  • Wireless Brake Controller For Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver on a 2018 Volvo XC60
  • With the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # SH87FRT you do not have to attach the 7-way to the receiver in the vertical orientation. The kit was designed this way as it would allow for the receiver and 7-way to be completely hidden when not in use. You can use the included mounting bracket to fasten it in a horizontal position if you would prefer on your 2018 Volvo XC60. The Curt Echo # C51180 can be used in the vertical mounting position but it will most likely not work...

  • Recommended Installer for Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch on a 2020 Volvo XC90
  • I'm not entirely sure where in Fort Mill you're located at, but using our Installer Locator (which I've linked to the bottom of this webpage) I was able to find a shop 34.67 miles from your ZIP. I highly recommend checking out the Installer Locator that I've linked to make your decision, but Whitley Automotive is where I'd steer toward because they are listed as ASE (Automotive Service Excellence) certified, which means the people that work there are going to be more than qualified to...

  • Wireless Brake Controller Similar to Tekonsha RV that Doesn't Require Trailer Drilling
  • Hey David, I have an easier solution for a brake controller that is similar to the Tekonsha RF part # TK94FR and won't require trailer modification. Instead you'd want the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which basically just plugs into a 7-way and once synced to your smart phone is ready to tow with.

  • Does The Curt Hitch C92WR Interfere With The Lift Gate Sensor On A 2023 Volvo XC60
  • Hey Paul, so we installed this Curt # C92WR hitch on a 2023 Volvo XC60 not too long ago. The liftgate sensor did still function with the hitch installed. That said, the hitch does sit pretty near the sensor, so the sensors range was slightly limited in the area directly beneath the hitch. All you will need to do is wave your foot on either side of the receiver tube and it will operate exactly as it should. I have linked our install video for your below. You can see Ryan going over the...

  • Troubleshooting Backup Camera Problems with Curt Wiring Installed on a 2012 Volvo XC60
  • It could be that the draw of the Curt T-Connector # C56355 on your 2012 Volvo XC60 that's causing the problem, but I will say that it's not uncommon for backup camera systems to be a bit finicky so I recommend disconnecting the tees of the Curt system from the tail lights on your XC60 and then running your camera system through the motions to see if you're still having issues or not. If you are then it's the camera system itself, but if you aren't then that means the Curt wiring is causing...

  • What Exactly Does The Dealer Need To Program When Installing Stealth Hitch SH87FRT
  • As far as the dealer programing required for the Stealth Hitch # SH87FRT, a lot of times the programming consists of the dealer simply activating the vehicles tow package, or in some way getting the vehicle to recognize the trailer wiring harness. If you contact a Subaru dealership they may be able to give you a bit more info on what specifically needs to be done and how much they charge. From what I hear, the reprograming process is fairly brief. Knowing Subaru, it is a safe bet to say...

  • Replacement Hub and Drum Assembly for 2006 Karavan Trailer
  • You already did all of the work here by finding the bearings. Since you have a # 25580 inner and # 15123 outer bearing the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 6K Axles # AKHD-655-6-G-EZ-K will work as a replacement. The only other thing to match up is the bolt pattern and this has the same 6 on 5-1/2 you currently have. If you want replacement brakes as well you can use the # AKUBRK-7. If you don't have a lockout and need free backing brakes then we also have the # AKFBBRK-7.

  • Can WFCO WF-8740-P Be Converted To Work With Lithium Batteries?
  • I have another option for you, but there is not a way to only replace the converter in your WFCO WF-8740-P that is compatible with Lithium batteries. Instead you will need to replace the entire panel using the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger - 45 Amp # PD4045KA which is the correct replacement panel for your WF-8740-P so it will be a straight forward replacement, and includes a converter compatible with Lithium batteries like you are wanting.

  • Using 1-1/4 Bike Rack With 2 Inch Stealth Hitches Receiver on Volvo V60
  • Hey there Rick, there is a way to use your 1-1/4" Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH12G with the 2" receiver that comes with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH47FR. What you would need to do is simply use an adapter, the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" # HT02. This will go in the 2" receiver and essentially turn it into a 1-1/4" receiver. It comes with a 1-1/4" pin and clip, though you won't be using that for your Sherpa so you can disregard it. The only thing you would need is something to secure...

  • Can I Use The ZCI Harness 119250KIT To Combine Tail Lights On A Semi?
  • Yes, you can indeed use the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT to combine the tail lights on the semi. We actually recommend this product quite frequently for this purpose. To install the actual RV 7-way use install kit # ETBC7 which will include everything to install the 7-way and a brake controller. For a brake controller I recommend using the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 since it is their most user-friendly and durable controller. You may need additional wire and...

  • Hitch, Wiring, and Brake Controller Recommendations for a 2020 Volvo 760 Semi Truck
  • Hey David, thanks for reaching out! I recommend using the Buyers Products 2" Platform Body Hitch Receiver # 3371801051L which is a customizable weld-on installation. There aren't any custom-fit hitches for semi trucks to something like this is what you'll need to go with. Then for wiring and a brake controller I recommend the Universal Wiring Harness w/ ModuLite and Brake Controller Harness # 22551 which installs to each light function, mounts to the hitch with the Mounting Bracket #...

  • 2023 Volvo XC60 Hidden Hitch and Trailer Wiring Recommendations
  • Hey George, thanks for reaching out! As long as you aren't towing more than the 3,400 lbs I recommend using the Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT82GR for your 2023 Volvo XC60 because of the completely removable hitch receiver and the 3,500 lb tow weight rating. Then for wiring I recommend the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT because it's a universal kit that uses clamps to sense when to send power to the trailer lights as opposed to having to...
