  • Comparing Curt Spectrum and Redarc Tow-Pro Brake Controller for 2018 Toyota Tundra
  • Both the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR and the Curt Spectrum # C51170 Trailer Brake Controller offer a sleek OEM design that gets away from the traditional knee knocker mounted options that take up a lot of space in the cab. Between these two brake controllers though I do recommend going with the Redarc # RED44FR for a couple of reasons. The first reason is an aesthetic one. One of the main benefits of both controllers is the subtle design that tries to blend in with the interior of...

  • What Angle Should Prodigy P3 Brake Controller be Mounted at When Installed in 2018 Toyota Tacoma
  • When you go to install the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 in your 2018 Toyota Tacoma the controller has to be level from side to side and face directly towards the rear of the vehicle so that the inertia sensor of the controller can get an exact reading on how much braking pressure you are applying and then apply a relative amount to the trailer's brakes. The install harness you need then is the part # 3031-P which plugs into the back of the controller and then into the port under the dash of...

  • Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2007 Toyota Camry Sedan
  • For your 2007 Toyota Camry the roof rack I recommend is the custom-fit Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA118B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK114 because this rack gives you aero shaped crossbars that will create minimal wind noise, will install easily, and other similar quality roof racks it is priced much better. I attached an install video for this rack on a similar 2016 Toyota Camry as well. Then for a 2-kayak carrier I recommend the Yakima JayLow # Y04073 because it is a J-style carrier...

  • Finding Brake Circuit for Wiring Third Brake Light to Truck Bed Camper Shell
  • Getting a dedicated brake signal for your 2019 Toyota Tundra for a canopy is typically done by tapping into the the third brake light circuit on the cab of the truck or the brake light circuit that is at the taillights. There isn't a wire or circuit readily available for this on your truck but if you really don't want to tap into the vehicle wiring the other solution you have is the Roadmaster Universal Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751000 which you'd install at the brake pedal and wire to...

  • Ladder Rack for my 2015 Toyota Tundra with the Deck Rail System
  • I have really good and very similar option for you. But there are no adapters to connect the TracRac to the Deck rail system. Instead using the Yakima OverHaul HD Truck Bed Ladder Rack for Toyota/Nissan Utility part # Y01151-5868 will get the job done. It attaches directly to the deck rail system and will give you a 500lb. capacity. The kit contains Toyota/Nissan Utility Track Adapter Kit for Yakima OverHaul HD partt # Y01168 Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack Uprights...

  • Ladder Rack and Kayak Carrying Solution for 2010 Toyota Tundra With BakFlip G2 Tonneau Cover
  • We have the perfect solution for you. The Adarac ladder rack from ACI installs atop the bed side rail, using the stake pockets as attachment points. Because your BAK BAKFlip G2, tonneau cover leaves the top of the bed side uncovered, it will be compatible. Due to the style of tonneau you have, you'll want a ladder rack with uprights that extend at a 90° angle to the bed side so the uprights won't interfere with the cover folding up against the rear of the cab. This is an economical solution...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2016 Toyota Corolla to Carry a Kayak
  • I'm glad we were recommended and we can absolutely set you up with an easy to install and use roof rack and kayak carrier for your 2016 Toyota Corolla sedan. It is also really smart to go with a roof rack because transporting a kayak on a sunroof with foam blocks is pretty risky. The roof rack I recommend for your '16 Corolla consists of: - Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420 (Black) OR # TH711400 (Silver) - Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710501 - Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp...

  • Weight Distribution for 2020 Toyota Highlander Towing Trailer with 360 lb Dry Tongue Weight
  • For the tongue weight you mentioned of 360 lb dry the Curt weight distribution system # C17052 would be rated too high and would give you a pretty harsh ride quality. The # C17051 with it's range of 600 to 800 lbs would be a much better option once your trailer is loaded and would have a higher tongue weight.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation/Comparison for 2018 Toyota RAV4 to Carry Yakima OnRamp E-Bike Rack
  • Yes, both the Curt hitch part # C13149 and the etrailer # e98864 that fit your 2018 Toyota RAV4 will work great with the Yakima OnRamp E-Bike Rack for 2 inch hitches # Y36FR. Another great option is the Curt # C13406 which is more hidden than the option mentioned as only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper. It does a have a more in depth install as a tradeoff though.

  • For your 2015 Toyota Sienna the best trailer hitch option is the etrailer part # e98853 which has the best towing capacity and is mostly hidden which also allows it to have the best ground clearance. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. For trailer wiring you'd want the part # 118498 for if you have an SE model or the # 118648 for if you have a non-SE.

  • 2020 Toyota Highlander Platinum Trailer Wiring
  • I have a good solution for you but the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package part # 56042 has not been confirmed to fit your 2020 Toyota Highlander. They may change this in the future but as of April 2020 there are no custom fit wiring harnesses available for the Highlander. I instead recommend using the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 119250KIT this kit is the only confirmed kit for your highlander that does...

  • Recommended Brake Controller and 4-Way/7-Way Connector for 2018 Toyota 4Runner w/Tow Package
  • The brake controller that I recommend for your 2018 Toyota 4Runner with the Tow Package is the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR because of how easy it is to use, the versatility in mounting locations, and the wide variety of towing applications it can accommodate. To connect this to your 4Runner you just need the adapters # 3040-P and # 331-TPH-017. The control box for the Tow-Pro Elite is able to sense the motion of the vehicle in any orientation and then the extra slack in the wiring harness...

  • Roof Rack and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2017 Rockwood Freedom 1640ltd Pop Up Camper
  • For pop up campers like the 2017 Rockwood Freedom 1640ltd that you have the SportRack roof rack part number # SR1020 that you referenced is just what you need. It will fit the roof of the camper and then give you the ability to carry a few bike racks. The Thule roof bike rack part # TH599000 would then be a great option for a bike rack as it it can fit your adult and kit bikes and lets you keep the front wheel installed on the bikes. I attached a review video for this rack as well.

  • Recommended Front Hitch for 2018 Toyota Tundra
  • The Curt Front Mount Hitch # 31198 and the Draw-Tite # 65080 for your 2018 Toyota Tundra are indeed just about identical in terms of their capacities and where they will mount on the truck. One thing that does differentiate the two models, and the reason I recommend the Curt, is the fact that the Curt # 31198 is made right here in the USA while the Draw-Tite hitch is made overseas. The Curt hitches are also known for their unique powder coat application which ensures a rust free hitch...
