Expert Answers about Chevrolet Suburban


  • Compatibility of Underbody Toolbox and Trailer Tray Cargo Carrier
  • Since the Stromberg Carlson Trailer Tray Cargo Carrier # CC-255, has tray dimensions of 32" long x 20" wide and measures 14" wide from back to angle cut. And the RC Manufacturing Z-Series Truck or Trailer Underbody Toolbox # UBT1818-30 overall dimensions are 30" long x 18" wide x 18" tall, we just need to make sure that the box will fit on the carrier. The edges on the carrier are angled, because of those angles the box will not fit on the carrier. This determination was based on how far...

  • Possible Replacement Mounting Hardware For Thule Combibox 250
  • I checked with Thule for you and they do not have any replacement mounting hardware for a Thule Combibox 250, so we can't confirm a fit for any hardware. That said, mounting hardware can often be made to fit, though it will likely require you to drill new holes in your cargo box. If you are willing to do that you should be able to use the Replacement Mounting Hardware for Thule Weekender Cargo Box # 1032802.

  • Can I Use the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00 on my 2001 Jayco Kiwi
  • If your 2001 Jayci Kiwi 21C has double-eye springs, you can use the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit to improve your ground clearance. You will gain the width of your axle (either 2 3/8" or 3") plus about 1/4" for the spring seat, as well as the depth of the springs. From what I found, your 2001 Jayco Kiwi 21C weighs about 3300 lbs. At this weight your trailer should have 2 3/8" axles. For those axles you will need the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit #...

  • Will Trailer Connector Adapter, # PK12716, Fit a 2006 Chevy Suburban 1500
  • The Trailer Connector Adapter, # PK12716, will plug into an existing 7-way trailer connector on the vehicle. If your 2006 Chevy Suburban has a 7-way connector on the rear of the vehicle you will be able to install this adapter. If your 2006 Chevy Suburban does not have a 7-way connector installed on the rear of the vehicle, but has the factory socket located above the spare tire you will need to install the Hopkins Replacement Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connector, # 30955. You...

  • 7-Way Trailer Connector for a 2006 Chevrolet Suburban and a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado
  • Yes, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C55774 will fit a 2006 Chevrolet Suburban and a 2000 Chevrolet Silverado as long as they both came with a factory 7-way as this connector is designed to replace the factory 7-way. I also recommend using a bit of part # 11755 before mating the two connectors together. If you don't already have a mounting bracket on the hitch than you can add one using part # C57202.

  • Grille Guard and Bracket Compatibility with 1999 Chevy Suburban
  • Unfortunately I can't help with brackets for that grille guard as it isn't one we carry. All of the Westin Sportsman and similar Aries Grille guards for that model year have 3 holes and the brackets are much different than what you have pictured. When the brackets aren't the same the grille guard often won't fit based on design. It is more likely than not with a second hand grille guard that it is not the correct fit for your vehicle. If you need a grille guard compatible with your...

  • Can the Swagman 4 Bike Rack # S64400 Carry 26 Inch Cruisers
  • The Swagman # 64400 bike rack should be able to handle your 26 inch cruisers with no problem. Since this rack uses straps to secure the bikes to the rack, and the rack does not use anti-sway cradles that prevent the bikes from swaying back and forth and striking each other or the vehicle carrying them, this is a rack I would typically recommend for an occasional rider who is transporting their bikes short distances. The rack has a 140 lb weight capacity, with a 35 pound per bike limit. If...

  • Aftermarket vs Factory Hitch Strength on 1999 Chevy Suburban
  • The Curt # C14029 is a Class IV hitch with a 10,000 lb capacity like you mentioned; the difference in capacities often comes down to construction, design and attachment points. In regards to the correct hitch and ball mount for your towing capacity and drop, the previously mentioned Curt # C14029 would be a great choice. As for ball mount for different amounts of drop, I recommend the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit - 2 Zinc Balls - 5-1/2" Drop, 6-1/2" Rise Item # AM3411....

  • Does the Husky Weight Distribution Head Part # HT31516 Come with Hitch and Sway Control Balls
  • The Replacement Head for Husky Weight Distribution Systems part # HT31516 does not come with a hitch ball or sway control ball but you can add them using part # HT39386 for hitch ball and part # C40093 for the sway control ball. We also have replacement spring bars available as part # HT31521. The sway control ball is made by Curt but it will still work with your Husky system. Please let me know if you need any other parts or have any further questions.

