Replacement Fish Wire for Installation of Curt Hitch on 2023 Honda CR-V
Question:
I have C13397 hitch on my car that I need to remove and reinstall on a new car. I do not have the Fish Wire anymore. Can you tell me which fish wire I will need? For 5/8-Inch Diameter Bolts or for 1/2-Inch Diameter Bolts? Thank you

Expert Reply:
The Curt # C13397 uses four 7/16" grade 8 carriage bolts for installation. The fish wire that comes with the installation hardware is the # C58410. You only need one 1/2" grade 8 carriage bolt for the tow loop plate which won't require fish wire. If you aren't able to get the spacers out to use for installation on your 2023 Honda CR-V, you will need to get the full replacement hardware kit # RHK.
I attached an installation video below, along with the written instructions for your reference.
