Expert Answers about Honda CR-V


  • Parts Needed To Flat Tow a 1997 Honda CR-V AWD Automatic
  • Yes. You'll want to check your owners manual for confirmation and the procedures for flat towing but my research is showing that the 1997 Honda CRV can be flat towed. In order to flat tow you will need a number of parts from the following categories: base plates, tow bar, safety cables, lights/wiring, supplemental braking and a rise/drop adapter. I've compiled a short list of the parts here: Base Plates: Roadmaster Crossbar Style # 1528-3 Tow Bar: Roadmaster Tracker # RM-020 (requires...

  • Trailer Hitch, Bike Rack, And Hitch Extender For A 2001 Honda CR-V
  • I do have a solution for your 2001 Honda CR-V, however using a 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" class I hitch may not be the best choice. Since you have a spare tire on the rear of your vehicle, you're going to need to use a hitch extender like # HES0. What this is going to do is, push your hitches receiver opening out past your bumper giving you the clearance to use your bike rack without interference. The only catch is, whenever you use a hitch extender or any hitch adapters, you are going to limit your...

  • Parts Needed to Mount 4-Pole Flat Trailer Wiring Harness to Trailer Hitch Receiver
  • We have some solutions for you, but the first step you will want to take is to look for a grommet or existing hole in the floor pan to see if you can route the harness out to the underside of the vehicle. If you can find a suitable hole for that, then I recommend using the following parts to create a mounting bracket that attaches to your trailer hitch receiver. 4-Pole Flat Mounting Bracket # 18144 Long No-Drill Mounting Bracket # 18140

  • Adding a 7-Way Connector to a 2017 Honda CR-V
  • Thanks for the pictures. I have a solution for you that will set your 2017 Honda CR-V up identical to your RV but no you don't want to use the Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole with Tester and Cover item # 47345. You are going to need two separate harnesses to have a functional 7-way vehicle connector so you can control your trailer's brakes as well as its lighting functions. The first is the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # 118741. This custom-fit...

  • Base Plate Recommendation for a 1999 Honda CR-V
  • For your 1999 Honda CR-V you would want a Roadmaster Classic Base Plate Kit # 1528-1. The base plate kit from your 2000 Saturn LS would not be the correct base plates for your vehicle as they are all model specific. The # 1528-1 should work well with your falcon tow bar # RM-520 also. I attached a couple FAQ articles on flat towing that you might find informative also.

  • Does Thule Hitching Post Pro Fit on a 2017 Honda CR-V
  • The Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR is a great bike rack for your 2017 Honda CR-V. We've actually test fit the rack on a CR-V just like yours. I've linked the video for you. The Hitching Post Pro will carry 4 bikes up to 35 pounds each. It tilts away from the vehicle and, as you can see in the video, provides enough clearance to open the rear hatch of the CR-V. A locking hitch pin can be added to the rack using # THSTL2. Since you're going to be carrying children's bikes on the...

  • Best Thule Roof Rack for a 2018 Honda CR-V
  • I will be happy to help you pick out a Thule roof rack for your 2018 Honda CR-V! I recommend going with the AeroBlade crossbars as they will reduce both wind noise and drag when compared to traditional square or round crossbars. If your CR-V has flush mounted rails that run front to back then I recommend going with the roof rack which consists of the 47" WingBar Evo Bars # TH711200 Silver or # TH711220 Black, the Rapid Podium foot Pack # TH460R, and the Fit Kit # THKIT3166. This roof...

  • How Many Sets of DL21741 Bunk Rollers Recommended for a 20 Foot Pontoon Boat Trailer
  • Two sets of the Duttton-Lainson # DL21741 bunk rollers would certainly be sufficient. I'd install the rear set about 3 feet in on the bunks, leave about 3 feet of space and install the other set. This will provide the most support for the rear 2/3 of the boat, where most of the weight is concentrated.

  • Information to Help Hitch Installation on 2017 Honda CR-V
  • The Draw-Tite 2-inch hitch # 76128 includes all the mounting hardware needed for no-drill installation in your 2017 Honda CR-V. We have not yet had a local customer bring in their '17 CR-V for hitch installation so we do not have a video for this hitch and your particular vehicle. But I have linked two helpful articles on hitch installation and a video showing a similar hitch installed on a 2016 model year. The overall process will be the same.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2014 Honda CR-V
  • To flat tow your 2014 Honda CR-V I like the Demco Commander II tow bar, part # DM9511012. It includes a 1-1/2 inch rise or drop which can help you not need a high-low adapter and it also comes with safety cables. The base plate kit for the CR-V that pairs up with the Commander II is part # DM9519328. To power the Honda's lights you can use the Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit # RM-155. This bypasses the CR-V's wiring system so there is no splicing necessary. It works independently...

  • Recommended Air Bed Mattress For A 2006 Honda CR-V
  • The AirBedz XUV Air Mattress w/ Built-In Battery-Powered Pump - Camo # 341032 will work great with your 2006 Honda CR-V. The bed will sleep 2 adults in the rear cargo area of your CR-V. The bed has a weight capacity of 900 pounds. It takes 2.5 to 3.5 minutes to inflate. There is a built-in pump with rechargeable NIMH batteries that will inflate and deflate the mattress. I linked a review video below going into further details on the mattress. If you have any further questions please feel...

  • Lock Options for Use with Curt 4-Bike Tilting Hitch Rack C18030
  • We offer Curt Adjustable 6-Foot Cable Lock # C23666 for use with your hitch bike rack # C18030 but really any cable lock will serve to secure your bikes to the rack and even secure the rack to your hitch. The cable lock # e98891, which is 10-feet, should provide enough length to allow you to route it through each of the bikes, and also through the small ring on the upright tube. You can then secure the rack and bikes to the hitch with the one cable lock. If you prefer you can certainly...

  • What Hitch Extender/Adapter Do I Need for My Reese Winch?
  • I have a solution for you. The receiving end of the Hitch Extender for Brophy Hitch-Mounted Stairs # RHSE is only designed to fit Brophy Hitch Stairs # RHS2. Unfortunately, they will not be able to accommodate your Reese winch that is compatible with a 2-inch receiver. With that being said, if you need a hitch extender that will fit with your winch and allow for an additional accessory, I recommend the MaxxTow Dual Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 10" Long # RM-077-10. It is important...

  • Base Plates and Other Equipment Needed to Flat Tow 2013 Honda CR-V Behind RV
  • The Roadmaster # RM-521567-4 base plates you mentioned would be a fine choice. When everything's installed, the towbar itself needs to be 3 inches +/- of level. The base plates will be at 18-1/2 inches off the ground when installed (assuming your CRV is running the stock tire size and is at stock ride height). Because the Stowmaster is a car-mounted towbar, you'll need to use a ball mount whose rise or drop places the trailer ball within 3 inches of 18-1/2 inches from the ground. So, simply...

  • Recommended Clamp On Crossbars for an Audi Q5
  • While we aren't going to be able to send you a photo of the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 installed, however I did check the owner's manual and when this rack is not in use you can use the included M6 x 12.5mm flat washer as a cover for the exposed feet. As far as a roof rack system for your Audi Q5, I recommend sticking with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 and just using the Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRSX030 with it. That...
