Expert Answers about Dodge Durango


  • Front-Mounted Trailer Hitch & Cargo Carrier for 2001 Dodge Durango 2WD
  • I double-checked with Curt, Draw-Tite and Hidden Hitch for a front-mount hitch receiver for your 2001 Dodge Durango with 2WD. Neither Draw-Tite nor Hidden Hitch have a front-mount for your 2WD Durango but my contact at Curt confirmed that their 2-inch square tube hitch # 31080 fits all version of the 2001 Durango, including your 2-wheel-drive. The hitch bolts on using included hardware and it requires no drilling. The linked instructions and help article will list the basic tools you'll...

  • Available Towing Mirrors for 2014 Dodge Durango
  • We do offer replacement driver and passenger mirrors for your 2014 Dodge Durango, parts # KS60190C and # KS60189C, but there are no custom-fit towing mirrors for it. In this case you can use universal-fit types such as clip-on mirror set # KS3990, or a door mount # 11650. The door mirrors can give you a very wide rearview perspective on your trailer but can take some getting used to since they will mount away from your primary mirrors.

  • Least Visible Hitch for 2018 Dodge Durango
  • The three hitches made for your 2018 Durango include the etrailer model # e98901 which will be a little less visible than either the Curt model # C13182 that you referenced or the similar Draw-Tite # DT38MR. They all have visible crosstubes but the matte black finish on the etrailer model # e98901 makes it blend into the vehicle better than the other two. This hitch has a no-drill install that is rated only 3 out of 10 on the install difficulty scale. Please note that this hitch still...

  • 7-Way and Easy Install Brake Controller Recommendation for 2019 Dodge Durango R/T
  • You can install the Tekonsha 7-way part # TK22113 in your 2019 Dodge Durango R/T. It comes with everything needed including the brake controller wiring that you looked for under your dash as well. One really easy brake controller install solution I recommend is the Curt Echo part # C51180 which basically just plugs into an active 7-way and once synced with your smart phone is ready to tow.

  • Cost-Effective Hitch-Mounted Cargo Carrier That Provides Access to Vehicle Cargo Area
  • Any hitch-mount cargo carrier that includes a swing-away mechanism is going to be out of your price range. The Yakima Exo enclosed carrier # Y62VR includes the convenience feature of being able to swing away from the vehicle when loaded but since this feature requires very strong construction it also comes with a higher price and a substantial weight of about 100-lbs. I do not recommend trying to build a swing away carrier; any mishaps would expose you to both potentially lost or damaged...

  • Is There A Roof Rack That Can Be Used Interchangeably On 2018 Dodge Durango And 2018 Honda CR-V?
  • Yes there are roof racks that you can use on both of your vehicles. If your 2018 Dodge Durango has a naked roof then you can use Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2, Legs # RRRLKVA, and Fit Kit # DK299. If your 2018 Honda CR-V also has a naked roof then you can use the SAME Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2 and the SAME Legs # RRRLKVA, but you will need a different Fit Kit # DK284 for the CR-V. If your 2018 Dodge Durango has the factory roof rails then the only...

  • How to Get Most Out of Trailer Hitch on a 2005 Dodge Durango
  • All of the trailer hitch receivers that are designed for your 2005 Dodge Durango, like the Draw-Tite # 75162 you referenced, have a maximum tongue weight capacity of 600 pounds unless you're using a weight distribution. They increase to 900 pounds tongue weight with weight distribution, as long as your vehicle is rated that high. Since you're planning to tow up to 5,000 I recommend weight distribution anyway. Anytime your loaded trailer is at least 50 percent of the tow vehicle's weight...

