Expert Answers about Toyota Pickup


  • RV Trailer Hitch For a Class-C 21 Foot Winnebago
  • RV style hitches can be bolted or welded on your Winnebago frame whereas most vehicles will have mounting holes preset for trailer hitches. I wouldn't recommend using a vehicle trailer hitch. The Curt hitch # 13086 you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 1992 Toyota pickup. For your motor home, the most likely hitch to fit is the Curt adjustable width trailer hitch receiver # 13703. It's a Class-III hitch and can be adjusted from 22-72 inches in width. It will have a gross trailer weight...

  • How To Wire a Truck Bed Converted to a Trailer
  • In order to convert the tail lights on the truck bed to trailer tail lights you'll first need to start with a wiring harness, the 20 Ft 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness part # A20WB. Then, depending on whether or not the brake and turn signals are run through different bulbs/wires you may or may not need a converter, the Vehicle to Vehicle Tail Light Converter part # 118158. If the signals are separate you will need the converter but if they are combined you can just hardwire in the above harness.

  • How To Install Trailer Hitch Receiver On 1982 Toyota Pickup
  • I may have an option for you, but there is not a custom fit trailer hitch receiver confirmed to fit your 1982 Toyota Pickup. To install one I recommend using a universal hitch like the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-07 with 7" tall mounting brackets or # 41990-16 with 16" tall mounting brackets. Each of these options work with frames that are up to 44" wide, but will need some fabrication to fit your frame, and will need to be welded to the frame by a...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Blinkers that Only Work When Brakes are Applied
  • This could be a ground problem. A bad ground connection can cause all sorts of problems. First check the trailer connectors on the vehicle and on the trailer for any dirt or corrosion and clean them out. Corrosion can also build up behind the connectors where the wires attach. On the vehicle side, make sure that the main ground is attached to a clean bare metal surface on the frame. On the trailer side connector, again make sure that the main ground is attached to a clean metal surface. Use...

  • Custom Rubber Brake Hose For 1986 Toyota 1 Ton Pickup
  • While we do not carry vehicle-specific brake lines, I may have a possible solution for your 1986 Toyota 1 ton pickup. I found that the closest match would be the Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Hose # bh-3mfs-15. This is 15 feet long and has the common 3/16" male fittings on the ends. Inner hose diameter is 1/8". This rubber hose does meet the DOT and SAE standards and is compatible with Disc Brakes or Hydraulic Drum Brakes. My contact at Kodiak said it would probably work for a vehicle, but keep...

  • Hitch for 1992 Toyota Hiace IH113
  • I don't think an exact fit hitch is sold in the USA for your Toyota Hiace. You should take a look at the Curt # C13701 adjustable hitch. This hitch can be adjusted for width and then welded or bolted onto an existing frame. I have attached a video review of this product.

  • Recommended RV Bumper Hitch to Transport Firewood
  • It sounds like you are referring to the RV Bumper 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver # S64025. This particular bumper hitch is designed to be used with hitch-mounted bike racks and is not recommended for use with a cargo carrier, as the weight that they will provide is simply too much for the unit to handle. A better option for your application will be with the Curt RV Bumper Trailer Hitch Receiver # E-100. This is intended for 4 inch square channel bumpers and can be used with hitch-mounted...

  • Replacement Hitch for 1991 Toyota Pickup Truck
  • We would not have a part such as this. All the brands we sell are welded together and then the large side plates are bolted to the frame of the truck. If the metal on that part has cracked then I suspect the remainder of the hitch is of a concern for weaken structure. I recommend replacing the entire hitch with the Curt # 13086 Class-3 hitch with 2" receiver that is a confirmed fit for your truck, and includes all hardware needed for installation.

