  • Availability of Rear View Camera System That Uses Factory Monitor for 2017 F-550 Lariat
  • We have two different camera systems that would replace the 3rd brake lamp assembly on the rear of your cab that would indeed utilize the factory display in the dash. The correct system for you will depend on if you have the 8 inch or the 4.2 inch monitor (measured diagonally). If you have the 8 inch monitor, use # 3460001 or # 3460002 if you have the 4.2 inch monitor. This being said, this part will only work if your truck has the rear-view camera at the rear of the truck. If it does...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System with Sway Control for 500-lbs Tongue Weight Trailer
  • The best way to choose a weight distribution system is based off the tongue weight of your trailer; ideally it will fall right in the middle of the prescribed tongue weight range of the system. Based off of the 504-lbs tongue weight you've measured, the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control - Trunnion - 6K GTW, 600 TW # RP66558 is a great choice and a much better fit than your 400/4000-lbs rated system. I really like that the Steadi-Flex is easy to install and,...

  • Solution for carrying canoe on the roof of a 2010 Ford Ranger single cab with 6 foot bed
  • You can always expect a reply from us here at Etrailer! I have a solution for you, however, there unfortunately is not a roof rack custom-made for the 2010 Ford Ranger standard cab. Instead, there are two routes that come to mind for you to haul your kayak on the roof. Option 1: Thule TracRac TracONE Ladder Rack w/ Cantilever - Fixed Mount - 800 lbs - Silver # TH27000XT-EX. This is a ladder rack with a cantilever that hangs over the roof, acting as a roof rack. With the three crossbars,...

  • Tapping into 7-Way on 2004 F-250 for Stop, Turn, Tail Light Signals for Headache Rack
  • Since you need to retain the use of the 7-way at your rear bumper for towing while having the same lighting signals available near the cab for your headache rack, one option to consider is using a 5th wheel harness such as # 41157 from Hopkins. This plug-in harness provides on one end dual round U.S. Car connectors in a Y-arrangement that allow you to tap into your existing 7-Way (while keeping all of its functions active for your tow rig). On the other end of the 8-foot cable is a standard...

  • Brake Controller Install Connector Recommendation for 2010 Ford E-350 Van
  • Actually all you need to install a brake controller in your 2010 Ford E-350 Van is the correct install harness part # 3034-P. Basically this plugs into the back of your brake controller and then plugs into the port under the dash of the van. If you watch the install video attached you can see a van just like yours having a brake controller installed.

  • Available RV Hitch for 2017 Coachman Mirada Class A Motorhome on Ford F-53 Chassis
  • All of the RV-rated trailer hitches we offer are the 2-inch size and the highest-rated among them are the adjustable frame-mount types like Curt # C13701. This hitch offers 2-inches of drop for its receiver tube to allow for better clearance with the RV exterior. The B&W custom hitch you referenced, part # BWHDRH25122, is not a fit for your F-53-based Mirada and only adjustable universal-fit hitches like the Curt BWHDRH25122are available. The Curt hitch is rated for 5K GTW and it can be...

  • Adapter for Reese 5th Wheel Hitch in Factory Tow/Prep Pucks on 2017 Ford F-250
  • Reese offers the # RP30156 Underbed Rail Adapter that's exactly what you'll need so you can continue using your existing Reese 5th wheel hitch. The adapter will drop into the existing pucks (a small height adjustment to the adapter might be needed) and then lock into place. You'd then attach your Reese Hitch to the adapter, just like you would to regular bed mounted fifth wheel mounting rails. If you'll watch the included video, you can see how the adapter works. If you don't already have...

  • Availlability of 8 Inch Wide TorkLift Locking Battery Box to Accommodate 2 Batteries
  • The closest offering we have would be the Torklift Power Armor Locking Battery Box, part # TLA7708R which measures 8-3/16 x 23 x 13. If you were to take an angle grinder and take a small bit of material off of one of the rails, the box could be made to fit pretty easily. Other than the 60 inch # TLA7710R box you mentioned, this is your best bet for a metal locking box. I've linked you to a product description video featuring the battery box I mentioned above.

  • Are Tail Light Connectors Only Available By Themselves for Trailer Wiring on a 2013 Ford Escape
  • The connectors from any trailer wiring harness are not available by themselves. You could buy the harness and cut them off but if you were to buy it you might as well install that one and return the hardwire harness to the dealer. Or I could help you install the hardwire harness. It is actually pretty easy. You just need a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to test the vehicle tail light wiring. On the driver side you will need to find the left turn signal wire and the running light wire....

  • Is Sidewinder Pin Box Needed When Towing Truck with 5-1/2 ft Bed
  • If you knew for sure that you'd never need the ability to make a super tight turn you might be okay with a standard slider and a truck bed that is 5-1/2 feet long. But for most people it's just not possible and a Sidewinder will be the best route. Since your pin box is an RBW 7028 the correct Sidewinder is the part # RP61412. Using a custom wedge will make using the Sidewinder easier too. The correct one is the part # 30850. This is highly recommended over the universal wedge. In general...

  • Availability of Towing Mirrors for 2011 Ford Ranger Sport
  • You will need to use a universal towing mirror like the Dual-View Clip-On Towing Mirror # 11953.

The clips will adhere to the plastic housing of the mirror, and there is a strap that will cross the back of the mirror to clamp the towing mirror to your original mirror.

  • Is There a Manual to Electric Conversion Kit for HappiJac Model 4160
  • There is another solution, but unfortunately there is not a manual to electric conversion kit for the HappiJac 4160. You would need to upgrade your jacks to the HappiJac Electric Truck Camper Jack System # LC736514-ELKIT. The Manual-to-Electric Conversion Kit for HappiJac Truck Camper Jack Systems # LC733960-182524 is only available for the 4220 and 4820 jacks. There is a strong likelihood the jack would fail if used on a different jack/model. The reason it will not work for your 4160...
