Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2008 Honda CR-V that Doesnt Require Stabilizer Strap w Bike Rack
Question:
I am looking for a Class III trailer hitch for my 2008 CR-V. Will I need support straps when using the Curt trailer hitch together with a bike rack or would the Draw-Tite be a better option?

Expert Reply:
Draw Tite does not require you to use stabilizer straps with their hitches when you are carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack so fo ryour 2008 Honda CR-V the hitch you would want is the Draw Tite part # 75547 which is a confirmed fit.
If you were looking for a 4 bike platform rack the Hollywood Racks part # HR1400Z would be a great option.
