  • Kuat Transfer or Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack on 2020 Honda HR-V?
  • The Curt Hitch # C11416 for your 2020 Honda HR-V is a Class I hitch with a 200 tongue weight capacity. For that reason, the Yakima HoldUp # Y02445 is actually not compatible with this hitch since it is designed for Class II 1-1/4" hitch receivers. They did that because it can carry heavy electric bikes of up to 60 lbs each. 120 lbs of bike weight plus the 50 lbs rack weight can come close to maxing out Class I hitches. Either way, I would still prefer the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU74FR for...

  • Tow Mirror Recommendation for 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee that is Very Stable
  • We don't have any custom fit mirrors for your 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee so you'd be limited to using a universal mirror setup like you mentioned. It's not the prettiest option but the door mounted universal mirrors like the CIPA part # 11650 would be a really great option. We had the chance to install this on a similar 2010 Cherokee and found it fit really well and were very stable.

  • Best Kayak Trailer and Carriers for Two or Four Kayaks
  • For a kayak trailer, I'm a fan of Malone's trailers. I personally did a video on their Malone MegaSport Trailer with Saddle Style Carriers # MPG550-U since I'm a big fan of the saddle style carriers as well as their cargo boxes designed for fishing trips. Since it's such a heavy-duty kayak trailer (I jumped on the fenders to test them), it's a smooth ride and was also surprisingly easy to maneuver by hand. If you want an extra strong and sturdy kayak trailer, the MegaSport is the way to...

  • How To Add Brakes To a 3,500 Axle On Boat Trailer
  • It's actually pretty simple to add brakes to a trailer, especially if you already have a welded-on trailer brake mounting flange which should be present on all 3,500 lb axles. The easiest and most cost effective brakes to install are electric drum which contrary to popular belief can be used on a boat trailer even in saltwater. For this, I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-35-SA and Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. Finally, you'd need the Trailer...

  • Recommended Replacement for Goshen DLB 800 Winch
  • The Goshen DLB 800 Winch is a left hand winch which refers to the side of the winch the handle is on. For a replacement, I recommend the Dutton-Lainson Hand Winch part # DL74FR which is also a left hand winch with 800 lb capacity so it will be an excellent match. Most winches are right hand which explains the issue you had.

  • Reese Friction Sway Control Kit for Light Weight Camper w/ BMW 3 Series
  • Yes, I suggest the Reese Friction Sway Control Kit # 83660. This will assist in reducing trailer sway caused by winds, curving roads or sudden maneuvers; allows you to adjust tension for the perfect amount of control and resistance. You will also need the Reese Sway-Control Bracket for 1-1/4" Drawbars # RP26005. There are multiple trailer hitches available for the 2015 BMW 3 Series; please use our fit guide for selection of confirmed fit hitches and wiring harness for your particular...

  • Is There An EcoHitch for a 2020 Volkswagen Jetta
  • I do have trailer hitch options for a 2020 Volkswagen Jetta (All Models Excluding Dual Exhaust) but there are none from EcoHitch at this time. Instead, I recommend using the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24978 which offers a bolt-on install with hidden design. It can be used for towing or bike racks and cargo carriers.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution/Sway Control System for 11,300 GCWR Trailer
  • The correct system for your needs will depend on the trailer's tongue weight when it's fully loaded and ready to tow. The weight of anything stowed behind the rear axle in the truck bed should also be considered tongue weight. I'll link you to an article showing a few ways to find the trailer's tongue weight, but the easiest way would be to use a tongue weight scale like the etrailer # e99044. Now for the Curt weight distribution hitches you looked at. The # C17063 is designed for trailers...

  • Recommended Ball Mount for 2020 Chrysler Pacifica with Recessed Trailer Hitch
  • The best ball mount option we have for a 2020 Chrysler Pacifica with recessed trailer hitch is the Reese Adjustable Ball Mount part # RP21141 which offers up to a 6-1/4" rise. It then measures 6" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the start of the gusset (see photo). The 2" Hitch Ball part # 63845 can be used to complete the setup.

  • 7-Way and Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Chevy Express Van
  • Since you have the factory tow package wiring all you'd need for a 7-way is the part # HM40975 which attaches to the round connector you have at the rear of your vehicle and provides both a 7-way and a 4-way plus comes with a mounting bracket. Then for a hitch the etrailer hitch # e98861 is also a fit for your 2019 Chevy Express van. It's a really great option as it has higher towing capacities, installs very easily, and is priced great too. I attached an install video for this for you...

  • Parts Needed to Convert Boat Trailer with 3,500 lb Axles to Electric Over Hydraulic
  • As long as your boat trailer has 3,500 lb axles the parts you mentioned would work great as the Hydrastar actuators like part # HS381-9067 are the most reliable and best performing, the Titan Premier part # T2HRCM10DAC is a solid setup that will do great fighting corrosion since it's Dacromet. And since the hubs don't have bearings included you'd need the bearing kit part # BK2-100 that you mentioned as well. Then for a brake line kit the part # T4830000 would be all that you'd need.

  • Compatible Roof Rack Feet for 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD
  • The Thule Wingbar Evo Crossbars # TH711420 (Black) or # TH711400 (Silver) are good aerodynamically shaped crossbars designed to cut down on wind drag and noise. I'd like to mention though that the modern aero bars like these are larger than older designs. As you buy accessories in the future, try to get ones that clamp down to the T-tracks so you can maximize your bar space and won't have to worry about if the clamps fit around WingBars. The correct feet for these bars on your 2021 Toyota...

  • Install Harness for Tekonsha Voyager to Install in 2019 Chevy Suburban
  • To install your Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 in your 2019 Chevy Suburban you would need a new install harness with part # 3016 since what you have from the old vehicle would not fit the new one due to changes they made to the vehicle.

  • Rail and Hitch for Western Star Tractor to Tow Fifth Wheel Trailer
  • We don't have any custom fit rail kits for the Western Star but if you're okay with drilling a universal rail kit like the part # RP30035 would be your best option. Then for a 20k hitch with a pivoting head which I believe is what you customer is asking about the Reese M5 part # RP30928 would be a really great option that's easy to use and very quiet since it has a very tight fitting jaw design.

  • Parts Needed to Make 50 Foot Long 30 amp to 50 amp Twist Lock
  • The best solution we have would be the Mighty Cord 30 amp part # A10-3050EH and then use the adapter part # CAM55582 to convert to the 50 amp connector size since we don't have a 50 foot long version of the adapter you are wanting.

  • Slide Out Awning for RV That Measures 154 inch Flange to Flange
  • Since the flange to flange width of your slide out is 154 inches the correct slide topper you'd need is the part # LCV000168109 for black or # LCV000163300 for white. These can go out up to 48 inches so your 36 inch depth would be no problem at all.
