DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch
Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

Yes, part number 75690 is designed for Honda CR-V. The hitch is a weight-carrying ball mount type with a maximum gross trailer weight rating of 3,500 lb (1,589 kg) and maximum tongue weight of 350 lb (159 kg). Do not exceed the lower of your vehicle manufacturer's towing rating or these hitch specifications.
No. The manual explicitly states 'Do Not Use With Spring Bars'. This hitch is a weight-carrying ball mount and is not compatible with weight-distributing spring bar systems.
The maximum gross trailer weight is 3,500 lb (1,589 kg) and the maximum tongue weight is 350 lb (159 kg). However, you must not exceed the lower of your vehicle manufacturer's towing rating or these hitch specifications.
Fastener kit 75690F includes: 1 U-bolt 3/8-16, 2 flat washers 3/8", 2 lock washers 3/8", 2 hex nuts 3/8-16, 4 carriage bolts ½-13 x 1.25 GR5, 4 spacer blocks ¼ x 1 x 3, 4 conical toothed washers ½", and 4 hex nuts ½-13. A pull wire is also provided for the fishwiring procedure.
You will need a torque wrench, 11/16" wrench, and 7/8" wrench. No drill bits are required. The manual provides a pull wire for the fishwiring procedure.
No drilling is required. However, you may need to enlarge existing forward access holes on each side of the vehicle to allow fishwiring of the carriage bolt and spacer block, as described in step 2 of the installation instructions.
Yes. Step 1 requires lowering the exhaust by disconnecting three rubber exhaust hangers: two at the rear of the muffler and one forward of the muffler near the rear axle. Bend the exhaust hanger pins to lower the exhaust ½". The manual recommends removing the rubber exhaust hanger from the muffler end rather than from the hanger rod, because the hitch side bracket will block access to the hanger rod after installation. The exhaust must be raised back and the hangers reattached after the hitch is installed.
Fishwiring is the process of routing the carriage bolts and spacer blocks through the vehicle frame access holes using the provided pull wire. Step 3 requires fishwiring the ½-13 carriage bolt and spacer block through the access holes and down through the rearward hole on both sides. Step 4 requires fishwiring the ½-13 carriage bolt and spacer block through the access hole and back down through the same hole. Figure 2 shows kinking the pull wire to keep the block independent of the bolt. Figure 3 illustrates the three-step process: insert bolt and block into frame, align block on access hole, and pull bolt through block.
1. Lower the exhaust by disconnecting three rubber hangers and bending the hanger pins to lower exhaust ½". 2. Enlarge forward access holes if necessary. 3. Fishwire ½-13 carriage bolt and spacer block through access holes and down through rearward hole, both sides. 4. Fishwire ½-13 carriage bolt and spacer block through access hole and back down through same hole. 5. Raise hitch into position carefully without pushing fasteners back into frame; loosely install conical toothed washers and nuts. 6. Center hitch on vehicle and install U-bolt with flat washers, lock washers and nuts. 7. Tighten all fasteners to torque specifications. 8. Raise exhaust back into position and reattach rubber exhaust hangers at three places.
Tighten all 3/8-16 GR5 fasteners with a torque wrench to 30 lb.-ft. (41 N·m).
Tighten all ½-13 GR5 fasteners with a torque wrench to 75 lb.-ft. (102 N·m).
Observe safety precautions when working beneath the vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes. A hitch or ball that has been damaged should be removed and replaced.
Check the hitch frequently, making sure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual emphasizes this is an ongoing maintenance requirement, not just a one-time check after installation.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but emphasizes regular inspection as part of ongoing maintenance.
In step 5, after raising the hitch into position, loosely install the conical toothed washers and nuts. All fasteners are then tightened to their final torque specifications in step 7, after the hitch is centered on the vehicle and the U-bolt is installed.
After raising the hitch into position and loosely installing the conical toothed washers and nuts, center the hitch on the vehicle before installing the U-bolt. The manual does not provide specific measurement guidance for centering, but indicates this is done visually before the U-bolt is installed in step 6.
