- Which Line is Transmission Cooler Installed On For 2008 Ford Taurus
- When installing an aftermarket transmission cooler like the Derale Series 8000 # D13502, you will want to install it on the return line for your Ford Taurus. If you aren't sure which line is the return line, you can determine this by starting with the vehicle completely cooled off. Start the Taurus and put it in drive, apply the brakes firmly and then apply the accelerator so that the rpms climb, then put the vehicle back in park and turn it off.
When you then feel the two lines coming...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch And Wiring Recommendation For 2003 Ford Taurus
- I did some research and found that the maximum trailer towing capacity for a 2003 Ford Taurus is 1750 lbs. I recommend checking the owner's manual or with a dealership to make sure you do not exceed the towing capacity for your Taurus. You will also want to check the total weight of the trailer you want to tow. It should be weighed in its fully-loaded-ready-to-tow condition.
The trailer hitches we offer for your Taurus are either Class l or Class ll hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver...

- When a bike doesn't have a horizontal top tube there is an adapter that can be used that will attach to the bike that will provide an attachment point. The part # 64005 will attach at the seat post and at the steering stem and will provide an attachment point for a hanging bike rack.

view full answer... - Recommended Class II Trailer Hitch for a 2001 Ford Taurus Wagon
- I have a solution for you, but the 36216 hitch will not fit the 2001 Ford Taurus Wagon. I cannot recommend you modify a hitch to fit your vehicle because it will compromise the structural integrity of the hitch as well as not carry the same weight ratings. It also wouldn't be covered by a warranty as well as damage the frame of your vehicle, and is potentially life threatening if it falls off during transit. The best thing to do is sell your current hitch to offset the cost of purchasing...
view full answer... - Should Trailer Axle be Changed from a Normal Axle to a Torsion Axle on Home Made Tear Drop Trailer
- You can go to a torsion axle and different tires and wheels if you so choose. You have to consider what you are trying to accomplish by doing so to determine if it is worth the expense or not. Normally I would say you could change to a different tire size if there is clearance to do so but Harbor Freight trailers tend to have odd bearings and if changing the hubs is required to go to a larger size tire and wheel you may not be able to without changing the axle any way.
If you do change...

- Actually the Curt Hitch part # C12232 and the Draw Tite Hitch part # 36313 that you referenced are both very similar. They are basically two different manufacturers versions of the same hitch.
What gives the Draw Tite hitch the edge of the Curt hitch though is that it does not require a stabilizer strap like part # 18050 when used with a non-supported load like a bike rack like the Swagman XTC 2 part # S64670.
If you failed to use the strap you would void the warranty of the hitch so...

- For your 2013 Ford Taurus Police Interceptor, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class III - 2" 13552 is not a fit.

I have attached a video to help. There is not a Curt brand hitch confirmed to fit, but Draw-Tite will.

- What you described is a shorted out trailer wiring converter box. When all of the pins are hot all of the time that indicates that the box had an internal short and it needs to be replaced. The Curt harnesses are known to short out a bit easier than the Tekonsha kits like part # 118599 which is a fit for your 2014 Ford Taurus so this would be what I would recommend for your replacement.
Be sure to go over your trailer's wiring to determine if there are any obvious shorts on it's wiring...

view full answer... - Best Trailer Hitch & Roof Racks for a 2014 Ford Taurus
- The trailer hitch that I recommend going with for your 2014 Ford Taurus is the Curt # C13379 which is a Class III hitch that has a 2" receiver. You'll be able to use a wider variety of hitch accessories with a Class III receiver. I like the brackets and thicker powder coat on this Curt over what comes on the Draw-Tite which is why I recommend the Curt. If you don't already have a bike rack then I highly recommend the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU24FR which can carry up to 3 bikes and has a U-Shaped...
