  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2004 PT Cruiser Behind Motorhome
  • According to Blue Ox, the # BX1956 base plate kit you'd looked at is compatible with turbocharged models of the 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser. For a tow bar, the Blue Ox Alpha 2, part # BX7380 would be an excellent choice. The tow bar is non binding, so it won't lock up when you're trying to unhook the vehicle from the tow bar. The Alpha 2 is also self centering, which means you won't have to have the vehicle perfectly lined up behind the motorhome in order to hook up. Safety cables are included. To...

  • What Bolts Are Used To Install Etrailer Hitch # e98854 Onto A 2016 Chrysler Town And Country
  • When installing The etrailer hitch # e98854 onto your 2016 Chrysler Town and Country it uses the existing M10 and M12 bolts that should be present on your vehicle. Since your hardware is missing you will need to contact your vehicle's dealership to get the correct hardware. If you buy standard hardware from a hardware store it will take away the warranty of your trailer hitch. The etrailer hitch in my opinion is the best hitch that we offer for your Chrysler Town and Country because it...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2004 Chrysler Sebring Sedan
  • We have 2 trailer hitch options available for the 2004 Chrysler Sebring Sedan- a Draw-Tite and a Curt; I recommend using the Curt # C12186 since the powder coating on the Curt hitches is a little bit more durable, so you'll have a hitch that stands up a bit better to some of the rigors of towing. If you're going to be towing with this hitch you'll also need a ball mount, hitch ball and wiring harness to power the trailer lights. For the wiring harness I recommend using the Tekonsha # 119178KIT...
