  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2006 Buick Lucerne
  • For your 2006 Buick Lucurne, there are a few trailer hitch options. All of the available hitches are custom fit and compatible with all models and wheel sizes of your vehicle. I recommend the Draw-Tite Class II # 36309 as its install time is a bit shorter than the others. I have included an installation video on a 2006 Buick Lucerne for you to check out.

  • Will Inno Multi Fork Lock Roof Bike Rack INA392 Fit 2019 Buick Encore with Factory Crossbars
  • To determine if you will be able to open up your rear hatch door after installing the Inno Multi Fork Lock Roof Bike Rack # INA392, you'll need to take a quick measurement. With your rear hatch open, measure 52 inches back (toward the rear of the vehicle) from the front edge of the front crossbar on your Enclave. This is the space that will be occupied by the Canyon's rail assembly behind your front crossbar. So, if that measurement does not come into contact with your hatch door, you'll...

  • Can Rear Fascia Door be Reinstalled After Installing Trailer Hitch on a 2015 Buick Enclave
  • We have determined that on a 2013 and newer model Buick Enclave (including your 2015) you can reinstall the rear fascia door after installing trailer hitch # 75528. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend 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 or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. If the ball mount kit does not have the...

  • Will I Be Able To Use Factory Jack After Installing DeeZee Running Boards On 2014 Buick Enclave?
  • Without seeing the jack or lift point it is hard to say for sure, but installing the DeeZee NXc Running Boards w Custom Installation Kit # DZ16203-16211 shouldn't interfere with using your vehicle's factory service jack. You will likely need to come at the lift point from a different angle but it should work just fine for you. I attached a demonstration video for you to check out regarding these running boards.

In order to tow with your 2018 Buick Envision you will need a couple things, starting with a trailer hitch. The best option for a hitch by far is from Curt because it not only has the best bumper and ground clearances,...

  • All of the hitches we carry, Class II and Class III, for the 2005 Buick Rendezvous (see link) state that they will fit the 2 wheel drive and the all wheel drive models. The tongue weight varies only between the Class II and Class III models, with the Class II models showing 300 pounds tongue weight capacity and the Class III models showing 350 pounds tongue weight capacity. The hitch can be installed on your front wheel drive vehicle and will not affect the rear suspension as long as you...

  • Will Thule T2 Platform-Style 2 Bike Rack # TH917XTR Fit On a 2012 Buick LaCrosse
  • The Thule T2 Platform-Style 2 Bike Rack, part # TH9045, will fit a 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver. If you have a hitch on your 2012 Buick LaCrosse it should be a 1-1/4 inch size because that it is the only size that is made for that vehicle. You might want to measure the inside of the hitch receiver to make sure it is 1-1/4 inches wide.

  • Will Swagman Cable Lock Fit Thule Threaded Hitch Pin for a Thule Bike Rack on a 2011 Buick Enclave
  • Manufacturers make their threaded hitch pins and locks unique so that they can only be used with their products so you cannot use a Swagman lock in a Thule bike rack. The correct lock for a Thule bike rack is # THSTL2. You can also get Thule cable lock # TH538XT and then add Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders, # TH450200, to key the hitch and cable locks alike to use 1 key for both locks. I have included a video review of the Thule lock for you.

  • Flat Towing Lighting Solution for a 2012 Buick Enclave
  • The bulb and socket kit, # RM-155, does fit the 2012 Buick Enclave. Wire length could be an issue on any vehicle. It all depends on how the wires are routed under the vehicle. Normally, unless it is a truck, the wire length is more than enough. Bulb brightness can be affected by several factors including getting the proper voltage back from the RV. The bulbs that are used are automotive bulbs (incandescents) which are not as bright compared to LEDs. What I recommend is to use the custom...

  • Curt Hitch for Motorcycle Towing With 2018 Buick Encore
  • The Curt Class I hitch # C11527 is rated for 200 lb tongue weight and 2,000 lbs towing, most small utility/motorcycle trailers and one dirt bike would be less than this max range; please reference your trailer and motorcycles weight for an accurate assessment. I highly recommend that you refer to your specific vehicle's owner's manual prior to towing. My research, the online manual I have available (Part No. 84098804 B Second Printing), has a statement on p197 "The vehicle is neither...

  • Will the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier Fit a 2010 Buick Enclave
  • Yes, the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV is confirmed by Thule to fit your 2010 Buick Enclave. If you will be carrying women's, children's, or alternative frame bikes, I recommend using the bike adapter bar, # TH982XT, for greater ground clearance and to carry the bike more level. I have linked a video of the adapter as well.

  • Wiring for a 2017 Buick Encore and a 2007 Ural Retro to a 6-Pin Round Wiring Harness
  • To add a 6-Pin round connector to your vehicle you will need an adapter in addition to the wiring harness that you referenced. For your 2017 Buick Encore the Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness # C56363 is where you'll need to start. The Next thing that you will need is the 4-Pole to 6-Pole Adapter # A10-6034VP. This will plug right into the 4-Way that you already have installed on your Encore. All you have to do at this point is add the extra wiring using 10 Gauge Wire # 10-1-1 in addition...

  • Can a Harmar AL160 Scooter Lift be Carried by a 2011 Buick LaCrosse
  • I checked up on the Harmar AL160 scooter lift. It is pretty sweet. According to the specs the hitch height range is 5 to 18 inches. The trailer hitches for your 2011 Buick LaCrosse will be within that range so you would not have to change anything using that lift with a trailer hitch.

  • Will the Thule Motion Cargo Box Fit the Factory Roof Rack on a 2011 Buick Enclave
  • Yes, the Thule Motion cargo box, # TH629706, is a fit for the factory crossbars on your 2011 Buick Enclave. I have included a link to a video review of this box being installed on a similar vehicle with a similar roof rack for you. I also recommend using a tire step, # PT68ZR, which will make accessing the box easier. Be sure to check the Enclave owner's manual and/or with Buick for the roof/roof rack weight capacity prior to loading.

  • Will the Draw-Tite # 36374 Fit a 2006 Buick LaCrosse CXS with Dual Exhaust
  • The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 36374 that you referenced is listed to fit all models of the 2006 Buick LaCrosse. We haven't had a chance to test fit this on a LaCrosse with dual exhaust but since the trailer hitch is symmetrical, if the exhaust looks the same on both sides then it will fit no problem! Attached are the installation instructions and a video on a 2009 LaCrosse for you to check out. If you let me know what you will be using this trailer hitch for I can make additional...

  • Will the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier Fit a 2014 Buick Enclave
  • The Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier part # M2200-01-02 requires that you have 4" or fewer from the center of your hitch pin hole to the rear edge of your bumper. The trailer hitch options we have like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75528 do not meet this requirement (5") which means the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier may not work for you depending on the above measurement for your 2014 Buick Enclave. If the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier will not work then the GearDeck 17...

  • Does HTAD Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter HTAD Have Solid or Hollow Shank
  • The 1-1/4-inch shank of the Brophy Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter # HTAD is solid, not hollow, so it will not work with an anti-rattle device like # SHP2082. All 1-1/4-inch to 2-inch hitch adapters have a solid shank for strength. With this adapter you can use a standard hitch pin like # PC2 or a lock like # 5200. Any hitch adapter will cause you to lose half of your hitch receiver's rated capacity so be sure to check that the weight of the installed accessory does not exceed this reduced...
