Hitch Installation Hardware Kit for Curt Class II Hitch C12031 for 1999 thru 2017 Honda Odyssey

Question

Question:

Hello: I removed my 2inch Etrailer Hitch from my 2011 Honda Odyssey, as I purchased a new 2017 Odyssey. I think it will fit the 2017, not sure. Also I need the Stud and tricky mounting wire that went on the drivers side of the hitch, as I could not retrive it when I removed my Hitch from the 2011 Honda. Can you confirm it will work and what mounting hardware do I need? I have the other four bolts and nut from the 2011 installation, but missing the bolt that went into the frame on the drivers side

I found your order from back in 2014 for the Curt Class II hitch # C12031 and I am pleased to tell you it will fit just fine on your new 2017 Odyssey.

You will need a new hardware kit since hitch installation hardware is intended for a single use only. We offer part # RHK. All you need to do is enter that part in our search field and press enter. Then once on the page simply enter the hitch part number (C12031) and select the brand Curt from the menu tool provided.

We will put together a complete installation hardware kit for you which will include the bolt lead wire.
Instructions for the hitch and a video showing a 2016 Odyssey are linked to aid your installation. The tools required are listed in the instructions.

The ideal height will actually have to do with how tall the coupler of the trailer is from the ground. The Draw-Tite #76020 will sit at 13 1/2 inches from the ground to the top of the hitch when installed on a 2016 Mazda CX-9. From what I could find…

Answer 5

Class I and Class II hitches both have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. The difference is that a Class I hitch has a lower tongue weight rating, usually 200 pounds and a lower towing rating, usually 2,000 pounds. A Class II hitch usually has a tongue…

Hello Steve. I do have a good solution for you, but I cannot recommend using the Malone Adapter #MPG544. Since it is rated for towing only 4,000 lbs, your 8,000 lb towed vehicle would be double the max towing capacity. You are right about there being…

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

As long as the flat tow wiring is wired in before the 4-Way #C93ZV and you connect the power for the converter directly to the battery it will work. I have seen several use Magnetic Lights #TL21RK which they will wire in on the main harness to have…
