  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2022 Ford Transit Connect
  • The best hitch option for your 2022 Ford Transit Connect is the Curt part # C13167 as it's a 2 inch hitch which means it has better towing capacities and is the hitch that most accessories are made for like bike racks/cargo carriers. If you plan to do some towing yes you would need trailer wiring, but if you didn't have plans to tow it would not be needed. The best trailer wiring kit would be the # 118613.

  • Can I Use The RockyMount Single Bike Rack With A Swing-Away Hitch Adapter
  • I do have a solution for you, but it will require you to consider a different hitch bike rack. Anytime you add an adapter to your setup, you reduce the maximum tongue weight of that system by 50%. A swing-away hitch attachment is considered an adapter. Unfortunately, you cannot use two adapters in the same system, so you will not be able to use the RockyMounts MonoRail Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount, part # RKY10007. This is because it has an adapter to...

  • Does the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack # RLZ01-DC Install Completely Level on My 2010 Ford Transit Connect?
  • Great question! I went ahead and called my tech at Rhino-Rack, and she confirmed that the reason why there are two different heights of legs that come with the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack # RLZ01-DC is because of the curvature of the roof. She also said that the crossbars will be even once installed, so the cargo box will lay completely flat. I went ahead and attached a picture of this rack installed to give you perspective. For a great cargo box that is compatible with the larger Heavy-Duty...

  • Recommended Anti-Sway Bars for 2021 Thor Axis 25.6 on Ford E-450 Chassis
  • For your 2021 Thor Axis on Ford E450 Chassis, you will want the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-147 and the Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-176. The rear anti-sway bar is the biggest impact because the enhanced stability greatly impacts the body roll and the rear axle positioning requires more stabilizing overall. The front anti-sway is the next thing we recommend adding as it helps keep the front end more stable which helps with steering as well but this is the second...

  • We definitely have parts you can use so that you can tow a trailer with your 2010 Ford Transit Connect XLT, however since the owner's manual states that Ford does not advise towing with your vehicle I don't really have a way to verify a safe towing capacity so you'll need to reach out to your local Ford dealer or just understand that you'll be flying blind when it comes to safe towing weight ratings. If you decide that you still want to tow with your Transit Connect then I recommend installing...

  • The Thule TracRac TracVan ES Van Ladder Rack part # TH29611XT which is a fit for your 2015 Ford Transit Connect does not require you to remove the headliner for installation.

  • How is the Variable Speed Operated on the MaxxAir MaxxFan Trailer Roof Vent # MA00-04000K
  • The built-in thermostat of the MaxxAir MaxxFan Trailer Roof Vent # MA00-04000K is what determines the speed of the fan. The user doesn't have direct control over the speed of the fan because you would just set the desired temperature and the fan takes care of the rest. I have linked a review video that you can check out as well.

  • How Can I Carry A Canoe On My 2021 Ford Transit Connect
  • The Malone SeaWing Kayak Carrier and Load Assist w/ Tie-Downs - Rear Loading - Clamp On, part # MPG113MD, carries kayaks by cradling the hull. Canoes should be carried upside down. Kayak carriers are not designed to conform to the shape of a canoe, so you could damage the hull. The safest way to transport a canoe is on its gunwales. The Malone BigFoot Pro Canoe Carrier with Tie-Downs - Gunwale Brackets - Side Loading - Clamp On, part # MPG112MD, is a good option for carrying a canoe....
