Expert Answers about GMC Yukon


  • Best 5-Bike Rack That Can Be Tilted Back with Bikes Attached
  • The Saris Glide EX 5 Bike Rack part # SA775 is the only five bike carrier that I am aware of that will allow the rack to be tilted back without the bikes being removed so this is truly the best option.

  • High Capacity Taillight Converter for Trailers With Multiple Lamps
  • The Hopkins # 46365 has a pretty good 8 amp per function capacity, so it should work for you. Because they draw a fraction of the power of an incandescent lamp, you might consider switching to LED lamps on the trailers that have multiple lamps. I've linked to some product description videos for the items mentioned above.

  • Hitch Ball Recommendation Made in America
  • I believe I have something that will work for you, but the Curt Hitch Ball # C40007 that you referenced is not made in the USA, it is made in China. You might be interested in a Convert-A-Ball Interchangeable Ball Set # 904B. This product is made in the USA and comes with an interchangeable hitch ball that will give you the option to easily change between a 2 inch and a 2-5/16 inch ball.

  • Which Stromberg Carlson Bumper Mounted Tire Carrier Should I Use, # TR-1 or TR-2
  • The only difference from the Bumper Mounted Tire Carrier, part # TR-1, and part # TR-2, is that part # TR-2 folds down to provide access to storage areas when mounted to your RV. If you think the folding feature would come in handy, I would recommend part # TR-2. If you think you can do without the folding feature, part TR-1 will work just fine. Part # TR-1 may also be a little quieter when mounted, as it is all one piece. I contacted our representative at Stromberg Carlson about what...

  • Will K-Source Tow Mirrors Scratch Mirrors of 2023 GMC Yukon
  • The K-Source tow mirror set part # KS49NQ would not scratch the mirrors of your vehicle as they are padded and custom fit for your mirrors. It's best to make sure the vehicle and the tow mirrors are as clean as possible before installing them though to limit off chance a surface scratch might happen.

  • Is There Frame Drilling Required to Install Blue Ox Base Plate Kit on 2021 GMC Yukon AT4
  • For your 2021 GMC Yukon AT4 the correct Blue Ox base plate kit is the part # BLU54VR which does require some minor drilling. You will use the base plate as a template to drill a couple small holes on frame of vehicle.The front fascia does require some minor trimming.

  • 2003 GMC Yukon Brake Controller Installation and Verification Of 7-Way Trailer Connection
  • First lets begin with the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller # TK90160 that you have in your 2012 Kia Sorento. This can be easily transferred to your 2003 GMC Yukon with the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3015-P. The adapter will simply plug into the harness connection block on your Yukon. I have linked an installation video below that was done on a 2004 Suburban as you will have the same connectors. The other end of the adapter will plug directly into your Primus controller...

  • Cargo Mat Recommendation for 2018 GMC Yukon SLT That Goes to Back of Second Row of Seats
  • We have just what you need. The Weathertech cargo floor mat part # WT40710 is a fit for your 2018 GMC Yukon with 3 rows of seats and the second row being a bench. This fits all the way up to the back of the second row of seats when they are folded down like you need. I attached an install video for this mat on a similar 2016 GMC Yukon as yours for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Snow Tire Chain For 275/55/20 Tires On 2011 GMC Yukon
  • This is one of those areas that causes confusion, so you are not alone. I looked at your owners manual online and it doesn't give you any options other than not to use chains. A former coworker of mine named Mike refers to this scenario as "Reno's Law". The basic conflict is the manufacturer says not to use them and the law often requires them. This is where the law would need to trump the manufacturer's warranty that they are protecting. My recommendation is to use the smallest...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for 2017 GMC Yukon Denali and ATC Enclosed Car Trailer
  • For your 2017 Yukon Denali and 24 foot ATC enclosed car trailer, I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution w/ 4-Point Sway Control - No Shank - 14,000 lbs GTW, 1,400 lbs TW # EQ37141ET. This will come with the 2-5/16 inch hitch ball needed, but not the shank. The shank I recommend to go with this system is the Curt Welded Weight Distribution Shank 7" - 10 Hole Adjustment # C17123 which will give you a 8-1/4 inch drop. You will only need a thin walled socket like # ALL643216 as...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch for Airstream Flying Cloud 27FB
  • When choosing a weight distribution hitch the most important factor is the tongue weight of your setup. This includes the loaded tongue weight of your trailer along with the weight of anything in your 2016 Yukon behind the rear axle. Based on what I found for the 2022 Airstream Flying Cloud 27FB the base weight with LP and batteries is 5,000 lbs with a GVWR of 6,000 lbs. The tongue weight is typically going to be 10-15% of your trailer weight. I recommend finding your exact tongue weight...

