Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Honda Pilot - Draw-Tite- Video
Today in our 2017 Honda Pilot, we'll be having a look at and installing the Draw-Tite Class 3 Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number 75225. Here's what our hitch looks like installed. The first thing that we'll notice about our hitch is that the main frame of the hitch itself is completely hidden behind a rear fascia. Th only parts that we will see hanging down is the actual class 3 2-inc receiver itself with our safety chain loops on the side of the receiver. Now on our safety chain loops, they're a unique design where they're on a plate that's welded to the side of the receiver which has a large opening right here, and they actually hang down a little bit below the receiver, which isn't a big deal. A lot of factory hitches on a lot of higher-end vehicles actually have a design like this because they give you optimal room for inserting pins and locking devices into your hitch to secure whatever hitch-mounted accessory you have. Now off to the left-side of our hitch, towards the driver's side, you'll notice that they have a bracket that's welded onto the frame of the hitch. What this bracket allows us to do is to mount any electrical connections that we have to hook-up to our trailer's wiring systems, either a 4-full 00:01:17 flat, 7-way RV or whatever other style of electrical connector you have, you can mount it right back here. Now on the side of our receiver, you'll notice that we have two pinholes. more

The only part hanging down is the part we'll be using, the actual Class 3 2" receiver itself with our safety chain loops. one great feature about this hitch that we have is we have ample clearance around our fascia with the receiver, making this hitch ideal to use with any hitch-mounted accessory, especially bike racks and cargo carriers. Our safety chain loops are a rolled steel design, which are welded onto the bottom of the receiver. They are a fairly large opening and we shouldn't have much, if any, problems using most safety chain hooks on them. more
