For the Class III trailer hitch receiver I suggest the Draw-Tite # 75112. This is a custom fit 2 inch hitch receiver that will fit your 2004 Ford Explorer Sport Trac.
The B&W Tow & Stow # BWTS10037B is a great adjustable ball mount that provides either 5 inches of drop or 5-1/2 inches of rise. It will also store under the hitch when not in use. Use locking hitch pin # BX8858 or standard pin and clip # PC3. If the Tow & Stow doesn't work with your setup I've linked our selection of... view full answer...
Some trailer hitches do include a mounting bracket for trailer wiring but these are also available separately and they can be installed in places other than on the hitch itself. The two hitches we offer for your 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac are both 2-inch Class III types that are displayed on the linked page. Neither has a wiring harness bracket.
To install a 5-way round socket like # PK11502 on the hitch tube you can use bracket # RM-910030-5 along with bracket extension # C57202. view full answer...
Yes, the Curt Class III Hitch, part # 13407, will fit your 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac without removing the factory size spare tire. Spare tires larger than the factory size are not tested with trailer hitches so if your spare is larger than OEM it could prove to be a problem. I have included a link to the installation instructions on the Curt hitch for you to review.
I also attached a photo of a similar hitch installed on a Sport Trac with OEM full size spare. We do not have a photo... view full answer...
The Roadmaster base plates # 4405-1, are XL style base plates. The Stowmaster series of tow bars are compatible with XL base plates for the 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac.
To complete your flat towing set up you will also need the following items:
Safety Cables, # RM-643 or # RM-645
Bulb and Socket Kit, # RM-155
Supplemental Braking, # RM-9400
I have included a link to our series of FAQ articles on flat towing for you. You will want to consult the vehicle owners manual to determine if... view full answer...
I would be happy to help you. A weight distribution hitch is only going to be affected by the tongue weight of your trailer so that is the only number you will want to account for when determining what system you need. Since your 2017 Riverside Retro 177SE has a GVWR of 3,500 lbs and a TW of 420 lbs. I recommend the Reese Straight Line item # RP66072 you referenced. This system has a tongue weight range of 200 lbs - 600 lbs which will be perfect for your trailer. You will also need the... view full answer...
The Lippert Scissor Stabilizer Jacks # LC285344 can be used to provide a lower-cost and less-complex way to level/stabilize a motor coach or trailer These jacks offer 30-inches of lift and 5000-lbs of load capacity for each jack. This item is a set of two. The jacks comes with installation hardware and include a cranking handle.
When fully collapsed/retracted the jack's height is only 4-1/4-inches from the mounting point. view full answer...
Since your 2004 Ford Explorer Sport Trac has a 4-Way wiring harness already, you will need to start by adding an Adapter, but I recommend using a 4 and 7-Way Installation Kit, # ETBC7. Your 4-Way will plug into the back of the adapter and you will need to hardwire the remaining 4 wires.
First, ground the white wire to the vehicle frame. Next, for the purple wire, if the trailer does not have reverse lights this wire is not needed and you can tape it up and stow it out of the way. Otherwise,... view full answer...
The Kat's Heaters magnetic heater that you would use on your 2008 Chevy truck is the Handi-Heat Magnum # KH1190. It's designed to heat an area up to 20 square inches and is made for larger trucks. It does include a thermostat to automatically shut off when it reaches 275 degrees Farhrenheit.
275 degrees does sound extremely hot. However, since the heater has to compete with external temperatures (Which are going to be quite cold or the heater wouldn't be necessary) plus transfer heat... view full answer...
I went out to the warehouse to measure the length of the arms when extended for the JT's Strong Arm Jack Stabilizer Kit # LC191023. From the center of the hole on one end to the center of the hole on the other end it measures 46 inches extended. When retracted it is 26 inches. view full answer...
If your Valley Journey Brake Controller # 52650 delivers a constant brake output signal to your trailer connector you can use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to determine if the fault is in the controller itself or elsewhere. There are several potential causes for this issue. I have linked a help article that will be useful to you as you troubleshoot. Please note that in a separate email I have forwarded the instructions for the now-discontinued Journey.
You can start at the controller... view full answer...
Unfortunately the Manik is not a brand we carry. So I have no way to know what mounting hardware would work for that grille guard. We do have the Hardware Kit # AA89DQ which is custom fit for the Aries Grille Guard # AA3048 for your 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. This may be able to be work but would likely require some modification. view full answer...
From what I have found the 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac either came with a 4-Way flat trailer connector or no trailer connector. So unless the trailer has a 4-Way round pin connector or the vehicle has another type of connector (if both are 4-Way flats) the two should be compatible.
If the vehicle has a 7-Way blade style, you can use a 7 to 4-Way adapter, # PK12716.
If the trailer does have a 4-Way round, I recommend just going ahead and removing it. Replacing it with a 4-Way flat would... view full answer...
We do have trailer hitches for both vehicles, but acording to my research there are not any trailer hitches that will fit both the 2001 Ford Explorer and the 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac.
The recommended trailer hitch for the 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac is Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13407. Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13540 is recommended for the 2001 Ford Explorer. view full answer...
There isn't a brake controller wiring harness for the 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. A brake controller will need to be hardwired in. If the vehicle already has a 7-Way trailer connector then all you will need is # 5506. But if it has a 4-Way flat connector only then you will need # ETBC7. I have included some links that show and explain the hardwire installations. view full answer...
We have some towing mirrors that will likely fity your 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Adrenalin but unfortunately none of them are custom fit.
Take a look at the video I've attached of part # 11953-2 being tested on a 2010 Ford Explorer. I'm fairly sure it has the same mirrors as your Sport Trac. This clip-on mirror fits on most mirrors that are from 7 to 10 inches tall. view full answer...
I reccomend the Curt # C57WR Universal Truck Bed Exender which will fit nearly all full size pickup trucks including Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, Dodge, Ram, and Nissan, with standard 60" wide tail gates. (6.5 foot and longer beds) and provide 26-1/2 inches of additional bed length for storage and hauling. May not work with flare-style tailgates. Compatible with most tonneau covers.
I would check that measurement before ordering. view full answer...
The Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel # AM30750 that you referenced has a maximum speed rating of 65 mph, but for a similar wheel and tire with a higher speed rating we have the Taskmaster Radial Trailer Tire with White Spoke Wheel # TA78RR which is rated for up to 81 mph.
I attached review videos for both wheel/tires for you to check out as well. view full answer...
It is possible we have the right hub and drum (which I think is what you were referring to by brake drum kit) for your older boat trailer, but more information is needed to determine the right hub for your trailer, which I can help you figure out.
You will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped directly on them. If you are unable to find them, you need to use digital caliper... view full answer...

You can do two things to help reduce travel trailer sway.
First, you can try loading your gear in the camper further forward. This will increase tongue weight and reduce the tendency for the camper's rear end to sway. The more of the trailer's weight that is forward of the axle the less likely it is that the rear end will start its own travel plans!
Another step you can take is to install a friction sway control unit like the ProSeries # 83660. This unit can mount on either side of your... view full answer...
