Expert Answers about Toyota Tundra


  • Comparing the Trailer Wiring Harnesses for a 2000 Toyota Tundra
  • Tow Ready/Reese has determined that the best way to add a harness, # 118367, to a 2000 Toyota Tundra would be to have an additional connector that is circuit protected and grounded up near the battery. This is more like how a factory harness would be. The Hopkins harness, # 43365, omits that part. The harness still works it is just not as protected as the Tow Ready harness. If I has to choose between the 2, I would spend a little more and get the added protection of the Tow Ready harness....

  • How is the RAS System Different From Add-A-Leaf System for 2001 Toyota Tundra
  • An Add-A-Leaf kit differs from the RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS34FR for your 2001 Toyota Tundra in that the Add-A-Leaf is literally just adding another leaf spring to your spring stack to help make it a little more robust where the RAS system is a little more "smart". It has a spring that helps to provide constant tension and you can adjust it some for more of a relaxed or stiffer ride quality. So instead of just making your leaf spring stack thicker...

  • Comparing the Curt Spectrum Brake Controller to Redarc Tow-Pro Elite
  • By all accounts the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170 works well and is easy to use and install on most vehicles. It is a brand new item so not a lot of feedback has come in on it. I did learn a few things though after speaking with our install team about this controller. First, compared to the Redarc controller # RED44FR, the Curt Spectrum is easier to install. It can be surface mounted meaning that drilling is not necessarily required (depends on how you run the wiring)....

  • Comparing Front Mounted Hitch Receiver for 2008 Toyota Tundra
  • The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 65080 is my recommendation for you based on cost and features. The installation of this hitch is nearly identical to the Curt # 31198. The Draw-Tite has a measurement of 7-1/2 inches from the crossbar to the end of the receiver tube. The Curt receiver has a measurement of 4-5/8 inches from the crossbar to the end of the receiver tube. The weight ratings of the hitches are identical, so the 2-7/8 inch difference in...

  • Is There a Difference Between K-Source Towing Mirrors for 2016 Toyota Tundra?
  • The only difference between the towing mirrors is that K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror # KS70104T is for the driver's side of a 2016 Toyota Tundra while # KS70103T is for the passenger's side and # KS70103-04T allows you to purchase both at the same time as opposed to individually. These mirrors are a conformed fit for your 2016 Tundra and are power mirrors with heated glass and turn signals on the sides. I've added a link to a video review of the mirrors for you to take a look at.

  • How to Tell the Difference Between a 4-Bolt and a 10-Bolt 5th Wheel Hitch Mounting Rail
  • It's pretty simple. A 4-bolt rail uses four 5/8 inch bolts ran through the floor of the truck bed into the frame brackets. The bolts run down through the center of the raised part of the rail, as shown in the photo I provided. A 10-bolt rail uses ten 1/2 inch bolts through the flanges that sit flat to the truck bed, also shown in the photo.

  • Adjustable Truck Bed Rack for the 2020 Toyota Tundra
  • We have a rack for you! The Erickson Truck Bed Ladder Rack for the 2020 Toyota Tundra, part # EM07705, is not adjustable. However, another one is. It's the Yakima OverHaul HD Truck Bed Rack, part # Y01151-5968. It can sit above your bed rails anywhere between 19" and 30", giving a range of difference if you choose to go this route. I've linked to a video review of this system for you to look at.

  • Differences Between the Reese Rail Kits part # RP58058 and RP30035
  • The Reese Base Rail Kit part # RP58058 that you referenced does not include the brackets that go from the vehicle frame to the rails. It only includes the hardware to secure the rails to the brackets. The part # RP30035 does include the L-brackets that will attach the rails to the frame. If you are looking for a universal rail kit that includes everything needed this would be the one to get. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

  • Difference Between Camco RV Wooden Sink Covers
  • There are a few differences between the Camco RV Wooden Sink Covers you mentioned, being their look and construction. Apart from that, they are the same type of sink cover, measuring 15" x 13" with rubber feet that keep the cover in place. The Camco Oak Accents RV Sink Cover # CAM43431 is made of solid oak and has a gloss finish to protect it. The Camco RV Wooden Sink Cover # CAM43436 is made of rubberwood (which is a stronger wood than the name implies) and also has a gloss finish.

