Yes, since you have 29-30 inches of crossbar space on your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek's factory crossbars, you will have enough room to carry 2 Thule ProRide XT # TH598004 bike racks on your roof. In order to make this work, you will most likely need to install one rack backwards so that the handlebars of your two bikes do not interfere during mounting or transport. view full answer...
Yes, you can use a step bit to open up the frame holes and will want them wide enough to fit your spacers through as a good measure for when you've drilled enough. I have included instructions and a very detailed video that starting at 2:25 shows how this is done in order to install the Curt # C13382.
I'm a big fan of the Kuat Transfer 1 Bike Platform Rack # KU64FR that can support bikes up to 60lbs with a 50" wheelbase and up to 4-1/2" tire widths with the #APBK adapter, so this is a... view full answer...
You certainly can substitute the # EX1035 tail clamps with the # EX1034 cab side clamps for a more snug connection. Extang tells me that doing so is perfectly acceptable, but it will make removing the cover more difficult. view full answer...
The connector that you found under your dash is actually the OBD-II port which is why it doesn't quite match up with a brake controller adapter, like part # 3034-P which fits Tekonsha and Draw-Tite brake controllers.
Typically we find on motorhomes that the brake controller plug is up under the driver's side dash, next to the steering column, or under the driver's seat. From what I could find it looks like your 2014 Coachmen Freelander was built on a 2013 Ford E-350 chassis. If you skip... view full answer...
Starting with the tow hooks, those will remain on your 2020 Toyota Tundra when installing the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65080.
They will be temporarily removed, but will be bolted back on. In regards to the hole, there is a small hole you will need to enlarge in the skid shield to allow for access to the oil filter. And as for how much hangs down, it will be the crosstube of the hitch.
I have added a photo a customer sent in of this hitch installed on their 2020... view full answer...
The HDMI port on the front of the iRV RV Stereo - Single DIN - AUX/USB, Bluetooth, App Control - 50W - 3 Zone - 12V Item # 292-101809 is an input. On the back of the stereo there is an additional HDMI input and an output. view full answer...
Yes your installation of the Go Power Eco Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller part # 34273837 should be located withing the range of the cables. In this case because it is a small panel designed to trickle charge your battery I would mount the panel and solar controller withing 25" of the battery and use the included cables to run the entire length. Like mount the solar panel and controller within 10 feet of each other cut the cable and use the remaining 15 feet to go to... view full answer...
The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118811 should be connected directly to the vehicle battery. This protects your vehicle wiring and it make sure you don't end up with a blown fuse or short circuit. The module draws 7.5 amps per circuit for the tail lights and 5 amps per circuit for stop/turn lights.
The battery powers the module which in turn powers the trailer lights. It keeps the module and trailer from drawing power from the vehicle turn/stop... view full answer...
Yes the Thule Compass kayak carrier part # TH890000 that you referenced does fit the factory crossbars of your 2015 Toyota Highlander. Looking at the factory bars of your vehicle I don't think you'd be able to fit both the kayaks and a cargo box as well.
The best solution to lock the Compass would be a cable lock like the Thule Cable Lock w/ One Key System Lock - 6' Long part # TH538XT. The Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs part # TH849000 is a carrier that can be locked... view full answer...
When wiring your backup camera, you can splice the camera power into the reverse light signal or you can splice into the running light circuit to give you an observation camera that gives you the view at any time.
To determine which of your wires is the positive power wire, you will need to use a circuit tester like # PTW2992. If wiring your reverse light circuit you will need to shift into reverse and then check for power using the circuit tester. If wiring through your running/parking... view full answer...
The Furrion RV Power Cord Adapter Plug - 30 Amp Female to 30 Amp Male Item # F3030ADRY still provides the same amount of power coming out as going in. This is only an adapter to provide a different pin setting than the original cable. If you have 240v 30amp coming into the adapter then you are going to get 240v 30amps out. Same goes if you are plugged into 120v 30 amp circuit. view full answer...
It's really not too good to be true.
As long as the 7-way trailer connector you're having installed has the 12-volt pin in the 1:00 position active, the Curt Echo wireless trailer connector, part # C51180 would be a plug and play installation on your 2011 Volkswagen Touareg with no extra parts necessary.
For the 2005 Chevy Colorado, you'll need a functional 4 pole trailer wiring harness like # 118301 and the # ETBC7L installation kit. The 118301 taps into the taillights circuits, and... view full answer...
Actually, for the Echo brake controller, you'll really only need the # ETBC7L kit, but the # ETBC7 kit you have will certainly work. You just won't need all the included parts.
To install the Curt # C51180 Echo wireless brake controller, you'd use the 30 amp breaker on the circuit running from the black wire on the 4-pole to 7-way adapter to the positive battery terminal. That's the only circuit you'd need to run to the front of the vehicle, and you wouldn't need any other of the included... view full answer...
If your leaf spring are currently atop the axle, you can indeed use a Dexter Over Under kit to swap the springs to the underside of the axle which will lower the trailer's deck height by the diameter of the axle tube plus the thickness of the spring pack.
Use # K71-384-00 for a 2-3/8 inch diameter axle tube, which is typically found on a 3500 lb capacity axle or
# K71-385-00 which can be a 6000-7200 lb capacity axle. view full answer...
The only functions of the 7-way that need to be active to operate the Curt # C51180 Echo Wireless Brake Controller are the right turn/brake lamp, left turn/brake lamp, running lamp circuit, ground and a 12-V feed from the vehicle battery. You won't need the input from the brake controller.
To install the Echo on the Ford Transit T350 (assuming it doesn't already have a functional 7-way trailer connector), you'll want to use part # C56327 and part # ETBC7L.
You won't need the brake controller... view full answer...
In addition to the Hayes Energize III # HA81742B brake controllers, you'll need a # HA81783-HBC wiring harness for the 1999 Ford F550.
The 2000 Chevy 1 ton and cab/chassis models weren't prewired for a brake controller until the 2001 model year, so you'd need to hardwire in the controller for that vehicle. You'll also need a # HA81789-HBC universal pigtail, unless you want to cut off the black connector on the controller. I'd recommend using the pigtail, as it would allow you to easily... view full answer...
The Go Power Industrial Pure Sine Wave Inverter with Transfer Switch - 1,500 Watt - 12V # 34279458 will have an unloaded draw of 1 amp DC current. I was able to confirm this information with my contact at Valterra/GoPower. view full answer...
There really isn't any reason to use stabilizers like the Lippert Ground Control 3.0 Electric 5th Wheel RV Leveling System # LC675817 during winter storage. The 5th wheel trailer has no need to be leveled or stabilized during storage, and a flat tire like you mentioned could be undue pressure on the system for a long period of time.
So I don't recommend using the leveling system during storage, but in order to help prevent flat spots on your tires during winter storage I do recommend using... view full answer...
I reached out to TorkLift and they told me that while the FastGun turnbuckles do not have a specific weight capacity in regards to the camper, they are designed to hold down a camper at the anchor point with 300 lbs of pull-down force per turnbuckle (so 1,200 lbs per set of our). The pull-down force is significant because it is what ensures the stability of the camper when anchored.
That said, we have also been told in the past by TorkLift that the anchors are designed to hold the largest... view full answer...
