Features to know about

Add More Functionality to Your Vehicle: Class III 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver

This hitch gives your vehicle the ability to haul a small trailer, carry bikes, or attach a cargo carrier. With a 3,500 lbs maximum gross trailer weight (GTW) and a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight (TW), it’s built for light to moderate towing and everyday utility. The 2" x 2" receiver opening works with the most common accessories like ball mounts, bike racks, and cargo trays, so you’ll have plenty of options for how to use it.

No-Nonsense Install: Bolt-On Mounting with Included Hardware

You don’t need to weld or modify anything to get this hitch on your vehicle. The fully welded design bolts directly to the frame using the included hardware kit. The mounting points are made for precision alignment so the bolt holes line up and the install goes smoothly. Everything needed for installation comes in the box, along with clear instructions to help guide you through the process.

Built to Last: Matte Black Powder Coat Over Steel

The steel construction is protected by a matte black powder coat finish that adds durability and corrosion resistance. This rugged finish hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than glossy coatings while giving a clean, understated look under the bumper. The round-tube design adds strength without looking bulky, so it performs well while keeping a tidy appearance.

The hardest part to install this hitch was cleaning out the pre-threaded holes in my and the frame of my 2010 Honda CRV. Besides that you couldn’t ask for an easier install the hitch is as well-made and should last for years. The only thing I’ll say is the packaging needs a major upgrade because of the weight and the angles of the metal the cardboard can easily damaged during transit. Otherwise I have no other complaint Great great product

2008 Honda CR-V

This is the right hitch for my 2008 Honda CR-V but the left side bracket is slightly bent either from manufacturing or shipping (that side bracket had torn through box). You can see the passenger side bracket is straight but the driver side one is not in these photos. I couldn't line up the holes no matter what I did so I will have to return this one for another one that is straight.

A week ago etrailer told me how to fix the bent arm. The side arms are softer than they look. Once I did that it went on easily. Good hitch but poor packaging = 4 stars.

Well made product that’s available from etrailer. I’m very impressed with the customer service, website, and the follow-up email in the product. Next on the list is a hitch bike rack.

Extremely easy to install. I had to re-tap my mounting holes on my vehicle due to rust from Iowa winters. This was the hardest part of the installation but was still pretty easy. It was a walk in the park other than that.

by: Celso 11/27/2025

There were a few minor scratches from shipping, but it's a trailer hitch and will be dinged up during use anyway. The build seems very solid. They design fit the factory mounting points exactly. Its a 2 person job to get 1 bolt in on each side, then 1 person can finish the rest. The shipping was fast to Phoenix,AZ.

It was a easy install , just had to run the bolts in and out of the bolt holes to clear the little bit of dirt and rust

by: Eric 08/28/2026

Perfect welds, fit and finish. They aren’t kidding when they say there might be some rust in the weld nuts. Took a bit to clean those out, but once that was done install was a snap. I use a short piece of 2” square tube attached to the floor jack and use that to hold the hitch up, making it an easy one person job. Couldn’t talk my wife or my cat into helping out.

Arrived promptly, no missing parts, no damage. Watched etrailer's installation videos and was confident I could do the job. Turned out to be very straightforward and easy, just take your time and check your work. Holds my Kuat rack without issue.

Well made and fit perfectly. Video showing how to make your own tap was very helpful. Cleaning threads in weld nuts is by far the most time consuming part of the install. Make sure you are cleaning the correct weld nuts required for attachment! I cleaned 2 that were not needed. 2011 Honda C-RV

It is great! It fit perfectly. My only problem was chasing out the existing threaded holes for the M10 x 1.25 bolts. There were crusty and hard to access. But other than that it was an easy install,

by: Jack 07/07/2024

2011 Honda CR-V

The install is closer to 90 minutes and you will need a second person to hold it up while putting the screws in. I am eating it 3 stars because for some reason the tolerance between the muffler and the hitch is very tight and the muffler will occasionally rattle against the hitch and produce an audible and annoying rattling sound.

Jack, we do have a FAQ that can help in eliminating the hitch rattle. Please see it below.

2011 Honda CR-V

Overall good experience with etrailer.com and with the install of this hitch. First the not-so good. Hitch arrived w/o mounting hardware and instructions. There was a tear in the box so its possible it fell out. etrailer responded the same day and sent out the hardware. The hitch itself did have some scratches on it, some down to the metal. I've done a few of these inexpensive hitches in the past and have found the powder coating doesn't hold up well if you live in the rust belt (New England) so prepare to wire brush it and coat it with Rustoleum once a season.

Now the good. Installation instructions were simple and easy to follow. All the holes lined up and the hardware was the proper size. The hitch is sturdy and is a perfect fit for my 2011 CRV.

I do have a couple of install tips. If you're not familiar with dropping the muffler it can be tricky. I had to look it up. Basically spray some soapy water on the mounts and work them off with your hands and a screwdriver. I was able to rest the muffler w/o having to support it. The nut threads on my car were rusted and I could not thread the bolts in. I picked up a tap on [online vendor] for $[XX] and tapped the threads on all 4 bolts to fix that problem.

by: Rachelle 09/09/2025 One Year Later

Easy install. Durable, well constructed, been using it for a year now on my crv and no complaints or issues.

by: Tony 10/30/2025

The bolts were the wrong size so I had to find the correct ones

by: Stephen 09/16/2024

Installing the trailer was very easy using the video provided by etrailer.com. The video saved me time and effort since my 2010 CRV required the holes be tapped prior to installation. This warning was provided in the installation video. The product exceeds our expectation. We use it to pull a kayak trailer.

by: Tostada 06/27/2024

2011 Honda CR-V

Absolutely NOT a 40 minute job. Closer to 2 hours. If you are putting this on a CRV that's parked outside, rustbelt, or more than about 5 years old, you will encounter SUUUPER rusty bolt holes. You will need a tap, oil, and patience. It's very tedious work.

