Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2020 Acura RDX
Question:
I need a hitch for my 2020 Acura RDX to tow my pop up, which one should I get?
asked by: Terry
Expert Reply:
The hitch I recommend for your 2020 Acura RDX is the Class III Draw Tite part # 76268 as it has higher towing capacities than the Class II hitch available for your vehicle # 36114 which will help with towing and it installs easily.
You'll also need the Tekonsha kit part # 118800 which installs easily and has a very reliable converter box.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in 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 include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
