Expert Answers about Toyota Sienna


  • Comparing the Timbren and Air Lift Suspension Enhancement Kits for a 2008 Toyota Sienna
  • Both the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement # TTORSEN04 and the Air Lift 1000 Helper Springs # AL60732 work in conjunction with the rear coil springs of your 2008 Toyota Sienna van. The Timbren system uses 2 Aeon hollow rubber springs that fit inside the Sienna's coil spring. The rubber spring provides additional support by increasing resistance between the upper rubber spring and the lower mount that is attached to rear axle. So, when weight is added to the rear of the van, the Timbren...

  • Which Trailer Wiring Harness Will Work With 2017 Toyota Sienna LE
  • The difference between part # 118648 and part # 118498 is that part # 118498 is designed for the SE model and part # 118648 is designed to work with Siennas that are not the SE model. Since you came from the non-SE model the trailer wiring harness that will work for you is part # 118648. This trailer harness is a simple installation. You just plug it into the connection points behind the driver and passenger side tail lights and then run the hot lead wire to the positive battery post...

  • Ground Clearance Difference for Pro Series # 63153 and Curt # C18130 Cargo Carriers on 2008 Sienna
  • Both the Pro Series # 63153 and Curt # C18130 cargo carriers have an angled shank to provide better ground clearance than straight-shank types. The Pro Series has 2-1/2-inches of rise in the shank while the Curt has 3 inches of rise. Also the Curt carrier has the ability to adjust the placement of the carrier basket on the shank and includes the required hitch pin and clip, while the Pro Series does not. You can use part # PC3 or a locking anti-rattle hitch pin such as # 63232. The Pro...

  • Does 2023 Toyota Sienna etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Sit Below Bumper
  • The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR will be visible under the bumper of your 2023 Toyota Sienna, so you will have a lower clearance at the back of your van. I definitely see how this would be an issue so you'll need to be careful going over speed bumps and you'll need to take steep turns at more of an angle (like when entering or exiting a driveway). If you don't already have a bike rack then I recommend checking out the Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT because it can carry up to...

  • Differences Between Class II and III Hitches for 2012 Toyota Sienna
  • The primary differences between the 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch receiver are the size and the capacity. The Class III hitches for your Sienna have a 3500 lb towing/ 350 lb tongue weight capacity. The Class II hitches have the same towing capacity, but a lower tongue weight capacity, at 300 lbs. We usually recommend going with the Class III if the choice is available. The 2 inch receiver opening used by the Class III hitch is more common, and therefore there is a better selection of hitch mounted...

  • Differences Between the Curt Wiring Harness and Tow Ready Harness for the 2011 Toyota Sienna
  • Honestly, the only difference between the Curt Wiring Harness # C56106 that you referenced and the Tow Ready Wiring Harness # 118498 in terms of application and function is the brand. Both will do the exact same thing and will work well on your 2011 Toyota Sienna. We have sold more of the Tow Ready # 118498 harnesses (most likely because they were cheaper at one point) and have not had an issue with them. I do know that Curt uses a different more modern style of circuit boards that create...

  • Comparing etrailer, Curt and EcoHitch Hitch Receivers For Ground Clearance On a 2014 Toyota Sienna
  • The only difference in the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98853 and Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13343 is going to be the powder coat being matte black on the etrailer and gloss black on the Curt. As we have partnered with Curt to build our receivers in the matte black finish they are identical in dimensions. I do prefer the matte black powder coat on the etrailer receiver as it gives a more OEM appearance. As these both mount in the same position as the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer...

  • Differences Between Available Class III Hitches for 2011 Toyota Sienna
  • The Hidden Hitch and Draw-Tite model hitches you referenced would be identical, since Hidden Hitch and Draw-Tite are sister companies. Both hitches are identical in looks, share the same capacity and would install in the same manner. The Curt # C13105 has a straight cross tube that bends slightly at each end, while the Hidden Hitch and Draw-Tite Hitches have a cross tube that angles rearward from the receiver opening, with no bend. I have provided side by side photos showing the # 87698...

  • Comparing Curt and etrailer Hitches for a 2024 Toyota Sienna
  • Both the Curt # C22UR and the etrailer # e56RR trailer hitches are excellent options for your 2024 Toyota Sienna, but I actually like the etrailer option a little more and not just because it has our branding. The etrailer hitch has a matte black finish which serves a dual purpose; it looks better than the classic glossy black we see on the Curt and it does a much better job at hiding any scratches from road debris. So we get better looks and durability out of that coating. Attached is...

  • Comparing etrailer e56RR and Curt C22UR Trailer Hitch Receivers For a 2021 Toyota Sienna
  • The only difference between the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR and Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR is going to be the powder coating used. The etrailer receiver will have a matte black powder coat while the Curt will have a gloss black powder coat. Since etrailer's receivers are made by Curt the mounting points and material used is all the same and they are both made here in the USA. Personally I prefer our etrailer receiver as I find the matte black powder coating is more...

  • Comparing Air Lift and Firestone Air Bags for a 2019 Toyota Sienna AWD
  • I checked with Firestone, the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4155 are not listed as a fit for AWD models. That said, I also checked with Air Lift and the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs part # AL60732 are a fit for all models. Therefore, you really don't have an option for which to go with but I would choose Air Lift anyway even if you did as they provide a tee fitting so you can fill both air bags with one port and they use a black air line which is easier...

  • Comparing the Ground Clearance Between Draw-Tite and etrailer Hitch for a 2015 Toyota Sienna
  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76112 and etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98853 are both great options for a 2015 Toyota Sienna. The Draw-Tite hitch measures around 12" from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver tube opening. The etrailer hitch measures around 12" from the ground to the top inside edge of the receiver tube opening. Therefore, they will be about the same. That said, these measurements can vary by vehicle as things such as tire size,...

  • Draw-Tite or Curt Trailer Hitch For 2021 Toyota Sienna
  • Let's start with the two trailer hitches you were referring to that fit your 2021 Toyota Sienna, which are the following: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR - Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT55MR They are very similar 2 inch hitches that are both easy bolt-on installations, but I recommend the Draw-Tite # DT55MR, for a couple of reasons. One is that it has higher overall capacities, which not only speaks to the strength of the hitch, but the higher tongue weight capacity...
