  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2023 Toyota RAV4

  • Bike Rack & Hitch For E-Pro Travel Trailer
  • Hi Teri, We can get you a bike rack for your E-Pro travel trailer, but first you'll need a hitch (assuming one is not already on the camper). For that you'll need the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703. This can be welded or bolted onto your trailer and gives you a 2" hitch for a rack. The rack does need to be travel-trailer approved, and for that use the Swagman Nomad Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # S36FR. What I like about the Nomad is it's 8" rise so...

  • Will EcoHitch for 2024 Toyota Sienna Work Well with Kuat NV BIke Rack
  • Hey Gary we don't have any pictures of the EcoHitch part # EH22SR installed on a 2024 Toyota Sienna but it would be the best option if you were worried about ground clearance and appearance as only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper. While your vehicle does have low ground clearance it would work great with the Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G.

  • Where Does The Trailer Wire Harness Connector Sit After Installation On A 2021 Volvo XC90
  • Hi Ryan, The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56285 is designed to stay in the trunk of your XC90 when not in use. When in use you'll just pull it out and close the rear hatch. There's a gasket that lines the rear hatch that will flex to allow for the wiring to pass through and not get smashed when you close the hatch. If you want to run it down to the hitch instead then you'll likely need to run the connector to a tail light corner and then...

  • Will 5th Wheel Hit 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 Tailgate With B&W Companion Slid Rearward
  • Hey Ben! The B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3775 will not make contact with your 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 tailgate when you slide the hitch rearward, so you'll be good to go! I will also add that if your 5th wheel trailer has a tapered nose you can actually use the Stationary B&W Companion # BWRVK3715 you were looking at, even with the 6-1/2' bed. We've received a bit of feedback from our towing community that the distance between the puck system and cab on GM pickups is far enough away that...

  • Is There 7-Way Tester For Volvo With Factory Trailer Wiring
  • Hi Al, There is not a standalone 7-way tester that works with your Volvo with the factory trailer wiring. This is a pretty common problem with these vehicles so what you would need to do is use a standard 7-way tester like # C66NR but also add the 7-Way Trailer Adapter for Towing Trailers with LED Lights # C57003.

  • Troubleshooting the Gen-Y Hitch Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for GM OEM Puck Systems
  • Welcome back! If you're not seeing any visual defects in the gooseneck ball portion of the Gen-Y Gooseneck Hitch item # GY55XR then it just needs to be broken in. It'll loosen up once this happens and you won't have to worry about it getting stuck. It does require lubrication though so I would throw some white lithium grease like item # L11354 into the gooseneck hole. Additionally, if there is excess paint in your Silverado's gooseneck hole you'll want to clean all of that off. The tolerances...

  • Can 2021 Ford F-350 Short Bed Use Curt Crosswing
  • Yes, you can use the Curt CrossWing Lightweight Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # C32DR with your 2021 F-350. However, it is possible you will not be able to make a full 90 degree turn since you have the short bed, so that is something you need to be aware of. If you have a 5th wheel with a tapered nose it is unlikely clearance will be a problem.

  • Recommended 7-Way to 4-Way Adapter
  • I would be happy to Phil! The Pollak 7 Pole to 4 Way Connector Adapter item # PK12716 is exactly what you need. You won't have any issues with the adapter causing shorts with your Volvo's electrical system. This adapter just takes the lighting signals from your 7-way and transfers them to your boats 4-way.

  • Troubleshooting No Brake Lights With European Trailer Connector Adapter on 2002 Volvo V70 XC
  • We haven't run into this in the past with customers who have used the # 118710 so I would start by checking the vehicle side connector. The brake and turn signals are separate on your European style 7-way so you will need to determine which pin is the brake signal and check for power using a tester like the # PTW2993. It may be that there is some corrosion on the connector as well, especially since it is a 2002, so it would be a good idea to check it and clean as necessary. If you don't...

  • Troubleshooting a Curt Spectrum That Does not Go Through Calibration Sequence
  • There could be a couple of reasons why your Curt Spectrum # C51170 is not calibrating, but it's likely due to your wiring. Even though you're using a plug in adapter # C51523, there still can be an issue with your vehicle wiring. I recommend physically checking your grounds, to make sure that it's to a clean secure surface. If your grounds are good, then check the white and black wires on the main module and make sure they're not flipped; If they are flip them and check again. I also...

  • Will A Gen-Y 5th Wheel Pin Box Work On A Ram 2500 Short Bed With Ram Boxes
  • Hi Mike, Unfortunately the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel Pin Box # GY46FR would likely make contact with the Ram Boxes whenever you try to make a turn. With Ram Boxes your options for towing a 5th wheel are pretty much limited to rotating pin boxes, especially with a short bed. With this pin box you'd end up with the pivot point sitting 22" closer to the truck so the pin box could hit the side of the bed and the nose of the trailer could hit the cab of the truck. Is there a specific...

  • Troubleshooting Loss Of Trailer Running Light Function On A 2019 Toyota Highlander XLE
  • Hey Johnathan, Since you've already checked the fuses and found everything was fine that leads me to believe that the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Wiring Harness # HM11141825 has an internal short. I recommend unplugging it from the factory connector and then turn on your running lights. You can then test the factory connector using a circuit tester # PTW2992 to see if the signal is coming through. If it is then we know the # HM11141825 just needs to be replaced. If the signal isn't coming...
