  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2008 Saturn Outlook Behind an RV
  • There have been different Falcon tow bars over the years. If you have a Falcon 5250 (discontinued) it is rated for 5,000 pounds.

  • How Many Revolutions will a 20.5x8x10 or 205/65-10 Trailer Tire Turn in One Mile
  • The 20.5 x 8 x 10 trailer tire is an older tire size that is closely related to the newer tire like part # AM3H490. The 205/65-10 tire size is considered a direct replacement for the 20.5 x 8 x 10 tire. To calculate the revolutions that any tire will make in a given distance you need to do some calculations. First, calculate the number of inches in the distance that the tire will be required to roll. In this case 63,360 inches makes 1 mile. Next, calculate the circumference by multiplying...

  • Rola TX-103 Bike Carrier Compatibility with a 2007 Saturn Outlook
  • As long as you have a trailer hitch on your 2007 Saturn Outlook with a 1-1/4 inch or 2 inch receiver you can use the Rola TX-103 3 Bike Carrier 59403. This bike rack measures 10 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the upright bar which should leave plenty of room between the rack and your vehicle.

There is a chain paradox in which some vehicle owners manuals state not to use chains but in some areas of the country they are required by law. In that situation what you want to do is contact a GM dealer (since Saturn no longer exists) for their recommendation. The issue with most vehicles on which chains should not be used is the small amount of clearance around the back side...

So basically it comes down to what load your vehicle is capable of handling. You could check the tail light fuse of your vehicle to see what the amperage on the fuse is and subtract the amperage draw of your tail lights to see what you have left. If you have a basic trailer with the standard amount of clearance and tail lights...
