That is the only way you'd be able to install the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 on your 2023 Ford Transit T350 since there is no custom fit wiring harness.
To install this, you'll first need to find the cold side of the stop light switch which will only display voltage when the brake pedal is pressed. Once you've found this, you'll connect the red wire from the pigtail harness to it.
You'll then have to connect the black wire to the positive side on your battery,... view full answer...
The ratcheting hooks on the Swagman Current # S64678 can slide up and down the post of the rack to accommodate most alternative bike frames styles. For a guaranteed mounting point on your step-thru bike, you can purchase the Swagman Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Electric, Step Through, and Cruiser Bikes # S57FR. The adapter bar creates a straight mounting point so that the Current can secure the bike by the frame. The quick-release hooks clamp around your bike's seat post and handlebar's stem... view full answer...
Yes, the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger # 331-BCDC1240D will actually automatically draw power from panels before tapping into vehicle battery so you won't have to have the engine running to charge your trailer battery. The battery isolator function prevents the charger from pulling power from the start battery when the vehicle is off so you won't have to worry about it draining your vehicle's battery. view full answer...
The only functions of the 7-way that need to be active to operate the Curt # C51180 Echo Wireless Brake Controller are the right turn/brake lamp, left turn/brake lamp, running lamp circuit, ground and a 12-V feed from the vehicle battery. You won't need the input from the brake controller.
To install the Echo on the Ford Transit T350 (assuming it doesn't already have a functional 7-way trailer connector), you'll want to use part # C56327 and part # ETBC7L.
You won't need the brake controller... view full answer...
That is correct the Hollywood Racks Destination E Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY66ZR is only rated for a Class B motorhome.
Reason being is that the bike rack is not designed to withstand the additional movement and contorting at the rear of a class C or A motorhome.
Instead, I recommend taking a look at the:
-Swagman Current Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # S64678.
Similarly to the Hollywood Racks Destination # HLY66ZR, this bike rack can also accommodate 2 e-bikes weighing 60-lbs... view full answer...
How you'll proceed will depend on whether it's a single rear wheel or a dual rear wheel van.
If it's the DRW, use the Tekonsha # 22116 which provides the connector to install your brake controller.
If it's the SRW, the install will be a bit more involved. You'll need the # 20127 pigtail (if you don't already have it), the controller, our # ETBC7 brake controller install kit and the # C56327 wiring harness. The # ETBC7 includes everything needed to install the controller, including all... view full answer...
The 40 amp Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC Battery Charger, # 331-BCDC1240D is the perfect addition to camper van build. It is ideal for battery banks rated about 200 amp-hours or higher. Becuase There really isn't a single correct or absolute answer as to where this should be mounted. There are however some objectives for selecting a mounting location.
The best performance will be realized when the BCDC # 331-BCDC1240D is installed as close as possible to the battery bank or at least within... view full answer...
There isn't a specific size C-clamp listed when installing SuperSprings # SSA43 but something that has about at least a 4 inch gap between the upper and lower ends of the clamp, when fully opened, would be sufficient. Basically it is used to bend the spring a little at the rear to be able to finish the installation. view full answer...
To install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C14012 you'll need to use the fishwire technique to drop the bolts through the frame and then raise the hitch into place and secure it with the nuts.
I've attached the installation instructions as well as an installation video for you to check as well. view full answer...
The Rhino Rack Four Crossbar Kit with parts # RRVA180S-4, # RRRLTPFC-4, # RRVA-FK1-4 does not involve drilling to install into the fixed mounting points on your 2021 Ford Transit T350. They do come with bolts, but those go into your mounting points on your roof. For vehicles without those mounting points, we also have tracks that can be drilled into the roof and then use the same roof rack kit afterwards. You might have seen instruction for those tracks.
If you want to add a fifth crossbar... view full answer...

When installing the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer part # SSA43 on your 2017 Ford Transit T350, if you have two leaves in your leaf spring stack then you can use the middle bolt hole on the shackles but if you have three leaves in your leaf spring stack then you will need to use the lowermost bolt hole. You are correct in that the the upper two bolt holes will provide more support but it may be too stiff so some experimentation will be needed. The front and rear shackles will... view full answer...
I believe you are referring to the adjustable shank that comes included with the Reese Weight Distribution System # RE34FR. If this is the case (just let me know if it isn't) it can indeed be flipped so that it's used in either the drop OR rise position. I have attached a cutout from the install manual below that shows the dimensions when used in either orientation. view full answer...
It sounds like you just need to adjust the output and sensitivity setting on the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 as none of what you described indicates a problem is present. The best way to adjust the output and sensitivity setting will be listed in the manual but I have attached the adjustment portion for you below as well. I would not have any exact numbers for you to use which is why it is important to follow the procedure outlined below. view full answer...
I reached out to my contact at SuperSprings about the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-121-54 for a 2016 Ford Transit T350 chassis and they stated that the gap between the spring and contact point can vary by application as this spring can be used on both standard models and cutaways. The gap should be less when used on a motorhome but there are too many factors to say exactly what that will be. They stated a lot of these small Sprinter van chassis don't pre-load the spring... view full answer...
Whenever you use a hitch adapter like the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # 80303 you affectively cut your trailer hitches capacity by half.
So, with your class I hitch already has a fairly low capacity, using a hitch adapter will reduce your capacity to almost nothing.
Instead, I recommend using a bike rack that is compatible with a class I hitch, like the:

The Valterra RV Water Tank # R8042 being solvent weldable simply means that you can glue the fittings onto to the tank using the Valterra ABS Solvent Cement # A05-0303. To install a valve or hose on this tank you would simply need to use the existing opening or pop out a different one to fit your application and use the Solvent to glue it into place in the opening. view full answer...
In order to install the Curt TriFlex Trailer Brake Controller part # C24VV on a 2016 Ford Transit T350 with factory trailer connector you'll need the Universal Wiring Adapter for Curt Trailer Brake Controllers part # C51515 and the Wiring Kit for 2, 4, 6, and 8 Brake Electric Trailer Brake Controllers part # 5506. You'll have to run a power wire from the controller to the battery and then the output wire from the controller to the connector. There is no plug-in adapter for this vehicle. view full answer...
I've spoken with my representative in the tech services department at Curt Manufacturing. He assures me that the M12 - 1.75 x 30 bolts included with the installation hardware are indeed self-tapping. It's recommended that the blanks be cleaned using the wire brush before and after using the bolt to tap the threads, which is why it's shown in the install photos. view full answer...
