Is a Lift Required to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 2015 Honda Odyssey

Question:

I am interested in getting a Class III Draw-Tite for a soon to be purchased 2015 Honda Odyssey. Although the self installation instructions and videos make it look pretty straight forward, Im wondering what you recommend for those of us who dont have access to a lift for their vehicle. Im in the city park my car on the street, so cant even claim Ive access to my own garage or even a driveway. Im wondering if I found a quiet parking lot or similar place where I could back up to a curb if that might give me enough work space. But what suggestions do you have?

The Draw-Tite part # 75270 would install pretty easily on your 2015 Honda Odyssey. Using a lift like what we show in our install videos would not be necessary. We use lifts to make filming the install easier.

Your idea of backing over a curb to give you more clearance is a great idea. Be sure to set the emergency brake and chock the front tires though for added safety.

I attached the install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
