  • How Do Brakes Get Power With a 4-Way to 7-Way Adapter
  • It sounds like you have a 4-way connection on your vehicle and added a 7-way adapter like the Curt Trailer Connector Adapter # C57672. Plugging your 4-way into this adapter will only give you the same functionality you had before, powering your trailer's signal lights. In order to get power to your brakes and be able to use your brake controller, you will need to run some additional wiring. What you need is the Wiring Kit for 2, 4, 6, and 8 Brake Electric Trailer Brake Controllers # 5506....

  • Will Buyers Products Hitch Plate # 3371809060A Fit 33 Inch Frame Width
  • The side mounting plates on the Buyers Products Hitch Plate # 3371809060A are spaced apart by 34-1/4 inches, inside to inside. This is likely a bit too large for the 33 inch wide frame on your vehicle. Your best option may simply be with a weld-on hitch like the Curt Class V # 15901, which will work on frames that are between 18 and 44 inches wide. This unit features a 2 inch receiver opening and a 15,000 pound towing weight capacity. It is assembled right here in the USA and the mounting...

  • Replacement Handle Nut Availability for Trailer Hitch Install
  • For just the handle nut of the trailer hitch part # 75043 that you referenced it would be part # 1332, which is unfortunately no longer available. If you needed all of the install hardware for this hitch you instead would want the part # RHK. You would then need to select the hitch manufacturer and enter the part number in the box and we will ship you out the correct hardware.

  • Parts Needed to Install a 7-Way and Trailer Brake Controller on a 1999 Isuzu NPR
  • To add a trailer brake controller and 7-Way connector to your 1999 Isuzu NPR you will first need to install a 4-Way trailer connector # 119178KIT. Then you will need to install 4 and 7-Way installation kit # ETBC7. The ETBC7 kit includes the 7-Way and the wiring and accessories needed to install a brake controller. I have included some links to the right that explain the ETBC7 installation. For a brake controller I recommend the Tekonsha P2, # 90885. This is our most popular brake controller...

  • Where Does a Trailer Wiring Harness Install on a 2001 Isuzu Tropper
  • Trailer wiring harness # C55339 installs in a factory wiring harness located on the driver's side of the back of your 2001 Isuzu Trooper. The factory harness should be attached to a grommet between the rear wheel well and the bumper on the exterior of the vehicle. It appears that it also could be near or above an exhaust pipe. Since the vehicle is over 15 years old it is possible that the location is covered with road grime and/or is otherwise difficult to see. It may be easier to find...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1993 Isuzu Trooper RS with Jeep DV8 Front Bumper Installed
  • Do you know the diameter of the holes on the D-Ring mounts that are on the bumper? If so then you could use Blue Ox adapter such as # BX88296 for 7/8 inch diameter if that is the hole size. There are also options for 3/4 inch D-Rings # RM-035 or 1 inch rings # RM-035-1 but you would then have to use a Roadmaster tow bar such as the Falcon 2 # RM-520. If you go with the Roadmaster set up then the tow bar does not come with safety cables like the Blue Ox Aventa LX does. So for safety cables...

  • Trailer Brake Lights Not Working on a Trailer Towed by 2008 Isuzu N-Series
  • The turn signals and brake lights should be on the same circuit. What I think may be happening is when the brake lights are on, they draw more power. When more power is drawn, this is usually when you will see ground wiring problems. First, I would make sure that the vehicle side connector shows the same pin for turn signal and brake lights using a circuit tester like # PTW2993. Next, check to make sure both the trailer side and vehicle side connectors are free of dirt and corrosion. Then...

  • Trailer Wiring Solution for 1994 Isuzu Trooper
  • The trailer wiring kits that fit your 1994 Isuzu Trooper loike the # C55339 do not use T-connectors that tap into the taillight wiring like you were mentioning. This plugs into a port on the vehicle specifically for trailer wiring so you'd need to go with this kit instead of trying to rewire what you have. We also don't offer any of the OEM vehicle connectors either.

  • Recommendation for Mounting Roof Basket on 1989 Isuzu Trooper
  • I may have an option for you, however your 1989 Isuzu Trooper does not have the type of factory raised side rails that are needed to mount a cargo basket like the Surco Safari Rack # SPS5084-1101 that you referenced. We do not currently have a roof rack available that is confirmed to fit your Trooper, however we do have a system that might work. I recommend taking a look at the Inno Feet for Square Crossbars # INSD. These feet are designed to mount to a vehicle's rain gutters like what...

  • Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and Brake Controller on 2002 Isuzu NPR
  • To install a new, fully functional 7-Way connector on your 2002 Isuzu NPR you will need to start by hardwiring a 4-Way harness. There are not any plug-and-play harnesses available for your particular truck. If your truck has turn signals and brake lights that run on the same bulbs then I recommend the Tekonsha # 18252. If the turn and brake signals are on separate bulbs then you will use the Tekonsha # 119178KIT instead. This kit includes the converter that is needed to combine the circuits...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for 3500-lb Trailer and 1998 Isuzu Trooper
  • Weight distribution/sway control (WD/SC) set-ups are needed in several circumstances, such as when the trailer's weight is more than half of the tow vehicle weight. This is surely the case for your trailer and vehicle combination so a WD/SC system will definitely improve your trailering experience by taking away some of the vehicle rear-end sag and trailer sway. The key to choosing the correct system is knowing the total effective tongue weight (TW) of the setup. This total TW is the combination...

  • Recommended Spare Tire Bike Rack for 1995 Isuzu Trooper
  • The Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Rack - Spare Tire Mount # TH963PRO you referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 1995 Isuzu Trooper. This rack will mount to the spare tire on your vehicle and will let you carry up to 2 bikes at 35 pounds each. I recommend adding the Saris Cable Lock # SA981 to secure your bikes to the rack.

  • Tow Ready Custom Fit Wiring Recommendation for a 1999 Isuzu Amigo
  • This Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, # 118360, would be the correct wiring kit for your 1999 Isuzu Amigo. Most likely the 5x8 utility trailer that you are renting will have a 4-way connector that will plug right into the 4-way trailer connector from the # 118360. I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also. You may also be interested in the following products to complete your tow setup: Curt Trailer Hitch # C13235 Class II Drawbar # 36053 Hitch...

  • You can install a universal 50 state approved catalytic converter on your 2004 Isuzu Rodeo as long as the one you choose has the proper ports and is the right size. If you do this and have it professionally installed then it should not have a problem passing the emissions inspection. I have included a link to all of the universal fit 50 state approved converters that we carry. We do not currently offer O2 sensors. You should be able to pick up the correct one from an auto parts store or...

  • Can an Isuzu Vehicross SUV Be Flat Towed Behind a Motorhome
  • The Isuzu VehiCROSS was offered in the U.S. market for model years 1999 through 2001. I checked for availability of base plates for this vehicle for all three of those model years and I show no fits. This could mean that either the car cannot be flat towed or that it can BUT the demand for the base plates was too low to be economically-worthwhile for base plate manufacturers. Only 4,153 of this car was sold in the U.S. This is a very low figure that would make development of base plates...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Install 2000 Isuzu Rodeo
  • We have not had the opportunity to install the Tow Ready T-1 Vehicle Wiring Harness on a 2000 Isuzu Rodeo, so we do not have a video available. I reviewed the installation instructions (see link), and it appears that the installation is not too terribly involved. You would start by removing the tail light assemblies, which is typically accomplished by opening the rear hatch and removing the fasteners that pass through the door jamb into the tail light assemblies. You would then unclip...
