Should Loctite Be Used to Install a Curt Hitch on a 2014 Honda Odyssey
Question:
The video doesnt mention it, but I think it would be a good idea to add loctite to the bolts. Is there a reason you dont use it? Would it harm anything if I did use it?

There's no reason you couldn't use Loctite like part # LT37420 when installing the Curt hitch part # C13068 but as long as you torque the install hardware down to the proper torque figures in the instructions you wouldn't have any problems with the bolts loosening.
I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
