Expert Answers about Off Road Accessories


  • Will etrailer Off Road Carrier with Threaded Hitch Pin Work On Trailer Hitch With Smooth Hole
  • The hitch pin hole on a trailer hitch is not threaded, they are all smooth. The hitch pin holes on hitch mounted accessories such as the etrailer Off Road Cargo Carrier part # e98875 for example are often threaded for anti-rattle purposes. The threaded hitch pin is small enough to pass through the smooth hitch pin hole on the trailer and then gets threaded into the weld nut on the shank of the hitch mounted accessory. Therefore, you won't have any issues using the above cargo carrier on...

  • Roof Basket Bike Rack Combo With An Off-Road Look
  • I also like the Off-Road look. You can use this Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07138-08. It's 62 inches long with only one extension # Y07108. It has accessory bars # Y07354 that helps organize cargo but you can also put a bike rack like the Yakima HighRoad # Y02114 on the bars! Both the basket and the bike rack are adjustable to fit each other, your bike and factory roof rack on your 2010 Toyota Highlander.

  • How to Install Yakima RoadShower to Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Roof Tray
  • The Yakima RoadShower Portable Solar Shower for Roof Racks # Y89VR can be installed on the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Roof Tray but you need to add the Accessory Bars to do so: - Accessory Bars # RR43232B The water in the RoadShower is meant to be used for showering, cleaning dirty gear, or rinsing other items off (like dishes), but it is not designed to hold drinking water so for that you'll need an alternative solution.

  • Compatibility of Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform for Crossbars with 2018 Jeep JLUR Mopar Crossbars
  • Yes. The Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF is compatible with the Mopar roof rail crossbars. If you will be off-roading the load capacity is reduced. It is recommended to divide your roof rack load capacity by 1.5 when driving off-road. There are many cool accessories you can add to this pioneer platform to customize it for your desired use. You can find many of them in the related products tab on the product page.

  • Using a Rhino-Rack Roof Rack to Go Off-Road on a 2016 Chevrolet Colorado
  • The Rhino-Rack ROC25 Vortex # RR93GR is an aerodynamic, low profile rack. I verified with Rhino-Rack that the bars are just as strong as the Rhino-Rack heavy-duty racks, however since the bars fit directly into the feet and do not have any over hang there is more weight being forced directly down onto the center of the bars and less weight being distributed across them. For a more rugged roof rack I suggest the 2500 Heavy-Duty Rack that consists of the 54 inch crossbars # RB1375B-2, the...

  • Will the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver work with a Thule Double Track Bike rack?
  • The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 31198 is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Tundra Crewmax SR5 with TRD Off Road package. Skid shield, if present, will be removed to create a four inch hole for oil filter access, and reattached, or may be left off. This front mounted hitch receiver will work with some bike racks but due to the large recess to the hitch pin hole an extension like # e88YR.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for a 4,500 lbs GeoPro Travel Trailer
  • I would be happy to help you find the right weight distribution system for your Geopro Travel Trailer. I will start out by saying if you are going to be off-roading you will absolutely want to unhook the bars. You will break or warp something very quickly. With that in mind, I recommend the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution item # BLU67FR. This system has a 600 lbs - 800 lbs tongue weight range which will cover your trailer perfectly. It also has built in sway control that will keep...

  • Can A Winch Battery And Trailer Breakaway Battery Both Be Charged Through 7-Way 12v Hot Lead
  • You would be able to charge both the trailer battery as well as the breakaway battery through your 7-way connection to the tow vehicle. This is very standard practice with most people just running a line from each battery to the 12v accessory terminal in the junction box # 3375601101. A 7-way on a vehicle is typically rated for 40amps DC so you won't be getting much going to the batteries once everything is divided up to power any other accessories tied into the circuit so this would be...

  • Will the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier RM-195125 Swing to the Right and to the Left?
  • The Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 can indeed swing left or right. Though I cannot 100% confirm your barn style door will be able to open with a 33 inch tire attached to it, I really don't see any issues either. This also goes with using it in an off-road setting. However, I will suggest attaching a Roadmaster Quiet Hitch Anti Rattle # RM-061 to keep everything as snug and secure as possible. I d also have to mention that the use of this spare tire carrier will reduce the tongue...

  • Will Using The Sidebars Affect The Total Weight Capacity Of The Yakima OverHaul HD Ladder Rack
  • The SideBar Rails # Y01153 would be included in the capacity of the Overhaul HD Ladder Rack # Y01152-5855 (this comes with the adapters included) so you would assume it's just the same as if you loaded something on top of the crossbars. The sidebars can only hold up to 100lbs weight though. With the rack having a 300lb off-road capacity you would subtract the weight of the Yakima RoadShower # Y89VR from it (water weighs 8.34lbs per gallon x 7 gallons = 58.38lbs plus the 30lb weight of...

  • Attaching Accessories To A Roof Top Basket
  • Unfortunately the design of the Tyger roof baskets will not allow any accessories to be attached to the basket. A basket that would be able to handle accessories attached to the rack would be the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 44" Long x 40" Wide, part # Y07138. It comes with two adjustable accessory bars that can be used to separate your load or attach a bike rack to the basket. This basket is 44" long x 40" wide x 7" tall with a weight limit of 165lbs.

  • Will the Classic Accessories Spare Tire Cover Fit a ST175/80D13 Trailer Tire
  • Yes, the Classic Accessories Custom Fit Spare Tire Cover, # 052963751109, will work well for your spare camper tire that is size ST175/80D13. A ST175/80D13 tire and a ST175/80R13 tire are the same size. The only difference, which is indicated by the D or R is the construction of the tire. Tires that have a D in the size are bias ply tires and tires with an R are radial tires. Tires have metal cords underneath the tire tread, on bias ply tires the cords run at a 32 degree angle from the...

  • Recommended Snow Plow for a 2017 Nissan Titan XD
  • As long as your front mount hitch receiver on your 2017 Nissan Titan XD was between 7 to 13 inches from the ground that the Personal Snowplow # SB324-081 that you referenced will fit. My contact at SnowBear confirmed this. The photo you are referring to is just a generic photo from the manufacturer. We also supply accessories for the SnowBear Snowplow like the Caster Kit # SB324-126 which allows you to wheel the snowplow when bringing it out of storage or putting it away into storage....
