• Above Ground Height of Curt Class III 13328 Trailer Receiver Hitch on 2004 Acura MDX
• I don't have that exact measurement handy, but I was able to figure it out for you. The drop measurement (distance from the underside of the frame member to the top of the receiver tube) is right at 3 inches. This measurement on the Draw-Tite # 75599 is just a little bit less at 2-1/2 inches. This means that the inside top of the Curt # 13328 would sit at about 16-1/2 inches above the ground, versus 17 inches for the Draw-Tite. I've linked you to the install instructions for each hitch.

• Can a Class III Trailer Hitch on 2014 Acura RDX Carry 4 Adult Bikes
• The Class III trailer hitch installed on your 2014 Acura RDX will work well to allow you to carry 4 adult bikes on a hitch mount bike rack. The trailer hitches we offer for your RDX have tongue weight capacities of at least 400 pounds and Class III hitches do not have the same kinds of restrictions as Class I hitches. The Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR you referenced has a weight capacity of 150 pounds, and weighs less than 50 pounds. So overall weight of the rack will be less than...

• What Is Roof Rack Crossbar Spread On 2014 Acura MDX
• Since your 2014 Acura MDX has fixed mounting points, the crossbar spread would be the same for all of the crossbar and roof racks you intend to install. The crossbar spread for your vehicle is 28.5 inches. The roof rack system I recommend for your MDX is the Thule WingBar system. For this system you would need to order 3 numbers. They are part # TH711420 (black) or # TH711400 (siliver), with parts # TH460R and # THKIT3132. I have attached a product review video you can check out.

• Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Acura MDX
• No, it doesn't but there is an etrailer one that does. It is the etrailer Hitch item # e27KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your 2023 Acura MDX with included hardware. It is also a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. I have linked an installation video below. Please note that this hitch, and the rest available for your 2023 MDX, will not allow the use of the fullsized spare tire. It only works with the smaller mini spare. I checked with our vendor. The etrailer Hitch item #...

• Where Does the 4-Way of a 2012 Acura MDX Store When Not in Use
• In most situations it is preferred to have a 4-way connector on a vehicle that stores on the inside of the vehicle as that will protect it from potential damage and from developing corrosion. The wiring harness part # 118424 is designed to store on the inside of your 2012 Acura MDX and then when you need it you would be able to open the rear door and pull the harness out so that you can attach it to your trailer. The only way you would be able to store it outside would be run it out the...

• Compatibility of the Light Kit # 20174 to work with the Pro Series Cargo Carrier # 63153
• The off-set wiring harness that comes with the light kit # 20174 is about 3 feet long and runs straight to a light and other lead wire is about 6-feet and runs along the back edge of the Pro Series cargo carrier # 63153 before it curves up to the 2nd light. The Pro Series cargo carrier # 63153 has a tighter mesh floor which is not large enough for the plug to pass through. Therefore run the wire leads under the platform to the lights, then up the front of the carrier and around to the...

• Trailer Hitch Solution for 2019 Acura RDX with 19 inch Spare Wheel/Tire
• I have a solution for you but none of the hitches we offer for your 2019 Acura RDX with Tech Package can be used with a 19 inch spare stored underneath the vehicle. So what your best option would be is replace the spare you have with a smaller one from Acura so that you can then install the Draw Tite hitch part # 76268. For trailer wiring you'd then want the Tekonsha kit part # 118800 and you'd be set with an easy to install trailer wiring harness setup that's also very reliable.

• Alternatives to Rear Suspension Systems for a 2004 Acura MDX Towing a 1999 Key West Boat Trailer
• I spoke with my contact at Timbren and the Rear Suspension System, part # THROD2, has a weight capacity of 2000 lbs and will work on your 2004 Acura MDX as long as the tongue weight does not exceed the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle or trailer hitch. I assume the 1999 Key West boat trailer you have creates sag on the rear of your vehicle. I would recommend a weight distribution system over a rear suspension enhancement system in this situation. I would recommend the Reese Trunnion...

