The inside dimension between the upright tabs that would sit against the outer edge of the frame members is 41 inches, while the center to center hole spacing on the tabs that mount to the underside of the frame member is 39 inches. I've shown these dimensions on the photo I've put together for you.
The hitch fits the following vehicles:
• 1991 - 2000 Ford Explorer
• 2001 - 2003 Ford Explorer 2-Door
• 2001 - 2001 Ford Explorer 4-Door
• 1997 - 2001 Mercury Mountaineer
• 1991 - 1994 Mazda Navajo view full answer...
I can't speak to whether or not this is going to fit in your garage or not without knowing at what height they're installed but I can tell you that the Malone TopTier Load Bar Kit for Utility Trailers - 250 lbs # MPG493 are 54" tall. Because this means you're adding 5-1/2 feet to the height of the trailer just with the TopTier, and the J-Pro 2 # MPG117MD adding 16-1/2" I really think this would be a tight squeeze to fit into a standard garage but you'll want to take some measurements to be sure. view full answer...
I went out to the warehouse and found that the diameter of the crosstube for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76034 is 1.90". I use the 4" Carbon Fiber Digital Caliper # PTW80157 to find this measurement.
Please note that this trailer hitch fits a 2011 - 2019 Ford Explorer. If you let me know what you will be using this trailer hitch for I can make additional recommendations if necessary. view full answer...
The Extension for Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18117 is 37" wide and 4" deep measured from the inside of the bars. It's 39-1/4 inches wide on the outside of the bars. It lets you add on to your Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115 for 21 more inches of carrying space.
There is a kit available with the extension # C18117 and the basket # C18115 together, the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115-117.
I linked the baskets and extension, as well as a few review videos for reference. view full answer...
To measure the width of a trailer wheel you will measure from where the tire beads will seat on the wheel. That will be from the inside of the inner wheel flange to the inside of the outer wheel flange, not from edge to edge of the wheel.
To measure the bolt pattern on a wheel with an even amount of lugs ( 4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug ) you will measure from the center of two bolt holes directly across from each other.
If the wheel is a 5-lug wheel you will measure from the center of one hole... view full answer...
The Curt 24x60 Cargo Carrier # C18152 referenced in your question weighs 62 pounds. You are correct that you will need to factor in the weight of the carrier itself when determining if the combined load of the carrier and cargo will fall below the vehicle's and hitch's tongue weight capacity.
I took a look at the online owner's manual for your 2017 Ford Explorer and I am not quite sure what you are referring to with the "E-D-C" load limits. I wasn't able to find a specific tongue weight... view full answer...
The Pro Series Adjustable Pintle Hook Mounting Plate part # 63072 offers up to a 4-1/4" rise if you were to invert the shank. This measurement is taken from the top of the shank to the center of the mounting plate. The actual shank is about 8-3/4" long. The 10-1/2" measurement I think you are referring to is simply the distance from the top of the shank to the center of the mounting plate when at the max rise position of 4-1/4" (while inverted) to the distance from the top of the shank... view full answer...

It looks like a 2017 Explorer XLT weighs right around 4,500 lbs so you would be good to go. I do recommend confirming with your manufacturer what your RV's capacity is if you haven't already.

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643

No, there are not. The aftermarket hitches, like the etrailer item # e55KR, all mount below the original location of the factory hitch on your 2005 Ford Explorer XLT. I have attached a picture below to show you what it will look like once installed.
I saw you were looking at a front hitch. The only one that fits the 2005 Explorers is the Curt item # 31540. It sticks out right below the license plate. view full answer...
I went out into our warehouse to measure the tread depth of the tire on the Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Galvanized Wheel # AM31952 and found it to be .3 of an inch.
The speed rating for the tire is the same for nearly all trailer tires at 65 miles per hour.

On a hinged trailer ramp the hinges will carry a varying portion of the ramp weight depending on the ramp's position. When fully opened/extended the torsion spring will actually be holding more of the ramp's weight that when it is almost fully raised. In the fully vertical position more of the ramp weight is on the hinges since the ramp will be more directly over them.
The M-3 Enclosed Trailer Ramp Spring # CB250D96SHD can lift 250-lbs of ramp weight. You can use a scale to weigh your... view full answer...

When trying to determine the maximum tow capacity of your vehicle, it is important not to exceed the hitch tow rating or the tow rating of your 2005 Ford Explorer (Eddie Bauer edition). Whatever is the lower tow weight capacity of these two ratings, that is the weight capacity that you will adhere to.
With that being said, I did some research on your vehicle and discovered that for a 2005 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition, your maximum towing capacity is 3,400 pounds. If you have a 1-1/4... view full answer...
The center of the receiver openings for the base plate drawbars are 21-1/2 inches above ground level, as shown in the photo I edited for you.

While there are roof racks out there with higher weight ratings, since the roof on your 2019 Ford Explorer Sport is only 45 lbs that will be the limiting factor. So even with something like the Thule WingBar Evo roof rack, parts # TH711420, # TH460R, and # THKIT3151, which has a 165 lb weight rating, you'll actually only be able to carry about 35 lbs of cargo since the roof rack parts will actually take away from the overall weight capacity.

The overall length of the Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part # TH859XT, is 49 inches long. The extender, part # TH8591XT, adds 20 inches. This would bring the overall length of the rack to just 69 inches. I would take a tape measure length of the roof on your Explorer. You would then be able to see how the rack would fit on your roof. The rack attaches to the bars and the crossbars must be between 20 inches and 37 inches so the crossbars must be in that range of distance apart. view full answer...
The roof capacity of your 2016 Ford Explorer is 45 lb since you have panoramic sunroof. The versions of your vehicle that do not have the sunroof have a 100 lb weight capacity.
The Thule Motion XT part # TH629806 that you referenced weighs 20 lbs so you'd have ability to store up to 25 lbs of cargo safely in the box. view full answer...
From what I was able to find online it looks like the 2020 Ford Explorer with the moonroof has a weight capacity of 125 lbs whereas the vehicles without the moonroof have a capacity of 200 lbs. You'd want to stay under that weight with your Yakima SkyBox 21 part # Y07337. view full answer...
