  • What are the Dimensions of # 12-2-1 Jacketed Brake Wire
  • I went to our warehouse and pulled some of this Jacketed 2 Wire, part # 12-2-1, to measure for you with a pair of digital calipers. The width of the 2 wires with the jacket measures .364 inches. It measures .209 inches thick. Each individual wire when removed from the jacket measure .122 inches thick. I have also attached links to some of the connectors that can be used with this wire. For wiring brakes on a trailer, I would not recommend using 12GA wire. Instead I would recommend 10GA...

  • What is the Internal Clearance Requirement for the Titan Snow Chains # TC2028 for My 2013 Audi Q7?
  • I have a great solution for snow tire chains on your 2013 Audi Q7. Unfortunately, the Titan Chain Cable Snow Tire Chains - Ladder Pattern # TC2028 needs at least 15mm of internal clearance between the inside of the tire and the vehicle. With that measurement, these will not work with your 13.5mm clearance limitation. With that being said, we do have a couple options that only require 12mm of clearance that fit standard tires for your 2013 Audi Q7. For these options, I recommend the following...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2022 Audi Q7
  • I would be happy to! To add a hitch to your 2022 Audi Q7, I recommend the etrailer item # e88KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Audi with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 7,000 lbs towing capacity and a 700 lbs maximum tongue weight. I really like the etrailer Hitch item # e88KR because the entire crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper. This leaves only the 2" receiver exposed which not only looks better but helps with ground clearance. If...

  • Towing Capacity Of Aftermarket Hitches Vs. OEM Towing Packages For A 2019 Audi Q7
  • The capacity of a towing system is limited by it's lowest rated component. There are hitches in our lineup rated for more than the 6,000 lbs referenced, such as the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e88KR so as long as the 2019 Audi Q7 is capable of towing up to the hitch maximum of 7,000 lbs of Gross Trailer Weight on the etrailer hitch and the other components like the ball mount, ball, etc. are rated for the job, towing capacity shouldn't be reduced.

  • Distance Between Thule Roof Rack Crossbars And Roof On 2014 Audi Q7
  • The distance between the crossbars on your 2014 Audi Q7 may vary depending on the type roof rack you install and the height of the side rails on your vehicle. I spoke with my contact at Thule and they told me that the height of the # TH460R that is included in the system you referenced is 1-1/2 to 2 inches. This would not include the height of the crossbars that fit the feet. We have another roof rack option for you. It is the Thule WingBar Roof Rack. The height of this foot pack is about...

  • What Is The Length Of Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars?
  • On aero crossbars, like the Thule Wingbar, there is typically a T-slot channel which does not extend to the very end of the bar since there is usually an endcap, so the usable length would be slightly less than the entire crossbar. That being said, if they are advertised as 50" crossbars, then the entire length will be 50". The Thule Square Bars 50" Long # TH712300 that you referenced measure 50" end to end. Since you mentioned the Thule WingBar, here is the complete kit compatible with...

  • How to Add a 7-Way Connector and Brake Controller to a 2015 Audi Q7
  • It sounds like your 2015 Audi Q7 does not have the factory tow package. To add a 7-way to your Audi you will need two separate wiring harnesses. The first one is the Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit item # 119250KIT. This wiring harness does not require any cutting or splicing. It will provide you with a 4-flat connector to control the lighting functions on your trailer. I have linked an installation video below....

  • Will Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack Fit with Open Sunroof on 2018 Audi Q7
  • We haven't had the opportunity to install the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack on a 2018 Audi Q7 so I wouldn't know off-hand it you can open the sunroof but I did go out to the warehouse and take some measurements for you. The crossbars themselves, part # TH7603B-TH7604B for Black or part # TH7603-TH7604 for Silver, have about 1-1/2" of clearance under the feet and 2-1/4" of clearance under the center of the bar. The Fit Kit # THKIT3145 might add a little bit of height as well but I'm not...
