Is Transmission Cooler Needed for 2010 Ford Edge
If indeed your Edge already has a transmission cooler, and it is the same one that would have come with the vehicle had it been equipped with the Factory Towing Package, you do not need to add an additional cooler. I would strongly recommend verifying that the cooler you have is the same as with the tow package. Towing near the upper limit of the vehicle towing capacity is hard on a transmission, having a cooler is essential. I would also recommend verifying the towing capacity of your...

Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2004 Cadillac DeVille
For your 2004 Cadillac DeVille, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class II Frame Receiver Hitch # 36287. This Class II trailer hitch is custom-designed and confirmed to fit your vehicle. It has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and a 3,500 pound towing capacity, although you will also want to check the capacity for the vehicle itself as listed in the owner's manual. I recommend this hitch over the Curt alternative also confirmed to fit your vehicle because unlike Curt, Draw-Tite does not require the...

Recommended Replacement Trailer Tires for Tent Trailer to Replace 155R12 Tires
We do offer both bias ply and radial ST-type trailer tires in a 12-inch wheel size although a ST155R12 is not among them. In a radial type we have size ST145/80-12 tires in Load Range D or E, which are rated for 1,220-lbs at 65-psi and 1,520-lbs at 80-psi, respectively. These are only 10mm narrower than your current tires and would work fine on 4-inch wide rims. You can see both items on the linked page, parts # AM10130 and # AM10140. It is a good idea to have more weight carrying capacity...

Snow Tire Chain Recommendation for 1995 Cadillac DeVille with 215/70-15 Tires
I found a copy online of an owner's manual for a 1995 Cadillac DeVille and in the section under "Tire Chains it stated that you can use tire chains but they must be Class S chains and on the front tires only. For your '95 DeVille with 215/70-15 tires I highly recommend the Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains # TH01221100 because their D-shape links provide great traction and they are made from manganese nickel alloy steel for both optimum durability and resistance to corrosion. These are...

Roof Rack System for a 1996 Cadillac DeVille
I do have an option for you but the Inno Square Crossbar System part # INB127, part # INSUT, and part # INK153 is not a confirmed fit for your 1996 Cadillac DeVille. Unfortunately, at this time we do not have a custom fit roof rack for your vehicle. What I can offer you is a universal crossbar like part # DTA968 as this is the only crossbar we have that would work for you.

Using H4 Headlight Bulbs with 3 Prongs on 1964 Cadillac with 2 Prong Receptacle
My dad used to have a 1967 Cadillac Sedan DeVille. I have been inside and out of the car helping him work on it. I think your best option is to use wiring harness # P239003HD. It has a 3-prong receptacle and the wiring for the bulb. Better yet you could use # P230004HW which includes the heavier wire and receptacles along with relays to protect the old wiring on your Caddy.

Towing Compatibility of 1969 Cadillac DeVille
The large motors in those old Cadillacs (in your case the 7.7L V8) will allow you to tow a trailer that is 2,500 lbs. If your vehicle brakes are in good working order you will be able to stop a fully loaded trailer that size as well. Anything larger, and I'd definitely recommend using a brake controller like # 90195 and that would be the best route if your travel trailer has brakes anyway. If that is the case let me know and I'll help you get the wiring you need as this is the safest...

Hitch Placement of Draw-Tite Hitch part # 36287 on a 2001 Cadillac DeVille

The picture shows the drawbar in the hitch, but the drawbar can be removed when not in use. You will not be able to see much of the hitch unless you kneel down level with the car.

What Hitch do You Recommend for My 1962 Cadillac DeVille Convertable?
I have a creative solution for you. Unfortunately, we do not carry a customized-fit option for a hitch on your 1962 Cadillac DeVille convertable. The only option we have is to use a universal hitch like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver - 18"-51" Wide # C13701. The Curt universal hitch comes with adjustable brackets that will fit frames between 18-51 inches wide. In order to make sure that your frame falls within these dimensions, I recommend that you measure your frame (from side...

Trailer Hitch Options for a 2004 Cadillac DeVille
The only trailer hitches available for the 2004 Cadillac DeVille are Class II trailer hitches. I have included a link to them for you to the right. I am assuming you need a Class III hitch because you need the 2 inch receiver for an accessory of some kind. You may be able to still use a 2 inch accessory by using an adapter, # HTAD, but keep in mind that the use of an adapter reduces the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by 50 percent. Curt hitch # C12058 has the highest tongue...
