2009 Honda Element hitch questions
Which trailer hitch fits a 2009 Honda Element?
CURT 13574 (Class 3, 2-inch receiver, 3,500 lb) and CURT 11700 (Class 1, 1-1/4 inch receiver, 2,000 lb) both fit. Pick the class that covers your trailer with room to spare, then check the fit table on the product page for your build.
How much can a 2009 Honda Element tow with this hitch?
The hitch is rated to 3,500 lb gross trailer weight and 350 lb tongue weight. Your Element has its own tow rating in the owner's manual, and the lower number is your limit. A loaded bike rack counts against tongue weight too.
Do I need a wiring harness for the 2009 Honda Element?
If a trailer is going on, yes. Brake and turn signals have to work, and CURT 56029 plugs into the factory connector so the trailer lights follow the Element's. Order it with the hitch and it's one install.
Will it fit my Element?
Nearly every build, with a few exceptions. CURT 13574 doesn't fit the Sc trim. The full fit table is on each product page, so check it before you order.
