So, whether you are headed out to the campground and need a place for the cooler, taking the bikes to hit the trails in the park, or you are tackling a DIY project (maybe some landscaping or a home repair), choose DRAW-TITE and travel with confidence knowing your setup is connected with the security only DRAW-TITE can provide. 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.

The 2013-2015 Honda Crosstour Draw-tite Class 1 Trailer Hitch, 1-1/4 Inch Square Receiver Bundle w/ Plug-n-Play T-One Wiring Harness (Part #DTB24852-118642) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, the 24852 hitch fits all Honda Accord Crosstour models including EX-2WD, EXL-2WD, and EXL-AWD. The installation uses existing weldnuts in the vehicle frame and does not require modifications specific to drivetrain or trim level.
The maximum gross trailer weight is 2000 lb (908 kg) and the maximum tongue weight is 200 lb (91 kg). However, you must not exceed the lower of the towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or the hitch rating.
You will need wrenches in 10mm, 13mm, and 17mm sizes, a torque wrench, spray lubricant, and metal shears. A torque wrench is essential because fasteners must be tightened to specific torque values: 8mm-1.25 bolts to 25 Lb.-Ft. (34 N·M) and 10mm-1.25 bolts to 42 Lb.-Ft. (57 N·M).
The hitch includes: 2× M8-1.25 × 55mm Grade 9.8 bolts with washers, 4× M10-1.25 × 40mm Grade 8.8 hex bolts, 2× M10-1.25 hex nuts, 4× conical toothed washers (7/16"), and 2× flat washers (3/8"). These are supplied in fastener kit 24852F. The installation also reuses existing 8mm bolts from the vehicle frame.
You do not need to remove the exhaust system completely, but you must lower the mufflers and exhaust hangers to access and trim the muffler heat shields. Drop the mufflers by removing rubber isolator hangers from metal pegs on both sides, and also drop the rubber exhaust hangers located further forward near the rear axle. Spray lubricant on the rubber isolators to help them slide off more easily.
No drilling is required. The hitch uses existing weldnuts in the vehicle frame and existing holes in the frame end panels. However, you must trim the muffler heat shields by cutting out a corner section of approximately 4-1/4" × 4-1/4" from both the driver's side and passenger's side shields using metal shears.
Using metal shears, cut out a corner section of approximately 4-1/4" × 4-1/4" from both the driver's side and passenger's side heat shields. The heat shields must be trimmed and reinstalled before the hitch is installed. Save the bolts that attach the heat shields so you can reinstall them after trimming.
1. Lower mufflers and exhaust hangers by removing rubber isolators from metal pegs. 2. Remove existing 8mm bolts from frame end panels (return to owner). 3. Remove plastic push rivets from bumper cover if needed for access. 4. Remove and trim muffler heat shields (cut 4-1/4" × 4-1/4" corners), then reinstall them. 5. Raise hitch into place and install 8mm bolts through hitch into existing weldnuts. 6. Install 10mm bolts with flat washers through hitch and frame end panels, add conical washers and hex nuts. 7. Install 10mm bolts with conical washers through hitch side arms into existing weldnuts. 8. Torque all fasteners to specification. 9. Reinstall muffler isolator hangers.
Tighten the 8mm-1.25 Grade 9.8 bolts to 25 Lb.-Ft. (34 N·M) using a torque wrench.
Tighten the 10mm-1.25 Grade 8.8 bolts to 42 Lb.-Ft. (57 N·M) using a torque wrench.
Yes. You can remove the plastic push rivets holding the plastic bumper cover on both sides at the bottom of the bumper. Save these rivets as they will be reinstalled. This allows you to pull the bumper cover back for better hand and wrench access during installation.
Observe safety precautions when working beneath a 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 damaged hitch or ball must be removed and replaced immediately.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify a retorque interval, but regular inspection is recommended to maintain safe operation.
No. The existing 8mm bolts are removed from the frame end panels and returned to the vehicle owner. They are replaced with new supplied 8mm-1.25 × 55mm Grade 9.8 bolts that are installed through the hitch into the existing weldnuts.
No. The muffler heat shields must be removed, trimmed (a 4-1/4" × 4-1/4" corner section cut from each), and then reinstalled before the hitch is installed. The bolts that attach the heat shields are saved and reused to reinstall them after trimming.
The hitch is attached using: 2× M8-1.25 × 55mm Grade 9.8 bolts (with washers) through the hitch into existing weldnuts on both sides; 4× M10-1.25 × 40mm Grade 8.8 bolts (with flat washers) through the hitch and frame end panels, secured with conical toothed washers and M10-1.25 hex nuts; and 4× M10-1.25 × 40mm Grade 8.8 bolts (with conical toothed washers) through the hitch side arms into existing weldnuts.
