  • Whats The Difference Between The Two Different Thule Hull-A-Port Kits?
  • The difference between Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier # TH849000 and # TH849000-97 is the mounting hardware. # TH849000 comes with hardware to secure it to any Thule crossbar via T-Slot and the other type of Thule Hull-A-Port # TH849000-97 is strictly for a square bar roof rack systems or crossbars with T-Slots. If you were wanting to put the Thule Hull-A-Port # TH849000-97 on the roof of your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon touring with flush rails you'll need the Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars...

  • Why Are Trailer Tires Wearing on Outside Edges
  • Trailer tires often wear on just the outside of the tire when they are not fully inflated to their maximum psi. With trailer tires you want to inflate them to the maximum psi, which you can find on the tire's sidewall; for example the Westlake Trailer Tire # 274-000012 has a max 65 psi. Doing this will give you the best performance, allowing the tire to wear slower and evenly. If you need new tires I have added a link to our entire selection of tires to check out as well as a link to...

  • Is Bias Tire and Wheel for Tracker Pontoon Boat Trailer Good for Highway Travel
  • The Kenda Loadstar 205/65-10 Bias Trailer Tire w/ 10" Solid Center Wheel - 5 on 5-1/2 - LR C # AM3H453 you referenced will work just fine for highway travel. We generally recommend going with radial tires for extensive highway travel, but because I assume you have a Tracker pontoon boat trailer, this tire and wheel is going to be the direct replacement you need. I do recommend you make certain you keep the tire inflated to its maximum 50 psi to ensure the best performance but it will be...

  • How Much Does Hitch Extender Reduce Tongue Weight Capacity
  • The answer is actually pretty simple, because using any type of hitch adapter, including a hitch extender, reduces the capacity of your trailer hitch by 50 percent, and that includes both the towing capacity and the tongue weight capacity. I am not certain what the tongue weight capacity of the hitch on your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 is, but using the Curt Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches - 14" Long # C45795 or the Curt Hitch Extender for 2" Receivers -18" Long # C45796 will reduce that...

  • Is the Pace Edwards 311-SWC95A17 SwitchBlade Hard Aluminum Retractable Tonneau Cover Lockable
  • The # 311-SWC95A17 Pace Edwards tonneau cover you refer to isn't in of itself lockable, but because the cover only opens from the underside as long as the truck tailgate is locked the tonneau cover will be secure. If you click the provided link, you can see a product description video featuring this cover. I've also linked to an installation video that you might find helpful.

  • 5,200 Lb Timbren Axle-Less System With Compatible Hub, Drum and Electric Brakes
  • The Warner-style brake assemblies are no longer made and replacement parts are essentially non-existent at this point, so really your best option is going to be replacing your hub and drum as well as brake assemblies. You may also need to weld on a new brake mounting flange, which will be determined by the diameter of your axle. In order to find the correct replacement hubs for your trailer you need to know the weight rating of your axle, and also what bearings your current hub has. You...

  • Best Way to Determine Axle Capacity on Trailer
  • The best way to assess axle capacity is by measuring the diameter of the axle tube. I recommend using digital caliper to do this and you can use the following to find out what the typical capacities of an axle are per their diameter: - 1,000-lb - 2,000-lb Axles: 1-1/2 inch - 1-3/4 inch diameter - 3,500-lb Axles: 2-3/8 inch diameter - 6,000-lb - 7,200-lb Axles: 3 inch diameter - 8,000-lb Axles: 3-1/2 inch diameter - 9,000-lb Axles: 4 inch diameter - 10,000-lb Or more axles: 5 inch diameter

  • Does Odometer on 2012 Hyundai Elantra Manual Transmission Record Mileage When Towed
  • Late model cars with electronic dash displays generally do not record towed miles since the key is typically in the off position. With the key off such electronic circuits will not have power and so they will usually not record mileage when the car is flat towed. If your car is an exception to this general rule you can find out by recording mileage before and after a flat towing trip.

  • Is Husky Brute Electric Trailer Jack HT87248 UL-Listed
  • The Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack - Drop Leg - A-Frame # JET-3000NG is rated for 3,000lbs That means you can use an electric jack with a capacity on the lower side which is great because it will save you the expense that often comes with higher-capacity jacks. For this I recommend the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack # JET-3000NG because it offers a combination of being easy to use and having more than enough power to quickly raise your trailer. It offers 10" of travel...

  • The Kat's Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap for Series 24, 24F, 27, 27F, 74 Batteries - 125V - 80 Watt # KH22200 is not thermostatically controlled so you would need to put it on a timer if you were wanting it to kick on/off automatically. The manufacturer recommends starting the heater 1-2 hours before you plan on cranking the engine. You can find an outlet timer at your local hardware store if you want to go that route.

  • Can You Leave Your Bike Rack On Your Car Year Round
  • Yes, you can keep your Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 on the back of your car year-round, however your bike rack will be subjected to the elements and more than normal wear and tear.

  • Reasons For Choosing A Kenda Trailer Tire Over Other Brands Available
  • The Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15 Trailer Tire # AM10303 actually doesn't have many drawbacks. This is a radial tire, so it is great for long distance highway use. The Load Range E means it is rated up to 2,830 pounds at 80 psi and the M Speed Rating means it is also rated up to 81 miles per hour. The only "downside" I can give is that their is no roadside assistance available with it. With that said, the Westlake ST225/75R15 Trailer Tire # LHWL304 will also be a radial tire, is also rated...
