Parts Needed For Hauling a TAB 320 Trailer With a 2016 Acura RDX  

Question:

I would like to install a class 3 trailer hitch on my 2016 Acura RDX. I would also like to purchase a 7 pin wiring harness that would support lights and trailer brakes on a TAB 320 trailer. Please advise the part numbers I would need to order.

First I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75784 for your 2016 Acura RDX. This class III receiver is rated for up to 400lbs of tongue weight and a towing capacity up to 4,000lbs. Be sure to verify maximum towing capacity with your Acura dealer. The receiver has a mounting tab for the 7-way connector so you will not need to drill holes in your fascia.

The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118569 is needed to control the lighting for the trailer. This will connect directly to the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. The kit gives you the additional wiring needed for connecting a Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR inside your Acura.

The Curt Ball Mount # D-28 is the ball mount I recommend. This ball mount is longer than most at 14-1/4" long but will provide adequate clearance from your bumper as it is being used in the rise position. You will need a 2" Hitch Ball # 63845 for the TAB 320 coupler. And I recommend the Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock and Coupler Lock Set # 3794DAT to secure the trailer to your Acura when towing or while in storage.
