  • 7-Way Extension for Use with 36 Inch SuperTruss Extension
  • To extend the 7-Way trailer connector out from the back of your truck to the mount on the SuperTruss extension I recommend # TLW6036 which is 36 inches long. Then you could use the Flexo-Coil kit # RM-146-7 like normal.

  • How to Determine if Car Top Cargo Rooftop Cargo Box # CTC-18S will Fit Vehicle Crossbars
  • Since Car Top Cargo does not fit specific vehicles with their boxes you'll have to check out roof rack to know for sure if the Car Top Cargo Rooftop Cargo Box # CTC-18S will fit. As long as the crossbars are less than 3-3/4" wide x 1-3/16" tall and between 22 and 31 inches apart this box will fit and work well. It's setup to fit 22 inch crossbar spreads and if you need wider than that you'd have to do some drilling.

  • Which Roof Rack Allows Installation Of Thule Hullavator On 2011 Suzuki SX4 With Roof Rails?
  • The Thule Hullavator # TH898 requires that your crossbars extend past the towers/legs by at least 4" on each side. Also, keep in mind this unit is rather heavy (about 40lbs) so when you figure in the weight of your kayak you want to make sure you are not exceeding the weight limit of your roof or roof rack. I recommend checking your owner's manual to verify the weight capacity of your vehicle's roof. Now for a roof rack that fits your 2011 Suzuki SX4 with factory roof rails, I would go...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2011 Suzuki SX4 with a Blue Ox Aventa Tow Bar
  • I would be glad to help you with your towing situation and what would be the best setup you can use. It will require more parts than just the base plates for your vehicle. If you can flat tow your vehicle, you will need to purchase base plates, wiring for lights, and a supplemental braking system as required by law. First, I would recommend to check your owners manual or with the Suzuki dealer to see if your 2011 Suzuki SX4 can be flat towed. I have information that says the 2011 Suzuki...

  • Using the Fat Tire Adapter Kit for the Let's Go Aero Bike Wing on a Reese Adventure SportWing
  • The Fat Tire Adapter Kit for the Let's Go Aero Bike Wing, part # BMP038 may work on your Reese Sportwing. I did go out to the warehouse and measure the holes on the straps, and the small hole that would go inside towards the frame of the carrier is 3/8 inches wide, and the holes that would connect to the outside of the carrier is about 1/2 inches wide.

  • Hitch Recommendation for a 2012 Suzuki SX4 Crossover Wagon
  • I checked with Curt and the Curt Hitch part # C11446 that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 2012 Suzuke SX4 Crossover Wagon. The install will be pretty straightforward and not very difficult at all. Check out the installation instructions I attached to the right for more info. For a ball mount you would want the Curt Class II Drawbar part # C45521, and then for a hitch ball you would want the 2 inch ball part # A-82 and then for a 1-7/8 inch ball you would want the # A-80.

  • Does the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier Come With Locks
  • The Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier part # Y04073 does not come with locks. They will need to be purchased separately using the Yakima Same Key System part # Y07202. The Yakima Same Key System will come with a random key code. There are several different key codes so although it is not impossible for someone to have the same key as you, the odds are very low.

  • Yes, the Malone SeaWing Kayak Carrier and Load Assist w/ Tie-Downs # MPG113MD will work just fine with your flat-bottomed style kayak. The "V" shape of this carrier isn't very aggressive so it will work with pretty much any kayak hull style on the market. Attached is a review video for you to check out!

  • Yakima Bike Rack and Curt Hitch Receiver for 2013 Suzuki SX4 Hatchback
  • I would be happy to help you find a bike rack for your two e-bikes and a receiver hitch for your 2013 Suzuki SX4. The bike rack you referenced, the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes item # Y96FR, is not compatible with class 1 hitch receivers which is all that is available for your vehicle. I recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 2-Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" Hitches item # BA12B. It has a weight capacity of 66 lbs per bike, a maximum tire width of 3.25", maximum wheelbase of 50", and...

  • Why Doesnt Curt Wiring Harness from 2010 Suzuki SX4 Fit a 2013 SX4
  • There was actually a generation change in the Suzuki SX4 from the 2010 to your 2013. That's why the Curt T-Connector # 56002 will fit the older model year. For your 2013 you will need to use a wiring kit that splices in. The Curt equivalent is part # C59236 but if you're looking for something that doesn't require splicing into your OEM wiring then the Tekonsha ZCI # 119250KIT is what you're after. This basically clamps onto your vehicle wiring and detects when it needs to send power (via...

  • Comparing Hitches Available for 2007 Suzuki SX4
  • A Euro-style ballmount could be used in the Curt Class I, part # C11443. The # C45561 offers a 1-7/8 inch ball on a 3-1/8 inch rise. The Euro ball mounts are actually rated for a Class II hitch, but as long as you don't exceed the 200 lb tongue weight capacity of the hitch, you'll be fine. This hitch would sit a few inches below the rear bumper, as shown in the provided photo. Unfortunately, I do not have the exact measurement. If you'll be towing, you'll also need a wiring harness....

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for Class I or Class II Ball Mount on 2008 Suzuki SX4
  • Class I compatible ball mounts, such as the Draw-Tite # 3593, will typically have a shorter hitch pin hole measurement to the end of the shank. This allows it to be used on Class I trailer hitch receivers that have the stopper inside the receiver that can prevent higher-class accessories from fitting. There is not a standard measurement that will indicate whether you have a Class I or Class II ball mount, but if you are able to tell me the manufacturer/brand of your existing unit, I will...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Fitment for 2009 Suzuki SX4 Hatchback
  • The trailer wiring harness that you referenced offered by Curt Manufacturing, part # 56002, is a confirmed fit the 2007 through 2011 model years of the Suzuki SX4 Hatchback. The link provided will let you see and compare both harnesses, which you'll note use the same style of connectors to plug in to your SX4 without the need to cut or splice wires. Massive online retail giants that sell everything under the sun may not have the specialized expertise to be found at companies like etrailer...

  • Will Curt Hitch part # C11443 Work With Surco Hitch Cargo Carrier 52017
  • The Draw Tite hitch part # 24817 that you referenced will work well with the Reese hitch cargo carrier part # 63155. This is very similar to the Surco Carrier that you referenced. The two notable differences is the size is 1 inch shorter at 20 X 47. and it weighs 4 pound more. The hitch is a Class I hitch and the carrier is Class I compatible so there would be no issues. I attached a review video for the carrier being installed and used in a Class I hitch for you to check out as well.

  • Does a Transmission Cooler Require a Professional Install
  • Transmission coolers are universal fit items. As long as you have space in front of your radiator to accommodate this cooler then it will fit. The dimensions of the cooler are 11 inches wide, 7-1/4 inches tall and 7/8 thick. A person with average mechanical ability should be able to install a transmission cooler with little difficulty. It may be necessary to use a jack and jack stands to gain access underneath the car and as always, use proper safety practices when jacking and working...
