  • What Snow Tire Chains Are Recommended For A Mercury Montego FWD With 225/55R18 Tire Size
  • Before buying snow tire chains, you will want to check your owners manual or with the Mercury dealer to determine if you can install snow tire chains on your Mercury Montego, or if there are any limitations.

Since your vehicle is front wheel drive you will want to install them on the front tires. These...

  • Will the C12232 Class III Trailer Hitch Fit with Factory Dual-exhaust on a 1998 Mercury Sable
  • I spoke with my contact at the manufacturer to make sure there were no issues with the factory dual exhaust on the 1998 Sable and found that you should have no trouble installing the hitch on your vehicle. You will need to temporarily lower the rear exhaust though. The installation instructions (see link) are clear and easy to follow. In addition to the hitch, you might also need the following to complete your towing set-up: Trailer Wiring Harness, # C55343 if you have the wagon and #...

  • Can a Different Ball Mount be Used on a Class I or II Trailer Hitch
  • There are other ball mounts that will work with 1-1/4 inch hitches. However, on Class I and II trailer hitches such as # C12232 you are supposed to only use the ball mount specified by the hitch manufacturer or it voids the hitch warranty. The use of a different ball mount is an at your own risk type of situation. I have linked the ball mounts we carry for 1-1/4 inch trailer hitches.

  • Measuring to Find the Correct Ball Mount Rise and Drop
  • When you measure for a ballmount, you will want to measure from the ground up to the flat bottom part of your coupler, not inside of it. The 2-3/4 inch rise provided by the recommended ball mount would work just fine for you. That part number has been discontinued, but # EBMK4 will be a fit.

  • Can you Upgrade the 1974 Shasta Camper's Rims
  • I was unable to find what kind of clearance and recommended rim size of the 1974 Shasta Camper. As such, I do not recommend upgrading your current rims to 15". I would suggest sticking with the 13" rims. If you let me know why you are wanting the upgrade, I can help you find what you need. For example, if it's because you want the camper to sit higher, we can perhaps make some improvements to the axle. If you decide to stay with the 13" rims and tires, you will need to know your tire...

  • 2 Inch Hitch For 2003 Mercury Mountaineer With 1-1/4 Inch Hitch
  • A 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch hitch adapter is not available for towing, those are for accessories like bike racks only.

The good news is there is a hitch designed to fit directly under the OEM hitch so you don't have to remove it, and what you'd need is the following: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e55KR If you also need a 4-way wiring harness the correct part is the Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM40655.
