Expert Answers about Chevrolet Van


  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 1984 Chevy Travel Craft Motor Home
  • For your 1984 Chevy Travel Craft Motor Home, I recommend the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703. This trailer hitch receiver will bolt or weld-on to your frame and give you a hitch rated for 3500 lbs towing and 350 lbs tongue weight maximum. If you will be using a bike rack or cargo carrier, you will also need the support strap # 18050. I recommend looking at your owners manual for any manufacturer restrictions.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 1975 Chevy G20 Van
  • The best trailer hitch option we offer for a 1975 Chevrolet G20 Van is the Multi-Fit Trailer Hitch part # 5350 which fits frames between 24"-46". It will require drilling but there are no bolt-on options. It has a 5,000 lb weight capacity with 500 lb tongue weight rating. Please note, this is a general application product and it is the responsibility of the installer to select a structurally safe location for attachment.

  • Sway Bar Recommendations for 1984 G30 Lazy Daze Motorhome Class C
  • For your 1984 G30 Lazy Daze motorhome the correct rear sway bar is the Roadmaster # RM-1109-121 and then for the front # RM-1109-131. The biggest improvement will be the rear bar. A front bar will help quite a bit too but the biggest improvement is always the rear bar since that's where most of the weight is.

  • Hitch Recommendation for a 1991 Chevy G30 Full Size Van
  • According to the research I did a G30 Chevy van is basically just a full sized van, so for your 1991 Chevy G30 van you would want the Draw Tite Hitch part # 41121 that you referenced as it has been confirmed to fit. If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with...

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 1985 Chevy G 30 Class C Motor Home with 5.7 Liter Engine
  • The most popular transmission cooler for the 1985 Chevy Van (G series) is # D13503 that you have referenced and it would be a good choice. Mounting it in front of the radiator is the second most efficient location, the most efficient being in front of the AC condenser core where it would get the most airflow whether the AC is working or not. I have included some links on transmission coolers showing a typical installation and more information in general. Given the size of your vehicle...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 1983 Lindy II RV on a Chevrolet Frame
  • I did a little research on your Lindy II RV and it was manufactured by Skyline. There are a lot of different motorhomes that were built on the cut-away van chassis, so the pictures you sent were extremely helpful. With the RV coming out that far from the rear axle, a hitch for the regular van won't work. We do however have universal-fit weld on hitches that you can have installed to allow you to pull your boat trailer. Depending on the drop you need from your frame to get under the...

  • Trailer Hitch Solution for 1983 Chevrolet G30 Box Van
  • Since your truck has a box van on it there is a solution for installing a hitch, but a custom fit one like the # C13016 would not work. I spoke to my contacts at Curt and Reese and the only styles of hitches that can be made to fit a box van like yours are multi-fit RV hitches like the # 41990 that has a 16k capacity. This is a weld on hitch that would require either the 7 inch drop brackets part # 4907 or the 16 inch brackets part # 4916.

  • Remote Engine Oil Cooler for a 1984 Chevy G30 Van Class C Motor Home
  • Provided you have space for cooler # D15604 you could certainly use it on your 1984 Chevy G-series van. The overall depth is 2 inches, width 13 inches, and height 4-9/16 inches. Or you could go with a remote cooler that has it own fan like # D15450. With this set up you are not limited to placing the cooler in the front of the vehicle. It could go anywhere there is space since it has its own fan. It is 4-5/16 inches deep, 12-3/4 inches wide, and 9-3/8 inches tall.

  • Trailer Wiring for a 1992 Chevrolet Van
  • To get your 1992 Chevrolet Van wired to pull a trailer, I would recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector, # C55338. This will quickly plug into the existing wiring without splicing or cutting. You will need to remove the interior trim panels to install, but once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will simply rest in the cargo area when not in use. If you need to pull a trailer that has brakes, then you will need to first install...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendations for a 1995 Chevy Full-Size Cargo Van
  • Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 41121 fits the full size 1995 Chevy vans like yours and does not require drilling or trimming for installation. It does not fit models with a step bumper and based on your picture you do not have a step bumper so that is not a problem either. I have included a link to the instructions for you. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4...

