Here on this 2016 Honda Odyssey, we'll be having a look at and installing the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Class III trailer hitch receiver, part number 76025. All right, here's what our hitch inaudible 00:00:11 like installed. As you can see, unlike a lot of the other Honda Odyssey hitches on the market, ours is completely hidden underneath the fascia. The only part that's exposed is the actual Class III two inch receiver itself and our safety chain loops that are welded on below the receiver. These safety chain loops are easy to use and easy to access for all sizes of safety chains. Around the side of our receiver, you'll find two pin holes here. The one closest to the front of the vehicle is your industry standard 5/8 of an inch diameter hitch pin hole. The one here towards the back is a J-pin stabilization device hole. What J-pin stabilization devices are, this is an accessory that is used to take some of that annoying shake, play, and rattle out of what is inserted in your receiver. We have several options of those available on our website if you'd like to purchase one. This hitch features a 3,500 pound max gross trailer weight rating and a 525 pound max gross tongue weight rating. You want to consult with the owner's manual of your Odyssey and not exceed the limits of the hitch or the vehicle itself and cause damage to either one. Now, another neat feature about this hitch is not only does it sit up higher than the other Odyssey hitches, giving us more ground clearance so we don't have to worry about scraping when we're pulling into a steep driveway or going over speed bumps or something of that nature, but also our hitch pin hole here sits back a little bit further, making it easier for us to use certain ball mounts or other hitch-mounted accessories. Now, because this hitch sits up higher and is hidden behind or fascia, this gives us a better option than other Odyssey hitches on the market because we have the increased ground clearance, which some people have complained about in the past, of scraping the bottom of the receiver, and a lot of people didn't like the look of it, the main body hanging underneath the fascia of the car being visible. This is a more factory look, it looks very nice on the back of your vehicle, it's all hidden and doesn't take away from the looks of the vehicle itself. Now for a few measurements to better assist you in choosing any hitch-mounted accessory you may need, such as a ball mount, bike rack, or cargo carrier. We're looking about six inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the rearmost part of the back bumper and about 13 inches from the ground to the top of the two inch receiver opening. Now that we've gone over some features, we'll show you how to get the hitch installed on your Honda Odyssey. Now on each side of our vehicle, we'll have a mudflap behind the back tires. We'll need to begin our installation by removing these mudflaps. We look on the other side, we'll find fasteners that hold them in place. Okay, we'll start by removing the three Philips screws that we have on our mudflap. You'll need a right angle screwdriver bit in order to get these out. Next we've found a 10 millimeter screw that we need to remove with a ratcheting wrench. Now the only difference on the passenger side is there's one less Philips screw to remove and once you have all the screws removed, you have to pull it off the fascia a little bit because there's a tab that holds it in place. Now we need to remove our driver's side appearance panel right here. We'll find three plastic pushpin fasteners that hold it in place as well as a 10 millimeter bolt up in this recessed area right here. The way these work, you can pop out the center section with a flathead screwdriver or trim panel tool, then you can grab the whole thing and pull it on down. Now we'll grab the panel, pull it out, and set it aside. Now we need to remove the two plastic fasteners on the bottom of our fascia. Those fasteners work the exact same way as the other fasteners that we removed earlier. Now at the top edge of our fascia, where it meets the rear body of the vehicle, we'll find a Philips screw on each side. We'll remove these. Okay, with our hatch open on each corner of our fascia, below our taillight area, we'll find two five millimeter fasteners that we need to remove. These are alan key fasteners. Okay, now we can remove our fascia with an extra set of hands. Grab the corner of it here
