  • Does etrailer Hard Tonneau Cover For 2021 Toyota Tacoma Work With Bed Extender
  • Hi Rod, It is possible you can use the etrailer Hard Tonneau Cover # e95DR with a bed extender, but it depends on how the extender installs. The extender would need to be even and no further than where the tailgate installs, like the Curt Universal Truck Bed Extender with Fold-Down Tailgate # C57WR.

  • Front Hitch for 2020 Ram 2500 Power Wagon
  • This is an easy decision to make since the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch # C73ZV is the only model that is compatible with the Power Wagon trim. The only exception is if you have a diesel but it looks like the Power Wagon comes with a Hemi V8 so that shouldn't be an issue. The hitch has a bolt-on installation, gross trailer weight of 5,000 lbs, line pull of 9,000 lbs, and a 500 lb vertical load.

  • Troubleshooting High Pointe 1908M Convection Microwave Not Heating Up
  • Thanks for reaching out, Jack! While we don't have your exact model of microwave, we do carry similar ones like the High Pointe Built-In RV Convection Microwave # HP99ZR. I tried reaching out to my contact at High Pointe and they were unable to offer any assistance other than "check the warranty", but I was able to find a few things people mentioned they've found helpful online: - Make sure you're following the operation instructions exactly - Check that the fuse behind the shroud cover...

  • Will The Maximum Tongue Weight on a 2018 VW Passat Increase With Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver?
  • Sorry Brian, installing the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11234 is not going to increase your allowable tongue weight on your 2018 VW Passat SE. The maximum weight capacity give by the vehicle manufacturer can not be increased because the receiver has a higher weight capacity. This is all to common as the aftermarket likes to build their products to be stronger than the vehicle can handle to help ensure their product is safe to use. I always recommend having a 4-Way # C79KR installed...

  • Recommended Air Springs For A 2000 Ford F-250 2WD With A B&W Turnoverball Hitch
  • Hi RJ, With the information you provided the only compatible kit is going to be Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2550 as long as our F-250's GVWR is over 8,500lbs. If you look in the door jamb or glove box there should be a sticker listing the GVWR of your F-250 so you can confirm. Air bag installations can vary in difficulty depending on how much space you have to work. With you having a Turnoverball hitch you'll likely have a little bit of a struggle getting everything in place...

  • Recommended 7-Way Connector for a 2020 Kia Telluride
  • Yes, it will so long as your 2020 Telluride already has a 4-way connector like item # C59236 or item # CU94FR. The 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit item # ETBC7L requires a functional 4-way to connect to your Telluride. Please note that the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit item # ETBC7L will only work with wireless brake controllers like the Curt Echo item # C51180. If you are planning on using a traditional in-cab brake controller like item # 90195 you will need to use the Universal Installation Kit item #...

  • Rear Sway Bar for 2005 Fleetwood Fiesta
  • Since your GVWR is 20,500 lbs and you're less than 34' long the best option is the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-143 you were looking at. Your factory U-bolts will need to be long enough to account for the extra 1/2" of thickness and still have at least 3 threads exposed past the nut when properly installed. Measure your current U-bolts to see how much it extends past the nut to determine if they will work or not. If they are too short, you will also need the Extended Round U-Bolt...

  • Where Does Hopkins Tow Bar Lighting Kit Install on 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  • Hey Andrew, the Hopkins tow bar lighting kit part # HM11142565 that you referenced is a fit for your 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee but it doesn't install using the connector you mentioned finding. It actually installs by plugging inline with the trailer wiring connector that is found under the vehicle which you can see more about in the attached install instructions link on this page.

  • Stake Pockets for Wooden Side Stakes on Trailer
  • It sounds like you're looking for stake pocket brackets to add to your trailer. We have a couple different options that will support 2 x 4 stakes. The # 337B2374GZ which is zinc coated can bolt-on. Something like the Curt # C83072 would require a weld-on installation.

  • How to Tell if Adarac Ladder Rack Will Fit with Roll N' Lock Tonneau on a 2021 Ford F-150
  • Hey Sherry, As long as the stake pockets are unrestricted on your 2021 Ford F-150 you can install the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A86RR with your tonneau cover. I tried to look up exactly how your cover installs on your truck but I wasn't able to find an exact photo of it. I'm attaching a video of this ladder rack being installed as well as a photo showing the where the rail installs on the truck bed sides. If you can send me some photos of your setup I can compare...

  • Brake Switch Signal Without Tapping into Factory Wiring On 2021 Toyota Highlander For Brake Control
  • We currently do not have any installation videos for the Redarc Encapsulated Power Diode # RED34FR being used to install the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR with the Harness # RED69FR and Panel # RED48FR for any vehicles or your 2021 Toyota Highlander. I have included an image of the wiring for the Diode below which shows you are simply connecting to a brake light signal wire to feed the diode. Another way we find very helpful to resolve not taping into the brake switch...

  • Is there a 2" Hitch for a 2018 Toyota Camry?
  • No, I am sorry we do not. I also checked with our vendors and it doesn't look like anyone ever made a 2" hitch for a 2018 Toyota Camry. The highest capacity hitch we have for your car is the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11576 you were looking at. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity and a 200 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Acura MDX
  • To add a hitch with a 2" receiver to your 2024 Acura MDX, I recommend the etrailer item # e27KR. This hitch has a 900 lbs maximum tongue weight so it will work great with your Thule bike rack. I really like the way it installs too. The only portion of it you will see is the 2" receiver. I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up.

  • Availability Of Aftermarket Or OEM Puck System FOr A 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500
  • The only puck system available for the 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 is the OEM puck system which is only available from Chevy. It is not available aftermarket. We do have options for both fifth wheel and gooseneck mounts, but nothing quite like the OEM puck system. Our most similar option is the B&W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1020-5W and Companion Fifth Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3500-5W. The companion hitch mounts into the receptacle for the gooseneck ball. This allows for full bed access with the fifth...

  • How to Install 4-Way Wiring on 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
  • I have attached the instructions below which explain how to remove the panels to install the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56434. If there are differences in the panels with the PHEV that is unfortunately not information we have available. Since you do have a PHEV model that battery in the rear should be a 12V auxiliary battery. Assuming that is correct you can run the black wire to this battery instead of running it to the engine.

  • What Is The Purpose Of Running A Wire To The Battery For The Curt T-Connector # C56327
  • Hey Mike thanks for your question. The T-Connectors, like the Curt # C56327 you mentioned require a line to be run to the battery to power the converter. The converter basically serves to protect the wiring on your vehicle. It is circuit-protected, and battery powered which allows for virtually zero draw on the vehicles tail light circuits. We get this question quite a bit regarding the powered converters and the answer is universally, yes, running a wire to the battery is required, even...

  • Should LED be Solid Blue Right When Installing Redarc Tow-Pro Elite
  • Since you haven't finished calibrating the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED63RR yet it won't be solid blue right away. Once you calibrate it will be on all the time if you are in proportional mode. As for the best method there isn't one; you can with or without a trailer attached like you mentioned and it truly won't make any difference at all. It's easier without a trailer attached (because you aren't hooking up the trailer) so that's what most people do.
