  • How Can the Reese Low- Profile Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Be Installed as Low as Possible
  • The Reese Low-Profile 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30054 is designed to be mounted directly onto your truck's frame. Or if not the frame some sort of strong steel support connected to the frame.

You also have to take the clearance between the trailer and the deck into consideration. You'll...

  • Will The Kuat Piston SR KU32VR Work With A 29+ Bike Tire
  • Kuat does specify that a 29" tire is the largest tire that the Piston Pro SR # KU32VR will accommodate. In the case of a 29"+ tire It will still work well. The "+" refers to the width of the tire rather than the diameter. The 29+ tires are generally between 3" to 5" wide. The Piston Pro will accommodate larger tires, up to 5" wide. As long as your wheelbase is less than 53" you will still be able to ratchet each arm securely in to place.

  • Will Thule AirScreen XT Fit OEM Crossbars on a 2022 Volkswagen Golf GTI
  • The AirScreen XT should have no issues fitting the OEM crossbars on your 2022 Volkswagen Golf GTI. I believe the 38" # TH72WV should work but I'll need to know the distance between the legs on your roof rack to make an accurate recommendation. Please note your crossbars are a little taller than the average aftermarket so the fairing may not sit all the way down to your roof but it will be better than a big opening! Attached is a review video for you to check out.

At this point in time there aren't any custom-fit harnesses for your vehicle so a universal fit like this is what you'll need to use. The instructions for this wiring kit can be a little intimidating but if you're into DIY...
