Since everything worked when you hooked up your trailer to another vehicle we know the issue is with your 2000 Ford Excursion. The most likely issue is that you have a blown or missing fuse so check Fuse Location 13 in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel and replace as needed. I do recommend checking your owner's manual to confirm this is the location.
You will also want to check your Excursion's plug for corrosion, which can be green or white in color. A build-up of corrosion can interfere... view full answer...
Yes, the Aries Automotive Seat Defender Bench Seat Protector with Headrest Covers - Universal Fit can certainly be installed on a vehicle without headrests, or in other words, you do NOT need to install the headrest cover that comes with the kit.
For your 2005 Ford Excursion, the third row seating can be protected with one of the following options from Aries:
-gray # AA3146G
-black # AA3146B
-brown # AA3146BR
-camo # AA3146C view full answer...
There will most likely be issues associated with using two different length trailer axles together therefore I recommend you replace the older one with the same dimensions as the one you just had installed. If you were to leave the different length axles on the trailer you could have issues with tracking as well as irregular tire wear patterns. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend the use of wheel spacers as these place too much stress on the lug studs.

The Firestone Single Gauge HD Compressor kit part # F2097 would be a great way to monitor air pressure and inflate the bags of the Firestone kit part # F2255 that fits your 2001 Ford Excursion but you do not have to use a compressor at all if you don't want to. You could get by without a compressor at all installed on your vehicle and just inflate the bags at home if you wanted. view full answer...

The orientation of the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 does not matter. We have tested it on vehicles with 7-way's oriented in all different directions and it has performed flawlessly. The range for this device is 50' so as long as your motorhome is not longer than this then there should not be any issues. The 12 volt circuit on the 7-way must be active for this device to work, that is all. view full answer...
When you purchase the etrailer Trailer Coupler Latch Lock - 7/8" Span - 1/4" Diameter - Stainless Steel item # e98890 you will select the number of locks you want that are going to be keyed alike.

You will just need to make sure you check them all out at the same time.
If you already own multiple locks there is no way... view full answer...
When looking for a roof cargo basket for your 2002 Ford Excursion you simply need to measure the distance between the center of your front crossbar to the center of your rear crossbar. Cargo baskets typically have a crossbar spread range that they are compatible with.
If you are looking for a great basket that will cover a large portion of your roof then the Yakima MegaWarrior # Y07080-82 is hard to beat. It measures 74" long x 48" wide x 6-1/2" tall and is compatible with crossbar spreads... view full answer...
The 2 Firestone spacer kits that you mentioned, # F2371 and # F2370, each fit different types of Firestone Ride-Rite kits. First, style # F2371 fits on Ride-Rite models that mount to the vehicle axle. The other one, # F2370, fits on models that mount to the leaf spring stack.
The kit that you have, # F2251, is an axle mounted kit so you would need spacers # F2371.
The spacer kit used needs to be same as the amount of lift on the vehicle. So if the ride height increased by 4 inches you... view full answer...
You will need to determine the flow of the transmission fluid in order to install the aftermarket cooler in-line with the factory.
The fluid needs to travel from the transmission, to the factory cooler, to the aftermarket cooler, then back to the transmission. One of the fittings on your transmission should be marked RETURN. Trace this line back to the factory cooler.
Disconnect this line from the factory cooler, and reconnect it to which ever end of the aftermarket cooler you choose... view full answer...
The only thing that comes close to those dimensions is the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket # SPS5084. This measures 84" long x 50" wide x 5" deep. Aside from the length this meets all of your other criteria. You will also need two of the Adapter for Surco Safari Roof Racks # SPCH100 which will allow you to install the basket on your 2001 Excursion.
The price is a bit high on the Surco but no other roof basket comes close in size. For a more budget friendly option, we also have... view full answer...

The main glass on the passenger side of the K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors # KS61095-96F is flat glass so it does not have the, "objects in mirror are closer than they appear" message because the image is not distorted for a wider viewing angle that would make things look closer than they really are. view full answer...
The Replacement Hitch Tite Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin for Saris Bike Racks part # SA3021 uses a 1/2"-13 bolt. I am not sure what you mean by pin diameter as the above is a bolt, not a pin but if this was not the information you were looking for please just let me know. view full answer...
The Hydrastar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator w/ Breakaway and 7-Way RV Harness # HS381-9066 is exactly what I recommend for your boat trailer. This comes with everything needed to upgrade your surge disc brake setup to an electric over hydraulic setup and gives you the most reliable and best performing actuator out there. The housing is also aluminum so it would do really well in a salt water setting.
The P3 part # 90195 with the custom install harness part # 3035-P would be the... view full answer...
For a front mount hitch for your 2005 Ford Excursion I recommend the Draw-Tite # 65022. Installation of the hitch requires the drilling of two holes that are 5/8-inch, however there is no welding required.
This hitch bolts to the rear of your front bumper so for the installation you need to remove your tow hooks and fog lamps, and finally, you will need a torque wrench to secure the included hardware. The installation instructions are attached.

I am glad to hear you and your horses are all right after the hitch broke while you were driving!
For your 2000 Ford Excursion I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class IV - 2" # C14011 as it is confirmed to fit your vehicle, and since it has a 1200lb tongue weight rating and 12000lb trailer weight rating so it will have no issues with your horse trailer with 4 horses.
I included a picture of the # C14011 installed on an Excursion for you to take a look at. view full answer...
The part # BBS-1103 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2005 Ford Excursion and can only be mounted along the front doors. For a similar set that could be installed anywhere along the doors the # CARR104811-1 would be a similar set that would work great.
These are a universal style install that will require you to select the correct mounting location based on the setup of your vehicle. I would recommend you install them around the body support instead of cutting it.

It does sound like the display on your Draw-Tite Activator II has gone bad and the unit will need to be replaced. We do not carry the Activator II and I highly recommend upgrading to a proportional brake controller, which is going to give you more efficient braking that decreases the wear on both your trailer and Excursion's brakes.
If you have been happy with the Tekonsha brand, they offer a proportional controller, the Brake EVN # TK63VR would be a good option. view full answer...
