• Methods to Deter Theft of Rightline Sport 3 XL Waterproof Carrier # RL100S30
• Any fabric-type rooftop cargo bag, including the Rightline Sport 3 XL Waterproof Carrier # RL100S30 that you referenced, will use integrated straps to secure to your vehicle's roof rack or side rails. While it is possible to add a cable-style lock such as # e98891, this would only slow down any would-be thief. Since the bag's straps can be cut the lock would only provide for a modest complication for a person intent on stealing your bag and property. We do offer lockable cargo carriers...

• What Gear Does 2007 Pontiac Vibe Need to be in to Tow on Dolly
• I pulled up the owners manual of your 2007 Pontiac Vibe and to tow it on a tow dolly like the # RM-2000-1 you need to put the transmission in park if it's an automatic or neutral if it's a manual. Clamp the steering wheel in the straight ahead position using the seat belt wrapped around the wheel a few times and then buckled. Next you'll pull the belt all the way out so that it engages the ratchet mechanism and you'll then pull it as tight as you can to the wheel so that the belt is locking...

• Is RV Trailer Hitch Available with 10,000 lb Weight Capacity
• If you are looking for a trailer hitch to mount on your RV then the highest rated capacity is the Curt Trailer Hitches parts # C13702 and # C13701 which are both rated for a max of 6,000 lbs towing when a weight distribution (WD) system is used.

• Correct Towing Capacity of Curt Hitch for 2004 Pontiac Vibe
• The correct capacity for Curt hitch # C12234 is 2000 lbs towing and 200 lbs tongue weight. I took a look at the owner's manual and it states that your 2004 Pontiac Vibe has a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 lbs, which is the weight you would need to go by. That hitch does come with a drawbar and pin and clip, though if you are looking to tow you will also need a 4-flat connector, which you can add with T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118458. For a 1-7/8" hitch ball you would need # A-80...

• Does a 2008 Pontiac Torrent Require a Transmision Cooler to Pull a Camper Under the GTW Limit
• You would use a transmission cooler if, when towing your trailer, your transmission fluid is above 200 degrees Fahrenheit. However, if the manufacturer says not to install one, then you need to follow their recommendation. There could be any number of reasons why an aftermarket transmission cooler should not be installed. It might not fit anywhere, depending on where mounted it could block the engine cooling system too much, or the vehicles just have not been tested for one. If they did...

• Is a 2 inch or 2-5/16 inch Ball a Standard Size for a Hitch Ball
• 2 inch or 2-5/16 inch diameter balls are pretty standard sized balls, it is not surprising that the coupler on the 1997 Coleman camper accepts either one of those sizes. For a 2 inch ball I would recommend a Hitch Ball with 2 inch Diameter and Medium Shank, part # 19247. If you need a ball mount as well I would recommend a Ball Mount 2-3/4 inch Rise or 4 inch Drop, part # 2753.

• How to Carry 3 Bikes on a 2009 Pontiac Vibe GT
• Yes there is a way that you can carry 3 bikes using your 2009 Pontiac Vibe GT. You can use a trunk mount bike rack. Your Vibe has that spoiler piece at the top of the rear hatch. To avoid putting stress on that spoiler there is only 1 bike rack I recommend; the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top rack # HRF2-3. This rack has an extra arm piece to move the top straps up and over that spoiler so no weight is put on it. And this rack holds 3 bikes and costs about the same as a trailer hitch plus...

• Comparing Rhino Rack RLT and RLCP Roof Rack Leg Kits
• The difference between RLT and RLCP Rhino Rack legs is how they mount. The RLT feet, like # RLT500, fit in special Rhino Rack tracks and are held in place with barrel nuts. The RLCP legs are designed to fit fixed points or factory tracks on vehicle roofs though they can fit in Rhino Rack tracks. Normally the RLT bars are associated with the more heavy duty square Rhino rack bars and the RLT feet are associated with the Aero bars they each foot style could support both bars styles. The...

• What are the Cut Outs for on the Back of Trailer Fender # PF11X35W-2
• If you look at some of the other pictures of Fender # PF11X35W-2 you will see that it has somewhat of a cut out on either side at the back but they are for the included mounting brackets. The same goes for the Fulton fenders but they do not come with mounting brackets. Clearance lights can be surface mounted to the outside of the fenders. Rectangular lights measuring from 2-1/2 to 4 inches long seem to be the most popular for this application.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2003 Pontiac Vibe Behind a Motor Home
• I promise not to try to sell you a new car, only what you will need to flat tow the Vibe. The information below is complimentary. If you have an automatic transmission and the vehicle is front wheel drive, you will need to use a tow dolly and I will cover that later. If it is an automatic and all wheel drive it must be towed on a trailer, it cannot be flat towed or carried on a dolly. Now if you a manual transmission you can flat tow it.
