All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Honda Pilot and Acura MDX (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 6,000 lbs. GTW and 900 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 8,000 lbs. WD and 900 lbs. WDTW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
CURT custom wiring connectors are the easiest way to outfit your vehicle with a CURT trailer wiring connection. They are built with some of the most advanced technology in the industry, and each one is custom-fitted to work with a specific make and model. Some automotive manufacturers install a special socket on the vehicle to be used for vehicle-to-trailer wiring. Although this special socket is not equipped on every vehicle, a CURT custom wiring connector -- also called a T-connector -- utilizes the socket for simple, stress-free installation. Rather than requiring you to cut, splice and solder into your vehicle's wiring system, the custom wiring connector uses a single OEM-compatible plug and instantly provides a standard, universal vehicle-to-trailer wiring connection, typically in the form a 4-way flat. All CURT custom wiring connectors are made vehicle-specific for the easiest possible installation and the best fit. This particular plug-in connector provides a 4-way flat socket and is designed to be a custom wiring option for certain years of the Acura MDX (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary hardware to establish a solid connection. It also comes with a dust cover to keep the connector socket clean when not in use. To ensure long-lasting reliability, all CURT custom wiring connectors are thoroughly tested for optimal functionality. Stress is the last thing you should feel when towing a trailer -- whether you're hauling your RV to that favorite camping destination, your ATVs up to the hunting grounds or your fishing boat to the new hidden hotspot. At CURT, we think your towing equipment should add to the enjoyment of your experience, not detract from it.

The 14 - 20 Acura MDX Curt 2", Class 3 Trailer Tow Hitch + 4-flat Wiring Kit 13146 (Part #CHW-8) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The CURT 13146 has a gross trailer weight (GTW) capacity of 6,000 lbs and a tongue weight (TW) capacity of 900 lbs. For weight distribution towing, the weight distribution (WD) capacity is 8,000 lbs with a WD tongue weight (WDTW) of 900 lbs. Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
No. The CURT 13146 installation requires no drilling. The hitch mounts to existing weldnuts on the vehicle frame.
You will need: a ratchet, a torque wrench, a 22mm socket, a 6" socket extension, and a wire pipe brush. The wire brush is used to clean debris from the weldnuts in the frame. A tools reference guide is available at curtmfg.com/trailer-hitch-installation.
The kit includes 6 hex bolts (M14-1.50 x 40mm, CL 10.9) and 6 conical-toothed washers (9/16"). These fasteners mount the hitch to the vehicle frame weldnuts.
Yes. Step 1 of the installation requires you to lower the spare tire from inside the vehicle using the tools stored in the storage compartment. After the hitch is secured, you will raise the spare tire back into place following the same instructions.
Yes. Weldnut cleaning may be required. To remove debris from the weldnuts in the frame, spray lubricant or compressed air into the hole. For heavy debris, use a wire brush. Take care not to damage the threads. The manual notes this step in the assembly diagram and Step 2 of the installation.
All M14 bolts must be torqued to 139 lb-ft. Use a torque wrench to ensure proper tightening during installation.
The conical-toothed washers should be placed with the toothed side facing the hitch side plate. The assembly diagram on page 2 shows the correct orientation: the hex bolt passes through the washer, and the washer sits between the bolt head and the hitch side plate.
Safety glasses should be worn at all times while installing this product. Additionally, never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity when using the hitch.
Periodic inspection of the trailer hitch should be performed to ensure all mounting hardware remains tight and structural components are secure. This helps prevent damage to the product and vehicle.

Yes, the Curt 56192 is designed for the Acura MDX. It is categorized for SUVs, Mini & Full-Sized Vans and connects via the vehicle's electrical junction box located behind the driver-side rear access panel.
The harness has two circuit ratings: Signal Circuits are rated at 3.0 amps per side, and Tail/Running Circuits are rated at 6.0 amps total. The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Do not exceed the product rating or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
You need a flat blade screwdriver. The manual also mentions drilling a 3/32" pilot hole may be required if a suitable existing screw with nut is not available for the grounding point.
The harness includes a 10-amp low profile fuse and a 7.5-amp low profile fuse for the electrical junction box. Install the 10-amp fuse in position 2 and the 7.5-amp fuse in position 11 of the junction box. Additionally, a 10-amp fuse is provided separately for the red fuse holder on the product wiring harness itself.
The electrical junction box is located behind the driver-side rear access panel. To access it, open the hatch, lift up the storage lid, and remove the access panel on the driver-side rear trim panel.
Route the white housing end of the harness from the cargo area on the driver's side under the trim panel up to the junction box. Insert the white housing connector into the receptacle in the electrical junction box. Then install the 10-amp fuse in position 2 and the 7.5-amp fuse in position 11 of the junction box.
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle and adhere the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape. The location should be convenient and out of the way.
When in use, route the 4-flat connector to the center of the vehicle. When not in use, roll it up and store in a convenient, out-of-the-way location. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
Drilling may be required for the grounding point. The manual instructs you to locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. If no existing screw is available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. The area should be free of rust, dirt and paint. Secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and the provided screw. If no existing screw is available, drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a 10-amp maximum fuse. Exceeding this rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire. Do not exceed the product rating or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower.
Test for proper function by using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer. All installation steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness functions properly.
Reinstall all items removed during installation. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion. Test for proper function using a test light or by connecting a properly wired trailer.
