Most Popular Class III for 2016 Honda Pilot

At 68 yrs old, just single-handedly installed the 50 pound Curt hitch receiver on my 2016 Honda Pilot, using two jack stands and the vehicle's car-jack to position it correctly and hand thread the 6 bolts. Made a bit more room for myself by first lifting the back of the vehicle onto a makeshift ramp consisting of two layered 2x6 board. Also first tried to hand tighten the bolts before placing the hitch under the car and found I had a fair bit of rust to work through with rust blaster and wire brush. Instructions were clear and accurate. One tip, do the center bold on the muffler side first (to be able to slide the unit between the muffler and the frame, then the center bolt on the driver's side second. From there, it is a breeze. Took me an hour to get rid of the rust inside the welded bolts, and then an hour to install the hitch.

The item arrived on time and was exactly what I needed. E Trailer is a great place to fill all my towing needs.

Everything worked exactly as stated. Very easy to install. The videos are great. Shipping was fast. Very happy!!

I am using the hitch for a car dolly and a bike rack. The fit is a little loose for the bike rackmI'll see it really works when get on the road.

Great instructions, very timely delivery!

very high quality and fits perfectly.

Great value for the price and it is nice to have everything in one bag! Great quality!

I ordered and received the ball mount and sway bar together. They were received very promptly and in excellent shape. They are very heavy, i.e., heavy duty. The bracket that was fitted to the trailer was about half a screw wider than optimal size for my smallish trailer but did fit. Installation was easy. The self-tapping screws functioned well. All-in-all, a 10 out of 10 experience.

It fits and does it's job, not much else to say.

Haven't towed yet, but how can this not work, right? Workmanship seems solid.

As advertised and quick delivery, I am an Etrailer fan!

Strong and works perfectly!

Easy installation, low profile and excellent quality. Exactly what I was looking for in a hitch receiver for our 2021 Pilot.

This was the perfect fit for my Honda Pilot. Installation was very easy; no mistakes were made! The Curt Towing Starter Kit Trailer Hitch Ball Mount was the perfect match for the Trailer Hitch receiver, as it came in a plastic box that fit perfectly in the small stowable compartment in the back of the Honda. Everything stays in the car, tucked away neatly in the plastic box.

Exactly as described. Well made.

We bought this to tow our 3,000 lbs. boat with our Subaru Ascent with a 5,000 lbs. towing capacity. With the OEM ball mount, we could really feel every jolt and jiggle from hard stops, going over bumps in the road, and trailering down dirt roads. However, the dual cushion ball has really improved our trailing experience. Once we get up to speed, we hardly notice we are towing our boat. It's also great because some of the lakes we visit are down dirt roads, and the cushion makes this a much more pleasant experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone towing a boat or larger trailer with a SUV as it maintains that comfortable ride and the jostling of the trailer is much less noticeable.

Rusted within 30 days. The manufacturer refused to warranty the product. I have continued to use it, but it has required some serious rust mitigation and is a flawed product.

Heavy duty , very good quality.

Ordered this hitch and it worked perfect for what I needed just bought a teardrop trailer. Couldn't open up the tailgate on my Jeep so I ordered this extended hitch and I brought the ball out past my spare tire and the tailgate opens up now I have no problems. And I looked everywhere couldn't find one of this quality and at this price very reasonable the other ones hundreds of dollars didn't want to spend that much.

This was the longest hitch ball mount I could find anywhere. I used it with a short extension for my 2021 T G so that I could open the back doors without hitting the trailer wheel crank. With my new trailer, Intact Flyer Discover, I don't need the extension and can still open the doors. Works well.

Exactly as described. Well made.

Great deal on this, it was almost $20 more locally. Received it fast, it was packaged very well. This looks really clean on my vehicle and I never have to worry about "did I tighten the ball enough".
