Expert Answers about Hyundai Veracruz


  • Kuat Bike Rack with Best Rear Hatch Clearance for 2011 Hyundai Veracruz
  • We have not yet had the opportunity to test-fit any of the three racks on a 2011 Veracruz, so I cannot say with certainty what sort of rear-hatch clearance you would have. I can say that of the three racks, the NV would give the best chance of the hatch clearing the bikes. Because the platform section of the rack is not raised as high over the level of the receiver, it will place the bikes further away from the hatch. The NV also features a locking anti-rattle hitch lock and integrated...

  • Wiring Harness Blowing Fuses on My 2007 Hyundai Veracruz
  • I spoke to my contact at the manufacturer, and he said there have been no ongoing issues with the # C56332 wiring harness for your 2007 Hyundai Veracruz. You may have had a situation with a mis-wired or shorted trailer and the converter is shorted out. You can test the converter on both sides with a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to see if it is functioning properly. While you are doing this make sure there are no pinched or rubbed wires in the harness. If the converter is shorted, it will...

  • Will the Thule Hitching Post Pro 4 Bike Rack Fit on a 2011 Hyundai Veracruz
  • The Thule Hitching Post Pro 4 Bike Rack, # TH934XTR, is a great choice for your 2011 Hyundai Veracruz as long as you have a trailer hitch. I have attached a video review of this bike rack being installed on a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe for you to check out. Since you will be carrying a womens bike, I would recommend picking up the Thule Bike Adapter Bar, # TH982XT. Some womens, childrens and alternative bike frames are difficult to mount on bike racks and often mount in awkward positions....

  • Elements Included in Factory Tow Package for 2010 Hyundai Veracruz
  • The best way to determine with certainty how your Veracruz was equipped from the factory would be to contact your Hyundai dealer. If you provide them with your VIN, they should be able to provide you with the information you need. My research indicates that the towing capacity of the Veracruz is 3500 lbs "When Properly Equipped". For some vehicles this means simply adding a hitch and a trailer wiring harness. Other vehicles might require a transmission cooler, oil coolers, power steering...

  • What is Towing Capacity of 2007 Hyundai Veracruz
  • Generally speaking vehicle frames are actually really strong and a great place for attaching a trailer hitch. The Curt hitch part # 13545 that you referenced was rigorously tested for capacity and it can safely tow a trailer that weighs up to 3,500 lbs and has a tongue weight of up 350 lbs. I did some checking on your 2007 Hyundai Veracruz and it has the same towing weight capacity which means that when a hitch is attached to the frame you'd be totally safe to tow up to 3,500 lbs.

  • Most Concealed Hitch Recommendation for a 2011 Hyundai Vercruz
  • The hitch that will be the least visible when installed on your 2011 Hyundai Veracruz is the Curt Hitch part # 13545. The crosstube of this hitch comes up higher than the other hitches for your vehicle so it would be the most hidden of the confirmed to fit hitches. You will still be able to see the hitch opening once installed, but at least the rest of the hitch will be largely out of plain sight.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2008 Hyundai Veracruz with Factory Side Rails

  • Is There a Curt 1-1/4" Receiver Hitch for 2007 Hyundai Veracruz
  • While I do have a solution for you, there is not 1-1/4" hitch that will fit your 2007 Hyundai Veracruz. I do, however, still recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch receiver 2" # 13545 for your Veracruz. In order to have a 1-1/4" receiver you simply need an adapter. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter - 2" (Class III) to 1-1/4" - 4" Long # C45770 for your needs. This will allow you to use any 1-1/4" accessories you may have. I have attached a video review of the adapter for your...

  • Parts Needed to Add Brakes to 3500-lb Axle on E-Z Loader Trailer
  • We do offer both disc brake kits and individual components. The most popular configurations are used for the kits but if you need to order items individually we can help you with that too. Adding brakes to a trailer that does not already have them requires a number of components that are detailed in the linked article. This article is a good place to start. I also included an article about adding hydraulic drum brakes to a trailer, since this is a much lower cost option. Electric drum brakes...

  • Is a Wiring Harness Included with a Trailer Hitch for a 2011 Hyundai Veracruz
  • Wiring and hitches are sold separately because not everyone uses a hitch for towing. Trailer hitches for the 2011 Hyundai Veracruz such as # 75532 include the hitch and the hardware to install it. For the trailer wiring you can use harness # C56332 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle. I also recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes...

