Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I ordered this hitch after confirming with the manufacturer that this was made to fit a 2006 Honda Odyssey without drilling. It does not fit without modification to the hitch.
The holes in the hitch were not set wide enough to fit the pre-drilled and threaded holes in the van's frame. Another 1/2" was needed from one side of the hitch to the other.
I ended up cutting the holes on one side of the hitch into slots out to the edge of the hitch, and then used another steel plate to reinforce the slots. Once installed (about 1.5 hours of labor which should have been about 20 minutes) the hitch does what it is supposed to do... it's a receiver for a hitch drawbar... no great accomplishment.
I was disappointed in the condition that the hitch was received... the paint was scratched and chipped severely. It was shipped UPS without any packaging, so of course it was banged around. I sanded the spots to bare metal, re-primed and then painted the whole thing again. I don't like a rusty hitch under a relatively new vehicle.
