Expert Answers about Chevrolet Blazer


  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Kit Recommendation for 2020 Chevy Blazer
  • The Curt trailer hitch part # C13418 is your best option for a trailer hitch for towing. This USA assembled hitch is very easy to install, has plenty of towing capacity and installs behind the rear bumper panel of your Blazer (see picture) so it's out of sight when you aren't using it. Then for trailer wiring we have the very easy to install 4-way kit part # 118720 which I recommend highly as well. I attached an install video for this kit and the hitch for you to check out as well.

  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver and Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer RS
  • I recommend our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e36YR as the best option for your 2024 Chevrolet Blazer RS. This has a simple bolt on design which does not require removal of the rear bumper structure like other manufacturers. The matte black finish provides for a clean factory appearance. Be sure to install the Curt 7-Way # C56326 when you install the receiver. This will allow you to connect to trailers with a 7-way or 4-Way by using an Adapter # PK12716. You will need a Mounting Bracket...

  • Can 2019 Chevy Blazer be Flat Towed and Parts Needed
  • I took a look at the owner's manual for a 2019 Chevy Blazer and on page 335 of the online manual it states "These vehicles may be dinghy towed from the front" so yes you can flat tow this vehicle! I do recommend checking out your copy of the manual which has some steps you'll need to follow to safely tow the car. In order to do this there are a number of parts, which I'll list for you: - Base Plate Kit: Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1735 - Tow Bar: Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar # BX7420 - Wiring...

  • What is Difference Between Suspension Kit for Tandem-Axle Trailers and K71-359-00
  • The Suspension Kit part # AP233 is more of a basic equalizer and shackle kit that uses standard thickness shackles. The Dexter Heavy Duty Kit part # K71-359-00 uses shackles that are very thick, comes with bronze bushings and all of the bolts are wet bolts which means you can easily grease them. If you want something that is the best and toughest option go with the Dexter. If you are trying to save some money and don't think you'll need the super heavy duty components go with the # AP233...

  • Can Dometic 320 RV Toilet Fit In Place of Thetford RV Toilets
  • The Dometic toilets can install in place of Thetford toilets pretty easily as we have confirmed that with Dometic. The Dometic adapter part # DMC64FR would attach to the mount that you have now. The Dometic 320 part # DOM27FR does not require an adapter and actually would attach directly to your current mount.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors For A 2024 Chevy Blazer
  • Yes, we do have add-on towing mirrors available for the 2024 Chevy Blazer. I recommend the CIPA Universal towing mirrors # 7070-2. These will clip on to the upper and lower edge of the factory mirror, with two straps that go around the back. It generally does take a few tries to get them perfectly in place, but once you do they will be very secure. The 7-1/2" long x 5" tall mirror face will give you superior visibility compared to other universal mirrors. I have linked a few review/ install...

  • Parts Needed to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2004 Chevy Blazer
  • Since your 2004 Chevy Blazer does not have any type of trailer connector you will first need to install a 4-Way flat connector, # 18252. Then you can use the 4 and 7-Way installation kit, # ETBC7, which comes with everything you will need to maintain the 4-Way and add a 7-Way. It also includes components to hardwire in a brake controller. Adding a 4-Way first makes it easier to install the 7-Way so that is the main reason you would install it first. If you decide you need a brake controller...

  • What Equipment is Needed to Tow 2004 Chevy Blazer 4X4 Behind a Motorhome
  • The most important guideline is what Chevy says about flat towing. Please check your owners manual for their procedures for flat towing. Our information from Remco states that if your Blazer has a manual transfer case it can indeed be flat towed but if your vehicle has an electronic transfer case, a driveshaft disconnect coupling will need to be installed before flat towing this vehicle. Please check with your owners manual to verify this information. In order to tow your 2004 Chevy Blazer...

