Expert Answers about Chevrolet Tahoe


  • Will the etrailer.com Cargo Carrier Fit On a Chevy Tahoe When Folded
  • The etrailer.com Cargo Carrier, item # e98874, will fit in the 2 inch receiver of the Chevy Tahoe. To determine if the carrier will fold when installed you will need to measure. I like to use a 2X4 or some other long straight item and place it against the farthest out part of the vehicle and hold it plumb (level). Once this is done you can measure the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest edge of the 2X4. If this measurement is less than 9-1/2 inches then there...

  • Can I Mount A Platform To My 2017 Chevy Tahoe Factory Rack
  • I do have a solution for you that will get a platform on the roof of your vehicle, but first let me answer some of your questions. I will start by informing you that Rhino Rack and Go Rhino are not affiliated companies. This means that the Go Rhino SRM 600, which is the item pictured in your question, will not attach to a Pioneer Platform. The Go Rhino SRM 600 is also not designed to fit your 2017 Chevy Tahoe. In addition, Rhino-Rack does not have a Backbone system that fits your 2017 Chevy...

  • How Would Brake Controller Install in 2021 Chevy Tahoe
  • If that part is available it would be through GM only. But you could also bypass needing a connector and just wire what you have found directly to a brake controller like the Brake EVN part # TK63VR instead. For this controller the black wire is the 12 volt power wire, red is stoplight circuit, blue is brake output, and white is ground.

  • Brake Controller & Installation Parts Needed for 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe with 4-Pole Trailer Wiring
  • We can get you all set with a trailer brake controller for your 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe. Since you already have a working 4-pole flat trailer harness all you'll need, apart from the brake controller itself, is our installation kit # ETBC7. For a versatile and easy-to-use controller that has been proven to be very reliable I suggest the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885. This controller will work perfectly with both standard electric drum brakes and also with electric-over-hydraulic braking systems. The...

  • Installing Tekonsha P3 90195 on 2021 Chevy Tahoe
  • You sure can! You'll just need the correct brake controller wiring harness, as the 2021 Tahoe actually has a connector under the dash instead of the blunt ended wires your 2021Tahoe used. For your 2021 Tahoe, you'd need the # 3064-P wiring harness which would plug into the tow package connector located behind the ODBII port and above the dead pedal as shown in the provided photo.

  • How to Select and Install Weight Distribution System on Trailer with Limited Frame Access
  • When a trailer has a V-nose design that blocks access to the frame rails, or tongue-mounted accessory items like propane tanks and trailer jacks the best way to install a weight distribution (WD) system is with bolt-on brackets that can be installed from just the outside of the frame. Reese part # RP58305 and Curt part # C17005 bolt on to the side surface of the trailer frame rails and can even be installed under a V-nose overhang, propane cover or tool box as shown in the linked photo....

  • What is the Difference Between Reese Strait-Line Trailer Weight Distribution Systems
  • The Strait-Line Weight Distribution Systems # RP66074 and # RP66084 are very similar. The difference is the shank that goes into the hitch receiver. The # RP66074 kit does not come with the shank included so it needs to be purchased separately. This is a cost savings only if you need a 2-1/2 inch shank like # RP54976 to fit your receiver so you don't purchase a 2 inch shank you don't need. Both systems have the same tongue weight capacity rating, 600 to 1,200 pounds, and the same gross...

  • Will the SportRack Aero Cargo Box Fit a 2011 Chevy Tahoe and Handle High Speeds for Long Periods
  • The SportRack Aero cargo box, # SR7018, will handle highway speeds for long durations provided it is mounted properly. It fits on crossbars no wider than 4 inches and spreads between 24 and 34 inches apart on center. Since this box uses u-bolts to mount, I do recommend checking that the knobs inside the box are tight when you make pit stops. The vehicle handling will seem different with a box on top, but this is normal with any box. Some vibration and wind noise is to be expected. I have...

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 2004 Chevy Tahoe with 5.3 Liter Engine
  • I recommend installing a transmission cooler to supplement, not replace, the factory cooler on your 2004 Chevy Tahoe. You will get better performance by adding a cooler rather than replacing one. On your Tahoe, you may also need the correct fitting, # D13035, to properly install a cooler. The coolers themselves are not vehicle specific, so you can use # D13504 that you have referenced. The cooler comes with all the parts needed for installation. I have included a link to a video review...

  • Carrying Four Kayaks On A 2003 Chevy Tahoe
  • Let's see if we can get you to the water safely using just one vehicle. The Thule The Stacker, part # TH830, will accommodate up to four kayaks; two per side. You will be using two sets of straps for each of the stackers, two for the stacker on the first crossbar and two for the stacker on the second crossbar. You will need a minimum cross bar spread, that is the distance between your crossbars, of 24". Your bars need to be wide enough for two kayaks on each side of the stacker with enough...

  • How to Find Replacement Mounting Hardware for a Grille Guard
  • To get the proper mounting hardware for a grille guard, you need to go to the page of your vehicle's grille guard and look at the "Replacement Parts Available For This Product" section. If there is separate mounting hardware for that guard, then it will be there. For example, the Aries Grille Guard - 1 Piece - Polished Stainless Steel, part # AA4043-2, is one of the grille guards compatible with the 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe. In the "Replacement Parts Available For This Product" section, it...

  • Curt Hitch Trailer Hitch for 2004 Chevy Tahoe
  • Since you mentioned valuing rust prevention the Curt hitch part # C13422 that you referenced for your 2004 Chevy Tahoe is the way to go. The Curt hitches have the highest quality powdercoat and we've also found that they have a bit higher quality control in general so that is why I recommend it for you.

  • How do I Setup my Reese 49912 Weight Distribution System with Rear Air Bags on my 1996 Chevy Tahoe
  • Both great questions! To the first yes you should re set your Reese Weight Distribution System w Shank part # RE94FR after installing the air bags like the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F2101. As for the second question you should hook up the camper to the vehicle and level it with the air bags. Then hook up your weight distribution system. This will help to aid in your air bags and the weight distribution system working together really well and not over doing the effect.

  • Recommended Slide On Towing Mirror For 2014 Chevrolet Traverse
  • We do have universal towing mirrors for your 2014 Chevrolet Traverse, but we do not have any custom fit mirrors available at present. I recommend the K-Source Universal Towing Mirror, part # KS3891. This mirror will clip to most factory mirrors, and has a quick-release button to make it easy to adjust or remove. Take a look at the attached product review video for this mirror. Another mirror you may want to check out is the CIPA Deluxe Door Mount Mirror, part # 11650. This mirror attaches...
