Recommended Hitch Adapter for a Honda Odyssey w/ a 2" Receiver
Updated 02/17/2026 | Published 06/17/2024
Question:
I have a trailer hitch on my honda odyssey mini van and I want to get an adapter so that when it comes out of the 2 hole, it goes up so that I can put my bike rack on from the higher point. As it is, my rack hits the ground when I go over low points. I bought the trailer hitch from you

So long as you already have a 2" hitch receiver you can use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver item # D210. This would be the easiest and least expensive way to add some height to your bike rack. It will add 3-9/16" from the top of shank to bottom of the accessory receiver without sticking out too far or lower affecting your ground clearance.
