Yes, you could use the Pollak 2-Pole Trailer Wiring Connector and a 4 gauge wire to power a small winch as long as the wire gauge for the winch is not thicker than 4 gauge. Since the winch is small, it likely uses 8 or 10 gauge wire, so you should be fine.
I have attached a help article that explains different methods for wiring an electric winch for you to check out. view full answer...
It is not recommended to supply power to a brake controller from anything other than the vehicle battery or a dedicated fuse in the fuse box. When the brake controller is sending power to the trailer brakes, it will draw approximately 2 to 3 amps for each brake assembly. If the brake controller is tapped into another fuse, the additional amp draw on that circuit could blow that fuse and cause other damage to the vehicles electrical system.
The brake controller will not drain your vehicle... view full answer...
On your 2007 Chevrolet Suburban there are two wires under the hood that have to be connected to make the tow package functional, one is the power wire to the brake control and the other is the battery charge line to the 7 way connector.
These wires are both Red/Black with eyelets on them. They are coiled up under the hood and will need to be connected to the under hood fuse box. One of the wires is located between the under hood fuse box and the left (driver) side fender. The other is... view full answer...
I assume by Tahoe you are referring to a 1986 Chevy Suburban and you can use the Erickson Big Bed Junior Load Extender # EM07605 so long as you are comfortable with the rear of your Suburban being open.
There are some measurements you should be aware of to ensure you have the proper clearance; the Load Extender # EM07605 will extend 4 feet from your your hitch receiver and can adjust in height from 17" to 24".
To use the extender you also need Pin and Clip # PC3 to secure it to your hitch... view full answer...
You will not need to add safety chains to attach your vehicle to the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1.
Like you mentioned, the ratcheting wheel straps are going to be what secures your vehicle to the dolly. The dolly does come with safety chains, but those are for the dolly itself and attach to your motorhome.
I have added links to a couple video reviews for you to check out as well of the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1. view full answer...
At this time there is not an installation video of the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-204-40 available for your 2001 Chevy Suburban, but the process is going to be fairly easy and straightforward. These jounce style springs will replace your current jounce bumpers (bump stops) and are installed in that spot. So the installation process is really just jacking the truck up, removing the old bumpers and replacing them with these.
The SumoSprings also come with a detailed set... view full answer...
In order to wire your 2008 Chevrolet Suburban with the Voyager brake controller part # 39510 you need to attach:

2 The Dark Blue wire from the tow package goes to the Blue wire in the Brake Controller.
3: The Light Blue wire in the tow package goes to the Red wire in the Brake Controller.
4: The White wire in the tow package goes to the White wire in the Brake Controller.

Welding the hitch to your bumper is one solution. However there's a saying about thieves that goes, "a determined thief with enough time and opportunity always gets what he wants."
It's a sad reality, but in your case if a thief had the necessary tools to remove the RV Bumper Hitch part # E-100 and was willing to remove your hitch there wouldn't be much else that would stop him from getting your bikes or rack. view full answer...
The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 brake controller, part # 90885 is an excellent brake controller that I'd highly recommend. It's one of our best sellers, and is the controller I find myself recommending most often. The controller is very easy to use, and is extremely popular with our customers.
You won't need a wiring adapter, because the tow package wiring terminates in bare ended wires under the dash, between the steering column and the emergency brake. Look for a bundle of wires with a white... view full answer...
On your 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, if you already have the factory 7-way connector at the rear of the vehicle, then all you will need will be the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller, # 90195.
The controller includes the pigtail wiring harness you will need to install the unit. The wires that you will need to connect are located under the driver's side dash. Review the attached installation video. At the 2:01 mark, our tech will show where the blunt wires are located and how to install the P3 to... view full answer...
It sounds like your current brake controller adapter looks like the # 3015-P which is needed to plug into your 2004 Chevy Silverado's port. The brake controller (P2 or P3) will include a universal wiring harness that will connect to all the connections needed, so you will not need another adapter if your current adapter isn't actually the # 3015-P and doesn't fit, you will just use the included harness and butt connect to your current adapter.

While we don't have specific fit info for the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler # D13960 that you referenced the dimensions of this cooler would pretty easily fit the available space you have. This cooler measures 13" Wide x 10" tall x 5-5/8" deep but what's really great is that even if for some reason it didn't fit there since this has a fan on it you could really install it about anywhere and the fan would pull enough air to make it efficient still. view full answer...
The Tekonsha P3 brake controller part # 90195 can fit your 1994 Chevy Suburban but there isn't a plug and play wiring harness for your vehicle as it was not equipped for this. So instead you'd need to start with a 4-way if you do not have one yet like with the part # C55319 and then convert it to a 7-way with the part # ETBC7 and you'd be set.

The power supply wire you are looking for should be taped up on the cab side of your junction box. Some times it is tucked down and hard to see and has to be fished out.
If it is not there you can run a wire from the junction box into the cab and splice it to the black wire on the brake controller.

Chevrolet had a plug-in port for a brake controller harness for trucks and full-size SUVs, but they stopped doing that after 2006. There should be a bundle of wires tucked up underneath the dash held together with a tag. The tag lists the functions of the wires on it. You will need to splice the brake controller wires to the tow package wires by functions.
On the controller, red is input from the brake switch, the white wire is ground, black is 12-volt power, and blue is output to the... view full answer...
Wiring a brake controller no the 2007 Chevrolet Suburban should not pose that big of an obstacle. The wires for the brake controller are under the dash and fairly easy to find (see link) and there is a plug, located above the spare tire, which is used to install the 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness, item # 30955, at the rear of the vehicle.
If your vehicle does not have the factory wiring already connected you will also have to make two connections under the hood to complete the brake controller... view full answer...
You will need to use a circuit tester, item # PTW2993 if needed, to test the wires exiting the trailer to figure out the wiring configuration with the trailer hooked up to the truck and the running lights on.
You will probably find that you have taillight power on one of the green wires and no power on any of the other wires. In this case you would wire the two green wires to the power wire coming from the clearance light. You would then need to wire the two white wires coming from the... view full answer...
When we measured the bolt hole distance, we found that they were 4-1/2" apart on center for the Demco Spare Tire Carrier for up to 4" Trailer Tongue - Black # DM15851-76.
As far as vertically, that actually doesn't matter as much, and the reason is, while it comes with 5-1/2" long, 1/2" bolts that will definitely fit a 4" tube, you can use longer or shorter bolts, they just need to be the same 1/2" diameter. view full answer...
It sounds like someone may have had a brake controller installed in your 2012 Chevy Suburban and left the connector that they wired to the vehicle for the brake controller. Most likely they just unplugged the controller and left the connector wired. Does the connector have four wires that are black, white, red, and blue? If so, then I am assuming correctly.
Without seeing the connector it's hard to say what brand was there and what controller would plug right into it, but the P2 part #... view full answer...
The blue wire on the Tow Ready Wiring Adapter, # 20036, is spliced into the reverse wire of your 1999 Chevy Suburban with the included quick splice. The easiest place to connect to your reverse light is right behind the taillights.
You will want to gain access to the reverse light wiring that goes into the taillight assembly. On your 1999 Chevy Suburban if you open the rear doors there should be 2 screws located by the rear door hinge. One of the screws is high and the other is low. If... view full answer...
