Expert Answers about Chevrolet Express Van


  • Why Do the Same Class Trailer Hitches for a 2018 Chevy Express Van Not Have the Same Rating
  • In regards to class ratings (I, II, III, IV, V), these are used to help group trailers hitches together by weight capacity. That said, the group consists of a range rather than a hard number which is why you can see trailers hitches with the same class rating but different weight capacity. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 14090 is a great option for a 2018 Chevrolet Express Van and has the class IV rating you're after. It will provide more than enough capacity for the vehicle.

  • Will the Roadmaster Steering Stabilizer Help Death Wobble on a 2009 Chevy Express Conversion Van
  • The Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-RBK17-RSSC, will definitely help with the death wobble on your 2009 Chevrolet Express conversion van, however, I first recommend having your front end inspected. With 90,000 miles on a 5 year old vehicle, it is possible that there are some loose front steering and suspension components that could create the uncontrollable shaking. Even a steering stabilizer would have difficulty eliminating death wobble if there are loose components.

  • Side Camera for Furrion Camera System
  • The Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Observation Camera System w/ Side Marker Light Cameras - 5" Screen # FCE48TASL-05 is a great system that will allow you to have the side cameras. You don't need to replace your current LED's if you like them, you will simply add these in addition. The Furrion system only has the side cameras that are integrated into the lights. The bulb may be replaced with an LED replacement if you want all LED lights. There are side camera that don't include a light...

  • Is the Kodiak K2HR79E Rotor Able to be Separated from the Hub?
  • The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR79E is not able to be separated, but I do have another option available. The Dexter Disc Brake Kit - 12-1/4" Hub/Rotor - Grease - 8 on 6-1/2 - E-Coat - 8,000 lbs # K71-635-90 will use the same bearings and will be able to be separated, making replacements easier if needed. The E-coat finish provides corrosion resistance for freshwater and limited saltwater use as well. With this also being made in the U.S.A., it will be a great option.

  • Is it Normal for a Friction Sway Control Unit like Curt 17200 to Be Noisy
  • The noise you're hearing is pretty typical for a friction sway control like the Curt # 17200 and there's really no getting around it because adding lubrication would cause the sway control to be ineffective.

  • Will Timbren Suspension Enhancement Make The Ride Smoother On 2014 Chevrolet Express Van
  • The Timbren Vehicle Suspension, part # TGMFK15A is not designed to make the ride softer on your 2014 Chevrolet Express van. The Timbrens are designed to actually do the opposite. As more weight is added to the van, they become more rigid. They will help with the sag but not make the van ride easier. Putting stiffer springs on the van as your friend suggested would only make the ride more rigid. The spring spacers like part # CSS-1168F would perform in the same manner as the Timbren springs...

  • How To Reduce Vibration Of The K-Source Towing Mirror KS62169-70G On The Highway When Towing
  • Yes, there is a way to help correct the vibration in the K-Source Mirrors # KS62169-70G. When looking at the mirror, if you push in on the bottom of the mirror all the way, when looking at the top of the mirror you will see a Philips head bolt in the gap which is exposed a the top of the mirror. Tightening this bolt a small amount (not to much because its made out of plastic) will make the mirror more stable. I attached a video link below showing how the tightening is done.

  • Color of Buyers Products LED Dome Light
  • I reached out to the manufacturer, Buyers Products, and they did not have the Kelvins of the Buyers Products LED Dome Light # 3375625336 as one of their specs. Having said that, based on what the light looks like when powered on - as you can see in the linked video review - it is a pretty clear light so a best guess is somewhere in the 4,000 Kelvins range. This light is 5" in diameter, has 36 diodes, and is designed to work with a 12 volt power source.

  • Can A MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe Wiggle Free From Road Vibrations
  • The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # MA00-07500K weighs approximately 18lbs. In my experience if the vent is installed correctly the lid of it will disintegrate from UV rays long before it would ever wiggle free and fall off the RV. Since you're installing this in a van the you'll want to build a frame, like you can see in the attached video below, and thicken the roof up to a minimum of 1". This will give the vent a nice sturdy base to mount to. You'll need to use some butyl tape...

  • Changing a Trailer Ramp Door To Barn Doors On A 6x14 V-Nose Enclosed Trailer
  • To create barn doors out of your ramp door, you will need hinges and a latch. I suggest a latch/lock system like the Universal Cam-Door Lock for Enclosed Trailers - 1" Keeper, # 383200. This will use a 3/4 inch diameter pipe that you'll have to get at a local hardware store, but the bridge-type keeper prevents accidental opening and ensures safe locking action. It will also allow you to use a separate lock like # ML1KA to secure your cargo. We will also need hinges similar to Strap...

  • Does Timbren Suspension Enhancement System Change Ride Height of 1998 Chevy Express Van
  • Because the use of the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System does not affect the empty ride height of the vehicle, you would be able to see no differences between a before and after installation photo. Once the vehicle is loaded to a certain point, the rubber springs that take the place of the factory bump stops will contact the axle and keep the vehicle from sagging further. The system greatly improves ride quality of loaded vehicles, and also helps reduce body roll that is felt during...

  • Is the Replacement Lid for MaxxAir MaxxFans MA05-30510 Opaque or Translucent
  • The Replacement Lid for MaxxAir MaxxFans # MA05-30510 is made of opaque white plastic (not clear plastic). The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent # MA00-05301K that this part fits is a powered vent with a fan/motor assembly. Since that part of the vent would block much of any light that gets through the lid there would not be much value in having a translucent lid on this particular vent. A manual vent that does not have a fan/motor, such as # V2092SP-28 from Ventline, does have a white lid that...

  • Can 20,000-lb Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System Be Ordered With 2-Inch Shank
  • The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System, part # BXW2000 we carry is designed for a 2-1/2 inch trailer hitch. We do not offer it with a 2-inch option, because using a 2-inch shank would lower the weight capacity of the system. The highest rated Blue Ox SwayPro system with a 2-inch shank we offer is part # BXW1500. This system is rated for 15,000-lb gross towing weight and 1,500-lb maximum tongue weight.
