Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2004 Honda CR-V
Question:
I am looking to purchase a Trailer Hitch Reciever for a 2004 Honda CRV and want to confirm that your product will work. My concern is that the older make of the car may prevent a newer Hitch Reciever from properly connecting to the vehicle.

The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2004 CR-V is the Draw-Tite Max Frame # 75690. This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening.
I have attached a link to an installation video of this hitch on a 2004 CR-V you can check out.
If you plan on doing 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.
If you need a trailer connector on your Honda I recommend the T-One Wiring Harness # 118336. This simply plugs into the vehicle wiring located in the rear cargo area. You will need to remove some panels in the cargo area as shown in the linked video.
