  • Is The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH37FR Confirmed To Fit 2019 Porsche Cayenne Hybrid?
  • The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH37FR you were looking at is indeed confirmed to fit your 2019 Porsche Cayenne Hybrid. You will need to trim a small portion of the underside fascia to give the receiver a location to be exposed. This is not something you will see once it is installed as it is under the vehicle. This is the only modification required, and is pretty minor. Keep in mind this rack is only compatible with a bike rack or cargo carrier, and cannot be used with a...

  • How Far Can You Tow With A Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch In The Maneuvering Position
  • When placing your Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider # C16521 into the maneuvering position you'll only want to complete the turn and then slide it back into place to safely tow. Moving the hitch back puts the weight of the trailer behind the rear axle of the truck. This causes all sorts of ride/steering issues and could cause the front of the truck to point up. Going further than the turn places undue stress on the components of your truck and could seriously damage them.

  • Can Vent Fan be Used With Bauer Sun-Out Vent Shade
  • I reached out to Bauer and you will be able to run your vent fan while the # BA89VR Sun Out RV Roof Vent Shade is closed. It is not air tight, so some air will get through. However, they said the air flow will be minimal while the vent is closed. I have attached a video review of the shade for your reference.

  • Do I Need to Disconnect the Battery to Flat-Tow a 2020 Spark LS Manual Transmission
  • You will have to disconnect the battery on your 2020 Chevrolet Spark to flat-tow it. Since the battery will be disconnected, the ignition will not be in accessory mode. You will not need to disconnect the Electronic Stable Control system. To disconnect the battery I recommend the Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect with Switch for Towed Vehicle w/ Supplemental Braking System # RM-766. I recommend this switch because it easily disconnects the battery in your towed vehicle. You will...

  • Where To Run Power and Brake Output Wires For Trailer Brake Controller In 2015 Chevrolet Equinox
  • You are making some pretty good progress on your install and are almost there! I recommend using the hole that the hood latch cable gets run through fire wall as the location to run the black power wire from your trailer brake controller to the vehicle battery, and to run the blue brake output wire back to your 7-way connector. You can see this location at the 10:55 minute mark of the included video of a trailer brake controller being installed on a similar 2012 Chevrolet Equinox.

  • Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controller Installation In A 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche
  • For connecting the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR to your 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche you will need to determine if you have a factory harness already installed. The wiring for the controller located underneath the dash is difficult to find as it is tuck away up in the dash. I have linked a video below that shows an installation for a 2013 Avalanche as the wiring is in the same location. Your wiring connections will be as follows. White wire from controller to white...

  • How Much Horsepower Does the Flashpaq # SU1545 Deliver?
  • I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Pro Custom Performance Tuner - Gas/Diesel # SU1545 requires uploading custom tunes to the device and transferring it to the vehicle in order to gain extra horsepower. With that being said, there are no settings on the Flashpaq that delivers horsepower gains. If you want preset tunes, my contact at Superchips recommends the # SU1845 or # SU4845 (California residents approved). These have preset tunes that have horsepowers...

  • Procedure for Dolly Towing 2008 Lexus RX 350
  • I looked at the owner's manual for your 2008 Lexus RX 350 and did not find any information of dolly towing. Under emergency towing on page 387 it says to release the parking brake, shift the shift lever to N, and turn the engine switch to the ACC or ON position. This is what I would follow. You may need to lock the steering wheel if it does not lock automatically depending on what the dolly requires. This can be done by wrapping the seat belt around the steering wheel by pulling it all...

This fixture has an alluring Satin Nickel finish and uses LEDs to ensure a long-lasting, bright light.

  • What Torque Spec Should Be Used For a Karrier 175/80R13 Trailer Tires?
  • There is not really an exact relationship between tire size and lug nut torque specs. The relationship has more to do with the stud size and wheel construction. For example, if you were using this tire with 1/2" lug studs and steel wheels then you will need to torque the lug nuts between 75-85 ft.-lb. I have attached a photo for you as well with more examples.

  • What is the Speed Rating of the Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire Load Range D
  • The Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Wheel part # AM30859 does have a speed rating and it is 65 mph. I do have a higher rated option for you but this assembly comes with a bias ply tire and these typically don't have very high speed ratings. In order to obtain an 80 mph speed rating you would need to use the Taskmaster 5.30R12 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel part # TA78RR. However, this tire only has a load range C rating which is 200 lbs less than the above....

  • Is Weight Distribution System Needed for 2009 Jeep Liberty with 1 Inch Rear Sag with Trailer Loaded
  • For your 2009 Jeep Liberty with tow package you do not need to use weight distribution but we would recommend it because your trailer is over half the weight of your tow vehicle. There are benefits like reducing sag and adding sway control so it is a great option if you choose to. Based on your trailer weight when you calculate the 10-15% tongue weight and then any cargo weight behind the rear axle of your Jeep, I recommend using the Fastway e2 # FA92-00-0800. This system will use hitch...

  • Does Lippert Spare Tire Winch Lock or Hold in Any Position?
  • The Lippert Components Spare Tire Winch with Offset Cable # LC159056 will not have any locking or hold mechanism short of being completely reeled in. I spoke to my tech contact at Lippert who has this on his truck and he said you just crank it up until tight. He said he has had to slightly tighten the spare one time in 2 years but has had absolutely no issues.

  • Mounting Hardware to Install Gustafson RV LED Ceiling Light 277-000454
  • Gustafson RV LED Ceiling Light # 277-000454 really is a simple install: three screws for mounting it to your ceiling and two wires for connection (white for ground and black for power). You'll also need butt connectors # 05732-2 or wire nuts to connect the wires. For hardware you can take your installation lead from the screws that are holding the existing light in place. If they are wood screws, then use wood screws to install the Gustafson. If they are sheet metal screws then use that...

  • Adjusting Electric Brake Assemblies on Trailer
  • Yes, I have attached a great installation video that you can use to help with adjusting your trailer's brake assemblies. You will want to skip ahead to around the 4:20 mark in the video. Basically you will just need to use a brake adjustment tool like # W80630 to turn the starwheel on the adjuster so that the brake shoes expand. You want to turn the starwheel until the wheel is difficult to turn by hand. Once you get to that point simply back off the starwheel in the other direction until...

  • Does Valterra T1028 Rotating Rigid Pipe Adapter Leak
  • Most likely the issue is related to the glue you used for your application. PVC and ABS require different glue types so you should verify that you used the correct glue for your application. If that's not the issue the problem is possibly the wrong size fitting.

  • Do Old Spring Seats Need To Be Removed to Install Dexter Over/Under Kit
  • Yes. You don't need to cut off the old spring seat on your axle when installing the Dexter Over/Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00; the old spring seat should not be in the way of the new U-bolts that are used to install the axle flip so you don't need to cut it off if you don't have the means.
