How to Install a Standard Brake Controller on a 2020 Land Rover Discovery
I can definitely help you get a brake controller installed on your 2020 Land Rover Discovery, but it might be a little more difficult simply because none of our brake controller manufacturers have a pigtail fitment confirmed for under the dash, and I wasn't able to find an online copy of the owner's manual to see if one even exists - this is why we have tee-in fitments listed like the Curt Echo In-Line # C79DR. If you can confirm that you have a pigtail underneath the dash on your driver's...

Does Stealth Hitch for 2020 Land Rover Discovery Fit with Full Size Spare
That is correct. If your 2020 Land Rover Discovery has the full sized spare it would have to be left off to install the Stealth Hitch part # SH97GR. One option would be to track down a smaller spare.

Troubleshooting A Chirping Noise Coming From An Atwood Rooftop AC Unit
I spoke with Dometic and they didn't think the the chirp was coming from the rooftop unit of your # AT15027-22. I recommend removing the shroud and ensuring the compressor and all other parts are completely tightened down and there's not debris possibly in the unit. You should also have a licensed technician check the Freon levels because either too low or too high Freon levels will cause different noises.

Adding Sway Control to 2018 Land Rover Discovery without Weight Distribution Hitch
You are correct in looking at the Curt Ball Mount w/ Sway Control Tab for 2" Hitches # D320. The hitch rating on the trailer is a class IV rating as a maximum. The ball mount you see is still within the maximum weight of your Keystone Premier Ultra Bullet so you will be fine. This also will give you the closest possible fit for your tow ball height requirement by Land Rover. For the ball use 2-5/16" Hitch Ball - 1" Diameter # C40007. It has the 1" diameter shank that you need for the ball...

Trailer Connector for 2004 Land Rover Discovery
Unfortunately, we do not offer anything that would plug into the connector you've shown. Your best bet would be to use the # 119178KIT you referred to and tap into the existing taillight circuits. You'll want to access the taillight wiring harness and use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to identify which wire carries which circuit. The red wire taps into the brake lamp circuit, the green into the right turn, the yellow into the left turn and the brown into the taillight circuit. The white...

Will a Trailer Hitch Affect the Install of a Brake Controller on a 2018 Land Rover Discovery HSE
The installation of a trailer hitch on the 2018 Land Rover Discovery HSE will not have any impact on the installation of a brake controller so no worries there! I would recommend an aftermarket hitch but there does not appear to be one for that vehicle, which seems odd. If it turns out that they cannot install an in cab brake controller we do have the new Autowbrake # 3430001 which installs just on the trailer and only needs a functioning 7-Way trailer connector to operate. I have linked...

Fix Potential Hyper Flashing On 2017 Land Rover Discovery
I understand your concern that some newer vehicles have to recognize that a trailer is plugged into the connector in order for the towing functions to activate. When a trailer has LED lights the power draw is very low, but that's one advantage of LED lights. However since the power draw is so low the vehicle doesn't recognize the trailer and therefore doesn't turn on the towing features. Another cause could be that the 2017 Land Rover Discovery recognizes the lights being on the circuit...

What is the Coiled and Straightened Length of the Blue Ox Coiled Electrical Cord # BX8861
I went out to the warehouse and pulled a Blue Ox 4-Wire, Coiled Electrical Cord with 4-Way, Round Plugs, # BX8861, to take some measurements for you. When coiled up, from end to end it measures about 38 inches long. When stretched out to the maximum it measures 176 inches. However, ideally you would keep the cable only stretched to around 7 feet to avoid the harness coming unplug or damaged. The harness will coil back up after being stretched.

Weight Distribution System Recommendation for Trailer with 600 lb Tongue Weight
The great thing about weight distribution systems is that the weight of them does not get considered as additional tongue weight. Our manufacturers have fielded this question from us several times and their stance is that the WD system essentially becomes part of the hitch so you would not consider it's weight as additional tongue weight. We have the Reese system part # RP66541 which weighs 74 lbs and has a tongue weight range of 400 to 800 lbs like what would work well on your trailer. For...

Can Curt Mobile Echo Brake Controller Install in 2020 Land Rover Discovery with Vertical Mount 7-Way
Is there any way you could reposition the 7-way? That would be the easiest way to use the Curt Mobile Echo part # C51180. We also have an under dash version of this brake controller with the part # C27JR which might be an easier option for you but this would require hardwiring to the vehicle.

Kayak Carrier Solution that Holds Boat Higher than LockRack For Hatch Clearance
There isn't a safe way to raise the height of a LockRack kayak carrier like # LR54FR. It might be best to go with a taller carrier or a J-style which would hold the kayaks at angle and would raise up the rear end of the kayak and give you the clearance like with the part # TH849000.
