Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.



Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.


In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.


etrailer.com Technical Support

At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers. The one-on-one, personal service you'll receive comes straight from an expert in the towing and automotive field. We've installed it, we've wired it and we've towed with it, so whatever your question, we can answer it.

Provided the right utility aspect for me with almost zero visibility on the rear of my vehicle. It’s hardly noticeable!



by:
2019 Acura TLX

Fits very nicely behind and under bumper and only the receiver can be seen. It mounts a bit higher which is good for ground clearance. The pre-drilled bolt holes in the hitch were a very tight fit but with 2 people or a jack it was easy. Directions were good. Removing the bumper was not actually that difficult. Took me about 2 hours and I am not a professional. Great hitch!

Still going strong. I use it mainly for a bike rack so no heavy duty use. Dont even know its there really....until I mount the bikes!

This hitch receiver is great! Was fairly easy to install on my own (as long as you have your own tools and are mechanically/assembly inclined) for an Acura TLX. I use a Yakima bike rack and it's nice expanding my mountain biking to trails further afield! Thanks Draw-Tite!



by:

Excellent hitch. It has a minimal look to it where you can only see the hitch sticking out. Most of everything else is hidden behind the bumper. It was easy to install and the folks at strainer are great to work with. I would def choose etrailer again in the future for my hitch needs.
Also bought a wire harness from them that was easy to install.

2016 Acura TLX

This receiver hitch fit my 2016 Acura perfectly. The online installation video is what sold the product for me and made the installation process straight forward and easy. I don't own any tools anymore except for a couple of screwdrivers that were to large for the job. I went to a local thrift shop where I know they have a lot of used tools and picked out what I needed according to the video. Five dollars later I had a ratchet, some extensions and all the sockets I needed. I found a small right angle ratcheting phillips head screw driver like the one in the video at Walmart for $9.00. I used a hack saw and a razor knife to cut out the notch in the back fender panel. I started shopping for tools around 11:00 am that day and had the hitch installed by 2:30. However, putting all those little screws back into the left and right wheel wells proved challenging. I finally gave up on the last one around 4:00 but, that's not an etrailer problem now is it.

All and al, the online ordering process and package tracking was excellent. I have never done business with this company before. My order was processed and shipped quickly. 5 stars.



by:
2018 Acura TLX

The link provided on the instruction sheet for additional pictures didn't work. Also the exact details, e.g., number of screws, was a bit off for my particular vehicle. Having said that the whole process was fairly smooth. I had a slight bit of trouble getting the trailer hitch and bumper lined up with the holes but a little help from a floor jack cured this minor issue.

The hitch is solidly built and does indeed work on a 2018 Acura TLX SH-AWD.

I will be using the trailer hitch solely for a bike rack, no trailer towing for me.



by:
2015 Acura TLX

The fit was great. Love how this hitch is low profile, and the only thing visible is the receiver. The installation video was very helpful.



by:

Bought it a year ago. It has been perfect to use with the bike carrier on the back of the car and looks good too!



by:

Was exactly what I needed. Fit my car as promised. Absolutely no complaints. What more can I say?

A year later, the hitch is great. It does exactly what I expect of it. No issues at allwhich is perfect!

Very speedy delivery on this hitch for a bicycle rack. Took it to U-Haul to have installed today and that apparently went smoothly.

I wanted a clean look so I opted for this hitch which turned out great.

There was some extra work on the install but it turned out perfect

  • Can Draw-Tite Class I Hitch 24942 Handle Towing a PWC and Trailer
    The Draw-Tite Class I hitch you'd looked at, part # 24942 has a 2000 lb towing/200 lb tongue weight capacity. A single personal watercraft and trailer weighs between 600-1100 lbs, depending on the model, so if that's the case the hitch as well as the 2000 lb towing capacity of a 1st gen 2015-2020 Acura TLX would be able to handle the weight just fine. To tow the PWC and trailer, you'll also need to add a trailer wiring harness like # 118697, a drawbar like # 3593 and a hitch ball like...

  • Is There a Way to Transport a 225 lb Honda CRF150F Dirt Bike with a 2016 Acura TLX
    Since both trailer hitches for your 2016 Acura TLX, Curt # C11535 and Draw-Tite # 24942, have a 200 lb tongue weight, even if there was a carrier that fit the smaller 1-1/4" receiver the weight of both the carrier and your Honda CRF150F dirt bike would be well over that. This means that the only option for you to transport your dirt bike with that vehicle is by towing it with a trailer. Your owner's manual does state that towing may void your warranty but it is worth noting that you are...

