  • Trailer Hitch Recommended for 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug In Hybrid
  • We do indeed have a hitch for your vehicle. According to Curt, their # C13398 Class III hitch is a fit for all models of the 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (plug-in hybrid), including the GT model. If you'll be using the hitch for towing purposes, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # C59496 if the vehicle isn't equipped with the factory tow package or # C77KR if it IS equipped with the tow package. If you're not sure how your vehicle was equipped, your Mitsubishi dealer should...

  • Recommended Flat Tow System For A 2018 Mitsubishi Mirage
  • When it comes to flat towing your 2018 Mitsubishi Mirage I recommend The Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly w/ Disc Brakes - Tilt Bed Frame - 4,800 pounds - Wide Tread # DM9713093. The Demco Kar Kaddy has a maximum vehicle weight capacity up to 4,800 pounds. It is ideal for cars with front-wheel-drive with automatic transmissions.

  • Which Trailer Wiring Harness for 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander
  • As long as your Outlander isn't the plug in hybrid (PHEV), I'd recommend the # 118482 for vehicles without the factory tow package or # 118277 for vehicles with the tow package. If your vehicle has the tow package, it will have the tow package electrical connector located behind the driver's side bulkhead in the cargo area, to the rear of the wheel well as shown in the provided photo. You could also call your Mitsubishi dealer with the VIN, and they should be able to tell you how the vehicle...

  • Brake Controller for 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander
  • I can get you set up with everything you need to add a brake controller to your 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. You were correct in starting with the 4-way like # 118482. You will also need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7, which will give you a 7- and 4-way trailer connector (which you will plug your trailer's 7-way into), circuit breakers and the rest of the hardware needed to install a brake controller. As for the brake controller itself, I strongly recommend...

  • Parts Needed to Install a Trailer Brake Controller on a 2006 Mitsubishi Raider
  • I spoke with my contact at Tekonsha and he stated that they have not tested the brake controller wiring harness on a 2006 Mitsubishi Raider. So, while it is possible that it will fit if the truck has a factory tow package that includes a 7-Way trailer connector, since it has not been tested I cannot say for sure if it will or not. Instead, you can hardwire the controller. If the truck does not have a trailer connector, you will need to first install # 118323. I have included a link to...

  • Recommended Electric Bike Carrier For A Gulf Stream Travel Trailer
  • When it comes to carrying electric bikes on your Gulf Stream travel trailer using The Malone 2 inch Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver # MPG544 will reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50 percent. Since your 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander has a tongue weight of 350 pounds it will drop down to 175 pounds. I recommend putting The Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22 inch to 66 inch Wide # C13704 on the back of your travel trailer. It is a bolt on style hitch that will...

  • Parts Needed to Add 7-Way and Brake Controller To a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV With 4-Way Flat
  • We have the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 that will allow you to install a 7-way and brake controller on your 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. I do not see an aftermarket option that is plug and play for your Outlander. You will be able to plug in the 4-Way # C59496 the dealer would have installed into the 7-way that comes with the kit. And run the additional wiring for the charge line and brake controller with the components that come with the kit. I...

  • Circuit Breaker Rating for +12V Auxiliary Power Circuit on 7-Way Wiring
  • In a 7-way wiring set-up the +12V auxiliary power circuit that is present to power a jack or top off the charge on a trailer battery is usually protected with a 40-amp breaker. The 30-amp breaker is appropriate for the brake controller. The 40-amp breaker # 9510 has an auto-reset feature that will re-connect the circuit once any overload condition has been removed. The copper-color post connects to the battery.