  • Comparing Hopkins Backup Cameras and Alert Systems
  • I actually own the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera # HM50002 and it works beautifully. Since it is a hardwire system and not a wireless system, there are no interference issues like you get with the wireless systems. The screen on its monitor is 3-1/2 inches diagonally as opposed to the 2-1/2 inch screen on # HM60195VA. Basically, the 3-1/2 inch is much easier to see. Each system is going to show you whats behind you and alert you if you are close to bumping into something. System...

  • Comparing the Timbren Suspension Enhancement to other Helper Springs Options for 2007 Tundra
  • For your 2007 Toyota Tundra, I highly recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System part # TTORTUN4. The Timbren springs will be much more durable than the Air Lift AirCell Custom Helper Springs Kit which was discontinued. The durability will result in more support and a longer life. The Timbren have also produced much greater feedback from our customers and are currently one of the most popular suspension enhancements we carry. I have attached a review video of the Timbrens...

  • Comparing Air Lift Loadlifter 5000 and Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs on 2018 Toyota Tundra
  • There are a number of differences between the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2445 and Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88299, starting with fit. While the Air Lift will fit all models of the 2018 Toyota Tundra, the Firestone is only a fit for Tundra's with the TRD package (Toyota Racing Development). The biggest difference, and why I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 # AL88299, are that these springs come with internal jounce springs while the Ride...

  • What Is The Difference Between The Universal Fastway Coupler Lock And The Key Specific Locks?
  • The Fastway Trailer Coupler Lock # FA86-0015-318 and the other Fastway coupler locks such as # FA86-0015-310 are exactly the same lock. The only difference is that # FA86-0015-318 has key numbers 318, whereas # FA86-0015-310 mentioned above, will only work with key number 310. I have attached a review vides on these locks for you to check out as well.

  • Comparing RAS Leaf Spring Enhancement Kits RAS34FR and RAS4611TD For 2017 Toyota Tundra
  • You are correct that there are two RoadActive Suspension Leaf Spring Enhancement Kits for your 2017 Toyota Tundra, the # RAS34FR which has a 3000lb capacity and the # RAS4611TD with a 2000lb capacity. Between these two kits I recommend going with the # RAS34FR as it will give the most support to your suspension. These kits will not negatively affect your unloaded ride so there is not a down side in going with the heavier duty system. With the # RAS34FR you will not only get less squatting,...

  • How Do I Determine What Nerf Bars Are On My Truck
  • If you can't find the brand of step that you've got and you're looking for a replacement pad, then yes; the number of post holes and the spacing between them is going to be a good reference point to determine which nerf bars you've got. You may be able to find a replacement pad that has the same hole spacing but is made by a different manufacturer, so the hole spacing is probably the best place to start. For reference, the Aries # AA2090139 has posts 3-3/4" from each end and then spaced...

  • The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller, item # 90885, will work with both standard electric trailer brakes, and electric over hydraulic braking systems. I have attached a link to instructions for you to review. The Tekonsha PRIMUS IQ Brake Controller, item # TK90160, is not designed to work with electric over hydraulic braking systems, but will work great with standard electric trailer brakes, see instructions link. The P-3 brake controller is also compatible with both standard electric...

  • Comparing Draw-Tite and Curt Trailer Hitches for the 2013 Toyota Tundra
  • The Curt and Draw-Tite trailer hitches for yoru 2013 Toyota Tundra will be the same part numbers no matter which bumper type you have on your truck. Curt hitch # C15398 is actually a Class V hitch. There is no Draw-Tite Class V option but the Class IV is # 41935. The Curt hitch is rated much higher at 2,400 pounds tongue weight and 16,000 pounds gross trailer weight which likely exceeds the vehicle's capacities (conuslt owners manual for your trucks capacities). The Draw-Tite hitch is...
