2004 Honda Odyssey Towing Capacity and Trailer Hitch Recommendation  

Instead of replacing both the 7-Way blade-style connector as well as the 6-Pole square connectors, #37995, I recommend using a 7-Way connector and junction box to make the connections for your trailer. This will eliminate the additional,…

Hollywood Racks doesn't recommend opening the rear hatch or trunk of a vehicle once a rack has been installed for many reasons. First and foremost, it's an unsafe practice. The struts that hold up the liftgate on a minivan are only rated for…

Since the load you will be towing is nearing the top of your 2003 Honda Odyssey's towing capacity, I recommend using the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit #D13503. This cooler measures 11 inches wide x 8-3/4 inches tall x 7/8…

Brake systems are not dependent on the hub bolt pattern. So you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit #AKEBRK-7-SA for 12 inch hub/drums or #AKEBRK-35-SA for 10 inch hub/drums. Then use #10-1-1 wire sold by the foot for your brake magnet wiring.…

Seal 171255UC has an inner diameter of 1.719 inches and outer diameter of 2.565 inches. A seal that has those dimensions would actually be #58846. I've added a link to a video review of this seal for you to take a look at.