This will take you an eternity of fighting with a tap to clean out. This took at least an hour to clean the 4 bolt holes alone. You don't have great access to the holes, and if you don't have a tap and die set, it won't be easy to clean. These frame mount holes are rust pockets.

Second, the tow rating on this vehicle is 1500 lbs. There's precious little point in having a class 3 hitch when you'd be a fool to tow that much with this.

Far better option, despite having to enlarge the body mount holes, is the class 1 hitch part number C11555. That doesn't use these rusty frame mount holes. Not only is the C11555 hitch cheaper, it will be far easier to install on an older CRV that's been exposed to salt or water.

Hindsight being what it is, I immediately regretted purchasing this class III hitch after seeing how much work it would be to clean those threads out. I even looked prior to purchase and was deceived at how much rust was on the threads. It doesn't exactly inspire a lot of confidence in towing knowing this is bolted to an old frame like on my 2011.

You will need 2 people to easily install this, and it was nigh impossible to properly torque 1 of the four holes without fully removing the exhaust.

I undid three of the exhaust hangers, but on the AWD version of the CRV, there is a sway bar in the back that limits how far the exhaust can fall. None of the videos show an AWD version with the sway bar.

So I nipped up the bolts as best I could, but 1 of the 4 was nowhere near the 49 ft lbs needed, and there's nothing I can do about that. I was able to get maybe 30 ftlb on it, but I locktited the frame bolts.

Strongly consider getting C11555 hitch, which will be lighter, easier to install despite having to enlarge the hole slightly, and likely to work just as well.

by: Jim 03/29/2023

My 2011 CR-V only has 55K miles on it (2023), so the rubber for the exhaust hangers was still easily removed. This hitch, like at least 3 others I've installed from E-trailers, was perfectly aligned, all hardware I need was included, and simple to install. Needed a bit of help to initially lift it and get the bolts started, but very straight forward install.

Do you have a question about this Trailer Hitch?

Availability of 2 inch Hitch that Fits 2011 Honda CR-V
Hey Luke, we do not still carry that hitch for your 2011 Honda CR-V. The closest option we have that could work would be the etrailer hitch part # e39AR which is also a 2 inch trailer hitch confirmed to fit your vehicle.

Is OEM or Aftermarket Hitch Better Quality for a 2011 Honda CR-V
Hey Judy, thanks for reaching out! The quality of OEM vs aftermarket hitches is usually pretty comparable. The pricing on what you're looking at seems to be okay, but what you're likely going to see is a pretty big price tag on the labor involved in the installation - that's how they really get you. An aftermarket hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e39AR will save you a little on the hitch side of things, which you can then turn around and give to a local trusted shop to...

Tow Package for 2007 Honda CR-V
Hey Nelson! We are only able to make videos when we get a vehicle in for installation. If we don't have a video it doesn't mean we don't have parts that will fit. For your 2007 Honda CR-V I recommend the etrailer # e39AR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and a bolt-on installation. It also has a unique matte black finish which helps hide dirt and scratches. For wiring you can use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C55106. This plugs into the connection point in your...

Tap Size to Clean Bolt Holes for etrailer Hitch Installation on 2011 Honda CR-V
Hey Terry! Before using a tap we do recommend trying to clean out the holes. Typically this is enough to be able to install the bolts and you don't risk messing anything up. I attached an article below which covers that process. The bolts used to install the # e39AR are M10x1.25 so the corresponding tap will do the trick if you go that route. What do you plan on using the hitch for? If you plan on towing make sure you also get wiring # 118427 along with a ball mount # e77DR for a complete...

Trailer Hitch Weight for a 2011 Honda CR-V
I'd be happy to help! All of the hitches for your 2011 Honda CR-V weigh relatively the same when it comes to the different classes, and while the Class I hitches definitely weight lighter I recommend using a Class III hitch since they have a 2" receiver and can handle a wider variety of accessories. Out of the hitches listed below I recommend the Draw-Tite Hitch # 75547 since it's a Class III hitch with a weight of about 27 lbs. Here are the rest of the hitches: Class I Draw-Tite -...

Best Hitch for a 2011 Honda CR-V
I pulled the manual for your 2011 Honda CRV. It says your vehicle tops out at 1,500 lbs for towing capacity so paying extra for a 4,500 lbs capacity hitch like item # 75547 doesn't make sense. Adding this high of a capacity hitch won't give you anymore than the 1,500 lbs your CRV is rated for. The best hitch for both value and ability is going to be the etrailer Hitch item # e39AR.

Hitch Recommendation for 2011 Honda CR-V
Hey John, for your 2011 Honda CR-V I would recommend the etrailer hitch part # e39AR which has a 2 inch opening, great towing capacities, and and easier install. The 2 inch hitch size is the most popular hitch size which means the most accessories are made for it.

Will The Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring From a 2005 Honda CR-V fit The 2007 CR-V?

Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2011 Honda CR-V
Of course! I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e39AR for your 2011 Honda CR-V because it's a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver plus it has the clean looking matte black finish. The 2" receiver means you have access to more accessories and the matte black finish looks cleaner and is more durable than the standard glossy black finish we see on all of the other hitches. Then for a bike rack I really like the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU84FR because it's compatible with a wide...

Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit For 2010 Honda CR-V
You said receiver and hitch, though that is one and the same, which is what I believe you were asking.
