  • Installing a Draw-Tite Hitch on a 2021 Mazda CX-9
  • The Draw-Tite # 76020 does have a tech tip of needing to modify the heat shield as it does fit a few years of the Mazda CX-9. Some of the 2018 models did need this shield modified slightly to fit properly, but it looks like that may have been limited to that year. I have an install video we did on a 2020 CX-9 and there was no modification needed. As we have not had a 2021 to do an install on as of yet, I can't 100% confirm the need to modify the heat shield, but odds are you will not need...

  • Is There a Class II Hitch with 2 Receiver Available for the 2020 Mazda CX-9
  • I have a solution for you, but there is not a Class II hitch with a 2" receiver available for the 2020 Mazda CX-9. Instead, you can use a Class III hitch like the Draw-Tite # 76020 which has a 2" hitch receiver like you're seeking and also has a hidden cross-tube like the EcoHitch so it's going to keep the clean factory look on your CX-9. If you're going to be towing with your CX-9, you'll also need a wiring harness, ball mount and hitch ball. For the wiring harness I recommend using the...

  • Will the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit a 2011 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring with a Factory Hitch
  • I spoke with my contact at Hidden Hitch, and he said that the factory OEM hitch has to be removed for the Draw-Tite, part # 75531, to be installed on your 2011 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring. He did not think that the factory hitch is welded on, but he was not sure. I would recommend to look under the rear of your vehicle to see if the hitch is bolted on or welded on.

  • How to Determine if Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Will Fit with Moon Roof on a 2019 Mazda CX-9
  • I spoke with my contact at Rhino-Rack who said that they don't have any notes about there being any issues between the part # RRRVP51 and the moon roof on a 2019 Mazda CX-9 but she did say that you need to be careful not to overtighten the hardware. Since they couldn't give me an exact measurement for the roof rack so that you can compare I went out to the warehouse and found the feet of this system to measure about 1-1/2" high. The fit kit will add about 1" more of height. I recommend...

  • What is Required to Use Curt Echo Trailer Brake Controller
  • To use the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 your vehicle only needs 12 volt, ground, and turn signals connected to its 7-way socket. What this means is you do not need the brake signal from the 7-way. For example, if you used a 4-to-7 way adapter such as # 30717, there will not be an output wire from the Echo to connect to, so you could simply tie that wire off, as you can see by the accompanying diagram. Apart from that the only other thing required is that your...

  • Class III Hitch Pictures for a 2021 Mazda CX-9
  • We do have pictures of a class III hitch installed on a 2021 Mazda CX-9 and I have attached a couple of them. I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 76020 you were looking at. It is the most concealed hitch option we have for your Mazda.

  • I do have an option for you but the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package part # 118278 is not a confirmed fit for your 2014 Mazda CX-9.

The wiring harness that you originally asked about is only a confirmed fit for a Mazda CX-9 from 2016-2018 and will not work on your 2014. I have also attached an...

  • The Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6358B does fit your 2017 Mazda CX-9 with a factory roof rack and would fit above the shark fin antenna. I found videos and picutures online that I can't share here due to copyrights that showed this box fitting above the antenna.

  • For your Starcraft 2401L popup the SportRack Pop Up Roof Rack # SR1020 would be a really great option that would fit well and would allow you to carry canoes, paddleboards, and bikes like you mentioned. The length of the bars are adjustable at lengths of 80 inches, 83 inches, and 86 inches.
