Expert Answers about Honda Civic


  • What Does Working Load Limit Mean for E-Track
  • Good question and the 2,000 lb working load limit (WLL) of the Erickson Horizontal E-Track such as the 5 foot # E19148 is the safe limit for the weight of the cargo the track is helping secure. To simplify, it is the cargo capacity that the track can safely handle so you do not want to exceed it. However, the 2,000 lb limit is per track, so that means if you put down two tracks horizontally, your WLL would go up to 4,000 lbs. This track cannot actually be welded on, it needs to be secured...

  • Can a 2007 Honda Civic Tow a 2011 Sea Doo with a Curt Hitch
  • The Curt Hitch # C11391 that you referenced has capacities of 200 lbs tongue weight and 2,000 lbs gross trailer weight. If your 2011 Sea-Doo and trailer fit below those capacities then the hitch would be fine to tow it. You will need to consult the owners manual of your vehicle to determine what Honda recommends for towing capacities and be sure not to exceed the lower of the two capacities between the hitch and your vehicle. When determining the towing capacity of a setup you should always...

  • Can a 2008 Honda Civic Sedan with Manual Transmission Tow 325-Lb Boat/Trailer
  • Your 325-lb boat and trailer combination is a fairly light tow load but just the same the car maker gets the final word on whether towing anything is advisable. You can check your owner's manual for your specific vehicle since it will reflect the particular version you have (DX, LX, EX, or EX-L) and its capacities. The online version of the owner's manual that I reviewed (page 215) does not prohibit towing in general, so that's a good start. Check your manual (or with your dealership by...

  • Carrying 2 Bikes on a 2003 and 2006 Honda Civic with a Class I Hitch
  • The tongue weight capacity for all of the hitches available for the 2003 and 2006 Honda Civic is 200 pounds. You will need to check your owners manual or with the dealer to be sure that your vehicles tongue weight will support the weight of the bikes and carrier you choose to use. If you decide to use an extender for the 2 inch rack that you currently have it will reduce the tongue weight of the lowest rated component by 50 percent. So, if the bike rack, hitch and vehicle are all rated...

  • How to Pick Out the Correct Ball Mount for 2015 Honda Civic
  • The best way to determine which amount of rise or drop you need from a ball mount (in order to keep your hitched trailer level for the best handling) is to measure as outlined in the linked article. Since the same wheel size could have more than one tire size on it that does not give you the best method for choosing a ball mount. For the Class I hitch on your 2015 Honda Civic you can refer to the linked page to see all ball mounts.

  • Is there a 2 Inch for a 2018 Honda Civic?
  • No, it will not. There are no 2" hitches available from anyone for a 2018 Honda Civic. The only hitches available are class I 1-1/4" hitches due to the small size and capacity of a Honda Civic. To add a hitch to your daughter's 2018 Honda Civic sedan, I recommend the Draw-Tite item # 24954. This hitch is custom fit and mounts behind the rear bumper cover. The only portion visible is the 1-1/4" receiver which not only looks better but helps with ground clearance. I have linked an installation...