  • Dump Valve Recommendation for Fitting 3-1/2 inch and 1-1/2 inch Pipe on RV
  • So based on the picture you submitted and the dimensions you listed it looks like you need a dump valve that will fit into the 3-1/2 inch pipe (3 inch spigot) and then need a 1-1/2 inch pipe ot fit over your other valve (1-1/2 inch hub). The valve setup that covers that is the part # T18A as it has a 3 inch spigot and a 1-1/2 inch hub.

  • Replacement Converter for Magnetek 950 in 1990 Fleetwoood Bounder
  • Your Magnetek 950 is a much older 50 amp converter. The Progressive Dynamics part # PD9260C that you referenced would be a great replacement with a slightly higher amperage rating of 60 amps. This would be a decent enough bump in an amperage but not so much that your current wiring wouldn't work.

  • Towing Mirror Recommendation for 1995 Chevy G20 Van
  • We do offer some universal-fit mirrors that could work for you, but not a custom slip-on style that would work with the mirrors you described. The # CM10000-2 mirrors you'd looked at will only fit the chrome mirrors, not the ones with the black plastic housing. The K-Source # KS3891-2 is what I'd recommend. This universal mirror fits factory mirrors that are 4-1/2 to 11-1/2 inches tall. What really sets this mirror apart is the sturdy ratcheting straps that hold the mirror tightly in place...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 1968 Chevrolet Van
  • The best trailer hitch option we have for a 1968 Chevrolet Van is the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 41991-16. The reason that this is the best is because the width can be adjusted to fit a wide range of frames and the tall brackets allow you to clear the bumper and choose you receiver tube height. In regards to modifications, you will need to drill into the frame but this is going to be unavoidable to install a trailer hitch. The Curt Multi Fit Trailer...

  • Ultimate Jack # 322-RDJ-2K Compatibility with 22 Foot Travel Trailer
  • The Ultimate Trailer Jack # 322-RDJ-2K is rated for a tongue weight of 2,000 lbs. As long as your 22 foot travel trailer has a tongue weight less than that amount you will be fine to use this jack. Most trailers have a tongue weight that is 10-15% of the total trailer weight, so based on that your trailer could be up to 13,225 lbs total weight and you'd be good. This jack does not come with a foot plate, so I recommend # JF-101BK which is rated for up to that same 2,000 lbs and can be...

  • Correct Rear Anti-Sway Bar for a 1993 Rockwood Frontier Class C Motorhome
  • According to my research, your 1993 Rockwood Frontier Class C Motorhome is on a 1993 Chevrolet G30 Chassis. If this is the case then the correct rear anti-sway bar for you is the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar for Motorhomes part # RM-1109-121. If you can provide me with the VIN of your motorhome I would be happy to confirm the above for you.

  • Can I Carry Both a Bike Rack and Cargo Carrier On The Receiver Of My 1994 Chevrolet Van?
  • I recommend the Gen-Y Phantom X Adjustable Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers for 2" Hitch # GY59VR. This will give you the ability to carry up to 700lbs of tongue weight and will spread out your Thule bike rack and a 60x24 etrailer Cargo Carrier # e98874. Be sure not to exceed the vehicle or receiver weight capacity on your 1994 Chevrolet Van. The etrailer Cargo Bag w/ Mounting Straps # 988501 will help to keep your cargo clean and dry while you travel. The Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch...

  • Converter/Panel for Enclosed Trailer to Charge Battery and Power AC Lights
  • There may have be a converter panel/charger that was installed in the trailer that was used to charge the battery and provide the power source for the AC lights etc. I'm surprised it was removed from the trailer but for a replacement you could use the # PD4135K. You'd run your 12 volt trailer wiring circuit to the panel which would connect to the trailer battery and it would get a charge when connected to your tow vehicle.
