  • Towing Capacity of a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude 3.2 Liter with Aftermarket Hitch Installed
  • When you see "with trailer tow package" in the owner's manual for the 2015 Jeep Cherokee it is referring to the factory tow package for that vehicle. Factory tow packages vary from manufacturer to manufacturer but it does mean more than just have a hitch and wiring installed. If your Cherokee did not come with the factory trailer tow package then it has a capacity of 2,000 pounds gross trailer weight. If it does have the factory tow package then it is rated for 4,500 pounds gross trailer...

  • Clearance Between Skis and Roof with Thule Snowpack Ski Carrier
  • There are different carriers within the Thule Snowpack series (# TH732508, # TH7326, # TH7325, # TH7324 etc.) so I'll assume you mean the Thule SnowPack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # TH7326B. This is the carrier that can hold up to six pairs of skis or four snowboards. When we measured it with snowboards mounted, we found it was 3-3/8" from the snowboard to the top of the crossbars. This measurement is with the clamp style. If you use the T-track mounting system, it comes with spacer that...

  • Determining Rise for Towing Trailer Level
  • For your Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13172 on a 2014 Jeep Cherokee, you will have a height from the ground to the inside top of the receiver is 16 inches. I've attached a video that shows this. Then you will simply need to measure from the ground to the underside of your trailer coupler on level ground. Then you will do some simple math. If your hitch height is greater, use a ball mount with a drop--Hitch Height (A) - Coupler Height (B) = Drop (C). However, if your coupler height...

  • Towing Capacity of 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
  • The towing capacity of your 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited is 3,500 lbs when you have a trailer hitch like the Curt # C13172 installed. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118605 which installs without any splicing and has the most reliable converter box of all of the kits we offer. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise...

  • Will Weight Distribution Hitch Increase Towing Capacity of 2016 Jeep Cherokee Latitude
  • If your travel trailer has a dry weight of about 4100-lbs, by the time you fill your water tanks and load all of your supplies and equipment you could easily reach or exceed the 4500-lb rated towing capacity for the 2016 Jeep Cherokee Latitude that has a 3.2L V6 and towing package. Ideally your choice of trailer would not be so close to the vehicle's maximum capacity. Adding a weight distribution hitch like the Equal-i-zer # EQ37100ET does not increase the vehicle's towing capacity. This...

  • Dimensions of Spacer Block Washers for Installing Hitch on 1997 Jeep Cherokee
  • The dimensions are listed in the installation instructions that I've linked for you. I've also copied the diagram for you. The bolt plates aren't something you'll be able to find at your local hardware store, and the hitch manufactures don't sell them as an individual part. You'd need to use the entire hardware kit, which is actually a good thing, because you'll get all new hardware that's the correct size and grade (hitch installation bolts are only meant to be torqued one time.) For...

  • 2016 Jeep Cherokee Latitude Towing Capacity
  • The factory towing package is more than just a hitch receiver and wiring harness. Factory tow packages may include upgraded transmissions, suspension systems, brakes, engines, and cooling systems. The combination of that equipment is what determines your vehicles overall towing capacity. Your 2016 Jeep Cherokee Latitude is not capable of towing anything over 2000 lbs without the factory towing package and this isn't something that can be added afterwards. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver...

  • The distance between the mounting holes is indeed 36 inches for the Draw-Tite hitch that fits your 1999 Jeep Cherokee: - Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75054 I did verify for you with the manufacturer as well that the # 75054 will fit your '99 Cherokee.

  • Selecting Weight Distribution/Sway Control for 2018 Jayco Hummingbird 16FD Travel Trailer
  • The gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the 2018 Jayco Hummingbird 16FD travel trailer is 3500-lbs; this is the most it can weigh when fully loaded. Since properly loaded trailers have tongue weight (TW) in the range of 12- to 14-percent of the GVWR, your trailer will likely have TW of 425 to 500-lbs when loaded. Actual measured TW is what you'll need to determine the correct weight distribution/sway control hitch to use. You can easily check your loaded trailer TW using the scale #...

  • Can the Dutton-Lainson Removable Wheel with Pin be Used for Trailer with 450 lb Tongue Weight
  • Since the Removable Wheel with Pin # DL22539 has a 1,250 lb weight capacity it will be able to handle the 450 lbs of tongue weight you now have. Please note that this fits jacks that have a 2" inner tube. A 3,500 lb trailer might be a bit difficult to move by hand though. If you find this to be the case you may be interested in the Trailer Valet 5X Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover # STC-V211. This installs by clamping around the frame of your trailer (up to 2-3/4" wide x 6" tall) and then...

  • What Does Raised Floor Mean When Picking Out Floor Mats for 2015 Jeep Cherokee
  • All the way to the left of the driver side floor board of your 2015 Jeep Cherokee there will be what is called a "dead pedal." This is basically just an area to rest your left foot while you are driving. If right in front of this area there is a raised section then you have a raised floor and the part # WT445661 that you referenced would fit. If you do not have the raised floor you would need the # WT448331 instead.

  • Mounting Bracket Dimensions for Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # AS24
  • I went out to our warehouse to take a few measurements on the mounting bracket for the Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # AS24. The base bracket profile measures 24 inches long, 1 inch tall, and 1 inch deep. The shorter tabs that will be closer against the trailer/RV extend the bracket by just 3/8 of an inch, giving it an overall height of 1-3/8 inches. The slightly longer angled tabs that will actually attach to the step assembly extend the bracket by 5/8 of an inch, giving it an overall height...

  • Congrats on the new vehicle! The best wiring kit for flat towing is going to be the Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights item # RM63MR. The included diodes convert your 12V signal from your RV's wiring to a 9V signal so your tail lights work as intended.