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for a 2011 GMC Yukon Denali
  • Since your 2011 GMC Yukon Denali owner's manual says not to use tire chains due to lack of clearance, the only tire chain I recommend going with is the Konig K-Summit XXL K78 # KON84FR because it mounts directly to the lug nuts and then only sits on your tire treads - there is no chain that sits on the back of your tire sidewall so you won't have any clearance issues. Obviously this is a premium option which is reflected in the price. You can try using a low clearance chain like the Konig...

  • Curt or Equalizer Weight Distribution Recommendation for 30 ft Camper
  • Equalizer weight distribution systems are regarded by many to be the best systems around. I recommend them quite a bit and it would be what I would recommend for you. The part # EQ37120ET would be the better option. The Curt systems like the part # C17501 aren't terrible systems but they are essentially Curt trying to copy the Equalizer design. We have also had a few issues with the frame brackets of the systems bending so we don't recommend them as high as the Equalizer. To install the...

  • Does Towing Capacity of 2005 GMC Yukon Increase If Air Bag Kit is Installed on Rear Axle
  • Adding a set of Air Lift rear-axle air springs # AL60769, or any other rear-axle suspension helper kit, to your 2005 GMC Yukon will not increase the vehicle's tow rating. That will remain at the capacity determined by GMC based on the specific complement of engine, transmission and differential. Whatever your owner's manual says remains the towing capacity even if a suspension helper kit is installed. If your concern is rear-end sag when the trailer is hitched then the best solution is...

  • Bike Rack for a 2005 GMC Yukon that is Sturdy, Tilts, and is Easy to Use
  • We have lots of 4-bike racks that are sturdy and easy to use. For tilting it will depend on why you need it to tilt. If you need the bike rack to tilt WITH bikes loaded then there are certain racks we need to look at. If you want a rack that tilts WITHOUT the bikes loaded then we can look at other racks. For a 4-bike model that tilts, is sturdy, and is easy to use I recommend the Thule Camber Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Steel # TH9056. This rack tilts out...

  • Jack Recommendation for Travel Trailer for Changing Flats
  • Going with a bottle jack like the Powerbuilt Unijack Bottle Jack with Built-In Jack Stand # ALL620471 would be what I would recommend. Since it doubles as a jack stand it gives you the ability to jack up the trailer and safely hold it at the height you want when changing the tire.

  • Which Dexter Leaf Spring Over-Under Conversion Kit for Catalina 27
  • If your leaf springs are currently on the underside of your axle, you can use an over-under kit to place the springs atop the axle, which will lift your trailer by an amount approximately equal to the diameter of your axle. These kits are only compatible with double-eye leaf springs. For a 2-3/8 inch diameter axle, use part # K71-384-00 or for a 3 inch diameter axle, use part # K71-385-00. Simply measure the diameter of your axle to determine which kit is needed. Keep in mind that altering...

  • Recommended Tire Chains for 2018 GMC Denali with P285/45r22 Tires with Minimum Clearances
  • On your 2018 GMC Yukon Denali, the factory tires and manufacturer limiting use of tire chains is to limit their liability. In some places it is required to use chains by law, so my recommendation is to use the chains with the smallest internal clearance required as that is what the manufacturer is concerned about. Most Class S chains should work fine for you. My recommendation is the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link - 1 Pair # TC2327 you referenced....
