  • Availability of Pintle Adapter for Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly TVXL25
  • It sounds like your military trailer uses a pintle style coupler such as # C48200. Trailer Valet does not offer an adapter for using this type of trailer with their XL Trailer Dolly # TVXL25. The main reason is that military surplus trailers will tend to have much higher tongue weight (TW) than typical agricultural or recreational trailers. This is simply a result of their very strong heavy-duty construction. The XL Trailer Dolly is rated for up to 1000-lbs of TW. Your trailer could easily...

  • Is there a Tow Dolly Fender for a 205/75/R15 Tire
  • No, the Replacement Fender Assembly for Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly # DM66MV will not fit that tire. The # DM66MV is a replacement part for the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly # DM9713093 which has wheels/tires that are ST205/75R14. The fenders that we have all fit R14 tires not R15. If you would like to get back to me with what brand and model of Tow Dolly you have, I would be happy to help you further.

  • Tow Dolly Ratcheting Strap to Replace Cables That Secure Vehicle
  • We do offer ratcheting tie down kits such as the Bulldog # BDW20230 but these do not bolt-down; they have hooks on each end of the four included no-stretch, high-strength polyester straps. The straps have built-in adjustable loops for wrapping axles. We also offer them individually as part # BDW20229. These are usually used with tie-down anchors like # RR5K.

  • Is There a 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver Available For a 2004 Volkswagen Jetta TDI?
  • For your 2004 Volkswagen Jetta I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24748 since you can only get a 1-1/4" class I receiver on your Jetta. Draw-Tite recommend using their Ball Mount # 3593 with this receiver on your Jetta. A 1-7/8" Ball # 19256 or 2" Ball # 19258 will be needed to connect to your car dolly. The Hopkins Tail Light Converter Kit # HM48925 will give you a 4-way flat trailer connection to control the lights on your tow dolly.

  • Availability of Adapter for a 7-Way RV Trailer Connector to 4-Way Round Connector on a Tow Dolly
  • We have 1 7-Way blade style to 4-Way round adapter. It is # HM47043. The coiled adapter can stretch to 8 feet long and it will glow when connected so you can see it easily in the dark. The 4-Way end would plug into a vehicle side 4-Way since this item is used for flat towing a vehicle. If your tow dolly 4-Way plugs into a a vehicle socket as well you would have to remove the 4-Way on the tow dolly and wire in connector # PK11410 in its place.

  • How to Activate Reverse Lockout on Boat Trailer When Moving it By Hand with a Tow Dolly
  • It sounds like you're just needing to activate the reverse light function on a standard 5-Way connector so your boat trailer actuator will use the lockout for you to move the trailer around by hand with your dolly. I don't know of any handheld 12V power sources but you should be able to use a small battery like what you find with a breakaway kit # 50-85-313 and then wire the power only to the last pin on a 5-Way like part # HM47910 to send power to the lockout function on your actuator. It...

  • Recommended Flat Tow Parts for 2017 Nissan Rogue
  • Base plates are not an option for the 2017 Nissan Rogue. My suggestion is to use the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes, # RM-2050-1 as this vehicle can not be flat towed. The benefit of a tow dolly is that they are typically about the same price as a flat towing setup yet require much less install time and are easily transferred to future vehicles.To use a tow dolly with electric brakes the RV will also need a brake controller. I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake...

  • Availability of Quick-Connect Tow Lights for Use with Tow Dolly
  • For cases where your tow dolly does not include lights the way the Roadmaster # RM-2050-1 does, we can help you with a set of easy-to-install and cost-effective towing lights. The linked page displays all of the removable tail light kits we have for flat towing. Most are magnetic mount like the # TL21RK. Both of these have a 4-pole flat trailer connector but we also have a kit that uses a 6-pin plug, # SPL30B-6.

  • Does The Trailer Valet RVR12 Remote-Controlled Trailer Dolly Allow For Swapping Out Battery Packs?
  • The Trailer Valet RVR12 Remote-Controlled Trailer Dolly # TV59FR battery is not removable from the rover itself. Only the batteries from the remote can be removed and replaced. This is their heaviest duty unit which would work best in a commercial environment. It would be best to have multiple units since the average battery life is 30 minutes with a charge time of 2 hours.

  • Availability of Universal Tow Bar to Tow a Variety of Vehicles
  • There are tow bars that fit multiple vehicles. The problem is that the vehicles will require base plates/mounting brackets and these are vehicle specific.

This adjustable tow dolly features self-steering wheels and electric brakes for easy, secure transport. Ideal for cars with front-wheel drive automatic transmissions. Not all vehicles...

  • Dirt Bike Carrier With Car Tow Dolly on Class C Motorhome
  • Because the front of vehicle will be slightly raised while situated on the tow dolly, you would not want to a hitch at the rear of the towed vehicle, this downward angle would probably cause drag issues. One option and the most straight forward, would be to go with an adapter such as # D210. This has a lower hitch for the tow dolly and then a higher opening for accessories. You will need to verify weight ratings and fitment of dirt bike and current components such as tow dolly against...
