  • Ground Clearance with Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Installed on a 2012 Kia Soul
  • On the 2012 Kia Soul, the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24839, measures 9-1/2 inches from the top of the receiver opening to the ground. From the bottom of the receiver it would be 8 inches. I have included a video showing a typical installation on a 2012 Kia Soul that shows this measurement. If you plan on doing some towing you will need ball mount # 3593, hitch pin and clip # PC2, a 1-7/8 inch ball # 19256 or a 2 inch ball # 19258. For trailer wiring you can use # 118431 or, if you have...

  • Will Rhino-Rack Top Channel Mounting Kit # RRRBCA034 Fit Rola Roof Rack Crossbars
  • The kit that did not fit, # RRRBCA035, was designed specifically for Rhino-Rack's heavy duty crossbars which have an over-sized channel. Kit # RRRBCA034 on the other hand is for what is basically the standard channel size. The nuts will fit a channel that is 7/8 inches wide at the bottom (widest) and 7/16 inches wide at the top. The nuts are slightly less than 7/8 inches square.

  • Some of Bolt & Hole Was Stripped Installing Curt Hitch C11419
  • It really depends on how much of the bolt hole and bolt were stripped during the install of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11419, but to be on the safe side, you will likely want to use another M10 x 1.25 bolt. And if the weldnut was stripped at all, I highly recommend using a tap, the 10 mm x 1.5 Tap # PTW8619. We just want to make sure you can safely install the hitch, and the bolts will catch, allowing you the proper torque.

  • Can I Tow a U-Haul Trailer with My 2017 Kia Soul
  • Since the Class I Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11419 for your 2017 Kia Soul can tow up to 2,000 lbs it will be able to handle the weight of either trailer, but the 1,650 lbs and 1,800 lbs weight ratings you're seeing is the max amount of cargo each trailer can hold. When you add the weight of the trailer into the mix you're then looking at 2,500 lbs for the 4x8 and 2,700 lbs for the 5x8. As long as you stay under the 2,000 lb weight capacity of the Curt hitch you'll be fine. This means...

  • How to Determine if Rhino Rack Roof Basket part # RMCB Will Fit Factory Crossbars of a 2016 Kia Soul
  • The Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket, # RMCB, will most likely fit the factory roof rack of your 2016 Kia Soul but you will need to measure the crossbars first. This basket will mount on crossbars having a 21 to 30 inch spread (distance between them on center) and measure up to 3-1/2 inches wide and 1-1/2 inches tall.

  • What is the Tow Weight Capacity of the EcoHitch for a 2019 Kia Soul
  • The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 306-X7326 is rated for 300 lbs tongue weight and 2,000 lbs towing weight like what our customer service rep would have told you. It looks like the online owner's manual for your 2018 Kia Soul say not to tow with this vehicle though so the tow weight reduction shouldn't be affecting how you use the trailer hitch. If you're in the market for a bike rack then I recommend taking a look at the RockyMounts WestSlope item # RKY10222 because it...

  • Can the 2014 Kia Soul + Tow a 1,200 Pound Trailer
  • I checked the vehicle owner's manual and all it says is that it is not recommended to tow a trailer with the 2014 Kia Soul (any model). But it also does not say you can't and there are numerous references to towing throughout the manual. So my interpretation is that you could tow a trailer but how heavy is unclear. I would say that at 1,200 pounds that is probably the max you would want to tow. Also, at 75 pounds that tongue weight is too light and that will make the trailer susceptible...

  • What Roof Rack Do You Recommend for a Panoramic Sunroof on a 2016 Kia Soul?
  • The best roof rack for your 2016 Kia Soul with a panoramic sunroof is a Thule roof rack because it gives your Soul a rack that is highly functional with a refined look. This rack uses the fixed mounting points on your flush factory rails which is why it is going to be compatible with your panoramic sunroof. Here is a rack setup that will work great with your 2016 Kia Soul panoramic sunroof: - Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 53" Long # TH711420 (Black) or # TH711400 (Silver) -...

  • Recommended 2 Inch Hitch for a 2015 Kia Soul
  • Yes, we do. To add a 2" hitch to your 2015 Kia Soul you will want the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch item # 306-X7326. This custom fit hitch bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" receiver visible. This not only helps with ground clearance but also looks better. I have linked an installation video below and also attached a couple of pictures so you can see what this hitch looks like...

  • Can a 2013 Kia Soul Carry an Electric Wheelchair on a Cargo Carrier
  • I can't say for sure. It depends on the weight of the carrier and the wheelchair. All of the trailer hitch receivers we carry for your 2013 Kia Soul, like the Draw-Tite # 24839, have a 200 pound tongue weight capacity. Which means the carrier and the wheelchair combined cannot be heavier than 200 pounds with this hitch. It's likely the wheelchair is quite heavy and will exceed that itself. Additionally, the Soul may have a lower capacity than the hitch so you may be limited even more....

  • Can 2011 Kia Soul with Draw-Tite Class I Hitch # 24839 Tow a 5 x 8-Foot Trailer
  • The Draw-Tite hitch you referenced, part # 24839, is indeed a correct fit for your 2011 Kia Soul. This light-duty Class I hitch has a 1-1/4-inch receiver opening. I have linked an installation video for this hitch on your same model year Soul. For some vehicles hitches are available to enable use of accessory items such as bike racks and cargo baskets, but the availability of a hitch for any given vehicle does not necessarily mean that vehicle is suitable for towing a trailer. According...

  • Could Roadmaster High Low Adapter # RM-076 Be Used with Scooter Carrier
  • As long as the weight of your carrier and chair is less than 200 lbs the Roadmaster Drop Adapter part # RM-076 will work well for you as it gives you the drop you need. It also cuts the capacity of your hitch by 50 percent but since it's a truck that shouldn't be a problem.

  • Clearance Measurement From Roof For Kayak Carrier On 2014 Kia Soul
  • I pulled one of the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier, part # S510 from our warehouse and took a measurement for you. I have attached a photo that shows the measurement of the knob and the bottom plate that goes under the crossbars on your 2014 Kia Soul. As noted on the photo, the combined measurement is 1-3/8 inches. If you have more than 1-3/8 inches from the bottom of your crossbar to the roof then these will work well for you.
