We're about to start hauling a 13' Scamp with my 2003 E. A local RV repair shop installed a type of class I hitch that attaches by two bolts through the spare wheel well and one bolt through the loop at the rear/center of the frame. Just now doing my research (Valley, H and A), I more often see class I hitches for the E that attach to the frame with multiple bolts at two points on the rear frame and at the loop in the center. Both types are found made by Draw-Tite at http://www.etrailer.com/hitch-2003_Honda_Element.htm and in the photos I've tried to attach. (...new to the forum, thanks for your patience.)
I'm well versed (thanks to this great forum, FiberglassRV's, and my owner's manual) on weight limits, towing dangers, keeping trailers light, bearing's packed etc.
My immediate question is: Is this simple, wheel-well attached class I hitch (and that loop on the frame) beefy enough for a 1000# trailer?