  • Comparing Draw-Tite and Curt Trailer Hitch on 2016 Acura TLX
    There is a photo available showing what the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11535 will look like when installed on a 2016 Acura TLX, which is from the linked installation instructions for this hitch. The crosstube does show with the Curt hitch so if you were looking for a hitch that had a concealed crosstube you will need the Draw-Tite # 24942; I have added a photo we did from an install of this hitch on a '16 TLX so you can take a look at the difference. Each of these hitches is a Class I with...

  • Can I Install a 2" Hitch on My 2020 Acura TLX
    The only trailer hitch fits available for your 2020 Acura TLX are the Class I hitches with the 1-1/4" receiver from Curt # C11535 and Draw-Tite # 24942. I recommend going with the one from Draw-Tite because it has a hidden crosstube which gives you a cleaner look as well as better ground clearance. If you were planning on using this for a bike rack I highly recommend checking out the Kuat Beta # B202-114 because it weighs in at 12.6 lbs, can fold up compact for simple storage, and it's...

  • Recommended 2020 Acura TLX Hitch Receiver
    I know what you're talking about, I've done that a time or ten myself, and it hurts! At present (July 2020) the Curt # C11535 is the only confirmed fit offered for the 2020 TLX. The Draw-Tite # 24942 isn't a confirmed fit for the 2020 model, and although there haven't been any appreciable changes between the 2019 and 2020 TLX, I can't guarantee the Draw-Tite will fit because the manufacturer hasn't confirmed it yet. When we installed in on a 2016 TLX, we found that the distance from the...

  • Does the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Have A Stop Tab
    Hey George yes, the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Htich # 24942 does have the stop tab built into the receiver tube. I did a quick bit of research on your 1UP rack and it looks like it was actually designed to work with 1.25" receivers so you won't have any issues with the tab and it should slide all the way in.

  • Will the Draw-Tite SportFrame Trailer Hitch Interfere With Rear Diffuser on 2020 Acura TLX
    Great Question, Harold. I took a look at the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24942 and it looks like you should be fine. The only thing identified is that the underbody panel(s) and/or fascia must be temporarily loosened or removed, trimming might be needed to reattach panel or fascia, and you will be required to temporarily remove the bumper and fascia, as well as do some trimming to the fascia for installation.

  • Will a 1Up USA Quick Rack Fit Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 24942 on a 2018 Acura TLX
    The Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24942 for your 2018 Acura TLX has a 1-1/4 inch receiver. This is a Class I hitch so a bike rack will need to be Class I rated. Looking at the 1Up Quick Rack they state it fits 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch receivers but they do not mention if the 1-1/4 includes both Class I and Class II hitches or just Class II.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2018 Acura TLX A-Spec AWD
    The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24942 is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Acura TLX A-Spec AWD. The bumper is different than the one in our photo, so I've attached what we have. You bumper will have a better look simply because of the black trim to allow less contrast and a more hidden look. The Curt hitch 11409 has been replaced with the Curt # C11535 which will be far less hidden by design as you stated. Trimming will be required with...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2015 Acura TLX For Bike Rack to Carry Ebikes
    There are two hitches for your 2015 Acura TLX, though they are Class I hitches with a 1-1/4" receiver; there are no 2" hitches made for this vehicle. So you can add one of these hitches, but would need a Class I compatible bike rack, and there is a single option available for that which has the needed capacity for heavy ebikes. First, here are the two hitches that fit your '15 Acura TLX - Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24942 - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11535 While...

  • Which Hitch for 2015 Acura TLX Weighs Less Curt or Draw Tite
    The Curt hitch part # C11535 weighs 29 lbs and the Draw Tite part # 24942 weighs in at 26 lbs so the weight is about same. Both of these are fits for your 2015 Acura TLX. Ground clearance is going to be about the same for either as they both are designed to tuck right under the rear bumper.

However, these photos are on a base model, not an A-Spec as we have not yet had the chance to install a trailer hitch on a 2018 Acura TLX A-Spec.

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2016 Acura TLX
    Absolutely! For your 2016 Acura TLX I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24942. This is a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver. I have included a link to the instructions for you. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch. Check the vehicle owner's manual to see if towing...

Although the instructions show the 2015 TLX, this has been confirmed by Draw-Tite to fit your 2018 Acura TLX but we have not personally been able to shoot an installation video of it as of yet.

  • What is Weight Capacity for Carrying Bikes on a 2016 Acura TLX Using Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 24942
    Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24942 for your 2016 Acura TLX has a tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds. So for the hitch the most a bike rack and bikes can weigh is 200 pounds. The vehicle owner's manual does not list a tongue weight capacity since it was not meant to tow a trailer so go by the 200 pound limit on the hitch. The trailer hitches for your TLX are Class I hitches. You have to make sure the bike rack is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are...
