too easy. A small crowbar was necessary to add some leverage for proper alignment, but that of course is completely expected. Overall, I'm very, very happy. 36444

took about 30 - 60 minutes to install and really was not that difficult .I got distracted by the kids installing it or it would have been faster. This did lower the clearance on the car as this will scrape on a few steep driveways, but I am very happy with the hitch.24277

This hitch fit perfectly and all bolt holes lined up. The instructions and hardware were correct. The only suggestion that I have would be for users to purchase/borrow an M12-1.25 tap to clean out the holes before attempting the intstallation. On our 2005 Odyssey there was quite a bit of dirt and rust built up inthe holes. I first attempted to clean out the holes using a wire brush from a gun cleaning kit and just about a whole can of wd40 and really struggled. When I attempted to install the bolts into the dirty holes I was having to use excessive force to turn them and was nervous about breaking one off. Luckily I was able to borrow a tap to clean out the holes and the rest ofthe installation went flawlessly. If you use the tap you can be sure that when you torque the 6 bolts to the recommended 68 ft-lbs at the end you are actually tighly securing the hitch to the vehicle frame. Unless your vehicle it new....get a tap it will save you 2 hours and make the installation more secure. Would be a nice addidition if you could purchase the correct tap from this website when checking out. Thanks!21178

First time customer. Excellent experience. Videos were extremely helpful. Installed on a 10 year old Odyssey and had to re-tap the weld nuts. Everything from etrailer.com was outstanding.20617

Hitch came quickly and attached correctly. It takes some time elbow grease to clean out the nuts on the frame with WD40 and wire brush. Once they were cleaned out the hitch went on easily. 19547

Installation was pretty easy. The 6th bolt hole required a bit of effort to get lined up so the threads would catch. Overall, excellent quality for a piece so large. Wiring harness was simple.17821

The trailer hitch itself looks sturdy, well built and cosmetic. However my hitch had been bent or something. All of the holes would not line up and I had to do a fair ammount of prying to get it to semi-fit. I was only able to secure 5 of the 6 bolts and it took 2 hours for that. Could have sent it back but I was in a pinch for time.18267

I will explain what the parts are and what they do, then I will include some recommendations of parts for your 2008 Honda Odyssey. A ball mount slides into the receiver, or square opening in the hitch. They are available in different heights so that depending on how tall the vehicle is and how tall the trailer is, a ball mount can be selected that will keep the whole rig level.

  • Recommend Trailer Hitch And Bike Rack To Carry 4 Bicycles On My 2007 Honda Odyssey
  • I would recommend going with a Class III 2 Inch Hitch like the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75270 that you selected. A Class III hitch is the highest rated hitch we have available for the 2007 Honda Odyssey and will have the greatest tongue and towing weight capacity. I recommend a Class III hitch, since you will be carry 4 bicycles, the bikes and the bike rack will be considered tongue weight. The Swagman Trailhead 4 Bike Carrier, part # S63380, would be a good option to carry 4 bicycles on you

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2008 Honda Odyssey
  • Because of the mounting locations present on a 2008 Honda Odyssey and the fact that all of the available hitches have cross tubing that is straight across, all of the hitches will be visible on the van. You can look at the pictures on the product pages for the hitches to get a good idea of what they will look like on your van. I have included a link to all the hitches for you to view. I recommend going with a class III trailer hitch because they have a higher capacity and are compatible with

  • Cleaning Out Vehicle Weld Nuts in Order to Install Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75270
  • The bolts used to install the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75270, are M12 x 1.25 x 35mm. The problem you are having is a common one on vehicles that have seen at least one winter. The weld nuts in the vehicle frame have corrosion and/or road grime build up and you will need to clean them out before the bolts will fit. I have included a link to a video that shows the process of cleaning out weld nuts. You will need a spray lubricant like WD-40, and a stiff wire brush, like # DW00254. Once the we

  • Adding 7-way adapter to 75270
  • We have an installation video showing the # ETBC7 kit being used to install a brake controller on a 2009 Odyssey. The short bracket, part # 18136 would be fine for your Odyssey. The actual 7-way mounting bracket can be installed to the 18136 backwards, as shown in the video. This should place the face of the 7-way more or less flush with the face of the bumper.

  • Can Draw-Tite Hitch # 75270 Be Installed on 2011 Honda Odyssey Touring With Parking Sensor System
  • The Draw-Tite Class III 2 Inch Hitch, part # 75270, will fit your 2011 Honda Odyssey Touring model. Since your Honda Odyssey Touring model has a parking sensor system you will probably want to turn the system off when you are hauling bikes on the hitch. With the system activated it would sense the bikes on the back of the vehicle and activate the sensors, when you put the vehicle in reverse. The hitch is located under the vehicle so the hitch itself will not set off the parking sensors. I

  • Honda Odyssey Custom Built Class III Round Tube Trailer Hitch Bolt Sizes

If you have any issues trying to get the bolts into the existing weld nuts on the van we recommend cleaning the holes with a lubricant (like WD40 or PartsBlaster) and a wire brush to eliminate any dirt or debris in the threads. Sometime when doing this installation for local customers we thread the bolt up as far as it will go, remove it, spray a
