  • How to Pick Out the Correct Rise/Drop Ball Mount for a 2005 Dodge Magnum
  • When we installed the Curt Hitch part # 13465 on a 2005 Dodge Magnum the top of the hitch opening ended up being 10 inches from the ground. To determine what ball mount you would need to tow your trailer level you will want to take your trailer on level ground, with the trailer sitting as level as possible and measure the distance from the bottom of the coupler to the ground.

  • Parts Needed to Install Brake Controller in 2005 Dodge Magnum
  • You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # C55562.

  • Recommendation for Hitch, Bike Rack, and Cargo Carrier on a 2005 Dodge Magnum
  • I recommend going with the Curt Class III Hitch, # 13465, which is designed specifically for your 2005 Dodge Magnum. Curt does require the use of Stabilizing Straps, # 18050, with all non-trailer loads like bike racks and car carriers. For a rack that will allow access to the rear cargo area with the bikes loaded, you will want to take a look at the Thule Apex Swing Bike Carrier, # TH9027XT. This swinging rack will carry 4 bikes and is loaded with features like the cushioned anti-sway...

  • Solution for Extending Recessed Trailer Hitch on 2007 Dodge Magnum
  • It sounds like the trailer hitch for your 2007 Dodge Magnum is pretty recessed behind the rear bumper. If you are having trouble using a hitch-mounted accessory like a bike rack or cargo carrier without it interfering with the bumper, a good solution is a hitch extender like the Brophy # HE06. This particular unit will insert into a 2 inch hitch receiver and provide you with a 7-3/8 inch extension. I have attached a link that will take you to our complete selection of hitch extensions that...
