According to the installation instructions, which you can see by clicking the provided link, a 22 mm socket is needed for the M14 x 1.5 bolts used to install the Draw-Tite # 75225 on a 2014 Acura MDX. The bolts should be tightened according to the torque rating mentioned in the instructions.
If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you might also need the following:
Trailer wiring harness with 4-pole trailer connector, part # C56192. (A relay might be needed from your Acura dealer to activate the tow package)
Ball mount, part # 2923
Pin and clip # PC3 and/or hitch lock, # e98882
1-7/8 inch trailer ball, # 19260
2 inch trailer ball, # 63845
