Trailer Wiring and Hitch Recommendation for 2006 Honda Pilot

Question:

I need to get a trailer hitch for my 2006 Honda Pilot. Along with wiring and ball mount. Can you make recommendations. Pulling a 15foot Boat relatively small.

For your 2006 Honda Pilot our most popular and best hitch is the Draw Tite hitch part # 75599 which is a confirmed fit and would work well. I attached an install video for this as well. For trailer wiring you then would want the Tekonsha part # 118336 which I attached an install video for as well.

Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
