Yep: Denny put both the icing and the ice cream on the cake with the Acura web site find.

I was hoping RMRay would sign back in to answer your question about the proper spring bars to get with your WDH. He has a 2720SL and is our resident expert on WDH's as well as many other subjects. I think he is using 750lb bars but hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Others are using up to 1,000lb bars on truck-based SUV's and pickups but you'll probably want to stay below that with the MDX. We recently moved from a 400lb Draw-Tite to a 600lb Equal-I-Zer for our (350-400lb tongue weight) TM2619 but the 400 D-T was adeqate for the light loads we carried when towing with the Odyssey.

My wife's eyes lit up when I told her she can now take more stuff along so I may live to regret revealing the WDH change.
