Expert Answers about Chevrolet Impala


  • Is There a Baseplate Kit That Fits A 2015 Chevrolet Impala?
  • I went ahead and checked the owner's manual for your 2015 Chevrolet Impala, and the owner's manual actually states that you are not supposed to flat tow this vehicle, so there is not going to be any compatible base plates. They actually explicitly recommend that your vehicle be transported via flat bed truck, or to be dolly towed with a tow dolly like the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes # DM9713045. This tow dolly has a maximum vehicle weight rating of 4,800-lbs, measures...

  • Roof Rack for 2017 Chevy Impala that Fits Better Than SportRack Roof Rack
  • Your experience with the Sportrack # SR1010 is why I do not recommend this rack for vehicles. It is designed to fit quite a few different vehicles but what we have found is that it doesn't really fit any vehicle particularly well since it's a semi-custom fit. Instead a custom fit rack like the Rhino Rack part # RR69QR is going to be what you will want which will fit extremely well. This rack was specifically fit on your vehicle so it's going to fit perfectly and be very stable and solid.

  • Parts Needed to tow PWC Trailer with a 2015 Chevy Impala LTZ
  • We have exactly what you will need. But before that I wanted to thank you for looking up the towing capacity of your vehicle beforehand as that is a very important step many people ignore. The Curt Class II hitch part # C121115 is confirmed to fit your 2015 Chevy Impala LTZ and would work well for your needs. I attached an install video for you to check out as well. If the trailer you plan to tow calls for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball you would want the ball mount part # C45571 or for a 2...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  • I have another option for you, but the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Multi Fit - Class III - 2" # C13900 you mentioned is not a confirmed fit for your 2005 Chevrolet Impala, and there is not a 2" receiver option confirmed to fit your vehicle at this time. Instead I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" # 36407 which is a Class II 1-1/4" receiver with a 300lb tongue weight rating and 3500lb trailer weight rating. If you are planning...

  • 3 & 4-Bike Carrier Options for 2011 Chevrolet Impala
  • No 4-bike trunk-mount racks are made for any car due to the extreme weight load this would present. The chance for damage to the trunk or rear hatch from all that weight (easily 150-lbs between the 4 bikes and the weight of the rack itself) would be too much for the car. We do offer 3-bike trunk racks for your 2011 Chevrolet Impala that you can see on the linked page. I like the Thule # TH56BV as it fits over most spoilers and includes locks. If you need to carry 4 bikes you can instead...

  • Replacement Tires For 18x8.50-8 On Older Trailer
  • The 18.5x8.5-8 is an old tire size that is not used much anymore, they are bias ply tires but can still be used on pavement. We normally recommend radial tires for highway traveling because they flex easier which dissipates heat better. Before radials existed Bias trailer tires were used on the highway all the time. What would really make a difference is the speed rating, you can normally find the speed rating stamped on the side wall of the tire. I recommend to replace them since they...

It will be the best choice for its install time and this trailer hitch gross tongue weight is 50 pounds higher than the Draw-Tite.

We do not have a 2 inch receiver confirmed for your vehicle. The Curt Hitch has a tongue weight up to 350 pounds.

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver 12115 Fit 2014 Chevrolet Impala LT
  • Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" # C12115 is confirmed to fit your 2014 Chevy Impala LT. Keep in mind, this hitch requires the use of stabilizing straps # 18050 for all non-trailer loads. It is for that reason that I recommend installing the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" # 36538 instead. This does not require the use of stabilizer straps which is more convenient and keeps cost down. I have attached some installation...

  • Will the SportRack Frontier Roof Rack Leak Once Installed on a 2010 Chevy Impala
  • As long as you install the SportRack Frontier Roof Rack # SR1010 properly you should not have any problems with the window seals on your 2010 Chevy Impala. It sounds like your Chevy Lumina was an older vehicle. In recent years they have really improved door seals compared to how they used to make them so you should not have a problem on your Impala.

  • Fit of Trailer Hitches on a 2012 Chevrolet Impala with Dual Exhaust
  • Trailer hitch receivers are often designed to fit multiple years and model trim packages of vehicles. They work with the variations between those years and models to cover a larger range with one part. So sometimes the pictures or videos we have are on models that aren't exactly the same as your but the install will be very similar, if not identical. For example, the Draw-Tite # 36407 will fit the Chevrolet Impala from 2000 to 2013 and the Impala Limited from 2014 to 2016. This hitch...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2019 Chevy Impala That Has The Best Ground Clearance.
  • For your 2019 Chevy Impala there are two trailer hitch receiver options, the Curt # C12115 and the Draw-Tite # 36538. Between these two options I recommend the Draw-Tite # 36538 as it will sit back 1" further from the end of the bumper, and will sit 1/2" higher at right around 10-1/2" from the ground to the bottom of the receiver. I recommend driving your Impala to the dip before your driveway and measuring to make sure this will be enough clearance for you. Lastly if you do not already...

The hitch I recommend is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, part # 36543. This is a Class ll hitch and has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.

  • There are only class II, 1-1/4" trailer hitch options for a 2012 Chevrolet Impala, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 36407 is what I recommend. Fortunately, if you're trying to use a 2" hitch accessory there is still an option. The Brophy Hitch Adapter part # HTAD or part # HT5R.

  • Proper Clearance for Derale Series 9000 Transmission Cooler Part # D13614 in 2010 Chevy Impala
  • The Derale Series 9000 Transmission cooler can mount either in font of or behind the radiator. The unit measures 11 inches in length, 11-3/8 tall (including mounting tabs) and 1-1/4 inches thick. As this is not a vehicle-specific product, you will have to examine and measure the areas in front of and behind your radiator to see if the proper clearance exists. The preferred mounting location would be in front of the radiator for maximum air flow. Installing the cooler behind the radiator...

  • Will Thule OutWay Fit Rear Spoiler on 2012 Chevy Impala
  • The Thule OutWay # TH56BV is designed to accommodate most factory spoilers so if the spoiler on your 2012 Chevy Impala is small it should fit just fine. The Thule Bike Adapter Bar # TH982XT would be your best option because it telescopes from 16" to 31-1/2" long which accommodates a wide variety of bike frames. If you have any other questions let me know and I'd be happy to address them!