  • Rhino Rack Crossbars for 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport w/ Flush Mounted Roof Rails
  • For a 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport with the flush-mounted rails, all you would need is the Rhino Rack crossbars, part # RRVA126B-2 and the # RRSX031 leg kit. The leg kit is designed to attach directly to the flush mounted rails, and no fit kit is necessary. I have confirmed this with Rhino Rack.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2006 Jeep Wrangler and a 2005 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder
  • There are 5 components that you will need to flat tow a vehicle behind a motor home. You will need a base plate kit, a tow bar, tail light kit, safety cables and a supplemental braking system. It looks like you will be better off towing your Jeep rather than the Eclipse. After doing some research on your vehicles, it appears that there are no base plate kits available for your Eclipse. Base plate kits are the only component that must be vehicle specific. I spoke with my contacts at Roadmaster...

  • Which Lock Core Do I Need For My Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack?
  • The best way to add locks to the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack is to use Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4 # TH450400. This comes with 4 lock cores for each tower of the Thule AeroBlade roof rack and it comes with 2 matching keys and the master key for changing out lock cores. The Replacement Lock Cylinder for Thule Racks and Carriers - N197 # THLOCKN197 is specifically a replacement lock core if your roof rack has the N197 key code stamped into the lock core.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Other Parts to Tow with a 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
  • The trailer hitch receiver I recommend for your 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is the etrailer # e63AR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2 inch receiver opening. Also, a Class III hitch receiver has a 2 inch opening. The 2 inch accepts a larger variety of bike racks and other accessories than a 1-1/4 inch will. If it turns out you need to carry a 1-1/4 inch accessory it's also a lot easier to use a reducer from the 2 inch than it is to go the other way. Since you said you're going...

  • It is easy to convert your 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander's 4-pole flat trailer connector to a 7-way for use with a trailer brake controller like the excellent Prodigy P2 # 90885. All you'll need apart from the controller itself is our installation kit # ETBC7.

I have linked an article and video illustrating installation. You...

  • Trailer Hitch for 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander
  • If you have a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander that's a PHEV, the etrailer # e48KR is fit. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness, part # 118482, a # D-28 ball mount along with a # PC3 hitch pin and a trailer ball. For a 1-7/8 inch ball, use # 40038 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball. If you have an Outlander Sport, the Curt # C13079 fits all 2021 Outlander Sport models except for the PHEV. For a trailer wiring harness, use # TK67VR. You'd use the same ball mount...

  • Parts Needed to Allow Swagman XTC-2 To Carry Fat Tire Bike
  • I have a solution for you, but the the tires on your bike are 2.8" wide and the Swagman XTC-2 # S64670 can only accommodate tires up to 2.5" wide in the included wheel holders. You'll need swap the wheel holders out for the Swagman Fat Tire Bike Adapters # S64674 to allow your oversized wheels to seat comfortable in the holders. These adapters can house wheels up to 5" wide.

  • Recommended 205/75R14 Tire Replacement for Camper Currently Using Bias Ply Tires
  • I recommend the Kenda Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range C # AM10234. These Kenda tires are the same size tires that you're currently using, but are a radial tire, opposed to the bias ply tires that are currently on your camper. Radial tires have a less stiff of a sidewall and are going to provide you with better ground contact, traction, stability, and tread wear. Additionally, because the plies of the tire do not overlap, they're less prone to heating up; heat is the...

  • Recommended Wiring Harness for 2014 Mitsubishi RVR
  • We have just what you're looking for. I recommend using the # C59496 because we've found that the converter boxes are a bit more reliable over time, so it's going to be a harness that can withstand the test of time. This harness will need to be hard wired into your tail lights, since there are no plug and play harnesses available for your 2014 Mitsubishi RVR. If you don't already have a hitch and ball mount kit, I've added some recommendations for those below, as well. Hitch: Curt # C13079 Ball...

  • Recommended Upgraded Crossbar System for a 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander With a Bare Roof
  • I spoke with Thule and they were able to confirm that there actually are not any corresponding fit kits for the Traverse Feet and your 2017 Mistubishi Outlander with a slick roof. With that being said, your only option is to upgrade your roof rack to a newer system like the Yakima CoreBar Crossbars # Y00421, with the SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR and the Landing Pad 11 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers # Y00233. This system will work with your bare roof, has a maximum...
