Today we are going to be installing part number 75563. Which is a Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch. We will be installing it on a 2007 Acura RDX. This also applies to Hidden Hitch Class 87449. Our hitch install is in 2 different points. This very fitting at the end of the frame and this hole here on this part of the frame. What happens is the bolt gets threaded in here obviously. In this hole here we have a handle nut that fits inside this frame and sits just like that. We are going to thread our bolt in and our hitch is good to go. This is the same on both sides of the vehicle. more
