Today, on our 2006 Honda Accord, we'll be installing a Curt Hitch, part number C11327. This is what our hitch will look like once it's installed. Next, we'll go ahead and give you a couple measurements to assist your selecting accessories for your new hitch. From the center of the hitch pin hole to the outermost edge of the bumper is 5 inches. From the top of the receiver-tube opening to the ground is 12 inches. This will assist your selecting accessories such as a ball mount, bike rack, or cargo carrier. Now, we'll go ahead with installation.
To begin our install, we'll first point out the attachment points. Because this vehicle is not equipped with a heat shield, our attachment points are all visible, starting with the tow hook here in the center at the rear of the vehicle and then the pre-drilled holes in the frame, both on the driver and passenger side. Keep in mind that each process we do here on one side, we're going to repeat identically on the other, as both attachment points and the frame rails are the same. Next, we'll need to lower the exhaust. Before we attempt to lower the exhaust, I want to put a safety strap underneath first to help support the weight of the exhaust. To lower the exhaust, we'll need to remove the rubber isolators and metal hangers.
First, we'll go ahead and spray them down with some spray lubricant and then use a pry bar or pliers to remove the rubber isolator from the metal hanger. Once we do this, we can then use the safety strap to safely lower the weight of the exhaust. Now with the exhaust lowered and out of the way, we can begin installing the hitch. We'll take our hitch, put it into position, and then install the 1/2-inch carriage bolt into the hitch and secure it with the 1/2-inch flange nut. Then we'll move to the frame rails, where we will take our 7/16 pull wire, 7/16 carriage bolt and block, and feed them into position by taking the pull wire, feeding it through the attachment point and out the access hole just forward in the frame. Then we'll slide on the block and thread on the carriage bolt. We'll feed the block and bolt into the frame and then pull them into position, removing the pull wire.
Note, in some applications, it may be necessary to file or hone out a small section of the access hole to get the block into place. Now, with our hardware in the frame, we'll go ahead and bring the hitch up into position, being careful not to push our carriage bolts back into the frame. Then we'll secure it with the 7/16 flange nuts. Now with our hitch installed and all our hardware finger tight, we'll go ahead and run it down. Next, we'll torque to specifications, as indicated in the instructions. Now with our hitch secured and torqued to specifications, we'll go ahead and reinstall the exhaust.
With that, this will complete the install of the Curt Hitch, part number C11327, on our 2006 Honda Accord. .

Perfect for light-duty towing, this custom, vehicle trailer hitch receiver features fully welded, gloss powder coated steel construction. Drawbar sold separately.Instal was pretty quick. The paint seems to be fairly thick and resistant to corrosion. 524465
I was very pleased with the trailer hitch,extension, and ball I received. The recommendations were spot on. The only recommendation I have to make was the instructions left a lot to be desired. Please consider adding links to youtube tutorials ( that's what I used) or make tutorial videos yourself. Other. Than that,mi would definitely order from this company again. 163724
The product was exactly what my auto prescribed for (unlike U-haul who ordered the wrong part that delayed my project two weeks), and that was due to your sales rep Vince who was very patient in dealing with a Boomer. Rather than being charged $65 for installation, I decided to install it myself. Rather than the half hour that was predicted, I took two hours because the washer needed to be grinded down in order for it to fit the hole on the frame.Your video tutorials were a great confidence builder..I would not have entertained the idea to do it myself otherwise 159154

The hitch was as described but the service that I received was impeccable. Dealt with Wayne H. And he was knowledgeable and very helpful in processing my order. I received my order in a few days. I would recommend this place. 158512
The hitch that you have sent me has been installed as of 1:30 this morning. The installation was very easy and quick. Thank you for the great service! 19407
I received the package from etrailer yesterday. Everything was packed well, in a single carton and undamaged. I prepped this morning to install the hitch and wiring T harness on my 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid (V6, dual muffler, heat shields). Not including prep (gathering tools, level spot etc) it took a little over 2 hours to complete. As expected (pointed out in videos) the metal bracket did not quite fit through the access hold in the frame. I found it much easier to file down the bracket than to widen the hole in the frame. Overall, very very happy. I went a few hours later and purchased a 5X8 utility trailer and pulled it for about an hour on the highway and in traffic. No issues. 221115
Robert E - 08/21/2016Great product, I would recommend friends and colleagues to buy this product 640849
Great service and great product. Thanks 585403
I just finished installing this on my 2003 accord. It took much longer than necessary because the backing washer that is supposed to go in the frame didn't fit into the frame. I had to spend about a half hour grinding the edges down to get them to fit. These parts are clearly not sized properly for this application. In addition the frame bolts could be a few threads longer. It was very difficult to get the nut on without pushing them back into the frame. In addition getting the pull wire off the first bolt is very difficult and almost ruined it. The really should be two of these provided. Then they could be left on until the heat shield is re installed. Overall this is a poor set up and not nearly as easy as my other hitch I got from you. 577354
Just installed it tonight. The install video was excellent. I'm sixty plus and still like to do projects and have the satisfaction of doing it my self. The toughest part of the job is removing the upper exhaust hanger, be sure to spray liberally wth wd-40. Also make sure you support exhaust with strap before removing hangers. 501127
Easy to install. Everything works as advertised. Fits my needs perfectly. 422288
I have used it for my bike rack with no problems. Nice clean piece, the install videos were good and helped save money. Need a torque wrench to do it right. 407983
Awesome ! Went right on ,no problem! Looks good ,feels good ! This is my second hitch (2 different cars) and both of them are flawless ! I can haul my ATV ..landscaping equipment ...but no I still won't help you MOVE !!!!! 396742
Hitch arrived in 4 days, I used the free shipping option, one end was poking out of the box but no damage to the hitch. Followed the video instructions and was done in 50 min. removing the exhaust was the hardest part. Use lube it really helps. 357249
Excellent quality item, installed exactly as described, outstanding customer service 326116
Great customer service when I called. Supper fast shipping.I am very satisfied. Everything was correct and fit perfectly on 2004 Honda accord. Easy to install, less than 1 hour.Looks good. 325060
I was able to install the hitch in my driveway using ramps, thanks to the available youtube video the install is very easy. The only issue I had was torquing the carriage bolt to 110 ft-lb. I ended up stopping over to my local Pep Boys and giving the mechanic 5 bucks to do it for me. Worked out great. The hitch itself is pretty nice, I have no complaints thus far, it's a hitch it does what a hitch is supposed to do. 143906
