Ball Mount Recommendation for Class I Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch on a 2005 Honda Accord Coupe
Question:
Hi, I have a 2005 Honda Accord EX Coupe... I installed a Draw-Tite Sports Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver Class I 1-1/4inch Item # 24787. Will the Curt Class II Drawbar Item # C45014 work with my receiver? I read through the QandA, and there seems to be conflicting responses... Also, can you please confirm that it is long enough to clear the bumper please? Thank you so much.

Expert Reply:
Take a look at the picture I have included. If the receiver on the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24787 on your 2005 Honda Accord has that tab behind the hitch pin hole then the Class II ball mount # C45014 will not fit. But you can use # C45025 which has the same rise and is Class I compatible.
Clearing the rear bumper should not be an issue. Ball mount # C45025 measures 11-1/4 inches long from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball hole. For a compatible 1-7/8 inch ball you can use # C40001 or for a 2 inch use # C40018.
