  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness For a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11222 is our only receiver that is confirmed to fit your 2011 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible, as long as you do not have ground effects. The Hopkins Wiring Harness # HM11141285 will give you a 4-way flat connector that you can use to control the lights on small trailers you may pull. It can also be used with Auxiliary Lights # C53201 in the event your hitch mounted accessory impairs the view of your tail lights to other drivers.

  • Hitch Options for 2012 Chevrolet Camaro for Use of a Bike Rack
  • The NEO2 Bike Rack # B01748 is a hitch-mount type bike carrier that requires the vehicle to have either a 1-1/4-inch or 2-inch trailer hitch receiver installed. This rack includes an adapter that lets it work with both hitch sizes. With the NEO2 you can use hitch lock # 63232 to secure the rack to your hitch, cable lock # e98891 to lock your bikes. For your 2012 Chevrolet Camaro we have the Curt # C11222 that fits the convertible version without ground effects.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2012 Camaro SS Transformers Edition
  • I spoke with my contacts at Draw-Tite, Hidden hitch, and Curt. They all indicated that the available hitches for the 2012 Chevy Camaro should fit the Transformers edition as long as it does not have a dealer-added ground effects package. On any of the hitches, only the receiver will be visible beneath the car. The cross tubing and mounting brackets will not be visible. I have included a link to the installation instructions for the Hidden Hitch that you have referenced. Installation is...

  • Would Rightline Roof Cargo Basket Fit on Vehicle Roof with 32 inch Crossbar Spread
  • You could install the Rightline roof bag # RL100S20 directly to the vehicle roof on a vehicle that has crossbars that are 32 inches apart. Since the bag is longer than the crossbar spread you are correct and it would have to go over at least one of the bars. I would recommend having it go over the rear bar as that would prevent air from getting under the bag as you are travelling.

  • Army Hitch Cover for a 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch
  • We have hitch cover # AUT2-ARMY-C for a 1-1/4 inch hitch. The only other option is to use an adapter such as # HTAD to go from a 1-1/4 inch hitch to a 2 inch. But this will also make it stick out further.

  • Recommendation for Transporting Lawnmower and Weed Eater with 2015 Chevrolet Camaro
  • The best recommendation I can make for your son to carry a lawnmower and weed eater with his 2015 Camaro is to install a trailer hitch and use a small trailer. As long as the Camaro is not the ZL1 or Z/28 model, the vehicle has a tongue weight capacity of 100 pounds with a towing capacity of 1,000 pounds. Based on the 90 pound weight of the lawnmower, carrying the mower and weed eater on a hitch mounted cargo carrier will be too heavy for the vehicle. If the 2015 Chevrolet Camaro is...

  • Engine Oil Cooler Mounting Location Options for a 1994 Chevy Camaro
  • I own a 1998 Pontiac Trans Am and have a very large transmission cooler plus an underhood ram-air kit (Fast Toys Ram Air) that blocks about 50% of the direct air flow that would go through the radiator and I have had no cooling problems. The cooling fans on our F-body cars are very powerful for cooling the radiator fluid and you should not have a problem with airflow through the radiator. Also, our bottom breather style radiators are very efficient. You will notice that most modern cars...

  • Will the Edge Insight Tune the Engine and Add Horsepower to a 2012 Chevy Camaro with 3.6 Liter V6
  • The Edge Insight, # EP84130, does not tune the engine on a 2012 Chevy Camaro. Instead, what it does is allow you to view various parameters of engine performance. The data parameters you can monitor include: Battery Voltage Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Engine Oil Pressure (EOP) Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Engine Oil Temperature (EOT) Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Miles Per Hour (MPH) Miles Per Gallon (MPG) Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) 1/4-mile and 0 - 60 times It will not...

  • Tandem Axle Trailer Spring Hanger Kit and 6K Leaf Springs
  • The hanger kit I recommend is part # APT3HD which includes front, center and rear hangers, equalizers and bolts. This kit is good for axles up to a 7K rating and most 3-inch diameter axles are rated for 6000 to 7200-lbs. The linked video will let you see the kit contents. Please note the kit does not include parts to mount the axle to the suspension; for that use # APUBR-8, one kit per axle. For double-eye leaf springs please refer to the linked page that displays all 6K rated springs...

