  • Cargo Carrier for Use in Class 1 Hitch on 2015 Nissan Sentra
  • In a Class I hitch you will need to use a cargo carrier that is also rated as Class I, such as Curt # C18110. We do have a number of these and they appear on the linked page, but the Class II Pro Series # 63155 may not be suitable. For a carrier close in size to the Pro Series I recommend the Curt # C18110 because it has more height rise in the shank for better ground clearance and provides handy tie down points for a cargo net # C18200 or bungee cords. If you go with Bungee cords, I...

  • Recommended Tire Covers For A 2001 Holiday Rambler Scepter 40 PDQ
  • For the 275/70R22.5 tires on your 2001 Holiday Rambler Scepter 40 PDQ we carry the Adco Ultra Tyre Gard RV Wheel Covers # 290-3950. These white vinyl covers have an elastic band at the top to grip onto the tire and grommets at the bottom so that you can secure the cover with a bungee cord. That being said I personally have used the SnapRing TireSavers Tire Covers # ST7004WH and prefer these hands down. The metal ring inside of these covers allows you to easily extend the cover over the...

  • Will Erickson Big Bed Junior Load Extender Work With 2019 Honda Ridgeline to Carry Kayak
  • So long as the 2019 Honda Ridgeline you are getting has a 2 inch receiver then the Erickson Big Bed Junior Load Extender for Truck Bed or Roof - 2" Hitches - 350 lbs # EM07605 would be a superb way to transport a 13 foot kayak. In fact, that's one of the most popular uses for this product as you can see by the accompanying photos, which customers sent in after using the load extender. The extender will require Pin and Clip # PC3 to ensure it is secure in your hitch, and you will also...

  • Cargo Net Compatibility with a Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket
  • The CargoSmart Stretchable Cargo Net, part # CS54FR, will fit your 54-1/2" X 40-1/2" X 5" Roof Mounted Cargo Basket. This cargo net uses a bungee cord net that allows it to grip a variety of different items. The CargoSmart cargo net provides plenty of strength, but that is dependent upon the type of terrain you are traveling on and the weight of the times on the roof rack. For heavier items you may want to use ratcheting straps like the Retractable Ratchet Straps with Push Button Release,...

  • Best Wheel and Tire Cover For 275/80R-22.5 Tire
  • The diameter of a 275/80R-22.5 tire is normally around 39-3/4 inches so you need a tire cover that fits 40 inch tires. A good option for a 40 inch spare tire cover is Camco part # CAM45251 in black. The Camco tire covers are designed with an UV resistant fabric and a non-scratch lining so your wheels do not get damaged while covered. They are also designed with an elastic cord and an adjustable strap to tighten the cover around the tire. The Camco covers are a good affordable option but...

  • Cover For a 21 Foot Bass Boat Trailer When Empty
  • You can use a Truck/Trailer Tarp # EM57051 as we do not have any covers specifically designed for a boat trailer. This tarp is 12' wide by 24' long and uses a tighter weave than general duty tarps so it will last. It has brass eyelets and steel d-rings making it easy to secure to your trailer with some Bungee Cords # EM06623.

  • Will Curt Aluminum Cargo Carrier Make Noise in the Hitch Because of Folding Mechanism
  • The folding mechanism on the Curt cargo carrier # C18100, or anything that folds, does allow a little play and that could lead to some noise. That is just the nature of the beast. The chance for movement and/or noise is greater if the rack is empty. I have seen some people use bungee cords like # EM06664 or #EM06656 to help control movement when the carrier is empty. Something less stretchy, such as a ratchet strap # 34413, is a better option for that.

  • Hitch Cargo Carrier for Class II Hitch on 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • You can use a hitch cargo carrier in the 1-1/4-inch Class II hitch on your 2011 Wrangler Unlimited, a hitch such as the discontinued Draw-Tite #36424, but the particular cargo carrier # e98874 that you referenced only fits a 2-inch hitch. No worries, though, since we have similar carriers to fit your Class II hitch. When we installed this Draw-Tite hitch on a 2012 Unlimited the hitch pin hole was about 10-inches forward of the back of the spare tire. This means you want to choose a carrier...

