  • Which Trailer Hitch Has the Most Ground Clearance for a 2006 Toyota Sienna
  • All of the trailer hitches for your 2006 Toyota Sienna are going to sit in the same area. You'll get slightly better ground clearance from a hitch with an 1-1/4" receiver and when the installed the Curt # C12065 and Draw-Tite # 36513 Class II hitches on the same model year Sienna the difference in height was 1/8" and that small of a difference could honestly be contributed to ground the measurement was taken on or even the amount of pressure in the tires at time. With all of that being...

  • What Is The Difference Between The Curt & etrailer Trailer Hitch Receivers For a 2023 Toyota Sienna?
  • The only difference between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR and our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR is the powder coat finish. We selected Curt to manufacturer our receivers as they are made in the USA and have a great reputation for quality receivers. The Curt will have a gloss black finish while our etrailer receiver has a matte black finish. Personally I prefer the matte black finish as it matches well with most factory trim giving it an OE appearance.

  • Curt Trailer Hitch vs. etrailer Trailer Hitch on 2023 Toyota Highlander
  • There is only one difference between the Curt and etrailer trailer hitches that fit your 2023 Toyota Highlander, which is the finish. The Curt has a glossier finish than the matte black finish of the etrailer hitch, so you can choose which you prefer. The hitches that fit your '23 Highlander are the following part numbers: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e75ZR - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C99FR The matte black finish is nice as it hides the inevitable dings, scuffs and scratches...

  • Comparing Curt and etrailer Hitch for 2023 Toyota Sienna
  • The Curt # C22UR and the etrailer # e56RR are identical with the exception of the finish. The Curt hitch has a glossy finish while the etrailer hitch has a matte black finish. I prefer the matte black since it helps hide inevitable dirt and dings on the hitch. It also tends to blend in better since the color is more of an OEM look. If appearance doesn't matter to you then I would choose whichever one has the lower price.

  • What Is different Between Curt And Tekonsha Wiring Harness For 2016 Toyota Highlander
  • Basically, the different between the Curt wiring harness, part # C56217 and the -One Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # 118449 is they are made by different manufacturers. Both the Curt wiring harness, part # C56217 and the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # 118449 harnesses plug in the same way(behind the tail lights), and both have a powered converter. They both have a 4-way trailer connector. The # C56217 has a maximum amperage output of 3-amps for the stop/turn lights and 6-amps for...

  • Are the Light Duty and Heavy Duty SumoSprings the Same Height for a 2015 Toyota Tundra
  • Yes, I would say that is a fair assessment of SumoSprings # SSR-610-47. the capacity is higher as well at 1,500 pounds. And of course it also fits a 2015 Toyota Tundra. Both it and # SSR-610-40 even share the same instructions.

  • Comparing Hollywood Racks HR100R & Swagman XC S64650EX Hitch Bike Racks
  • The main practical differences between the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider 2 # HR1000Z-R and the Swagman XC-Extended Platform Rack # S64650-EXT are the maximum bike wheelbase that will fit (74-inches for the Sport Rider versus 66-inches) and the bike weight capacity (45-lbs for the Sport Rider 2 versus only 35-lbs for the Swagman). Another feature that favors the Sport Rider 2 is the 5-inches of rise on the rack's shank; this means better ground clearance with less chance of the rack scraping...

  • Curt or Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch for 2012 Toyota Prius C to Use With Bike Rack
  • That's a good question, and between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11484 and the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24971 that fit your 2012 Toyota Prius C, the best option is definitely the Draw-Tite # 24971. The reason the Draw-Tite is the best option is because it has better ground clearance and bumper clearance than the Curt hitch. That means more room for the bike rack away from the vehicle and more space from the ground to the rack to prevent it from potentially hitting the ground...

  • Comparing Curt Trailer Hitch Receivers # C99FR and C45CR For a 2022 Toyota Highlander
  • The main difference that you will see is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C45CR has a visible cross tube where the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C99FR has a hidden cross tube. So when you have these mounted on your 2022 Toyota Highlander Limited you will either see just the receiver slot and chain loops that hangs down, or you will see the receiver and cross tube that attach to the mounting plates on the left and right frame rails. I have included images so that you can see the difference...

