Expert Answers about Chevrolet Silverado 1500
- No-Drill Ladder Rack Recommendation for a 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 6-1/2 Foot Bed
- Yes, we have a variety of ladder racks for your 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 that won't require drilling into your 6-1/2' bed.
I recommend checking out the Rapid Switch Systems Pro HD Truck Bed Ladder Rack # RS88FR. This has a weight capacity of 800 lbs and is adjustable to 4 different heights you can use depending on the load you're carrying. One of the really neat things about this rack is you can also remove the uprights and crossbars pretty easily which is nice if the need ever arises.

- Unfortunately, you are not able to combine different circuits on a single generator so the device you are searching for does not exist. If you were combining multiple generators like our Champion # CH99FR they are able to be combined using the included Parallel Kit # CH84FR to get up to a 50 amp circuit. I do not see that Predator offers a parallel kit for your 9500 watt generator.

- The Master Lock Adjustable Trailer Coupler Lock - Stainless Steel # 2847DAT is not offered in a keyed alike option, so if you order 3 you will have 3 separate keys.
If you want locks that are keyed alike, I recommend the etrailer.com Stainless Steel Trailer Coupler Lock - 7/8" Span # e98890 which you can select keyed alike from the drop down box after selecting your quantity desired.
I've attached the link to all your keyed alike options.

- Because the Truxedo Lo Pro QT sits to the inside edge of the bed sides, it is possible to use a ladder rack that mounts to the top of the bed side rail, via the stake pockets. Just about all the ladder racks we offer would mount to the inside edge of the bed side, which won't work if you want to use a Tonneau cover.
The TracRac SR, part # TH43002XT-782EX attaches to the top of the bed side and would be perfectly compatible with your Truxedo LoPro QT Tonneau cover. This ladder rack is...

- For occasional towing or even if you just sometimes put a load in the bed of your 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 the perfect option is the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SS45FR.
These are the best because they compress as needed so you get a smoother more comfortable towing or hauling experience compared to some springs that are a rigid rubber and cause what can be an uncomfortable ride when the springs engage.

- I have a solution for you, but the CIPA Custom Towing Mirror - Slip On - Driver Side # CM11551 is not a fit for your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. I recommend looking into the CIPA Custom Towing Mirrors - Slip On - Driver Side and Passenger Side # CIP38MR which is confirmed to fit your vehicle. This is a really nice setup that simply attaches to your factory mirrors with a tool-free installation. I attached a detailed demonstration video to further explain how these slip-on tow mirrors...

view full answer... - Availability of Cleaning Products for Travel Trailers
- I recommend Voom all purpose RV cleaner # RM-9910. This cleaning product can tackle any mess. It can be used on rubber, painted surfaces, aluminum, screens, carpets and upholstery. It can even put the shine back on chrome-plated wheels. Voom is a petroleum-free, biodegradable, concentrated formula safe enough to use full strength and strong enough to work when diluted. For a 32 oz bottle you will want # RM-9911.

- Firestone does offer spacers to allow installation of air bags in lifted trucks. The spacers are not needed if the vehicle has a body lift, but if it has a suspension lift the spacers will be needed for the air springs to be in the correct positions.
The Firestone rear axle air spring kit # F2430 is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Silverado 1500 (both the 2WD and the 4WD versions) and you will want to use Spacer kit # F2375.
To get the most out of your air spring setup I suggest adding...

view full answer... - Replacing 6-Way on Truck with 7-Way
- Since wire color codes are NOT universal, we always recommend wiring by function, rather than wire color.
If you look at the Trailer Wiring FAQ article I have linked you to, you can see some diagrams showing the proper way to wire a vehicle and trailer side 7-way trailer connector.
If you can open up the existing 6-way connector on your trailer, take the housing apart and look at the terminals the wires attach to. In many cases, they will be labeled like what is shown in the FAQ article....

view full answer... - How to Determine if Trailer 7-Way is Upside Down for Determining Pin Out
- I attached a picture of a 7-way wiring diagram for you to check out to help show you where all of the pins of the connector are. If your 7-way is upside then yes the diagram would need to rotate 180 degrees. You can use the notch of the 7-way to determine if this the case. The square notch is normally on top of the connector so if yours is on the bottom then it is inverted.