  • Recommended Tire Covers For A 7.50R16 Tire Size
  • A 7.50R16 tire size would indicate an overall diameter of 31.8" so I recommend the SnapRing TireSavers Tire Covers - 30" to 32" Diameter # ST7002WH. I've personally used these tire covers and love how easy they are to put on or remove. Simply pull the metal ring apart to fit over your tires and let it go for it to grip down on the tire, with no additional straps or bungee cords needed.

  • Recommended Tie Down Straps for BoxLink System on 2015 Ford F-150
  • With the BoxLink system on your 2015 Ford F-150, you have multiple options when it comes to tie down straps. You can attach directly to the BoxLink cleats or hook directly to the interface plate with a bungee cord, S-hook, or E-track fitting. I have attached a link to multiple options for tie downs. A couple popular options are the Erickson E-Track Strap with Ratchet, # EM59136, and Erickson Re-Tractable Ratchet Straps, # EM34415.

  • Master Lock EZ Grip Steel Hooks Compatibility with Painted Metal
  • The Master Lock EZ Grip Bungee Cord w/ Steel I-Beam Hooks - 24" Long # 3030DAT has hooks that are flat steel hooks. The hook opening is 7/8 inches wide and the hooks are 3 times stronger than the traditional wire hooks with a thickness around 1/8 inch at the hook.end. The placement of the hooks and the tension behind them will determine the paint remaining on your metal fence. Some fabric or foam may be a good idea to protect your surfaces if you will be using a lot of tension where...

  • Can I Haul an Extension Ladder on the PackEm Ladder Rack for Exterior Side Wall of Trailer
  • Yes, as long as the ladder is not wider than 6-1/4 inches it will work for an extension ladder. Keep in mind that the weight capacity is 75 lbs per ladder as well. Most 28 feet and 32 feet extension ladders fall under this weight limit. This ladder rack does come with bungee cords to secure the ladders to the rack, but to help deter theft I recommend using the RockyMounts SteelBraid Cable Lock # RKY3850 with the Master Lock Padlock # ML1KA. The Padlock can be keyed alike if you decide...

  • Tire Covers for 18.5 x 8.5 Tires on Snowmobile Trailer
  • Your tires should be 18.5 x 8.5 - 8 tires, which means they are on 8" wheels. If so, that is the same as a 216/60-8 tire which measures 18.2" in diameter. The tire covers I recommend for you are the Adco Tyre Gard # 290-3975, which fit 18" - 22" tires and simply slip over them while using bungee cords to tighten and secure the covers. They are made of water-repellent vinyl and come in black or white with part # 290-3955. I've added links to video reviews of these covers for you to check out.

  • What Tire Size is 35X12.50R20?
  • From the tire size you sent me, it looks like you have a 35" wheel. My recommendation for you is the Adco Ultra Tyre Gard Tire Cover series for 33" to 35" tires. They are my personal favorite due to how they come with a little bungee cord that loops through the bottom and makes the tire cover look more snug and sleek against your tire. These covers come in different colors: # 290-3951 - White # 290-3971 - Black # 290-3751 - Diamond Plate # 290-3651 - Camo I attached a video review of...

  • Is Curt Stabilization Strap Needed for Platform Bike Racks or Just Hanging Bike Racks
  • For Curt trailer hitches that have the warning regarding the use of stabilization strap # 18050 the warning is for any and all non-trailer loads. This would include platform style bike racks. How to attach the strap is the challenge. It doesn't have to be # 18050 just as long as whatever is used is rigid, so you couldn't use a bungee cord or anything with elasticity. Ideally you would attach the strap somewhere on the rack and then to the vehicle up higher than where it is attached on...

  • How To Reduce Noise With Pivoting Head of Reese Fifth Wheel Hitch Not Hooked to a Trailer
  • The Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Square Tube Slider part # RP30051 no longer has a lock out kit for the head available. I spoke to Reese and it was something they stopped manufacturing years ago. However, if you are experiencing a lot of noise then you want to make sure your rubber bumpers are not worn down. If you take a look at the exploded diagram of the hitch part 42 are the rubber bumpers that are meant to absorb the movement to reduce the noise. If they are worn out or missing...
