• Recommended Trailer Hitch for Bike Rack on 2009 Honda CR-V
  The three Class I trailer hitches available that are confirmed to fit your 2009 Honda CR-V all feature an almost identical design and they will all install at the same location on the vehicle's frame. All three hitches have the same 200 pound tongue weight capacity and will provide you with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. Between these options, I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24792. This is simply because unlike Curt, Draw-Tite does not require the use of...

• 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 -...

• Difference Between Square and Round Tube Trailer Hitches for 2010 Honda CR-V
  There are both Class I and Class III trailer hitches available that are confirmed to fit your 2010 Honda CR-V. The available Class I hitches, such as the Draw-Tite Sport Frame # 24792, feature a square tube design, while the Class III hitches like the Draw-Tite # 75547 have a round crosstube. This crosstube shape may appear to indicate the hitch's strength, as they differ between the two classes, but the design is typically only relevant to the physical appearance of the hitch. A round...

• Bike Carrying Options for 2011 Honda CR-V
  For exactly the reason you stated, Thule states that none of their trunk mounted racks will work with your 2011 Honda CR-V. Yakima states a few of their trunk-mount racks will fit. Occasionally, we will have one manufacturer state that the vehicle is compatible with a trunk mount rack, and the other will say that it is not. In that case, I typically do not recommend using a trunk mount. Installing a hitch and using a hitch-mounted bike rack would be your best bet. If you were only wanting...

• The Right Bike Rack for a Class I Hitch on a 2007 Honda CR-V
  The difference between classes is how much weight each can carry. A Class II bike rack is rated to hold more weight and you run the risk of overloading a Class I hitch. Also, Class I receivers physically will not except a higher class item. They are not designed to fit together. You could install a Class III hitch such as the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75547. With this Class III hitch you could use any of our bike carriers. We have many popular bike racks that will fit a class I hitch...

• What Parts Can I Use to Adapt a 2 Inch Bike Rack to a 1-1/4 Inch Hitch for a Honda CR-V
  You can use a 1-1/4 to 2 inch adapter like part # HTAD, however, this will reduce your tongue weight capacity by 50 percent. Draw-Tite hitch, part # 24792 has a tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds. If you were to use an adapter like # HTAD, your capacity would be 100 pounds. This means that the combined weight of the bike rack and bikes must be 100 pounds or less. If the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle is less than 200 pounds, take 50 percent of that number. Your vehicle towing capacities...

• Replacement Drawbar Recommendation for a 2005 Honda CR-V with a Draw-Tite # 24792
  I went out into our warehouse and measured the distance from the center of the pin hole to the butt end of the shank on the Draw-Tite Drawbar 2-1/8 inch Rise or 2-3/4 inch Drop 2000 lb Kit, part # 3592, and found that it is 1-9/16 inches.

• What Parts are Included with Hitch 24792 and What 1-7/8 Inch Ball Will Fit
  The Draw-Tite, part # 24792, is a 1-1/4 inch hitch opening. You will need draw bar part # 3593 and must only be used in the rise position on your CR-V. The draw bar has a 3/4 inch shank diameter so you could use part # 19256 as your ball. Using these parts, your maximum tongue weight is 200 pounds and maximum trailer weight is 2,000 pounds. If your CR-V has lower ratings, you must abide by those. I have included a link to the instructions for the hitch and draw bar.

• What is Necessary to tow a Motorcycle and Trailer Behind a 2006 Honda CR-V?
  We can help set you up to tow your motorcycle on a trailer with a 2006 Honda CR-V. If your max towing weight is 1,500 lbs, and you estimate your motorcycle and trailer to have a combined weight in the neighborhood of 800 lbs, you are not going to need a Class III hitch. Your best bet would be to go with the Class I Draw-Tite, # 24792, which is a bolt-on installation and will not require you to drill.

• Which Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2008 Honda CR-V
  The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24792 is a confirmed fit for a 2002 - 2006 Honda CR-V. The # 24792 is not your best choice. For your 2008 Honda CR-V I instead recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75547 due to it having a 2x2 receiver that will give you more options for accessories than a 1 1/4 x 1 1/4 receiver, and having a higher tongue weight and trailer weight rating than the other trailer hitch receivers for your vehicle. You will need to check your vehicle's...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2002 Honda CR-V for Carrying 3 Bikes
  I assume the Draw-Tite trailer hitch that you are referencing is part # 24792, which is the Class I hitch by Draw-Tite for the 2002 Honda CR-V. If this is the case, then this trailer hitch will work with any hitch mounted bike rack that was designed to fit a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch shank. Class I trailer hitches are limited to carrying a maximum of 2 bikes. The issue that you will run into when trying to carry a third bike on a Class I hitch is that the weight of the third...

• Why are the Trailer Hitches for a 2004 Honda CR-V Rated for More Weight than the Vehicle
  It's true, Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24792, as well as the other hitch options for the 2004 Honda CR-V, exceed the capacity of the vehicle. All that means is that the hitches have those ratings, but you are still limited to the capacities of the vehicle since it is rated lower. The reciprocal would also be true: if the vehicle was rated higher than the hitch you would go by the hitch rating since it is lower. The reason there are 2 inch hitches available for this vehicle is demand. The...

  Your 2009 Honda CR-V can be fitted with either a light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class I hitch like Draw-Tite # 24792 or a heavier-duty 2-inch Class III hitch like # 75547.

• Trailer Hitch and 5-Way Wiring Harness for Towing a Jon Boat with a 2007 Honda CR-V
  If all you plan on towing is the boat and trailer then 200 pound tongue weight capacity and 2,000 pound gross trailer weight capacity of the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24792 that you have referenced would be a good choice. Check the owners manual on your CR-V because I believe that the towing capacity of the vehicle is 1,500 pounds and it is important that you stay under that. The correct ball mount for this hitch is # 3592. For a 1-7/8 inch diameter ball use # 19256. And if you ever need...

• Class III Hitch Recommendation and Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2008 Honda CRV Carrying 4 Bikes
  For carrying 4 bikes you will need to use at least a Class II hitch. Since there are only Class I and Class III hitches available for your 2008 Honda CR-V I would recommend you get a Class III hitch like the Draw Tite Hitch # 75547.

I attached installation instructions and an installation video for this product...
