I took a look at the install instructions for the Reese Trailer Hitch Receiver 51156 which is comparable to our Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75270 and they both call for six M12 x 1.25" x 35mm bolts to be used along with six 1/2" conical tooth washers. If you need to obtain these bolts and washer you can do so with the Replacement Hardware Kit for Trailer Hitches part # RHK. If you do go with this kit you will just need to enter Draw-Tite" in the manufacturer box and "75270" in the hitch item number box.

Please note if you will be towing with your Odyssey you will need a few other items like a trailer wiring harness, the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118521 which is plug and play and a ball mount kit, the etrailer.com Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches part # 989900 which should have everything that you need.
