Expert Answers about Dodge Journey


  • Options for Storing 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Connector
  • Draw-Tite hitch # 76225 is an excellent choice for a clean installed appearance on your 2018 Dodge Journey. As for the 4-pole connector mount you have two ways to go. Some towers prefer to keep the 4-pole wiring tucked inside the vehicle except when they are actually pulling their trailer. The wisdom to this is that the 4-pole is then protected from corrosion from moisture and salt, and also from a potential hit from road debris. If you are towing all the time then stowing the 4-pole...

  • Wiring Harnesses for a 2013 Dodge Journey
  • The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e98845 does not come with a wiring harness. This is a custom fit 2" hitch receiver for a 2013 Dodge Journey.

This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness which is located behind the driver's and passenger's-side...

  • How to Use Longer Yakima or Thule Crossbars for a 2009 Dodge Journey
  • If you have longer bars from Yakima, like the 70" JetStream part # Y00427OR the 70" CoreBar # Y00423, then all you need for your 2009 Dodge Journey are the TimberLine Towers # Y33TR. If you happen to have Yakima round bars then you need the adapter # Y03536 as well. For your Thule bars you will need to use the Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 with the 69" ProBar Evo Crossbars # TH713600 as the aero-style Thule bars have a limited mounting space underneath them and I don't think it will...

  • Parts Needed For Towing With 2014 Dodge Journey
  • It sounds like your customer needs their 2014 Dodge Journey set up for towing. Yes, in addition to the # 76225 and a ball mount like the # 989900 they will also need wiring to power the trailer's signal lights.

  • 4-Pole Trailer Wiring Harness for 2017 Dodge Journey with LED and Incandescent Tail Lights

The typical small utility trailer that one might use to get a load of mulch will often not have lights (or trailer brakes, for that matter). But we can certainly help you with a 4-pole wiring harness for basic trailer lighting functions if you will be towing a trailer with lights. On your 2017 Dodge Journey the choice of wiring harness depends on the type of tail lights the car has. If...

  • Recommended Parts to Tow a Trailer with a 2015 Dodge Journey
  • Certainly. I recommend the Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver, part # 76225. I like that once it's installed you only see the open receiver tube and not the crossbeam. It is a more difficult install and requires you to cut some fascia on your 2015 Dodge Journey. I've linked the video from when we installed it along with the install details for you. If you prefer an eaier install then look at the Curt # C13201. To install the Curt you need to temporarily remove the spare tire and lower...

  • LED Trailer Lights to Replace Bargman # 30-92-002
  • The closest LED tail light we carry to Bargman # 30-92-002 that you referenced is part # 328-003-81M1 for the passenger's side and # 328-003-81LM1 for the driver's side. They're fairly close in size but don't have the reverse light circuit like the Bargman lights do.

  • Where Does Black 12V Power Wire for Prodigy P2 Brake Controller Connect to Vehicle
  • To hardwire a Prodigy P2 brake controller # 90885 in your 2016 Dodge Journey you will need to make the 12V input power connection (for the black wire) at the positive battery post, going through a circuit breaker like 20-amp # PK54520. This value circuit breaker will be fine for trailers having up to 4 brake assemblies but if your trailer has more than 4 braked wheels then instead use a higher-value breaker # 38630 which is rated for 30-amps. The other wires from the P2 (red, white and...
