Expert Answers about Honda CR-V


  • Can Bike Adapters For Cargo Carriers Work With E-Bikes
  • The design of a bike adapter to work in conjunction with a cargo carrier is great way to get maximum use out of your cargo carrier! The use of such adapters as the Bike Rack Adapter for Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier Part # CC-125 has NOT been tested or confirmed for use when carrying electric bikes. Tech support at Stromberg Carlson has stated they have only done testing with standard bikes, and can not confirm the use of the adapters with e-bikes. If you are looking to safely carry...

  • 7-Way to 4-Way Flat Adapter for Tow Bar that is At Least 6 Feet Long
  • Best solution would be the Wesbar Coiled 7-Way to 5-way part # 787196 which is 8 foot long when stretched. While this has a 5-way and you need only a 4-way it will still work great. There would just be an extra pin hanging over on the adapter side of the connection.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2016 Honda CR-V for Carrying Bike Rack without Stabilizer Strap
  • You would want the Draw-Tite part # 75742 for your 2016 Honda CR-V as it is a confirmed fit and would not require the stabilizer strap like only the Curt hitches do. This is also a Class III hitch with a 2 inch opening that will have higher capacities and more hitch accessories made for it than a Class II with a 1-1/4 inch hitch. I also attached an install video for this hitch as well.

  • Trailer Hitch, Ball Mount, Ball, and Wiring for a 2016 Honda CR-V to Tow a Northern Tool Trailer
  • Yes, ball mount # C45521 can be used for the Ironton trailer you plan to buy. That trailer has a 1-7/8 inch coupler meaning that you would need a 1-7/8 inch ball for the ball mount, # A-80. The ball mount fits a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch receiver. If you do not have a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch you would need one, # C11555. I have linked a video showing an example installation for you. And if you do not already have a trailer connector on your 2016 Honda CR-V you can add a 4-Way using #...

  • Recommended Air Suspension for 2019 Thor Quantum KW-29 Class C Motorhome on Ford E-450 Chassis
  • The AirLift # AL88138 you had looked at is exactly what you'd need. This system is specifically designed for heavier duty vehicles like your Thor Quantum, and would allow you to fine tune your suspension for as soft or firm a ride as you wish. The kit includes the installation hardware, air lines and inflation valves but an optional compressor system like # AL25856 would allow you to add or remove air from the system with a push of the button, no need to hunt for a gas station with a working...

  • How To Prevent Sag On 2004 Honda CR-V With Small Trailer
  • The Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs part # CSS-1125R are the perfect option for a 2004 Honda CR-V. They are super easy to install (no tools required) and will do a great job of helping transfer weight from the rear to the front axle which will improve braking and stability. In regards to shifting items on the trailer to lessen the tongue weight, this is not a good option because it will in turn affect the stability and lead to sway which is possible even with an anti-sway bar. I...

  • E-Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2015 Honda CR-V
  • For an E-Bike rack that would work well for your 2015 Honda CR-V to carry your two E-bikes you would want the Hollywood Rack part # HLY84FR which is reinforced for the heavier bikes like what you have. I attached a review video for you to check out as well. If you need a hitch too you would want the Draw Tite part # 75742 which is a confirmed fit and would work well for you. I attached an install video for this as well.

  • Naked Roof Rack Recommendation for 2013 Honda CRV to Carry Longer Roof Box for Skis
  • The naked roof racks that fit your 2013 Honda CR-V do put the front bar significantly closer to the windsheild like with the Rhino Rack part # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK284 we have installed on a 2013 CR-V so this would be the way to go. I attached a picture that shows the front bar is more than the amount of inches forward that you would need plus an install video on a similar 2014 CR-V as well.

  • What Ladder Rack do You Recommend for a 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 with 6-3/4 Foot Bed
  • Yes! For a great removable ladder rack for your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a 6-3/4" short bed, I recommend the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Aluminum - 500 lbs # A4003991. Not only does this rack come with a 500 pound weight capacity, it also has easily-removable uprights and crossbars. Also, another advantage is that the uprights can be repositioned anywhere on the bed for a custom bar spread. The top of the crossbars stand 27 inches above your truck's bed, you should...

  • Fuse Bypass For 2014 Honda CRV Flat Tow
  • Short answer is yes. You will need to check your owners manual to verify if you need to remove one fuse of two. It just depends on how they set that version up.

If you need to bypass two use the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass Switch for Towed Vehicle - (2) 20-Amp ATM Mini-Fuses # RM76512.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for Bike Rack On 2017 Honda CR-V
  • The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2017 Honda CR-V is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98848. The etrailer hitch has a hidden crosstube design as well as a matte finish which will make for a clean, sleek finished install look. It also offers a bolt-on installation with no drilling required. I have attached a photo below. If you don't already have a bike rack in mind, the Thule Camber 2 Bike Rack part # TH9058 is an excellent option which offers Thule quality at an affordable price.

  • Which Inno Shaper 100 Roof Basket Fits on OEM Crossbars of 2003 Honda CR-V
  • The Inno Shaper 100 cargo basket part # INXA569 that you referenced requires crossbars that have top channels on them.

  • Recommended Adapter To Reduce Rattle For Bike Carrier Installed In 2017 Honda CR-V Trailer Hitch
  • If you have a 2-inch trailer hitch installed on your 2017 CR-V I recommend the Blue Ox Hitch Receiver Immobilizer # BX88224. This adapter uses U-bolts to add horizontal and vertical tension to hitch mounted accessories like the RockyMounts Tandem TailPipe you said you have installed.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2021 Honda CR-V Touring Hybrid
  • We do have plenty of hitches for your 2021 Honda CR-V touring hybrid. I recommend going with a class III hitch like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT79MR. Reason being is almost all hitch accessories like the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR are going to be made for a class III hitch, which has a 2" receiver. Even though this hitch is not recommended to be used on a Hybrid, this hitch can still be installed and used on your Hybrid.

  • 4-Way Trailer Wiring Extension Recommendation to Allow Flat Towed Vehicle & Trailer Behind Vehicle
  • What you'll need is a long 4-way extension spliced into the 4-way you have at the back of the RV. For that you'd want to use the part # HM48235 which is 120 inches long. You'd need to cut off the one end and then use quick splice connectors like # SWC501746-1 to connect to the RV wiring. This will allow the 4-way to operate the CR-V taillights and then you'd be able to route the jumper wire to the back of the CR-V where you can then plug it into your trailer.
