  • Would Air Lift Helper Springs for 2017 Kia Sorento Get Ride Height Back to Stock
  • The Air Lift 1000 helper spring kit part # AL29PD that you referenced does fit your 2017 Kia Sorento and will reduce the sag of the rear suspension when they are inflated and will get the ride height back to the original height.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2023 Kia Carnival w/ Side Rails
  • Sounds like you need a couple of crossbars. There is a set that will attach directly to the factory side rails of your 2023 Kia Carnival. This mounts directly to the side rails and has more than enough capacity for a cargo box. You will want the roof rack by Rhino Rack and it includes the following parts: Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA137B-2 Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Raised Factory Side Rails - Qty 4 item...

  • Weight of Curt and Draw-Tite Trailer Hitches for 2019 Kia Sorento
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch # C13195 for your 2019 Kia Sorento weighs in at just about 44 pounds while the Draw-Tite # 75908 is a bit lighter at 39 pounds. Both feature identical 5,000 pound towing weight capacities but the Curt # C13195 does have a higher tongue weight limit of 750 pounds compared to 500 pounds for the Draw-Tite model. Because of this and the fact that it's made right here in the USA I recommend the Curt option between the two for your Sorento.

  • Ground Clearance Measurement for Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75908 on 2019 Kia Sorento
  • The ground clearance and hitch pin hole to bumper measurements you referenced seeing on another answer page for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75908 were taken with the hitch installed on the 2017 model Kia Sorento. The slight changes on your 2019 model Sorento cause these measurements to differ with the same hitch mounted. Other variables such as tire size, rear cargo, etc can change these measurements a bit as well even within the same model year so it's important to...

  • How to Find the Tongue Weight on a 2022 Kia Telluride
  • When I looked up the online owner's manual for your 2022 Kia Telluride they have the max trailer weight ratings listed as 1,650 lbs for a trailer without brakes but 5,000 lbs for a trailer with brakes. Since vehicle manufacturers typically rate the tongue weight rating at 10% of the trailer weight I would assume you can carry up to 500 lbs for tongue weight on your vehicle but you really need to contact your local Kia dealer for confirmation since it doesn't look like they give a specific...

  • Ball Mount for Trailer Hitch Height of 12-1/2 inch and Coupler Height 19 Inches
  • The two dimensions needed to be compared when picking out rise/drop ball mount is the top of the hitch opening down to the ground as well as the bottom of the coupler lip on the trailer down to the ground when the trailer is level. Since you measured from top of the coupler you'd need to remove right at 2 inches from 21 so you'd have from 12-1/2 inches to 19 inches which is 6-1/2 inches. So the closest you can get to that is 7 inches of rise like the part # C45338 which would work great.

  • Torque Rating for the Installation Hardware of the Curt Hitch part # C11434
  • The torque rating for all of the installation hardware that comes with the Curt Hitch part # C11434 that you referenced is listed in the install instructions that I attached in a link to the right. Since we link the instructions directly from the manufacturer and they are subject to change we avoid posting the torque figures for liability purposes.

  • Recommended 1-1/4" Hitch for a 2012 Kia Sportage SX
  • Yes, it will! The Draw-Tite Hitch item # 36510 is confirmed to fit the 2012 Kia Sportage SX models with dual exhaust. Our installers have stated that the hitch comes in contact with the exhaust on the SX turbo models. This may result in the exhaust hangers needing to be bent to get the right amount of clearance. Other then that this hitch is custom fit and comes with all necessary hardware to complete the installation. The Draw-Tite Hitch item # 36510 is a class II hitch with a 1-1/4"...

  • Does the Curt Hitch C13420 Fit a 2024 Kia Telluride?
  • Yes, it does! The Curt Hitch item # C13420 does fit the 2024 Kia Telluride. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 750 lbs maximum tongue weight. I really like the Curt item # C13420 because the crosstube mounts completely behind your rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver visible. This not only looks better but it also helps with ground clearance. I have attached...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2024 Kia Sportage w/ Raised Flush Rails
  • Yes, we do! To attach a roof rack to the raised rails on your 2024 Kia Sportage you will need the Yakima TimberLine FX Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails item # Y28UV. This aero bar roof rack system has a 165 lbs capacity. The crossbars do not extend over the rails. I recommend adding the Yakima Same Key System item # Y07204 to prevent theft. A great perk of Yakima's products is you can buy larger lock core kits 6 item # Y07206 or 8 item # Y07208 and have the roof rack and other Yakima accessories...

  • Recommended Hitch and 7-Way Connector for a 2024 Kia Sportage
  • Congrats on the new vehicle! The Saris Door County Bike Rack item # SAR42RR requires a 7-way connector to power the lift function. To add one to your 2024 Kia Sportage you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they do not have just one available that will do the job. The first harness you'll need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C99DR. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Kia's wiring harness, which is located behind your tail lights. This will provide...

  • Can I Tow a Trailer with my 2017 Kia Forte EX
  • We do have the equipment to tow with your 2017 Kia Forte, which is primarily due to consumer demand rather than hard to find towing information. You are also correct that per the owner's manual (page 5-91) it states that Kia does not recommend using your vehicle for trailer towing. I can't recommend towing with this vehicle since the manufacturer says not to and we can't provide a towing vehicle weight capacity. I can provide the weight capacity of the # C11368 which is 200 pounds maximum...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Kia Niro HEV
  • There's no class II but there is a class III. For your 2023 Kia Niro HEV, the correct hitch is going to be the Curt item # C77NR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I checked with our vendors this is the only one available that will fit the HEV. A class III is better. It has a 2" receiver that will give you more options for accessories. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 119250KIT and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

  • The best hitch for your 2021 Kia Telluride is the etrailer Hitch item # e45ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the main crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" receiver exposed. This not only helps with ground clearance but it also looks better. The uhaul trailers use what is called a 4-way connector to power the lights. Depending on whether or not your Kia has the factory tow package will...

The towing capacity of your vehicle is 3,500 lbs and tongue weight of 350 lbs max from the manufacturer. This will be the limiting capacity even though the hitch receiver is rated higher.

  • Best Class III Hitch for a 2023 Kia Telluride
  • The best hitch for your 2023 Kia Telluride is the etrailer Hitch item # e45ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. The reason this is the best hitch is because it bolts directly to your frame and mounts above your muffler. This conceals the crosstube behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" x 2" receiver visible. This not only looks better but it also offers better ground clearance for going up or down steep driveways or boat ramps. The etrailer...
