The 76" long x 32" wide x 14" tall dimensions that you referenced are the overall dimensions of the Rhino-Rack Zenith MasterFit Rooftop Cargo Box # RRRMFZ66.
When it comes to the slides for the mounting hardware on the Zenith MasterFit the overall dimensions are 16-1/2" x 43-1/2". The lower part of the box that will sit about level with your crossbars is 70" long and then it narrows from 29-1/2" to 27" as far as width goes. I've added some photos to help demonstrate this. view full answer...
The distance from the center of the frame hook to the ceneter of the clamp where the mast would insert is 9" for both the Replacement Precision Slide Frame Hook - Long part # HRSPRFHC-LW and the Replacement Precision Slide Frame Hook - Short part # HRSPRFHC-SW.
Please note, the older Hollywood Racks Sport Rider used a round upright mast which the above are designed for whereas the new Hollywood Racks Sport Rider uses a square upright mast. view full answer...

The per bike capacity for the Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # TH934XTR is 35lbs per bike, for a total of 140 lbs.
As long as you are under 140lbs total capacity you should be good to go. I have attached a road test video for you to check out as well. view full answer...
I called my contact at Curt and asked about the torque needed for the ball that the sway control is attached to on the trailer hitch.
They told me that there has never been a torque listed but if you would torque it to about 150 ft-lbs it will have no problems. There is no torque value in the installation instructions.
The Reese kit part # 83660 requires 100 ft lbs of torque for the install of the ball. view full answer...
To add a hitch to your 2021 Mazda CX-5, I recommend the etrailer Hitch item # e98902. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Mazda with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver so it will be great for accessories like your cargo carrier and have plenty of capacity for pulling a uhaul trailer.
I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper cover completely concealing it. This leaves only the 2" receiver visible which not only helps... view full answer...
The etrailer trailer hitch mount cargo carrier # e98874 has a shipping weight of 61 pounds. and a carrier weight of 48 pounds. Carrier # C18151 has a shipping weight of 58 pounds so it is around 55 pounds for the carrier.
Someone would have to come along with a couple of wrenches to steel the trailer portion because it swivels up or down on a bolt. But then they would just have this heavy tray to lug around and wouldn't be able to use it in a vehicle because the tray was removed from its shank. view full answer...

I talked to Hollywood Racks and the Replacement Precision Slide Frame Hook, Item # HRSPRFHC-L, has a diameter at the opening of 1.32 inches or 33.5mm. It replaces pretty much every long, precision slide frame hook made by Hollywood Racks. It will not fit any other racks because Hollywood Racks have a pretty unique design.

Thank you for the picture!
From the picture that you sent it in simply looks like that bracket got bent during shipping. Your friend should be able to bend it back so that it fits their vehicle. I can guarantee that if you put the trailer hitch up like you are going to install it on their vehicle you will see that the bent bracket will cause the trailer hitch not to fit.

The ratings that a manufacturer puts on a hitch are the capacities that they have tested the receiver to be able to withstand. The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76138 that fits your 2021 Mazda CX-5 has a rating of 675lbs of tongue weight and 4,500lbs of trailer towing capacity. This is what Draw-Tite says is the absolute most the receiver can handle without damage to the receiver.

The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76138 is a great choice for your 2016 Mazda CX-5. When we had the opportunity to install this hitch on a similar 2016 CX-5, we found that the clearance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the furthest part of the bumper measures about 3 inches.
If you have the newer Kuat Sherpa 2.0, such as # SH22G, the hitch and rack will work well together. This rack will sit 9 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole when folded up, so the clearance... view full answer...
When the Kuat Transfer bike rack part # KU74FR is installed in a hitch it adds a total of 17 inches from the center of the hitch pin out to the furthest point out of the rack when folded up. So you'd need to measure the available space you have behind your vehicle from the hitch pin and if you have more than 17 inches this rack will fit folded up in your garage. view full answer...
Per Thule, the wire cord is 6 inches coming off the Thule License Plate Holder for Bike Racks - Lighted # TH35JV.
Then the wiring harness that plugs into the # TH35JV is 60 inches long, so you'll get a total length of 5-1/2 feet. view full answer...
I will be happy to help clear up the confusion. To add a 7-way connector to your 2014 Mazda CX-5 you will need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller item # ETBC7 you were looking at. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily at the rear of your Mazda with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector and plugs directly into it.
