Question:
Before purchasing this hitch I wanted to know the distance from the hitch pin to the bumper on the CX-9. I think the Hidden Hitch lists the distance as 7 inches, but there is not a distance listed for the Curt. Thanks for your help!

As you can see by clicking on the provided video link, when we installed the Curt # 13575 on the 2010 CX-9 we found that the hitch pin hole to bumper dimension is 4-3/4 inches. The 2009 model should be similar.
In addition to the hitch, you might also need the following to complete your towing system:
Trailer Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Connector # 118520
Ball Mount # 2923
1-7/8 Inch Trailer Ball # 19260
2 Inch Trailer Ball # 19247
I will link you to install instructions and some install videos that you might find helpful.