  • Recommended Method to Transport 180-lb Worksman SBST-3CB Side-by-Side 2-Person Trike
  • We do offer a hitch-mount trike carrier that fits the 2-inch hitch on your 2005 Dodge Durango. The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Trike Carrier # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP will work with trike wheelbases up to 74-inches and trikes up to 100-lbs. I checked the Worksman website's specs for your SBST-3CB. Unfortunately they do not indicate the bike weight so I contacted them. The bike weighs about 180-lbs so unfortunately it is well beyond the capacity of any rack we offer. The folks at Worksman indicated...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for 2013 Dodge Durango
  • Powered kit will give you a safer harness that will protect the delicate taillight wiring of your Durango. The non-powered kit will be much easier to install but potentially could damage your vehicle wiring in the event of a short. The best solution I can make is the part # 118552. This is a powered unit that is custom fit for your vehicle. It also is made by the most reliable trailer wiring harness brand we offer.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch & Wiring for 2018 Dodge Durango
  • Yes, we do have hitches for your 2018 Dodge Durango. Of the three rear hitch options I recommend the USA-made Curt # C13182 because it offers easy no-drill installation using included hardware as shown in the included video. The hitch model # DT38MR from Draw-Tite that you referenced offers a less visible installation but will take a lot longer to install. If you want the least-visible hitch and you don't mind a more challenging installation then the Draw-Tite # 76196 is a great choice...

  • Towing Mirrors for a 2001 Dodge Durango
  • We do have universal towing mirrors that will fit your 2001 Dodge Durango but unfortunately there are no slip-on options available. The K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990 are what I recommend going with because they feature a clip-on design that is compatible with just about every mirror style out there (4-1/2" to 11-1/2" tall) and they have dual lenses for a customizable view behind you. We haven't tested these directly with an '01 Durango but if you check out the product...

  • Rear Exit Exhaust Pipes for a 1999 Doge Durango
  • The exhaust systems that we have for the 1999 Doge Durango, see link, follow the same path as the factory exhaust which does happen to be rear exit with a single pipe. To make any additional modifications you would need to take the vehicle to a muffler shop or a place that does customization on vehicles. If you are looking just for exhaust tips then we have several options available. I have included a link to the exhaust tip main page for you.

  • How to Pick Out Grease Seal for 2003 Coleman Cheyenne with Electric Brakes
  • To pick out a replacement grease seal you will need to measure the diameter of the spindle where the grease seal rides with a digital or dial caliper and then need to measure the hub bore where the current seal rides. With those two dimensions we can pick out the correct seal that you would need. I attached a link to a page that has all of the grease seals we carry. You will need to select your inner and outer diameter from the filters on the page and the correct seals will be listed. We...

  • Recommended OEM Style Concealed Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness for 2014 Dodge Durango
  • It sounds like you're looking for a hitch like the Draw-tite # DT38MR, which will install so that it sits behind the rear bumper and offers you a concealed cross tube for the OEM look you're seeking. If you need wiring to tow a trailer with, I recommend using the Tekonsha # 118617 because of the quality and durability of their converter boxes compared to some of the other harnesses. This wiring will tee into the harnesses behind your tail lights to provide you with a 4 way trailer connector...

  • Universal Towing Mirror Options for 2013 Dodge Durango Citadel
  • For your vehicle we have the universal-fit type towing mirrors you mentioned, such as the clip-on K-Source # KS3891 and the dual-view model # 11953. We do not offer custom-fit towing mirrors for your 2013 Dodge Durango Citadel. If you prefer a mirror that does not attach to the Durango's OEM mirrors we offer universal door-mount mirror # 11650 which will give you a wider field of view and more adjustment capability. All are sold as single units so order two to equip both sides of the vehicle.

  • Can 2000 Dodge Durango with 5.9 Liter be Flat Towed
  • I did some checking on your 2000 Dodge Durango and found that it is flat towable. If it's a 4 wheel drive model it's good to go as long as you follow the guidelines in the manual, if it's a 2 wheel drive you'll need to use a driveshaft disconnect. For a base plate kit you'd then want the part # 246-5. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar...

That hitch is Draw-Tite part # 75081 and it is confirmed to fit on the 2003 Dodge Durango. We also have the correct 4-pole wiring harness, part # 118334, installation of which is shown in the linked video.

  • Towing Mirror Recommendation for 2015 Dodge Durango
  • For your 2015 Dodge Durango, I'd recommend the K-Source Universal # KS3891 Clip-On Towing Mirror. The mirror uses ratcheting rubber straps that allow the mirror to securely attach to your factory mirrors, resulting in a nearly vibration-free fit. As you can see by looking through the customer reviews, the mirror is very highly rated. The mirrors are sold individually, so for a pair you'd need to order two of them. I checked with our towing mirror manufacturers, CIPA, Longview Mirror, and...
