- Vehicles like the Toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey that have a low stance can sometimes have ground clearance issues with a hitch installed. Tire size, passenger count and cargo load all affect your actual ground clearance but you can choose a hitch that will offer the most clearance to get you into your driveway.
The best option is the EcoHitch model with concealed cross tube, part # 306-X7255. When we installed this on a 2017 Sienna the top of the receiver opening was 13-1/4-inches above...
view full answer... - How to Determine the Towing Capacity of a Vehicle
- Basically you will look in the vehicle owners manual for the towing capacities of that vehicle. Also there should be listed a gross combined weight rating. This is the maximum that the vehicle and trailer can weigh together and includes cargo, passengers, fuel and anything else in the vehicle and trailer.
Stay within the towing capacity and stay within the gross combined weight rating and you will be fine.
If you do not know how much the trailer weighs you can take it, loaded and ready...
view full answer... - Calculating Rise/Drop Ball Mount to Use with Curt Rockerball Hitch Ball
- So the Curt Rockerballs like the # C94CR sit about 1-1/2 inches taller than standard balls. And most rise/drop calculations are measured at the base of the ball and not the top so that changes the 16 inch height to be right around 14 inches for how our ball mounts are organized/measured. So then subtract the 1-1/2 inches of the Rockerball puts the height instead at 11-1/2 inches which is right at the 11 inches of your hitch opening. So that would mean you'd want a rise of right at 1/2 inch...

When we installed 2-inch Class III hitch # C13105 the top of the tube was 10-1/4-inches above ground. Please refer to the linked videos if you like.

- Using a suspension enhancement system like the AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs, part # AL60732 will not increase the load-carrying or tongue weight capacity of your 2015 Sienna. These are designed to help cushion heavy loads and help keep the vehicle level.
This air pressure in this system can be adjusted between 5 psi and 35 psi. This system will give you up to 1,000-lbs of support and help prolong the suspension of your Sienna.
If you want to be able to adjust the level of air pressure...

- Great question!
When it comes to weight ratings you are always limited by your least rated component. Since the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76112 has higher weight ratings than your 2016 Toyota Sienna, the 350 lb TW rating of your Sienna is your limiting factor and what you need to remain under.
If you let me know what you plan on using the Sienna for I can make additional recommendations if necessary. Attached is an installation video and some pictures for you to reference.

- You're right, it doesn't make much sense, so I reached out to Thule and they confirmed the Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 do not fit the 2017 Toyota Sienna. Then I asked why that might be since they are raised rails and they were unable to provide a specific reason behind it. So while I know it sucks, I can't tell you that it's okay to use your current WingBar crossbars since Thule says it won't work.
If you want a rack on your '17 Sienna, maybe you can sell those crossbars and go with...

- You are correct the Curt drawbar/ball mount part # C45270 that you referenced can provide 2 inches of rise or 4 inches of drop.
view full answer... - How Much Rise Does Curt Rockerball Give Ball Mount
- The Curt Rockerballs like the part # C94CR add 1-1/2 inches of height compared to a standard ball so if you used this with a ball mount that has 2 inches of rise like the # C45270 that you referenced you'd effectively have a 3-1/2 inch rise.
So for the amount of rise that you want your best option would be the part # C40047 for a Rockerball since it has a 1 inch shank diameter and then the Brophy ball mount # BM20 which has a rise of 3/4 inches. This would get you really close to what...