  • How Much Power Does a Cat-Back Lid and Filter LS1 Car Have
  • As the owner of a 98 Pontiac Trans Am with an LS1 and an automatic transmission I am pretty familiar with the gains associated with the basic mods of these cars. Magnaflow claims you will gain about 14 horsepower and 18 ft-lbs of torque. That seems a bit generous, but it will definitely sound better and you will pick up power. Lid and air filter is usually worth another 10 horsepower and torque as well. We carry a filter similar to the one you are looking at. Most lid and catback cars...

  • What Ball Mount is Needed for a 2011 Chevy Camaro For Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch 60266
  • The Hidden Hitch trailer hitch, # 60266 (no longer available), actually comes with the correct ball mount, hitch pin and clip. On a Class I hitch, like this one, or Class II hitch, you must use the ball mount recommended by the hitch manufacturer or it will void the hitch warranty. The ball mount measures 10 inches from the hitch pin hole to the ball hole but it is sufficient to clear the rear bumper because of the angle that the rear fascia is at. It is12 inches higher on the vehicle...

  • Recommended Performance Exhaust for 2014 Chevy Camaro LT 3.6L V6
  • I have two muffler and exhaust options available for your 2014 Chevy Camaro LT 3.6L V6. They are designed to improve engine performance by boosting horsepower and torque. These are specifically designed to fit your vehicle. Your first option, and my preference is the MagnaFlow Cat-Back Exhaust System - Stainless Steel # MF15353. This exhaust system has tubing that is 2-1/2 inches in diameter and is mandrel-bent to allow unrestricted airflow to decrease back pressure. Each performance...

  • Are Stabilizer Straps Required for Curt # C11900 Hitch When Used With Cargo Carrier?
  • Curt requires the use of # 18050 stabilizing straps on the hitch # C11900 for non-supported loads like bike racks or cargo carriers like the Curt # C18145 cargo carrier. I really like how well hidden this hitch is. If it were me, I would add the etrailer # 22281 rubber hitch cover. I looked into the installation instructions, and among the typical tools required, there were a few special tools that you should consider getting to make the install go easier and faster. You may want the...

  • Is Drilling Required to Install Curt Class I Hitch C11117 on 2001 Chevy Camaro Convertible
  • To install the Curt light-duty Class I hitch # C11117 on your 2001 Chevy Camaro (so long as it is NOT the dual exhaust or dual-exhaust-cutout versions) some drilling will be required. The linked instructions detail the process and also list the tools you'll need. All required hardware is included with the hitch. A helpful article on hitch installation is linked for you too. This hitch fits your Camaro convertible so long as it is NOT have the ground effects package. I confirmed with my...

  • Recommended 14 Inch Wheels for Boat Trailer
  • The Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 14" x 5-1/2" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - White Powder Coat # AM20352 is absolutely suitable for a boat trailer. The powder coat finish will protect it from rust and corrosion for a long time. If you want a more corrosion resistant option, I recommend aluminum wheels like # LHSJ211G.

  • What Makes a Wheel Rated for Use on a Boat Trailer
  • The Steel Modular Trailer Wheel part # AM20365 has a white powder coated finish. It can still be used on a boat trailer but it will not hold up well in due time. Boat trailer wheels are frequently submerged in both fresh and saltwater applications which makes them much more prone to rust and corrosion. Rust and corrosion will not only take the finish off of the wheel but it will also corrode the bead seat which will cause the tire to leak air. Instead, I recommend going with a wheel that...

  • How Much Power Will a Tuner Give a 2011 Chevy Camaro SS
  • For starters, the Edge Insight CTS2 Comprehensive Gauge Display part # EP84130 is not an actual tuner just a gauge display. Instead, I recommend the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner part # SU2845 which is an actual tuner that will provide increases in horsepower and torque up to 23HP and 22TQ. This device would also not cause you to not pass emission testing. Please note, not many if any canned tunes will give a naturally aspirated (NA) engine a 50 horsepower gain. I would say...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2017 Chevy Camaro SS
  • You'd need to start with a trailer hitch like the Curt part # C11900 which is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Chevy Camaro SS. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # C59236, for a ball mount # C45521, and hitch ball # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or part # 19258 for 2 inch ball.

  • Curt Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1997 Chevy Camaro
  • Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver with Drawbar # 11117 should work well on your 1997 Chevy Camaro with factory dual exhaust. The only model Camaros it will not fit are the RS models. I attached the installation instructions for this hitch for you to check out also. If you plan on using the hitch for a bike rack or a cargo carrier Curt recommends you get a Curt Trailer Hitch Support Strap # 18050 to help provide extra support for the hitch. To complete your towing setup you may be...