  • Trouble Finding the Brake Controller Wiring Port on a 2019 Chevy Blazer
  • I do have an option for you but we have not yet gotten out hands on a 2019 Chevrolet Blazer therefore, have not had the chance to look for the brake controller wiring port either. I checked with both Tekonsha and Curt and it looks like they have not had the pleasure of doing so either. However, I was able find in the manual where it stated that, "Wiring provisions for an aftermarket electric trailer brake controller are included with the vehicle as part of the trailer wiring package. These...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2000 Chevey Blazer ZR2
  • Yes, the hitches compatible with a 2000 Chevy Blazer will fit all models of Blazers for that model year including the ZR2. For you application I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13020. This is a square tube design that is extremely sturdy and easy to install. If you will be towing with this trailer hitch receiver, I recommend the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55411 which will let you quick-splice into your...

  • Comparing Curt and Draw-Tite Hitch for 2019 Chevy Blazer
  • I highly recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13418 for your 2019 Chevy Blazer, and this is the one I would put on mine over the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76023. The reason why I recommend the Curt is because it is far easier to install than the Draw-Tite hitch, which requires the temporary removal of fascia and the bumper beam, as well as trimming your Blazer's fascia. Another reason I would choose Curt over the Draw-Tite is because of the Curt's advantage in capacities. The Curt's...

  • Base Plate Recommendation for 1983 Full-Size Chevy Blazer
  • You mentioned that you have an Blue Ox Avanti tow bar, so I guess you were wanting to reuse that tow bar if possible. I spoke with Blue Ox and that item has been out of production since 2006. We are not going to be able to make a recommendation that includes using that tow bar as we do not have any technical information to work from. The only base plates we have to fit your 1983 full-size Chevy Blazer are the Roadmaster # 108-1 for crossbar Style with Fixed Arms. I would pair that with...

  • 7 Foot 7-Way Extension Recommendation
  • I believe the closest thing to what you want would be the 7-Way Connector Loop # 20027. This product is 7 feet long and would act as an extension for your 7-way connectors. Although it is longer than you said you needed you could loop up the excess and run a zip-tie around it to give you the right length.

  • Recommended Base Plate Kit For 1987 Chevrolet Blazer Full Size
  • I may have another option for you, but Blue Ox does not offer a base plate kit for your 1987 Chevrolet Blazer Full Size. Currently the only base plate kit confirmed to fit your vehicle is the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # 108-1. This base plate will pair nicely with the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520. To complete your flat tow setup you would need the following parts if you do not already have them: Wiring # RM-15267 Safety Cables # RM-643 Supplemental Braking System...

  • Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Recommendation that Prevents Bikes from Rocking Back and Forth
  • A 4 bike rack may be more difficult to load just 2 bikes on because instead of arranging the bikes beyond one set of cradles, you would have 3 when loading the first bike, and 2 when loading the second. Most bike racks, including the Thule Hitching Post Pro, # TH934XTR, have anti-sway cradles that work to prevent the bikes from making contact with each other. Contact while loading the bikes can be minimized by taking care when loading. But what I recommend is a platform style bike rack...

  • Dowel to Dowel Dimensions of SnowBear 5Xm5 Universal Cross Member # SB324-060
  • The distance between the two dowels on the SnowBear 5Xm5 Universal Cross Member # SB324-060 is approximately 32-3/4 inches. This fits all models of SnowBear plows like what you have so it would work well for you.

  • Weight Distribution System Recommendation for 2003 Chevy Blazer
  • The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use. Once you know your tongue weight...

  • 2024 Chevy Blazer Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendations for Towing a Trailer
  • I recommend going with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e36YR for your 2024 Chevy Blazer because it has a matte black finish that has a better look and offers better protection than the standard gloss black finish we see with the other hitches. When it comes to wiring I recommend picking up the Curt T-Connector # C56325 and securing it next to your hitch receiver with the mounting brackets # 18144 and # C83DR. If you don't already have a ball mount then the Curt Towing Starter Kit...

  • Watersports Trailer That Will Fit Through A 5'8" Gate
  • The Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer with V-Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks - 800 lbs # MAL52FR has crossbars that are not meant to be removed. The crossbars measure 78" long and for that reason I recommend going with a different trailer that will fit your 5'8" gate without removing anything from the trailer. I would look into the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with J-Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks - 400 lbs # MAL93FR which has J-cradles for 2 kayaks just like the LowBed MicroSport. This will...
