It's going to take an existing four way we have and it's going to turn it into both a seven and four-way trailer connector.

Deka Battery Side Bolt Extender Installation - 2015 Chevrolet Express Van- Video
Hi there Express fan owners, today in our 2015 Chevrolet Express, we're going to be showing you how to properly add powered accessories to your side post battery using Deka's side posts battery extender. T.he problem we have with our factory bolts is that there's no room to add any ring terminals or additional wiring to it.If you try to, you can potentially damage the threads on your battery.If we go over here to our positive post, we've already got our extender in place, and you can see here, we've got plenty of room to add wires to power, any of our accessories.And we have no fear of damaging our battery.The post is made of brass. So it's going to be an excellent conductor.The bolt length itself is one and three-quarter inches, and this is important if your batteries in a tray, that's got a pretty tight fit. You don't want your battery positive, sticking out to work in ground on anything on the body.Let's go ahead and install it now, and we'll show you how to do that.We'll begin by removing our battery positive post.If you are worried that you may touch your wrench on anything grounded, you can take your negative terminal off first as this is recommended to keep you from accidentally shorting anything out.Once you've got it loose, we can just take it off here, and that will pull it back.Our bolt we'll then remove from the rubber covering, maybe helpful to use a pick or a flat-bladed screwdriver to assist you in getting out of there.Regardless of which vehicle you have, all your side posts are basically the same. They all use a very similar sized bolt and similarly shaped a rubber housing that keeps the bolt in place.And on your express van here, your side post, isn't going to be different than anything else.Your battery post is going to be inside of your rubber housing here, we'll just need to pop that out of there.So you can use a pick or a flat blade screwdriver to work your way behind the covering, and pop the bolt out.We'll now take our new one from Deka, slide it all the way in, and then we can reinstall it onto our battery.When tightening it down you want to make sure you don't over-tighten it as the lead material inside is a softer metal, so it is possible to over-tighten it.We'll tighten it down using a five, eight inch wrench or socket.The stud coming off of our post is one and three quarter inch length, which gives you plenty of length to add accessories and be able to fully tighten the nut on it.And the diameter of our stud is three eighth of an inch.So you want to make sure you purchase appropriately sized ring terminals to get all of your accessories mounted.If you need some ring terminals. So you can pick those up here at etrailer.com. more

Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2013 Chevrolet Express Van- Video
Today on our 2013 Chevrolet Express Van, we're gonna be installing Tekonsha's Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller, part number TK90160. And to help us complete this installation, we'll be using etrailer's universal installation wiring kit, part number ETBC7. This brake controller's gonna provide you with proportional braking for your trailer. And unlike some brake controllers, it doesn't have to be mounted completely level, it can be mounted 90 degrees up or down, which gives you a lot more options on where you could mount your brake controller. On the brake controller itself, you'll have an LCD display to output whether it's connected or not. "NC" would indicate not connected and just a "C", like we have here, shows that we are connected. more

Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2010 Chevrolet Express Van- Video
Speaker 1: Today in this 2010 Chevrolet Express Van we will be having a look at, and showing you how to install the Tekonsha Primus IQ trailer brake controller part number TK90160.To ease your install we'll be using universal seven way trailer brake controller kit, part number ETBC7.Here's what our brake controller looks like installed. Now what's great about this brake controller, is that this is a proportional brake controller, which allows us to slow down smoothly, and safely when we're towing a trailer, and our brakes are being applied instantly versus with a timed delay brake controller, it's also not gonna give you a jerky ride like a time delayed brake controller would.Now the reason you're gonna want a brake controller such as this one is if you're towing a trailer that has electric brakes, you won't be able to control them without having a brake controller.Now what sets this brake controller apart from other proportional units on the market is not only is this a very high quality unit, but it's also a very simple one to use without a lot of overly complex features. This gives you the basic functions that you need in order to safely, and easily utilize trailer brakes.To our right we have our manual override, and what this does, this will apply our trailer brakes to the maximum level that we have set the further we press it in.The reason you want a manual override is because if your trailer starts to sway behind you, or starts to jackknife, you would want to slow the trailer down, not your vehicle, that'll make things worse. So by applying this, only the brakes on the trailer will be applied without you applying your vehicle's brakes.Over here to the left this is our gain adjustment knob. This knob here controls how much power is being sent to your trailer brakes. Right now if it's set all the way up you see our display reads at 11, and we start to roll it back it'll start to drop back down all the way down to zero, which means no trailer brakes being applied.General rule of thumb, you want to start it somewhere in the middle, so about five and a half will be ideal. more

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Installation - 2000 Chevrolet Express Van- Video
Speaker 1: Today on this 2000 Chevrolet Express van, we'll be having a look at and showing you how to install the Roadmaster rear anti-sway bar and axle bracket kit, part number RM-1109-175-00, in conjunction with the Roadmaster axle mounting bracket kit for Chevrolet Express van chasses, part number RM-590061-00.Here's what our sway bar looks like installed. There are many reasons you're going to want an aftermarket sway bar on your motor home. One is if your vehicle doesn't already have a sway bar on the back of it, such as this one, this is going to greatly reduce the amount of side-to-side sway in the back. So when we're driving down the road, by having our sway bar in place, if a semi we're to pass us, we won't be steering trying to keep our vehicle to go straight. This will allow us to keep the steering wheel more centered as we're driving in a straight line. Also, when we're going around the corners, we won't be having to counter-steer quite as much when we're leaving the corners because we're not having the body roll that we're used to having without having the sway bar in place.So for example, if we're turning left, we'll have more weight transfer to our right side and that'll cause the right end to dip down and the left side to pick up. more

Now, we first need to remove this panel right here. To actually remove the panel, you'll stick the flathead screw driver on the trim panel removal tool underneath the bottom side and pry outward or towards the front of the vehicle. Now, up inside this opening here, there's a piece of plastic that kind of lock things off. We're going to need to take a large flathead screwdriver and loosen that up a little bit so we can slide our wiring down past it. more

Today on this 2003 Chevrolet Express we are going to install part number ETBC7 brake controller install kit and we are also going to use brake controller part number 90185 from Tekonsha, the Prodigy brake controller. The first thing we will do is start off with the mounting bracket. The hitch that is on this vehicle already has a bracket installed on it so it is ready to accept our 7-pole bracket. What we noticed when we first tested it, the screws are kind of on the long side so it is hitting up against the bumper. We took the bracket that is on the hitch and we gave it a little pull and tilted it down a little to get some clearance for the bolts. With it tilted down, we can also put the bolts in either way if you want. It is kind of hard to put a screwdriver on top of this so that is why we will put the bolts in the threads facing up. Put a little washer on there, then our nut. Next we will get the 7-pole to 4-pole adapter ready to install but we will do that part on the work bench. 00:53 more
