Question:
Hi, I have decided to install Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76171 on my 2020 Honda Odyssey. I would like to use a Yakima full swing bike rack. Will there be enough bumper clearance? Especially clearance for for release handle for the swing arm. Thanks.

When we installed the Draw-Tite # 76171 Class III hitch on a 2020 Honda Odyssey, we found that once installed, the center of the hitch pin hole was recessed under the vehicle by about 4 inches, which represents the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the furthest rearward point of the bumper.
The shank of the Yakima # Y02465 FullSwing has a 9 inch distance between the hitch pin hole and the rear of the rack's foot which will leave 5 inches of space between the rear of the rack's foot and the face of the bumper. This will be plenty of room to allow the release handle to operate.