• Weight Capacity and Comparison of Rhino Roof Racks for a 2011 Acura RDX
• I spoke with my contact for Rhino Rack and he said the weight capacity for all Rhino-Rack roof racks for your 2011 Acura RDX is 110 lbs. I think you were looking at the Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty roof rack with the Heavy-Duty crossbars, # RB1375, the leg kit, # RRRLKHD, and Custom DK Clamps and Pads, # DK177. The Heavy-Duty crossbars will have a higher weight capacity, but once they are installed on a 2011 Acura RDX, the entire roof rack capacity drops to 110 lbs due to the limitations on the...

• Can Thule EasyFold XT Carry 60 lb Bikes on a 2019 Acura RDX with Class I Hitch
• The good news is that the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 can easily carry both of your 60 lb E-Bikes since it has a weight rating of 65 lbs per bike. The bad news is that if 60 lbs what you're left with after taking the battery off then you'll actually be overloading your vehicle weight rating by about 15 lbs. If the 60 lbs you mentioned is with the battery still on each bike then you should be able to remove it which will put you right around the 150 lb mark which I got from your owner's...

• Rhino Rack Roof Rack Clearance For a 2014 Acura MDX To Carry a Thule Motion Rooftop Cargo Box
• Here is the information that I can give you about the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Crossbars # RRVA137B-2, Legs # RRRLKVA and Fit Kit # DK400 for your 2014 Acura MDX. The front crossbar is mounted 3-15/16" on center from the seam where the front door meets the rear door. If you can measure from the center of the door seam back to where your roof meets your rear hatch this measurement plus the 3-15/16" will give you your rear hatch measurement. Your crossbars will be spread 29-17/32" on center. The...

• 2014 Acura RDX Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver Pin Depth
• The Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT89GR for your 2014 Acura RDX uses the standard Draw-Tite hitch pin location of 2-1/2" which will work with any standard bike rack. If you're also in the market for a bike rack then I recommend the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU84FR because it looks great and it's easy to use due to the U-Shaped frame for easy loading/unloading and the foot lever to activate the tilt/fold feature.

• Weight of Surco RV Bunk Ladder SP506B
• The shipping weight of the Surco RV Bunk Ladder # SP506B is 7-lbs, so once you deduct the weight of the carton and packing materials you are looking at an actual net weight of about 5-1/2-lbs for the ladder itself. This light weight is a result of the ladder's aluminum construction which also provides freedom from any risk or corrosion.

• Best 12-Inch Trailer Tires for Pop-Up Camper Trailer
• The overall diameter of a mounted and inflated tire in size 5.30-12 such as # AM30780 will be 21.9-inches. The tire size 145/80-12 such as # AM31202 is just slightly smaller in overall diameter at 21.3-inches. In each of these tire sizes we offer several weight load ranges; I linked a page for all tire and wheel/tire products for each of the two sizes you referenced. Ideally you will select tires with a Load Range that provides some safety margin based on the trailer's GVWR. Trailer tires...

• Will the Yakima HangOut fit 2015 Acura MDX
• The Yakima HangOut # Y02638 is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Acura MDX. As for the straps, you are going to want to use all six with the Yakima HangOut # Y02638 to get the most secure fit on your Acura. The Yakima FullBack # Y02633, as you mentioned, only uses four straps, and there are a few other differences. The HangOut is going to require the use of Yakima Same Key System Core # Y07202, and added security measures such as the Security Strap # Y02623 (which secures the rack to your...

• Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Acura MDX
• Yes, we do. To add a hitch to your 2023 Acura MDX, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C22HR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Acura with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube installs behind your rear bumper cover. This leaves only the 2" receiver visible. The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C22HR is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 6,000 lbs towing capacity and a 900 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below....

• Dimensions of the Wesbarg Coiled 7-Ways
• I went and pulled the WesBarg 7-Way # WG54006-046 and the # WG54006-043 from our warehouse to grab the measurements you requested. The coil diameter on both is 2-1/2 inches. For the 6 foot version part # WG54006-043 the length of just the coils is 8-1/2 inches and if measured from end to end with the coils unstretched it measures 27 inches. For the 12 foot long version the coiled portion is 19 inches long and from end to end measures 3 feet unstretched.
