  • Why Does Trailer Hitch for 2016 Acura RDX Have Higher Towing Capacity than Vehicle
  • With any towing setup your overall towing capacity is only as strong as your weakest component. So if you were to install a hitch on your 2016 Acura RDX that has a higher towing capacity than the vehicle like with the Draw Tite # 75784 you would be still limited by the vehicle since a towing setup is only as strong as it's weakest component. They design hitches for vehicles and then try to make them as strong as possible and rate them independently of the vehicle which is why they capacity...

  • Does Installing a Hitch on a 2015 Acura RDX Automatically Void Vehicle Warranty

  • Hitch Extenders and Hitch Expanders for Class I Hitch
  • Yes, we do have Class I hitch expanders that are like the Class II part # 80303 that you referenced. This item # 80303 fits a Class II 1-1/4-inch hitch and converts the opening to a 2-inch size while also providing 6-inches of extension.

They also offer a straight expander/extender...

  • Tips for Finding Installer for Draw Tite Hitch for 2019 Acura RDX
  • Any local mechanic to you with a solid reputation would have no problem installing the Draw Tite hitch part # 76238 that you referenced for your 2019 Acura RDX. Hitch installs are relatively easy for them as they deal with much harder jobs on a daily basis. I'd just find a local shop that you know has a great reputation and let them install it.

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch With 1-1/4 Inch Receiver for 2022 Acura RDX Carrying Kuat Sherpa 2.0
  • As of right now (December 2021) the 2022 Acura RDX only has Class III hitches with a 2" receiver available. That does not mean there won't be a hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver, but for now none are confirmed to fit. There are, however, some steps you could take to minimize any play with a 2" receiver, which would also mean you get the advantages of a Class III hitch. If you get a hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C95CR you will have more options for other accessories should you...

This is a 2-piece (front or rear) kit that includes fasteners and that is intended for larger vehicles. The flaps themselves measure 11-3/4- wide x 17-5/8-inches long.
