Expert Answers about Chevrolet Equinox


  • Base Plate Needed for Demco Tow Bar & 2017 Equinox
  • Since you have a Demco Tow Bar, I suggest the Demco Classic Base Plate Kit, # DM9518315 for your 2017 Equinox. This is compatible with all Demco tow bars. The Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System, # BLU37TR is a great choice and what I recommend. This unit lets you monitor your braking system while you're driving your motorhome, so you'll always be aware that the Patriot 3 is working and functioning properly. For your tow bar wiring, I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire...

  • Availability of Blind Spot Mirrors For a 2011 Chevrolet Equinox
  • I have many blind spot mirrors available for your 2011 Chevrolet Equinox. The blind spot mirrors are universal and can be attached by one of three ways, clamp-on, clip-on, and stick-on. Most of the blind spot mirrors are a convex shape that will help eliminate any blind spots on your factory mirror. You will want to choose the correct mirror by the size that will fit the mirrors on your vehicle now. I am including a link to a page of the blind spot mirrors I have available. I do not...

  • 2 Inch Hitch to Carry a Swagman titan S63400 2 Bike Rack on a 2016 Chevrolet Equinox
  • You can purchase a 2-Inch hitch to use with the Swagman Titan 2 Bike Rack, part # S63400 from us. I recommend purchasing an etrailer Class III hitch, part # e98865 for your vehicle because it is capable of using a Class III. A 2-inch hitch will come in handy as they have a wide range of applications and accessories compatible with them. You will want to verify your vehicle's towing capacity in its owner's manual before use. Additionally, there's no drilling required for installation,...

  • Availability of Multipurpose Ball Mount for a 1-1/4 inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
  • When you get to the small 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch receivers there tends to be more restrictions on what they can accomplish due to their lighter weight capacities. Unfortunately there are no multi-purpose, or special ball mounts that can be used with a 1-1/4 inch receiver. You will only be able to use the regular ball mounts. Keep in mind that when choosing the correct ball mount for towing you will want to take your trailer and tow vehicle to a level area and measure from the ground...

  • 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector Solution for 2007 Chevy Equinox
  • For your 2007 Chevy Equinox you'll first need to install a 4-way trailer wiring harness part # C56012 and then convert it to a 5-way with the adapter # 20036 and you'd be set. Now to install the 5-way you'll just plug it into the 4-way and then run the extra wire of the kit to the reverse light circtuit of your Equinox. This is the only and easiest solution. I attached an install video for this on a similar vehicle for you to check out as well.

  • Correct brake/tail light kit for an 2020 Equinox Premier with LED lights and using a Nighthawk towba
  • The # RM-15267 is what Roadmaster recommends for a 2020 Chevy Equinox Premier. Unfortunately, Roadmaster doesn't offer a diode kit for your Equinox that doesn't include the cord. However, since the cords can get damaged by road debris, having a spare isn't the worst idea in the world.

  • Curt 4-Way to 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat for 2016 Chevrolet Equinox
  • I recommend the Curt Trailer Connector Adapter # C57672, 4-Way to 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat. What I like about this is that it provides you the needed 7 way but extends out the existing 4 way making both available. Please note that while this will allow the 7 way to plug into vehicle it will still only support the lighting functions of the 4 way. If you want full functionality of the 7 way you will need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 as well. Please...

  • Largest Cargo Bag that Will Fit on Roof of 2010 Chevrolet Traverse
  • Fabric cargo bags such as the 18-cubic-foot Rightline # RL100S30 that you referenced offer the advantage (over metal baskets and plastic cargo boxes) of having a flexible nature. Their soft construction means that they can adapt to the shape of your loaded cargo and to a degree to the vehicle on which they are installed. Unlike cargo baskets and boxes, some soft cargo bags can be installed on a bare roof that has no hardware (no side rails and/or no crossbars) and this can make them a cost-effective...

The LED light that comes with the Stay-IN-Play is only for wiring inside the vehicle being flat towed. Since the Coachlink is wireless you will not have to do any wiring inside your motorhome.

  • How to Carry E-Bikes with 2019 Chevy Equinox
  • Unfortunately there are no suspension enhancements available for the 2019 Chevy Equinox that would help combat rear end sag on your vehicle while carrying these heavy bikes. I would also add that using a hitch extender like the # HE06 often times reduces the tongue weight capacity of your vehicle by 50%, so you'll want to make sure that you're not overloading the vehicle's capacity when carrying these bikes. It might be worth looking at removing the batteries of the bikes and storing...

  • Is There a 1-1/4" Hitch for a 2020 Chevrolet Equinox
  • There is a 1-1/4" Class II receiver that fits on the 2020 Chevy Equinox with the Draw-Tite # 36642. This hitch has the 1-1/4 receiver that you're looking for. If you're going to be towing anything with your Equinox you may need a few other items to complete your towing setup. If you don't already have a wiring harness for a 4 way trailer connection, you'll want to use the Tekonsha T-one # 118750 (for models excluding the Premier), which tees into your vehicle's electrical system with...

  • Trailer Hitch Fit Recommendation for 2020 Chevy Equinox
  • We do indeed have trailer hitches available for the 2020 Chevy Equinox. If your Equinox is not a Diesel model, I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch part # C77FR. If it IS a Diesel, you'd want to use the Draw-Tite Class III, part # 76217. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # 118759 if your vehicle is a Premier model, # 118750 if it isn't a Premier, and if it has the factory tow package, you'd use # C94FR which includes the relays needed...

Since it plugs in line with the vehicle tail light wiring it can be used on vehicles with or without the factory tow package. I have included a link to the installation details for you.
