Expert Answers about Chevrolet Tahoe


  • 2 Inch Pintle Ball Mount w/ 5 Inch Drop
  • I have a solution for you but the Buyers Combination Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball item # 337RM62516 you referenced doesn't have any drop. I recommend the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers item # 325-GH-424. This adjustable ball mount has options for both a 2" and 2 5/16" ball. It has 10,000 lbs capacity and a 5" drop and rise.

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for 275/60R20 Tires on a 2021 Chevy Tahoe
  • We do have the Titan Chain Snow Chains # TC2828CAM which use the V-Bar link for deep snow and ice and they fit the 275/60R20 tires on your 2021 Chevy Tahoe. My only concern is that when I looked up your owner's manual online it specifically stated not to use tire chains on your size tires due to low clearance. This means that using standard chains that wrap around the back side of the tire will come into contact with something on the back side like brake lines or suspension parts. Because...

  • No Power to Trailer Brake Controller on a 2008 Chevy Tahoe
  • Since you have a 2008 Chevy Tahoe the likely problem is that the fuse for a brake controller is not present or you need to make some connections under the hood to make everything fully functional. I do not believe that you have blown a fuse. I have included a link to an article that explains the under the hood connections and fuse locations associated with a brake controller on your SUV.

  • Removing Old Hardware from Hitch on 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe
  • After watching the installation video of the Curt # C14029 on a 1998 Chevrolet Tahoe it looks like you should have fairly good access to the bolts and blocks from the outside of the frame. I would try using a telescoping magnet to get the old hardware out. There is really no set way to do this since typically the hitch does not need to be removed and the mounting hardware is designed to hold it securely in place. If you end up needing replacement hardware we do have the # RHK kit which...

  • Is It Possible to Install a LockNLoad to My 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe's Flush Factory Rails?
  • I have an answer for you. I went ahead and reached out to my contact at Yakima, and she confirmed that they do not currently have a fitting/adapters for a direct mounting option of the Yakima LockNLoad to your factory flush rails on your 2021 Chevy Tahoe. There is always the option of a custom installation of the platform, but that process will involve drilling straight into the roof of your vehicle. Another thing that I confirmed is that even without the crossbars installed, there is only...

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for a 2014 Chevy Tahoe with LT285/65 R18 Tire Size
  • The Titan Chains part # TC2533 have been confirmed as a fit for your 2014 Chevy Tahoe and would be a great option for you. These chains offer great traction, and easy install, and are at a price that's great. If at all possible we recommend installing chains on all 4 tires of a vehicle. This will give you the best possible traction for braking, acceleration, and turning. But if you decide you only want to go with one set you would need to install them on the main drive axle for the vehicle....

  • How to Pick Out Dexter EZ Flex Equalizers for Dutchmen Kodiak 201QB
  • The Dexter E-Z flex systems fit trailers based on the equalizer dimensions. You are going to have to measure your current equalizers to find the correct one. The part # K71-653-00 is a replacement for a 7-3/4 inch equalizer and the part # K71-652-00 is a replacement for a 5-5/8 inch equalizer. The picture I attached shows where to measure. You will need to measure the dimensions of your equalizer to see what would work. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Roof Rack To Carry Yakima MegaWarrior Basket On 1999 Chevy Tahoe With Factory Roof Rack
  • I called my contact at Yakima about your husband's 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe. The roof rack that is on the Tahoe is only rated for 74-lbs and that is why there were no options listed for carriers other than snow carriers. I do have a solution that will work for you. I recommend using the Thule SquareBar Roof Rack. This attaches to the raised side rails on the Tahoe roof and will accommodate several accessories, including the MegaWarrior. To order this roof rack you will need part # TH712500,...

  • Weight Distribution System or New Shank with More Drop to Tow Trailer Level
  • We cannot open the packages and swap out the shanks so the best option is to either just replace the shank that you have or choose a system that doesn't come with a shank and shank separately. You don't have to get a whole new weight distribution system if you just need a shank with more drop. You can buy just a shank. Most shanks are interchangeable amongst the different manufacturers. If the head of the weight distribution system you have now mounts to the shank using 3/4 inch diameter...

  • Do I Have to Balance My Trailer Tires?
  • Tire and wheel combos like the Kenda KR25 Radial Trailer Tire with 12" Aluminum HWT Wheel - 4 on 4 - Load Range D item # AM31208HWT ones you were looking at do not come pre-balanced. Trailer tires are not required to be balanced and have to be taken to a special tire store that will balance trailer tires. Since the primary duty of a trailer tire is supporting a vertical load, rather than gripping like an automobile through turns, trailer tires do not have to be dynamically balanced like...

  • Will The Yakima Roof Rack Cargo Basket Interfere With The Sunroof Of A 2007 Chevy Tahoe
  • The Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 62" Long x 39" Wide # Y07070-74 is going to attach to crossbars so as long as you can get it high enough to compensate for the sunroof opening you shouldn't have a problem with it and the extension # Y07074. I recommend measuring the height of the sunroof from the roof of the Tahoe while it's open and measuring the distance from the roof to the top of the crossbars to ensure you'll have enough room. If you don't already have crossbars...

  • Will the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier Fit 2007 Chevy Tahoe with Factory Roof Rack
  • Yes, the Thule Hull-A-Port kayak carrier # TH834 will fit the factory roof rack on your 2007 Chevy Tahoe. the carrier comes with straps and bow/stern tie downs so you will not need anything else to mount the kayak. I do recommend using a tire step, # HE4040, which is going to be much safer than standing in an open vehicle doorway. Be sure to consult the vehicle owners manual and/or Chevy for the roof rack weight capacity prior to loading.

  • Good news, I can help you find the correct replacement hardware for your Westin Brush Guard.

  • Finding Brake Lamp Circuit - 2002 Chevy Tahoe to Install Hopkins 46155 Trailer Taillight Converter
  • Because wire colors can vary during the same vehicle model year, we recommend folks test by function, rather than by wire color. Since your Tahoe has what we call a 'separate' taillight system that uses different bulbs for the brake light and the turn signal, you'll need to use a circuit tester and probe the wires in the harness feeding the taillight assemblies until you find the wire that only shows voltage when the brake pedal is pressed. You'll tap the red wire from the converter into...

  • Does Draw Tite Activator and Brake EVN Use Same Brake Controller Harness
  • The Brake EVN # TK63VR does use exact same harness as the Draw Tite Activator you have now so it would be a really simple plug and play install. The Brake EVN would plug right into the same connector as your Activator.

The custom design matches the contours of your existing mirrors and will prevent vibration and wind noise. I attached an installation...

  • Recommended Thule SUP Pads for 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe with Factory Crossbars
  • The Thule SUP and Surfboard Pads for AeroCrossbars - 20" Long - Qty 2 # TH845000 you were looking at are designed to fit on both aero style bars and most factory crossbars, so these would be my recommendation. These are 20" long and have an anti-slip surface to help keep the board in place. I also recommend using the Thule Multipurpose Locking Straps with Rubber Housings - 13' Long - Qty 2 # TH831, which will allow you to secure your board to the pads and keep them from slipping and safe...
