Difference Between Draw Tite Hitches that Fit 2020 Honda Odyssey
Question:
I see Draw Tite makes two 2-inch trailer hitches for my 2020 Honda Odyssey, why is that and which do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
For your 2020 Honda Odyssey the big difference between the two Draw Tite hitches you mentioned is that the # 76171 has a visible crosstube and the # 76170 does not. Having the crosstube out of plainsight makes the hitch look a little better and also helps with ground clearance. Now the install of the the hidden hitch is a bit longer but if you can handle that aspect it would be the hitch I'd recommend the highest. I attached a picture of what this hitch looks like installed as well as a link to an install video for you to check out as well.
If you need trailer wiring too the Tekonsha kit # 118781 is very easy to install and reliable as well. I attached an install video for this too.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