  • Does The Draw-Tite Hitch, # 75532, On The 2010 Hyundai Veracruz Fit Under Or Over The Exhaust
  • I called the supplier (Draw-Tite) to see if the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75532, will sit under or over the exhaust on the 2010 Hyundai Veracruz. They said you will lower the exhaust and install the hitch then raise the exhaust back into position, so it will be over the exhaust. I do not have a picture of this hitch on a Hyundai Veracruz, but I will send you a link to the instructions that shows where the hitch will be located in reference to the rear fascia.

  • Will The Yakima Skybox 21 Cargo Box Fit On A 2010 Hyundai Veracruz
  • If your 2010 Hyundai Veracruz has a factory roof rack with the crossbars that go from side to side, the Yakima Skybox 21 Cargo Box, # Y07337, will attach to the factory crossbars with no problem. If your vehicle has the factory raised rails that run from front to back, then you will need the Thule Roof Rack System, # TH711400, # TH710401. This system will attach to the side rails on your vehicle and give you the Aero crossbars that are needed for attachment of the Yakima Skybox 21 Cargo...

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring and Brake Controller Recommendation for 2011 Hyundai Veracruz
  • For a trailer hitch for your 2011 Hyundai Veracruz the Draw Tite part # 75532 is the correct hitch to use. You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # C56332. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well. For a...

  • Should Vehicle be On or Off When Using a Rightline Gear SUV Tent # RL110907
  • You would not want to have your vehicle running with the Rightline Gear SUV Tent with Rainfly # RL110907 installed. Not only would it fill the tent with poisonous fumes like you mentioned, but it would also melt the tent most likely.

  • Largest Roof Box Compatible with 2012 Hyundai Veracruz
  • Great question. If you already have a roof rack, then you can just focus on the roof cargo box but if not, you first need to address that. If you have a naked roof without siderails, then I recommend going with the Rhino-Rack roof rack consisting of # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK099. If you have the factory side rails, then I recommend the Malone # MPG215 to give you the necessary crossbars. The Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Black AeroSkin # TH6359B is the largest...

  • Upgrading Tekonsha 4-Way to Tekonsha 7-Way Connection on 2012 Hyundai Veracruz
  • The # TK24FR will use the same ports as the # 118269 so it would need to be replaced in order to use it. Since this only has a 7-way connection, you would also need an adapter for your scout trailer. The Pollak 7 Pole to 4 Way Connector Adapter # PK12716 plugs into the 7-way at the back of your vehicle converting it to a 4-way which would let you connect your other trailer. I do have one other option for you, and that is to use the Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7. This kit comes with...

  • The dimensions to these lenses are as follows: the A16RB is 8-1/16 inch x 2-7/8 inch and the A17RB is 2-13/16 inch x 2-7/8 inch. These are only the lens covers and do not include any of the electronic components.

  • Will the Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack fit a 2011 Hyundai Veracruz without Interfering with Exhaust Flow
  • The Swagman XTC4 bike rack # S64665 has a shank that actually comes out of the hitch and raises the bike rack up 3 inches for better ground clearance. I would recommend measuring 3 inches up from the top of your trailer hitch to see if the extra height would bring the wheels out of direct contact with the flow of the exhaust. You could alternatively add some exhaust tips to redirect the flow away from the bike rack. This would give you more options when choosing a bike rack, as the exhaust...

  • Mounting 4-Pole Connector from Curt Connector Part # C56332 on 2011 Hyundai Veracruz
  • The 4-pole connector at the end of your trailer wiring harness can certainly be zip tied, but using an installation bracket like part # 18144 along with a no drill mount like part # 18140 is recommended for a clean looking installation. On my wifes KIA Sedona, I used the no drill mount, part # 18140, the bracket, part # RM-910030-5 and the knock out adapter, part # HM47605. Your existing 4-pole would plug into the rear of the adapter and would make the most professional looking installation,...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2011 Hyundai Veracruz
  • We do not carry any hitches for the 2011 Hyundai Veracruz that are totally hidden behind a rear body panel. All of them are designed to fit below the rear bumper like the Draw Tite part # 75532 that you mentioned. This is still the best hitch for your vehicle though. It installs a bit easier than the Curt and doesn't require the stabilizer strap when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack like the the Curt does as well.