  • Comparing Thule Force XT XXL and Yakima CBX Roof Cargo Boxes
  • I would be more than happy to compare the Thule Force XT XXL # TH6359B and Yakima CBX # Y86FR roof cargo boxes for your 2021 Toyota Sequoia! I would like to preface this answer by saying that both are high-end roof cargo boxes that you will be very happy with no matter which way you go. Although I really like both boxes, I recommend going with the Yakima CBX simply because it has some upgraded features that make it easier to use and the design of the box is newer so it matches better with...

  • Will Timbren 5200lb Axle-Less TASR5200S05 Have Same Ride Quality As Timbren Axle-Less 3500 HD?
  • I would be happy to help! The Timbren Axle-Less 5200lb Suspension # TASR5200S05 you were looking at will have a stiffer ride than the same trailer with the 3500lb HD kit, the # TASR35HDS07. Both kits have the same 2" lift and use the same hub and drums, the # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K, with the main difference being the built in progressive rate AEON main spring. If you are loading the trailer close to 3500lbs I don't think the ride quality change will be glaringly obvious, but if the trailer is...

  • What is Difference Between Blue Ox SwayPro System for Underslung Couplers
  • The difference is more than just the shank that comes with it. The part # BXW0553 is for underslung couplers where the coupler attaches to the bottom of the frame so the angle of the hitch ball is different from the # BXW0556.

  • What Is The Difference Between WeatherTech Plate Frame WT63020 And WT61020?
  • The WeatherTech ClearFrame License-Plate Frame - Black # WT63020 includes a Multi-Flex gasket to seal out dirt and moisture and prevent vibration. The WeatherTech Plate Frame - Black # WT61020 does not include this gasket seal. I recommend going with # WT63020 so that there will be less chance of water getting trapped behind your license plate and it will be less noisy.

  • Differences Between Curt T-Connector # C56079 and TowReady T-One # 118482 Wiring Harnesses
  • Both the Curt T-Connector # C56079 and TowReady T-One # 118482 wiring harnesses are no-splicing custom-fit plug in trailer wiring harnesses for the 2010 Toyota Camry. Both will install the same way (and an article on routing the harness power wire and an install video are linked to help you with this process). The main difference between these two harness if their current output capacities. The TowReady harness has a maximum current (amperage) rating of 2.1 amps per stop/turn circuit and...

  • Difference Between PAL8540 and PAL8550 For a 2007 Toyota Tacoma
  • Both of the Pop and Lock Tailgate locks you mentioned part # PAL8540 and # PAL8550 are a fit for your 2007 Toyota Tacoma and both come with the ability to manually lock and power lock the handle. The difference is that the part # PAL8540 comes with a lock cylinder that can be programmed to your truck key so you would only need one key to operate the setup. The part # PAL8550 comes with a separate key.

  • Which Hitch is Less Visible for a 2016 Toyota RAV4 Curt Or Draw Tite
  • Both the Curt # C13149 and the Draw Tite hitch part # 75235 are going to be somewhat visible on your 2016 Toyota Rav4. The safety chain loops of the Draw Tite are a bit more concealed though so I would say it would be the least visible of the two. I attached a picture that shows the two from the same angle for you to see what I mean.

  • Kuat NV 2.0 vs Thule 903202
  • The Kuat and Thule bike racks both have their pros and cons. Although, it really depends on what specifications are important to you when it comes to them. By the looks of your question, it seems that the ease of installation, weight, and a ramp are important for you. With these things in mind, the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 is the stellar choice. It truly is top-of-the-line. It has easy installation and it is 7 pounds lighter than the comparable Kuat NV 2.0 # NV22G. Also,...

  • Difference Between the etrailer And Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receivers For A 2020 Toyota Sienna
  • The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e98853 and Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 76112 are very similar in design and weight capacity. They both have a maximum maximum gross trailer weight of 3,500lbs and maximum tongue weight of 525lbs. Both hitches are bolt-on installations and have a black powder coat finish for superior rust protection. The one key difference is that the # e98853 is not rated...

  • Does 2023 Toyota Sienna etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Sit Below Bumper
  • The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR will be visible under the bumper of your 2023 Toyota Sienna, so you will have a lower clearance at the back of your van. I definitely see how this would be an issue so you'll need to be careful going over speed bumps and you'll need to take steep turns at more of an angle (like when entering or exiting a driveway). If you don't already have a bike rack then I recommend checking out the Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT because it can carry up to...