  • Platform Rack Fit on 2020 Chevy Suburban With Flush-Mounted Rails
  • Appreciate the photo, and there is a way to add a platform rack to your 2020 Chevy Suburban, but not the LockNLoad; instead, what you'd need is one from Rhino-Rack, which is the following part number: - Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System - 84" Long x 56" Wide # RR68AB The Pioneer Platform # RR68AB is similar to the LockNLoad, and will also mount to your rails, but does not use towers or feet like a roof rack - its backbone system mounts directly to your Suburban's...

  • Is Ground Clearance Reduced with Front Mount Hitch Installed on a 2015 Chevy Suburban
  • As far as ground clearance goes for your 2015 Chevy Suburban you will want to use the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31073 over the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65064 because the instructions call for you to cut the front fascia whereas the Draw-Tite instructions fort of hint that you may not need to. The access hole that needs to be cut for the Curt installation if 1-1/2" x 3" so at the most you will have an approximate 1-1/2" of the receiver hanging below...

  • How to Determine Compatibility of Wind Fairing on Factory Roof Rack Crossbars
  • The key to confirming a good fit of a wind fairing like the Rhino-Rack # RRRF3 on a factory-installed roof rack crossbar is knowing the bar dimensions and the size of fairing you want. This particular fairing measures 44-inches and its mounting hardware will fit a crossbar up to 1-1/4-inches tall x 3-1/2-inches wide. The bar also needs to provide at least 7/8-inch of room between the vehicle roof and the bottom of the bar; and there needs to be at least 35-1/2-inches of available bar...

  • Will the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 Work with My 1998 Chevy Suburban?
  • Yes! The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 works with the # ETBC7 on your 1998 Chevy Suburban. However, in order to install the # ETBC7 to prep the vehicle for the brake controller, you need a 4-way wiring harness installed before installing the # ETBC7. If you need a 4-way wiring harness, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55319. This harness conforms to the combined wiring system on your vehicle. This means that the brake and turn...

  • Will Powerbuilt 1-7/8 Inch 12pt Socket Work with Equal-I-zer Weight Distribution System
  • The Powerbuilt 1-7/8 Inch 12pt Socket # ALL643216 that you referenced will fit in the Equal-I-zer weight distribution hitch, like # EQ37120ET, # EQ37140ET, # EQ37040ET, # EQ37060ET and # EQ37100ET, to torque down the hitch ball. In the review video on the # ALL643216 socket, we found we were able to torque down the hitch ball in the Equal-I-zer hitch just fine with the socket. I have attached the review video of this socket for you.

  • Large Roof Rack Platform for 2016 Chevy Suburban
  • Yes! The Rhino-Rack Pioneer # JB0301 is a great rack for carrying ladders, lights, luggage, and load of other stuff! This is such a fun platform rack, and it is definitely larger than your other Yakima Mega Warrior # Y07080-82 rack even with Yakima's extra 22" attachment. You can customize the Pioneer with different accessories for your different needs. If you're carrying ladders often, I recommend getting some Rhino Rack Load Stops # RRRLH to keep your ladders in place. These just slide...

  • For your 2001 Chevy Suburban the 4WD or the 2WD will not matter for the front hitch. The choice for your vehicle will be if it is the 1500 series or the 2500 series Suburban.

  • Replacement Trailer Connector with 7- and 4-Way Connectors for a 2008 Chevy Subaruban
  • 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975 will fit in place of the factory connector on your 2008 Chevy Suburban. The wiring that is connected to the back of the existing connector will unplug from it and plug into the back of this new connector. The connector will likely not fit the same mount as the factory one but it does come with a mounting bracket of its own. Installation on your Suburban will be similar to the Tahoe in the video I have linked for you.

  • Is the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier Compatible on a 1995 Chevrolet Suburban LT w/ OEM Hitch
  • If your 1995 Chevrolet Suburban's OEM hitch a has a 2 inch receiver opening, then the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier will fit this vehicle. I researched the 1995 Suburban and found that the tongue weight for this year models where between 700-1000 lbs depending on the rating of the equipment installed. Check your hitch to make sure that it is rated at least up to 500 lbs. There usually is a label attached to the hitch that will give you this information. Do not overload the stated hitch...
