Question:
Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2 Item # 13535 also fit on a 2003 Honda Pilot?
asked by: Brandon A
Expert Reply:
We do have trailer hitches for the 2003 Honda Pilot but Curt hitch # 13535 only fits the 2002 to 2006 Honda CR-V. The Pilot and CR-V do require different hitches.
The comparable Curt hitch for the 2003 Honda Pilot is # 13328. I have linked a video showing an example installation for you.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
For a trailer wiring harness you can use # 118336 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle. I have linked a video showing how it installs as well.