  • What Backup Camera/Monitor Do I Need for the Factory Wiring on my 2018 Keystone Montana
  • If my memory serves me correctly, the 2018 Keystone Montana came pre-wired with a backup/observation camera mount; the camera, monitor, and data cables would then need to be purchased separately. This is the case for all trailer's that came prewired for a Furrion backup/observation camera system. Therefore, in order to obtain these components you would need the Furrion RV Observation Camera System part # FOS43TASF for the 4.3" screen or part # FOS05TASF for the 5" screen. In order to add...

  • Weight Distribution Recommendatino for Towing 3,500 lb Trailer
  • If the trailer you plan on towing weighs more than half of the weight of the tow vehicle we recommend the use of weight distribution. Or if there is considerable sag in the vehicle rear suspension. The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup. You should note that the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your vehicle should be considered tongue weight as well. I attached an FAQ on determining tongue weight for you...

  • Can Hopkins Tail Light Converter Kit Be Used for Combined Tail Lights on Motorcycle
  • Yes, the Hopkins Tail Light Converter Kit # HM48895 will technically work to take the separate circuits on your bike and combine them so that the stop/turn signals are carried along the same wire for use with your 3-wire tail lights. You would need to cut off the 4-Way connector and hardwire that end to the new tail lights. A better option though is going to be with the Roadmaster Brite-Lite Wiring Converter # RM-732, as it wouldn't require any modifications and is really designed specifically...

  • Hitch Recommendation for a 1994 Toyota Pickup Truck
  • Yes, the Curt Hitch part # 13086 that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 1994 Toyota Pickup. It will fit your truck that doesn't have a bumper, and as long as the bumper you plan to install is an OEM bumper there wouldn't be any interference. This hitch won't interfere with your spare tire either. If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4...

  • Recommended 4-Way Flat Wiring for a 1995 Toyota Pickup
  • Yes, a tail light converter would be required to wire your 1995 Toyota pickup for towing. We offer custom-fit T-connector # 118379, which would plug right into your factory connectors behind the vehicle tail lights. I would recommend that you double check the trailer plug, however, as it is common that boat trailers use a 5-Way plug, due to being equipped with hydraulic brakes. If this is the case, you would also need a 4 to 5-Way adapter for your pickup, like part # 20036. The adapter...

  • What Is Needed To Flat Tow A 1987 Toyota Pickup
  • To flat tow a vehicle you need 5 basic components and possibly a few other items to conform these 5 items to best fit your specific combination of tow vehicle and vehicle being towed. 1) Tow-Bar 2) Base Plates, that are vehicle specific 3) Safety Cables 4) Wiring Solution, something to tie the two vehicles indicator lights to the vehicle being towed 5) Supplemental Braking For your 1987 Toyota Pickup we have the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit, # 1117-1.

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack Recommendation for a 1986 Toyota Pickup
  • I may have an option that will work for you, but I do not believe the Topline Truck Bed Bike Rack will work with your truck. It was designed for truck bed walls with an inside lip. Instead, I recommend looking at a bike rack like the Thule Insta-Gater Pro, # TH93VR. This is a wheel mount bike rack that also does not require a lip. I have attached video reviews for each of these bike racks for you to check out.

  • Trailer Tire Recommendation for Tire Size ST205/75R14
  • Best option we have for a 14 inch trailer tire is the part # 274-000012 that is the same size that you currently have of 205/75R14. Why I like recommend this tire is that has enough capacity for your setup at 2,040 lbs per tire if inflated to 65 psi, has a speed rating of 75 mph and has a 2 year roadside assistance program that comes with it. If your RV or trailer has a flat tire, call the help line and a technician will come change the flat for you. You can call 24 hours a day, 7 days...

  • Parts Needed to Upgrade to a Larger Trailer Tire
  • To install a larger 13 inch tire and wheel combo like the Kenda Karrier # AM31952, you will need to get more room for the wheels. With your current tire having a diameter of 21.9 inches and a width of 5.6 inches, these would be quite a bit larger having a diameter of 24.1 inches and a width of 7 inches. You want to keep the side wall of the tire and the wall of the fender somewhere around an inch or inch and a half, but this is not as important as the height. You want to have a minimum...
