  • Electrical Cord and Adapter to Connect 50-Amp Motorhome Power Inlet to Standard Household Outlet
  • Motorhome 50-amp male power inlets require a cord with a 50 Amp Twist Lock female plug like the one on the Mighty Cord 25-foot # A10-3050EDBK. But since the other end of this cord has a 30-amp male connector, not a 15-amp household supply male connector, you will also need a dogbone adapter # A10-1530HVP to give you the standard 120V male plug to connect to a household outlet.

  • Parts Needed to Attach Roof Rack to a 2017 Ford Edge

  • Is Supplemental Brake System Required When Flat-Towing 2014 Ford Edge
  • A supplemental brake system is one of the five items you need when flat towing any vehicle. The brake system I recommend is the Stay-IN-Play DUO # SM99251. It's one of the easiest systems to use after the initial install. You just flip a switch to activate it. If you do not have all of the equipment needed to flat-tow your Edge I will make some recommendations for you. For base plates I recommend part # 4408-1 if your vehicle does not have EcoBoost and does not have Adaptive Cruise...

  • Battery Keeps Dying When Flat Towing 2014 Ford Edge
  • What you are looking for is the Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25. This will allow you to keep your battery charged via the 12V power feed from your motorhome while you use the SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO # SM99251. I am not sure what wiring you have on your Ford Edge but I typically recommend installing the Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 which will activate the lighting functions on your vehicle and allow you to wire the charge line kit to the center pin. For a complete flat towing setup you will...

  • How To Flat Tow A 2008 Ford Edge With 4 Wheels Down
  • Per the manufacturer, you can both flat and dolly tow a two wheel drive 2008 Ford Edge. If you have the all wheel drive model, you can only use a flat towing setup. For both the two and four wheel drive models, I recommend flat towing your vehicle with four wheels down as this will be the best option for frequent uses. For a flat towing setup you will first need a base plate kit such as the Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit part # 4408-1. The Roadmaster base plate kit has a removable arm feature...

  • Equipment Needed to Flat Tow 2021 Ford Edge
  • If your 2021 Ford Edge is an ST model, with the 2.7L Eco Boost engine it can be flat towed. Otherwise, it'll need to be trailered. For base plates, I'd recommend the Blue Ox # BX2677 base plate kit along with a # BX7380 Blue Ox Alpha tow bar. The tow bar is non binding for easy unhooking and is self centering so you don't need to have the vehicle perfectly lined up behind the motorhome. Just hook up and pull away, and the tow bar will align itself automatically. Safety cables are included...

  • Roof Rack and Kayak Carriers for 2 Kayaks on 2012 Ford Edge
  • The Rhino-Rack ROC 25 # RR38SR system will work well for your 2012 Ford Edge, but I do recommend confirming the capacity of your roof compared to the kayaks you're carrying in order to make sure that you won't be overloading it. To carry your kayaks, you'll want to use 2 of the Rhino-Rack J-style Kayak Carriers # S510, which will attach to the vortex aero bars that come with the ROC 25 system. These carriers come with the straps included to secure your kayaks to the carriers and vehicle,...
