I do have a solution to mount the Thule Cargo Carrier # TH859XT to your 2005 Pontiac Montana, and the item you selected, Rhino-Rack Crossbars, part # RRVA118B-2 will work with the Thule Cargo Carrier # TH859XT.
You will want to make sure not to exceed the load carrying capacity of your vehicle roof as stated in the vehicle owners manual.
I have linked a video review of the Thule Cargo Carrier # TH859XT, and an FAQ on roof racks. view full answer...
The Curt trailer hitch # 13344, is a fit for a 2003 Pontiac Montana. The hitch fits all models of the 2003 Montanas. In terms of the different hitches available, see link, they will all look similar once installed. The receiver will be visible but most of the crosstube will be hidden behind the rear fascia.
There are both 2 inch and 1-1/4 inch hitches available for this vehicle. The Curt hitch is a Class III with a 2 inch receiver. The 2 inch hitches are more versatile than the 1-1/4... view full answer...
You are correct in assuming the Dual Cam System will give you at the very least a stiffer ride, but the system may prove to be ineffective as well. It is very important to match the weight distribution system tongue weight (TW) capacity to your specific application. For instance, using spring bars with a higher TW capacity than a trailer calls for can lead to erratic weight distributing performance.
To choose a system you will need to go by the total tongue weight. This is calculated by... view full answer...
For replacement trailer hitch hardware, you will want to use part # RHK. Simply enter the trailer hitch part number and manufacturer name and we will assemble the hardware kit for that hitch for you. This will be the hardware only.
If the trailer hitch you purchased in 2009 was not originally for the 2003 Pontiac Montana, then I strongly recommend determining if the hitch will fit that vehicle before purchasing the hardware. Trailer hitches are customer made for certain vehicles, which... view full answer...
Since the trailer lights work fine on a different vehicle, I would start looking at the trailer connector on the 2001 Pontiac Montana. If there is any corrosion build up inside the connector, then that can cause a poor connection and cause the issue you are describing.
If the vehicle side connector is cleaned out, you can go on to testing the converter itself. Start by testing the wiring going into the converter from the vehicle using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed. If the wiring... view full answer...
It sounds like you have the ground taken care of. Are you using a tail light converter? Part # C55355 is the converter offered for your vehicle. The factory does provide the port for the towing wiring, but a converter is still needed.
If you have a converter installed already, I would recommend testing the wires on the input side of the converter. You should have 12-volts entering and exiting the converter while each function is activated. view full answer...

First of all, you will need to install a brake controller. I would recommend a proportional controller, such as the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 part # 90885. To install the controller, we offer a Brake Controller Install Kit, part # ETBC7. The kit includes everything necessary for installing your controller, including the 4 to 7-way adapter.
The adapter would plug into your existing 4-way plug, with four wires remaining. The blue wire would run to the passenger compartment, to carry the output... view full answer...
The Hopkins Backup Alert would replace a 3156 bulb. I checked an online copy of the 2005 Pontiac Montana, and found that the reverse light bulb on your van is a 3156.

You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 56077.
From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake... view full answer...

I recommend the Kuat Pivot Swing Away Hitch Extender part # PVP20B. The Kuat Pivot Swing Away will allow you to attach a cargo carrier or bike rack to a 2" trailer hitch receiver tube opening and then pivot that accessory out 90 degrees to clear the rear doors on your van. The swing arm comes with a locking anti-rattle threaded hitch pin however, you would also need a locking hitch pin to secure your bike to the swing arm. view full answer...
To replace the calipers on your boat trailer you will need to know the weight capacity for the axle that is on the boat trailer and the brand of the calipers. A very common brand is the Kodiak calipers, typically they will have 225 stamped on the caliper as well like the # KDBC225DAC. This system would work on axles that range from 3,500 lbs to 6,000 lbs.
If you need a different caliper check out the link I attached that will take you to a page that has all of the calipers we offer. You... view full answer...
According to Curt, on some vehicles with air compressors, the plugs will not be accessible through the storage compartment. You would need to pull back the interior trim panels to access the connectors. So the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4 Pole Trailer Connector, # C55355, is the correct harness for your 2001 Pontiac Montana. I have included a link to the installation instructions below.
I do not recommend splicing the brake light wire into the turn signal wire as it would... view full answer...
We have a wide selection of water inlets and the right one for your camper is going to depend on the size of the cutout and type of connection you have. For example, the Valterra Flush Mounted Telescoping Water Inlet for RVs # R920TW is 3-3/8" by 3-3/8" with a 1-3/8" x 1-1/4" barbed inlet.
I have added a link to a video review of that inlet, as well as a link to our selection of water inlets for you to check out. view full answer...
To install a cargo box on your 2004 Pontiac Montana you will first need a roof rack with crossbars installed on your vehicle.
Most likely you have raised rails on your roof and would want the Rhino Rack roof rack that consists of part numbers # RRVA118B-2 and # RRSX100.
If you have a naked roof you would want the Yakima Q Tower Roof Rack which consists of parts # Y00408, # Y00124 and # Y00681. view full answer...
Yes, the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, # 13344, will fit your 2000 Pontiac Montana with a short wheelbase. This hitch would actually be my recommendation for you. I usually prefer Curt trailer hitches because I know they like to be a little liberal with their powder coating and in this case, it has the highest weight capacities of any hitch for your van so it has plenty of built-in safety margin.
All of the wiring harnesses for your vehicle are basically the same thing, but built by different... view full answer...
