When flat towing a vehicle, there are 5 main components that are needed. Starting with base plates, the 2000 Grand Am will need Roadmaster Base Plates # 194-3. To install this you will need moderate mechanical skills and aptitude. It is hard to say exactly a numerical value for how difficult it would be to install this product, but I am confident that if you have access to basic tools you could accomplish this install. I am going to send you the installation instructions for this product... view full answer...
Your Thule Raceway PRO 3-Bike trunk-mount rack # TH56BV will fit just fine on your 2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT. But please note that Thule does not recommend any of their 3-bike racks for your car due to the potentially high total weight load that would be placed on the trunk lid and hinge.
This is because the OutWay 3 has very sturdy construction that results in a 18.2-lb weight for the carrier. Once you add the weight of three average bikes - about 100-lbs total in most instances of adult... view full answer...
Trailer hitches are divided into Classes by weight carrying and tongue weight capacity. Class I hitches normally, not in all instances, have a 2000 pound towing capacity and Class II hitches normally, not in all cases, have a 3500 pound towing capacity and a 300 to 350 pound tongue weight capacity. For your Grand Prix we have a Class II hitch, the Curt, item # C12225, that will allow you to select bike racks and towing products.
We have help article (see link) that explains hitch classes... view full answer...
I spoke with the manufacturer about your extra exhaust outlet working with the Draw-Tite hitch, part # 36288. If your Grand Am came new with the extra exhaust, then it will fit. If it is an aftermarket add-on, then you may have to modify that exhaust by possibly lowering or relocating it. view full answer...
Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 36288 for your 2004 Pontiac Grand Am will require you to enlarge the two existing holes using a 1/2-inch drill bit. This is noted in step 2 of the linked instructions. I also linked a video showing this hitch installed on a 2002 Grand Am. view full answer...
I am assuming you are looking for the shank that your Blue Ox tow bar attaches to. We do offer several. In researching tow bars and how they are attached, the end of the tow bar that attaches to the base plates should not exceed a rise or drop of 3 inches from the center of the RV hitch receiver.
I recommend the Roadmaster High-Low Hitch Adapter, part # RM-048-6. This adapter measures 9-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the pin hole on the receiver, and has a 6 inch... view full answer...
The installation of rear suspension enhancement kit # TGMRLUM is very straightforward on your 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix. You would start by lifting up the vehicle so that the axle is hanging freely, and you would locate the existing bump stop assembly. Remove the bump stop, but keep the fasteners, as these are used for the suspension kit installation.
Once you have cleared the area, you would install the rubber spring and bracket in the same location, using your OEM fasteners. Finish... view full answer...
I do have a recommendation for you but unfortunately the Thule OutWay, part # TH56BV, is not confirmed to fit your 2004 Pontiac Grand Am. Thule doesn't have any 3-bike racks that are a fit.
Unfortunately, we do not have any 3-bike racks that are specifically designed for vehicles with spoilers. We have the 2 bike carrier by Hollywood Racks that will work with most factory spoilers. It is the Hollywood Racks Expedition 2 bike carrier # HRF6-2. It carries up to 2 bikes that weigh up... view full answer...
To mount the SportRack Skyline XL roof cargo box SR7095 on the roof of your 2000 Pontiac Grand Am would require a roof rack installed with crossbars that are spaced 21-1/2 inches apart. Since the roof racks for your vehicle like the Inno Rack part # INB117, # INSUT, # INJK, and # INK153 have a wider bar spacing of 28 inches this would not be the box to go with. So instead for a similar sized box that would fit you'd want the SportRack box part # SR7016 which would work really well. It's... view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Tow Ready about converter # 118158. He said that at most the converter is rated for 2.1 amps per side for brake and turn signals so it would not work for you.
I recommend going with a kit that bypasses the vehicle wiring such as a bulb and socket kit, # BX8869, or a magnetic kit such as # RM-2120.
I have included some links to articles on tow bar wiring for you that should also help. view full answer...
First you will need to start with a base plate kit for your 2004 Pontiac Grand Am. If you have an SE model you would need the part # 194-3, if you have a GT you would need the part # BX3227.
In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar is the Falcon 2, # RM-520. For safety cables you can use # RM-643. The coiled design helps keep the cables off of... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite # 36288 Class II Trailer Hitch w/ Drawbar is a fit for your 2001 Grand Am SE Coupe. If you'll be towing a light trailer, you'll need a few other items to complete your towing system:
Trailer wiring harness with 4 pin trailer connector # 119178KIT
Ball mount # 36071
2 inch trailer ball # 19258
1-7/8 inch trailer ball # 19256
I've linked an install video for the trailer hitch. view full answer...
The short answer is both. There are attachment points on the bottom of the frame and on the bumper mounts. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.
If you plan on doing some towing, the hitch comes with the correct ball mount, pin, and clip. For a 1-7/8 inch ball, you can use # 19256. For a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring use # 119178KIT. I have linked the wiring instructions as well. view full answer...
Yes, you can tow a small pop-up camper with your 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GT1, as long as the camper does not weigh more than 3,500 lbs. loaded.
But, you will always want to check the owners manual or with the dealer for the gross towing weight capacity of your 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GT1 to make sure the towing capacity is not exceeded.
The Curt 1-1/4 Inch Class II Hitch, # C12225, would be a recommended hitch for your vehicle. It is a Class II hitch which has a 3,500 lbs. towing weight... view full answer...
All of the trailer hitches available for the 2001 Pontiac Grand Am are Class II hitches with 1-1/4 inch receivers (see link). Hitch # C12040 fits all models. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.
The Yakima HoldUp, # Y02433 only fits 2 inch trailer hitch receivers so it will not be compatible with the hitches for your Grand Am. There is a 1-1/4 inch version though, # Y02434. view full answer...
If you have a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am SE you will need the Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit, item # 194-3,
You will need a tow bar to go with the XL base plate kit and I would recommend the RoadMaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar, item # RM-520, which will slide into the receiver on your RV. Wiring can be done in several ways, I would recommend the using the RoadMaster Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs, item # RM-155, if there is space in the taillights to mount the extra bulbs. This system uses the vehicle... view full answer...
The Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # C56175 that you referenced is the correct wiring kit for your 1999 Pontiac Grand Am.
In order to install this you will basically just need a circuit tester like our part # PTW2993 to determine which wire is what on the tail light harness of your vehicle.
Basically you will just wire it up like the box recommends. For the green wire of the converter box you would run a wire to the right turn circuit, the red wire to the stop light circuit, the yellow... view full answer...
Passing the power wire through the fire wall is different on almost every type and year model of vehicle. It sounds like you have found some entry points through the fire wall to wire the power wire of # C59236. If you can find a grommet with fewer wires running through it, you can try to cut a small slit on the side of the grommet and push the power wire through that. It is okay for the power wire to be pass through an existing hole with other wires just be careful not to puncture any... view full answer...
The only trailer hitch designed to fit your 1999 Pontiac Grand Am is the Curt Class II # C12040. This has a 1-1/4" receiver tube rated for up to 350 lbs of tongue weight. You'll need to make sure your wheelchair and carrier combined don't exceed this rating.
Since your wheelchair might obstruct the view of your tail lights I also recommend installing the T-One Wiring # 119178KIT and adding the Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights # C53201 to your carrier (provided it doesn't come with a... view full answer...
