Expert Answers about Buick LaCrosse


  • Does HTAD Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter HTAD Have Solid or Hollow Shank
  • The 1-1/4-inch shank of the Brophy Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter # HTAD is solid, not hollow, so it will not work with an anti-rattle device like # SHP2082. All 1-1/4-inch to 2-inch hitch adapters have a solid shank for strength. With this adapter you can use a standard hitch pin like # PC2 or a lock like # 5200. Any hitch adapter will cause you to lose half of your hitch receiver's rated capacity so be sure to check that the weight of the installed accessory does not exceed this reduced...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2007 Buick LaCrosse
  • Yes, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 36374 is a confirmed fit for all models of the 2007 Buick LaCrosse. This is a Class II trailer hitch with a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 pounds, and a tongue weight capacity of 350 pounds. I have included a link to the installation details and a video showing a typical installation for you to view. If you plan to do some towing the recommended ball mount is # 36061. For a ball, use # 19256 (1-7/8 inch diameter) or # 19258 (2 inch diameter)....

  • Can A Class III Ball Mount Be Used On a Class II Hitch
  • If you're asking whether or not a 2" Reese ball mount can be used with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12115, then the answer is no because this hitch only has an 1 1/4" receiver. Without swapping the hitch out with a 2" hitch you'd have to use a hitch expander like the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # HTAD, but using this expander will cut the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50% which would make the hitch pretty much useless. Your best bet is to just use...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation to Clear My Bumper with the Curt Hitch # C12239 on a 2008 Buick LaCrosse
  • When considering whether you have enough shank length on a bike rack to clear your rear bumper, the only way to know for sure is by measuring the center of the hitch pinhole to the outside surface of your rear bumper. We unfortunately do not have that measurement available for the Curt # C12239 when installed on your vehicle. However, since we do have that measurement available for the Draw-Tite # 36374 on a 2009 model Buick LaCrosse, you most likely do not have enough clearance length...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2015 Buick Lacrosse FWD
  • The Draw-Tite Class II # 36538 or Curt # C12115 are a custom fit for your 2015 Buick Lacrosse FWD. The specific Draw-Tite hitch receiver you referenced will not fit your 2015 Buick Lacrosse FWD. With either option, if you will be towing a trailer you will additionally need a ball mount. I recommend # 36061 which comes with the pin and clip. You will still need a hitch ball like # 19258 for a 2 inch coupler or # 19257 for a 1-7/8 inch coupler. Then the wiring you will need for your hitch...

  • Will CURT Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12115 Fit 2012 Buick LaCrosse
  • From the information I was able to obtain, the item you selected, CURT Trailer Hitch, part # C12115, will fit your 2012 Buick Lacrosse. The wiring you referenced, CURT Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, part # 56098, is the correct wiring kit for your vehicle. For a ball mount use # C45017. To complete your towing setup, you will either need a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball, part # 19256, or 2 inch hitch ball, part # 19258, depending on the size of your trailer coupler. I have linked instructions for...

  • Fitment and Parts Included for Wesbar Trailer Lights 403026 & 403076
  • Yes the Wesbar left side trailer light # 403026 and the right side # 403076 are the correct replacements for the Wesbar light you referenced and they will come with bulbs already included. What makes these different than the old generation Wesbar light, is there is no longer a replaceable capsule that contains the bulb that needs to be replaced. You will only need to replace the bulb itself because the unit is now sealed. If you are in need of a replacement bulb for this unit that is...

  • Will Thule T2 Platform-Style 2 Bike Rack # TH917XTR Fit On a 2012 Buick LaCrosse
  • The Thule T2 Platform-Style 2 Bike Rack, part # TH9045, will fit a 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver. If you have a hitch on your 2012 Buick LaCrosse it should be a 1-1/4 inch size because that it is the only size that is made for that vehicle. You might want to measure the inside of the hitch receiver to make sure it is 1-1/4 inches wide. To determine if the Thule # TH9045 bike rack will work on your vehicle you will need to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on the hitch out to the...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2014 Buick Lacrosse
  • We have a few hitches that are designed to fit your 2014 Buick Lacrosse. I recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, part # 36538. This is a Class ll hitch and has a 1-1/4 receiver opening. The Curt Receiver Hitch, part # C12115 is also a Class ll hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. A tech tip states that all non-trailer loads - bike racks, cargo carriers and so forth - should be supported with stabilizing straps like part # 18050. Failure to properly support these loads will void...

  • Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatibility With a 2015 Buick LaCrosse With Dual Exhaust
  • You will not have any issues mounting the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12115 on your 2015 Buick LaCrosse with the dual exhaust. Since this receiver fits a large selection of Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicles the installation notes will cover all the different vehicles but some steps like lowering the exhaust will not always be necessary. For your LaCrosse I do not see any need to lower the exhaust. Curt recommends using their Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap # 18050 for any hitch mounted...

  • Roof Rack for 2013 Buick Lacrosse to Carry 4 Rhino Rack Hybrid Bike Racks
  • When installing multiple roof bike racks like the Rhino Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack part # RRRBC050-FB what you will want to do is offset the direction of each bike to maximize bar space but it's not the racks that will be the limiting factor and instead is the bikes dimensions. With that said the 49 inch crossbar Rhino Rack roof rack that fits your 2013 Buick LaCrosse part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK225 would be long enough to fit 4 bikes and would work great.

  • Can a Harmar AL160 Scooter Lift be Carried by a 2011 Buick LaCrosse
  • I checked up on the Harmar AL160 scooter lift. It is pretty sweet. According to the specs the hitch height range is 5 to 18 inches. The trailer hitches for your 2011 Buick LaCrosse will be within that range so you would not have to change anything using that lift with a trailer hitch.

  • Will the Draw-Tite # 36374 Fit a 2006 Buick LaCrosse CXS with Dual Exhaust
  • The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 36374 that you referenced is listed to fit all models of the 2006 Buick LaCrosse. We haven't had a chance to test fit this on a LaCrosse with dual exhaust but since the trailer hitch is symmetrical, if the exhaust looks the same on both sides then it will fit no problem! Attached are the installation instructions and a video on a 2009 LaCrosse for you to check out. If you let me know what you will be using this trailer hitch for I can make additional...
