  • Recommended Flat Towing System for 2010 Buick Enclave For Easy Install

  • Recommended 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness for 2018 Buick Enclave
  • For your 2018 Buick Enclave I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118761 because of Tekonsha's reputation for producing extremely reliable and long-lasting products. I can tell you that we receive far fewer troubleshooting questions regarding their harnesses than we do with those from any other manufacturer. This custom harness will install by simply plugging into a factory port beneath the Enclave on the driver's side (see attached photo). It will provide you with a...

  • Connecting 4-Way Trailer Connector on Tow Vehicle to 5-Way on Boat Trailer
  • Your best and easiest option is to simply use the Tow Ready Adapter # 20036 on your vehicle. This will plug right into its existing 4-Way to provide a 5-Way at the other end that will connect to your new boat trailer. The additional blue wire coming from the adapter will need to be spliced into the reverse light circuit wire on the vehicle to activate the reverse lockout on the trailer. I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to find the correct wire at the rear of the vehicle...

  • Parts Needed To Flat Tow 2009 Buick Enclave FWD Behind A Motor Home
  • You will only need a few parts to flat tow your Enclave. First you will need a base plate kit made custom for your towed vehicle. The Roadmaster # 523149-1 would be a good choice. Next you will need a tow bar. I recommend the Roadmaster # RM-522 “Falcon” All Terrain and Non-Binding tow bar rated for 6000 pounds. A non-binding tow bar will let you easily disconnect your tow bar even if your coach and towed vehicle is not on level ground or at a difficult angle. When your coach and towed...

  • Would the Thule Force L Cargo Box fit Factory Crossbars of a 2016 Buick Enclave
  • I checked with Thule and they list the Thule Force L part # TH6357B as a confirmed fit for the factory crossbars of your 2016 Buick Enclave. Most likely this would allow you to open the rear hatch without issue, but you can take one simple measurement to know for sure. Slide the front crossbar all the way forward and measure from it's center to the hatch seam. If that distance is greater than 47-1/2 inches the hatch would open with this cargo box without any interference.

I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.

  • You are on the right track! The Draw Tite hitch part # 75528 is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Buick Enclave as well as the trailer wiring kit # 118270. The wiring mount part # 18144 will also give you a place to mount the 4-way that bolts to the bumper. The ball mount part # C45036 that you referenced is would also work well if you need 2 inch drop. I attached a help article that details how to pick out a ball mount drop as well.

  • Recommendation for a Trunk Mounted 2-Bike Carrier for a 2013 Buick Enclave
  • The most popular 2-bike rack being used on the 2013 Buick Enclave would be the Thule OutWay trunk bike rack, part # TH45JV. This rack has easy-to-use fit dials for tightening the attachment straps, and it includes a built-in cable lock for securing the bikes. Since the bikes would hang on the two arms of the bike rack, you would need an adapter bar, part # TH982XT, if you plan to carry women's bikes or other bikes with slanted or oddly-shaped top tubes. The adapter bar allows the bike to...

  • Trailer Hitch And Wiring For 2018 Buick Enclave Essence
  • Excellent question! Personally I recommend the Curt # CU29FR which is a direct fit for your 2018 Buick Enclave Essence. Not only is the Curt a super reliable and excellently built product but it is also conceals very nicely when not in use due to its recessed design; which, allows it to sit behind the rear fascia. Additionally, a fine choice for wiring would be the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56394 which is a super easy, plug and play harness. If you are in need of a ball...

  • Hitch And Cargo Carrier For 2019 Buick Enclave
  • I checked with Thule and there is not a fit for a cargo box on the factory roof rack of your 2019 Buick Enclave; I checked with other manufacturers as well, and there was no fit for a rooftop cargo box. So to carry cargo with your '19 Enclave, the best option we have is a trailer hitch receiver and cargo carrier. - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU29FR - Stromberg Carlson Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # CC-100 - Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98880 I have added a link below to a video...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for Two 60 lb E-Bikes
  • The bike rack I highly recommend for a pair of 60 lb e-bikes is the Yakima OnRamp E-Bike Platform Rack # Y36FR. The reasons I really like the OnRamp is because of its value; compared to other e-bike racks that have a ramp the OnRamp is more economical but still very high-quality. The OnRamp is rated for 66 lbs per bike and holds the bikes with wheel straps on both wheels as well as an adjustable cradle to keep it securely on the rack. The cradles are adjustable so they can grasp any...

  • Hitch Recommendation for 2003 Cadillac Escalade EXT Model
  • I got you covered! Sometimes the "Cadillac" heading is hard to find because you have to hit the "see more" option on the bottom right side of the fitguide to view more brands. With that being said, a great hitch for your 2003 Escalade EXT model is the Curt - 2" # C13422. Not only does this hitch involve a super easy installation process that only takes about 30 minutes to complete, it also comes with a superior coating that provides you with more protection against rust/corrosion than...

  • Aero Style Crossbar Roof Rack for 2021 Buick Enclave
  • Thule hasn't yet released a fit for the 2021 Buick Enclave, but Yakima offers an awesome aero-style setup that uses their # Y53TR SkyLine towers, 50 inch JetStream crossbars in black as part # Y00425. You'll also need the # Y00245 Landing Pad which allows the roof rack towers to attach to the fixed points located in the flush mounted rails on the roof of your Enclave. I've linked to a video showing a typical installation.

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2015 Buick Enclave
  • The part number 13311081 that you referenced is an AC Delco part number which is an original equipment style of transmission cooler that was designed for specific applications. Our coolers like the Derale part # D13503 that you mentioned are universal style that don't fit as specifically but still fit and install relatively easily. This cooler will also be much more effective than the much smaller AC Delco part. To get an idea how the cooler will install check out the video I attached...

  • Charge Line Kit Recommendation for 2010 Buick Enclave Getting Flat Towed to Keep Battery Topped Off
  • Yes, as far as a charge line kit goes for your 2010 Buick Enclave the Roadmaster kit part # RM-156-25 is your best and simplest solution. Basically it connects to the 12 volt accessory circuit of your trailer wiring and gives you a trickle charge to offset the draw of your Brake Buddy system. It will be enough to keep the battery working properly. I attached a couple install videos for this as well. If the trailer wiring accessory circuit on your tow vehicle is not active you'll also need...
