  • Recommended Wind Fairing for a Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack Part # RR75TB
  • I do have an option for you but we currently do not offer the Pioneer Wind Fairing part RR43251 as of May 2018. However, I called my contact at Rhino Rack and they were able to confirm that the Rhino-Rack Fairing for Roof Racks part # RRRF4 will still work for your Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack part # RR75TB. The only major difference is length. The wind fairing part RR43251 is 2" longer than the wind fairing part # RRRF4.

  • Recommended Roof Basket For 2011 Land Rover LR4
  • Surco does not have a roof basket that can easily attach to your 2011 Land Rover LR4 so I do not recommend going with a Surco basket. Instead, I would look into a platform rack that can attach to your roof without needing to install crossbars. The Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System - 84" Long x 56" Wide # RR28AB would fit regardless if your roof is naked or if it has factory roof tracks. You can then add various accessories to the basket, such as the Ladder # RRRAFL.

  • Brake Controller And Adapter For 2011 Land Rover Defender
  • Factory tow packages vary by vehicle manufacturers. If your 2011 Land Rover LR4 has the factory Tow package included it will normally have the 7-way connector at the rear of the vehicle. The gray adapter plug for brake controllers would be right under the steering column through the cutout where the brake pedal arm is extended. I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller, part # 90885. This is a proportional brake controller that activates the brakes on the trailer in proportion...

  • Can Weight Distribution be Used on 2016 Land Rover LR4
  • The hitches we offer for your 2016 Land Rover LR4 are rated for use with weight distribution like the Curt part # 13456. It's capacities with a WD system jump from 6,000/600 lbs to 8,000/800 lbs. For a system that would work well with those capacities we have the Strait Line part # RP66083 which has a tongue weight range of 400-800 lbs and features only sway control that works to fight sway before it starts.

  • 2015 Land Rover LR4 Trailer Icon Disappearing When Towing Trailer with LED Lights
  • It sounds like the 7-way on your 2015 Land Rover LR4 is not getting the signal that the trailer is connected at times, which you are correct, is due to the LED lights on your trailer, and the fact that they have such little power draw. That means the 7-way is not "recognizing" the trailer connection when you are in reverse or signaling. The 7-Way Trailer Adapter for Towing Trailers with LED Lights # C57003 was a good idea, but if that did not work the next option I suggest is to add LED...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System For 2013 Land Rover LR4 And Airstream Trailer
  • You will need to check out your trailer hitch and see if you can use a weight distribution system with it. On most trailer hitches, using a weight distribution system will increase the towing capacity as well as the tongue weight capacity by quite a lot. For example, the hitch we offer that will work with your 2013 LR4 is part # 13456. This hitch has a 6,000-lb towing capacity with a 600-lb tongue weight capacity. With weight distribution those numbers jump to 8,000-lbs and 800-lbs tongue...

  • Rhino Rack Vortex Whistle Roof Rack Solution
  • The loud whistle you described normally means that the lower crossbar channel cover isn't in use. If you lost yours we have the part # RRM626 for a replacement that can be cut down to the correct length. If you have the strip still install it to cover up as much of the lower channel as possible and the whistle will go away.

  • Will the Prodigy RF Brake Controller Work with a 2012 Land Rover LR4 and Curt 7-Way Adapter
  • The only thing that the Prodigy RF brake controller # TK94FR requires to work is a functioning 7-Way trailer connector on the tow vehicle. Sometimes there can be pairing issues between the main unit and the handheld unit but there are ways to fix those issues so no worries. The RF will work with the 7-Way to 7-Way adapter # C57003 so no worries there either!

  • How To Gain Traction In Snow With ST225/75R15 Tires
  • I do not recommend siping or cutting thin slits across the surface of any trailer tires. because it could lead to a blow out eventually. The only other way to gain traction with the trailer tires is to add snow chains to them. The best tire chain option for the ST225/75R15 trailer tires is Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Pro Snow Tire Chains part # TH04115255 because of their diamond pattern and convenient installation. The diamond pattern will give you more coverage and traction the the...

  • Troubleshooting 7-Way to 5-Way Adapter Where Stop/Turn Circuits Arent Active
  • First thing you will want to do is use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to test the stop/turn circuits of the 7-way you have on your vehicle. It sounds like maybe those circuits are shorted out and that is why it seems like the adapter # A75TB isn't working properly. If this is the case you will want to check the conditions of the wiring on the back of the 7-way as well as check for and clean any corrosion you find on the 7-way pins. The next step will be to connect the # A75TB to...

  • How to Determine What Wheels Snow Chains Should Be on For a 2013 Land Rover LR4
  • Ideally you would want to put snow chains on all 4 wheels of a vehicle, this will give you the best traction for braking, turning, and accelerating. Otherwise, if one set of chains is used you would then want to put them on the primary drive wheels of the vehicle. Which in your case should be the rear wheels. However, you should check the owners manual of your vehicle for restrictions and snow chain usage recommendations as well.
