  • Do the Old Tenkosha Plugs Match the New Tekonsha Plugs?

  • Class V Trailer Hitch Fit for 1993 Ford F350
  • Because the mounting flange of the Curt # C15511 Class V hitch has 3 tabs on each side, rather than a continuous mounting flange like many other hitches, it'll fit around the rivet shown in your photo. However, be aware that the Curt # C15511 is a fit for cab/chassis models only and won't fit a vehicle that has a standard truck bed on it. Chassis/cab models have a narrower frame which is why this hitch wouldn't work on a pickup model. If you have a pickup model with the 37-1/2 inch frame...

  • Can RoadActive Suspension Be Used on Front Leaf Springs on Vehicles that Have Them
  • I spoke with my contact over at RoadActive Suspension. He said not to use it on front leaf springs because there are so many other moving parts at the front end and they do not test them or rate them for use at the front. If your truck is 4-wheel drive there is another option for adjustable suspension enhancement. You could use Firestone air bags # F2223. It also costs less that the active suspension system.

  • No, the Air Lift frame brackets are in the location on the truck frame that the gooseneck hitch frame brackets need.
