  • Does the 2002 Ford F-250 Have a Factory Brake Controller
  • For clarification, I don't believe that a factory integrated brake controller was available on Ford trucks until 2009. For that reason it won't be present on your 2002 Ford F-250. Judging by the question you were referred from, this neighbor was referring to the factory plug that allows you to use a plug and play adapter to install your aftermarket brake controller like the # 3035-P instead of hard wiring. You will need to install a brake controller and, if you don't have one on the truck...

  • Replacement Locking Door Latch for 1996 Puma with "1066" On Lock Face
  • I may have a solution for you but I'm not seeing any keys or locks we have that use the "1066" code that you're referring to, so the best solution might be to replace the door handles and locks. You can use something like the Global Link RV Entry Door Locking Latch Kit # 295-000019. This latch will fit on doors that are 1-1/4" to 1-1/2" thick and fits in latch cutouts that are between 2-1/2" wide x 3-1/2" tall to a maximum of 3" wide x 4" tall. If you've got a different sized cutout or...

  • What is the Best Hitch for Towing a Utility Trailer on My 2022 Jeep Compass?
  • The best hitch for towing a light utility trailer on your 2022 Jeep Compass is the Curt Hitch - 2" # C13363.

  • Hardware Needed For Brophy Tailgate Scissor Step Mounting Bracket
  • The hardware is not included so it does need to be purchased separately for the Brophy Tailgate Scissor Step Mounting Bracket # TSSB. Brophy does not sell the hardware to go with it, so you will need to get it locally at a hardware store, and it is just four 1/4" x 1-1/2" long lag screws.

  • Smart Battery Charger for 12V Car Batteries
  • For your Toyota RAV4 and charging 12V car batteries I recommend the NOCO Genius Smart Battery Charger - AC to DC - 6V/12V - 10 Amp item # 329-GENIUS10. The NOCO Genius charges and maintains lead acid and lithium-ion batteries. It has a start voltage sensor that detects dead batteries as low as 1 volt. The multi-stage charging algorithm charges 2x faster than traditional chargers without overcharging. It analyzes the battery's condition to provide a customized charge.

  • Can Hitch Extenders Be Used With Weight Distribution
  • If you had a 2-1/2 inch receiver on your truck, you could use something like the Reese # RP45292 cut down to 24 inches, but a 2-1/2 inch hitch isn't typically found on an F-150. This extender is specifically designed for this purpose. If you have a 2 inch hitch, you won't want to use a hitch extender, the extra 'joint' between the hitch and the load would allow too much movement and too much stress on the connection between the extender and the shank, which could cause the connection point...

  • Parts Needed To Add A Brake Controller To A 1996 Ram 3500 With A 4 Flat Plug
  • Already having a 4 Flat on your 1996 Ram 3500 actually gets you partly there, so it is a very good start. Our Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 will actually piggyback off that 4 Flat you currently have and then includes all the wires needed to run up the the battery and cab, plus all the brackets and circuit breakers. I included an install video we did on a 99 Ram with a different controller, but it will be the exact same way you will be doing it. From there,...

  • For your 2005 Ford F-250 the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50026 you referrenced is not a fit for your vehicle as they were designed for newer Ford trucks. Instead, the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50082 is what you'd want to use assuming you already have base rails. If you do not have base rails then the complete Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches...

  • How to Determine Frame Width When Building Trailer with 7K Axles
  • I would be more than happy to help you get everything together that you need for the suspension on your gooseneck trailer for your tiny house!

  • Taillight Wiring Harness for Towing 2021 Ford F-150 Behind Motorhome
  • Although we have wiring harness options that will work for your truck, the Hopkins # HM56009 taillight harness for towed vehicles wouldn't work for your 2021 Ford F-150, it only fits up through the 2020 model year. I'd recommend using a diode kit like part # RM-15267, that would install as shown in the video I've linked for you. You'll also want to use a # RM-156-25 charge line kit to keep the truck's battery topped off while you're towing the vehicle. I've also linked to an install video...
