  • Recommend Trailer Hitch for 2010 Ford Mustang V6 with Boss Rear Bumper
  • For your 2010 Mustang V6, you will need the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, part # 24840. The hitch will bolt up to the frame of your Mustang, but since you have a Boss rear bumper, additional trimming of the bumper fascia may be required. The Draw-Tite Hitch # 24840 is a Class I 1-1/4 inch hitch. You will want to make sure not to exceed the towing and tongue weight capacity of the hitch or vehicle as stated in the vehicle owners manual. If you will be using the hitch for hitch mounted accessories...

  • Receiver Size for Trailer Hitch on 2018 Ford Mustang
  • The only size of trailer hitch receiver for a 2018 Ford Mustang is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24928. This is likely because these cars aren't made for towing and don't have the support needed for a larger hitch, so the 1-1/4 inch is all that is available. Keep in mind that since this is a Class I hitch, your accessories all need to be Class I compatible as well, including a bike rack. So if your current rack is not Class I compatible...

  • Cargo Carrier For Class I Trailer Hitch on 2002 Ford Mustang V6
  • There is a cargo carrier that you can use with your 2002 Ford Mustang V6 that has a rise in the shank to combat low ground clearance, though a cargo carrier for a 2 inch hitch won't work for your Mustang. The reason for that is the only hitches that fit your '02 Mustang are Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitches, so you will need a Class I cargo carrier for your Mustang, which we do have. So for the hitch and cargo carrier, here is exactly what you will need for your 2002 Ford Mustang: - Curt Trailer...

  • Is a Spindle Washer Needed Between the Spindle Nut and Outer Bearing on Dexter 5 on 4-1/2 Hubs
  • Yes, there should be a washer of some type between the spindle nut and the bearing on your trailer. The washer protects the back side of the bearing from the edges and points on the back side of the spindle nut. There are several types of spindle washers available depending on the spindle configuration on your trailer. The Washer For 1 inch Spindle, # SW1000, is typically used on spindles that have a castle nut, like # 165686, and a cotter pin, # 165649. A D washer, # 5-23, would be...

  • Will Bike Rack Interfere w/ Tow Dolly when Using Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount w/ Receiver # D210
  • In a situation like this there are a lot of variables, like bike rack, bikes, tow dolly, car on dolly, etc, so there is no easy way to figure this out. It is going to take a bit of measuring and basically mocking the situation to see if a set-up will work for you while cornering. Let's start with the tow vehicle. Using the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount, # D210, and for this example I am going to use our Kuat Beta Bike Rack, # B202-2, the furthest bike is going to be approximately 30-1/2...

  • Recommendation for Lifting Fifth Wheel Trailer for Towing Fifth Wheel Level
  • You can do this by moving the axles from being above the leaf springs to below the leaf springs. The diameter of your trailer axle will determine the size of the parts that you will need to order. If your axle is 3 inches diameter, the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit, # K71-385-00, would be a great choice and if your axle is 2-3/8 inch diameter you could use the Over-Under Kit, # K71-384-00. These kits can be installed without welding but the manufacturer strongly recommends...

  • Could Magnaflow Quad Exhaust Tip be Painted Black
  • While we don't have a version of the # MF35228 in black you could pretty easily paint this black if you used a high heat black spray paint. Unlike exhaust components closer to the engine the tail pipes don't get hot enough to prevent paint from sticking around. If you paint headers for example the paint will not last as the metal just gets too hot. Exhaust tips are far enough away that the heat not as bad and a high heat paint will do really well.

  • Can a Trailer Hitch be Installed on a 2007 Ford Mustang GT
  • First, if you go through our fit guide for a specific year, make, and model vehicle, if you do not also select a specific trim level (if available) from the drop down menu it will show you all the hitches for all the trim levels. Some fit multiple trim levels so that is why you see it fitting GT and not GT. You can install a Curt trailer hitch # C11312 on your 2007 Ford Mustang GT as long as it is not a specialty GT model. The easiest way to tell, it fits the Mustangs with the V6, but...

  • Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for Beautiful Red 2013 Ford Mustang Covnertible
  • Definitely don't want to damage your Stang. The most popular trunk mount bike rack to fit your 2013 Mustang Convertible is the Saris Bones # SA805BL. It'll hold two bikes up to 35 pounds a piece.

  • Base Plates and Accessories Needed to Flat Tow a 1998 Ford Mustang
  • The only base plates I show listed for a 1998 Mustang are the Roadmaster XL Base Plates, # 466-1, that you have referenced. These base plates will not fit an SVT or Cobra model. Since you have a Blue Ox Rangefinder II tow bar, you would need an adapter to go from Roadmaster Base Plates to the Blue Ox tow bar. The correct adapter is the Blue Ox Rangefinder II to Roadmaster Bracket Adapter, # RM-037. You will also want to check the owners manual for the Mustang to determine if it can be...
