  • What Mounting Brackets Do I Need for an Aries Bull Bar on My 2013 Honda Ridgeline?
  • If you have an Aries bull bar like # AAB35-6001 that is designed to fit a 2013 Honda Ridgeline, I confirmed with Aries that the replacement hardware you need is discontinued.

  • Recommended Crossbars for a 2023 Honda Ridgeline
  • If you're adding crossbars to your camper shell, the lowest profile option would be the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount # Y02-480B-ST. These bars are going to be right around 4" tall, so just a bit out of your scope but if you're that strapped for space you're likely not going to be able to find anything that works. Alternatively, you could add the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack # JB0190 which is going to be the lowest profile crossbars we have....

  • Parts Needed to Install a Prodigy P2 Brake Controller on a 2008 Honda Ridgeline
  • 2008 Honda Ridgeline models that did not come with a factory 7-Way may not have a brake controller plug under the dash. You will need to check for the connector, and if it is there, you will need to ensure that all connections for the 7-Way are made correctly in the front and rear of the vehicle, and that any fuses or circuit breakers that are needed for the 7-Way and brake controller circuits are installed by Honda. It is common to see 7-Way plugs that only get partially installed to...

  • Best Way to Carry a Kayak on a 2018 Honda Ridgeline Using Crossbars and Bed Extender
  • I recommend the Yakima LongArm, part # Y01149-1150, for the hitch extender. This is a pretty new part offered from Yakima and they were here a few months ago showing it off to us. This thing is solid and it's versatile since it can be set at roof or bed height. I've linked a video from when our installers tested it out for you. Since you don't want a permanent roof rack take a look at the SeaSucker Monkey Bars # 298-SX6000B. The crossbars connect to your Ridgeline's roof using vacuum...

  • Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2007 Honda Ridgeline with an Existing 4-Way Connector
  • To add a 7-way trailer connector to your 2007 Honda Ridgeline our # ETBC7 kit will do exactly what you want. It's intended for electric brake controllers but not having a controller connected won't hurt anything. And if you install the # ETBC7 you'll already have everything you need to add a controller later. Another option is to install the adapter, part # 37185, that is included with the # ETBC7 kit and not connect the other three wires. This way you'll have a 7-way connector but...

  • Parts Needed To Install a Redarc Tow Pro Trailer Brake Controller On a 2023 Honda Ridgeline
  • Yes, you will be able to install either the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED24FR or Elite # RED44FR trailer brake controller on your 2023 Honda Ridgeline. If your Ridgeline came with the factory tow package you will only need the Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # RED59FR to connect to the factory wiring. Otherwise you will need a Installation Kit # ETBC7 to install a 7-way with the wiring for the brake controller. A Universal Harness # RED69FR is needed for the Liberty as it does not include one.

  • Installing an Electric Trailer Brake Controller in a 2006 Honda Ridgeline
  • From what we've learned the 2006 Honda Ridgeline either came with a 7-way trailer connector from the factory or it didn't have any factory wiring at all. You might check the owner's manual or with Honda to verify what your specific Ridgeline was originially equipped with. If you find you do already have the wiring and just need a 7-way connector at the rear then you can use # 37185. Then if you have the connector under your dash, for a brake controller I suggest the Tekonsha Prodigy P2...

  • What Cables do I Need for My Waste Water RV Valve?
  • The type of cable you need for your gray water waste valve depends on which type of valve you have installed on your RV. If you have a Valterra valve, the Valterra Cable with Valve Handle - 72" # TC72PB works great. This valve is also sold without the handle as part # T1001PBC. In order to install the valve, you do need the Valterra ABS Solvent Cement - 1/4 Pint # A05-0303. You can indeed tell by looking at the handle. The LaSalle Bristol cable has angled edges.

  • Trailer Brake Controller installation in 2010 Honda Ridgeline Without Factory 7-Way
  • Your 2010 Honda Ridgeline will have an under-dash connection port for a trailer brake controller like the Prodigy P3 # 90195 only if it came from the factory with the 7-way trailer connector. Adding this connector using kit # 118253 does not provide the brake controller port. This part is intended as a factory replacement but not a retro-fit. For any vehicle that does not have the factory-installed 7-way and the under-dash port a brake controller installation will be hardwired. This process...

Its made from steel and has a 3-5/8 inch span, with a 5/8 inch pin diameter. The Kuat Lock # HL2 will not work with your Kuat Beta, because it has a 1/2 inch pin diamter.

  • Should You Use A Friction Style Sway Control System On A Lance 1575 Travel Trailer?
  • Adding the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution w Sway Control # RE94FR is a great idea! With your trailer being pretty heavy compared to your vehicle, you are likely going to experience some sway while driving. This is why it'd be smart to invest in a sway control system, as this will provide a more enjoyable experience and this is what they're made to fight against. Additionally, if you do not already, you're going to need a trailer hitch # 13385, a ball mount # D320, and a 7-way...

  • Changing to 4-Way and 7-Way Connector on a 2017 Honda Ridgeline
  • Since your 2017 Honda Ridgeline has the factory 7-way connector on it you should have a wiring harness that has the standard to package plug. It's the harness that plugs into the back of the 7-way connector and looks like the picture I attached. If this is how your 7-way connects then you can simply unplug the factory connector and replace it with part # HM40950 that has both a 4-way and a 7-way connector in one. If your factory 7-way plugs in in some other fashion let me know. Send...
