  • Will the Timbren Suspension Enhancement System Help Level my 2006 Buick Rainier When Towing
  • The Timbren Suspension Enhancement Systems can be a big help in situations like this where the factory suspension works fine, but it needs some help.

  • Is there a Brake Controller Wiring Harness for Elecrical Connection on a 2006 Buick Ranier
  • Yes, your 2006 Buick Rainier will have a bundle of wires under the dash to the left of the steering column that will need to be spliced to the wiring included with the Tekonsha P-3 Trailer Brake Controller, item # 90195. This installation is the same as the one you saw in the video for the 2004 Trailblazer, and will work for the 2004 - 2006 Rainier with factory tow package. There is not a connector on your vehicle, so the wires must be spliced and the P-3 includes butt connectors for this...
