  • Fit of Thule TH9027XT Apex Swing Bike Rack and Draw-Tite 76170 Class III Hitch on 2020 Honda Odyssey
  • The Thule # TH9027XT Apex Swing and the Curt Class III # C64NR hitch will work perfectly with your 2020 Honda Odyssey. When the distance the hitch receiver is recessed under the vehicle is compared to the necessary clearance between the bumper and the nearest upright portion of the bike rack are compared, I found that there's plenty of room to spare. I've linked you to an installation video for the hitch and a demonstration video for the Thule Apex Swing bike rack.

  • Is There a 3,500 Lb Idler Hub with Hub Bore Less Than 64MM
  • I do have an option for you but the standard size hub bore for a 3,500 Lb Idler Hub is 2.59". In order to obtain a smaller hub bore you'd need to step down to a 2,200 lb or 2,000 lb axle and in which case the standard hub bore size is 2.25". I can't imagine you'd be willing to reduce the axle capacity so you can use your wheels but if so, I have attached for you below a list of options.

  • Trailer Hitch with the Most Ground Clearance For a 2019 Honda CR-V
  • The hitch with the most clearance for your 2019 Honda CR-V is going to be the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7345. This hitch measures 15" from the ground to the top inside edge of the hitch receiver. This will give you approximately 13" of total ground clearance. This hitch is made in the USA and has a 2" receiver which is the most common size used for hitch mounted accessories like bike racks, cargo carriers and ball mounts. For a more economical option that still features...

  • Why A Converter Is Important On Certain Trailer Wiring
  • If you run the brake signal on the same wire as the tail lights the brake lights will always illuminate when you turn the Honda's headlights on. You would not have a separate brake signal when you brake. Without the converter you may also cause an overload on the electrical system of the Honda and blow fuses when you tow. I recommend to use the custom fit wiring harness part # 118336 on the 1995 Honda Accord because the Tekonsha converter boxes have been known to last a bit longer then...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring For a 2019 Honda Fit Sport
  • Yes, the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24920 will fit your 2019 Honda Fit with the Sport trim. This receiver is confirmed to fit all trim levels of your Fit. I do recommend installing a T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118767 when you install the receiver. This 4-way flat connector will allow you to power Auxiliary Lights # C53201 with a hitch mounted accessory that impairs the view of your tail lights. It will also power the lights of most small trailers in the event you...

  • Powering Interior Trailer Lights Independently From The Tow Vehicle
  • Interior lights can be wired directly to the battery in your trailer to run independently of the vehicle. You'll just want an in-line fuse/switch like # 37212515 to cut the power when not in use. You can charge the trailer battery with your vehicle's battery by installing a charger like the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger # 331-BCDC1225D. This DC-to-DC battery charger draws power from your vehicle to provide power to an auxiliary battery on your trailer or RV and has a solar option...

  • What Base Plate Kit Do I Need To Use the Roadmaster Blackhawk Tow Bar on a 2011 Honda CR-V
  • I believe you are referring to the Roadmaster Blackhawk 2 All-Terrain Tow Bar part # RM-422 which is compatible with the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit part # RM-521559-4. However, so long as it is a Roadmaster Tow Bar it can be used with this kit. For a flat-tow wiring harness, I recommend the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles part # HM56300 because it's a custom fit so no splicing is required. For a supplemental braking system, I recommend the SMI Stay-IN-Play...

  • 4-Flat Connectors for Flat Towing and Towing a Trailer on a 2014 Honda CR-V

They attach at completely separate wiring harnesses in the rear cargo area of your 2014 Honda CR-V. These parts are compatible with each other. I have attached installation videos for both products so you can confirm.

  • Can Kodiak XL ProLube Kit Work on 7,000 lb. Idler Hubs
  • The Kodiak XL ProLube Kit # XLPROLUBE2440KIT will work with your 7,000 lb. idler hubs as long as your existing hub features a 2.440 hub bore diameter. This kit includes 2 seals that have an inner diameter of 2.25 inches and an outer diameter of 3.376 inches so you will also want to verify that this matches your existing grease seals.

  • Determining if Thule Motion XT XL Cargo Box Can Fit 2012 Honda CR-V and Allow Hatch Clearance
  • I can help you determine if the Thule Motion XT XL part # TH629806 will hit your rear hatch if you open it with the box installed but I can't give you an exact range of motion the box will allow if it were to interfere. You'd have to measure from the front crossbar center back to the rear hatch seat on the roof of the vehicle. If that measurement is 51-1/4 inches or more you'd have zero interference. If it's less than that by just a little bit you'd most likely just have a little bit of...

  • Can I use Inno Aero Crossbars on Thule Towers?
  • I'll start out with the easiest part of your question in saying that footpacks between the two manufacturers are not going to be compatible, so you wouldn't be able to use Inno footpacks with a Thule tower or vice versa. When it comes to the cross bars, the Thule Vortex Aero Bars # TH711520 and Inno Aero Crossbars # INXB123-2 are going to be very close to the same size and they will mount in a similar manner on a foot pack, so you are able to use an Inno Aero Crossbar on a Thule tower...

  • You are able to use the Air Lift Upgrade Kit # AL52300 to upgrade the air lines you attach to the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs # AL98WQ. To connect the air lines you will need to use a short portion of the included nylon lines or locate the correct threaded adapter from a local supply store.

  • Recommended Flat Towing Equipment For A 2014 Honda CR-V
  • The main components needed to flat tow your 2014 Honda CR-V are a tow bar, base plate, tow bar wiring kit, braking system, and safety cables. I have the following recommendations for you below: Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates # e74ZR. This tow bar is specifically designed to fit Roadmaster direct-connect base plates. It features non-binding latches and telescoping, self supporting arms that make connecting and disconnecting your CR-V...

  • 2018 Honda Odyssey Fitment with Rhino-Rack RT-Style Roof Rack Tracks
  • The Rhino-Rack RT-Style Roof Rack Tracks # RRRTV188 will bend to the contour of the roof on your 2018 Honda Odyssey so the roof doesn't have to be completely flat. The only time I see a curved roof being a problem is for something like a VW Beetle with a pretty significant curve. This won't be the same as the OEM roof rail but it should work like what you're wanting. Just be sure you cover and seal any holes made in your roof to help keep water from coming in.

  • How to Carry Bikes Between Motorhome and Towed Vehicle
  • Carrying bikes while using a tow dolly can be a bit tricky since the rear of your towed vehicle will be angled down so instead I recommend using the Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-304 in the rise position and then using the lowest receiver for your tow dolly and the highest receiver for a bike rack like the Thule Range # TH9057 to carry your bikes between the motorhome and tow dolly. Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
