  • What Wooden Location Should I Mount My Thule Roof Mounted Top Rack System # THTB60?
  • I have an answer for you. As far as mounting the Thule Roof Mounted Top Rack System # THTB60 to the wooden sheathing on your Adventurer 89RB camper, Thule does not recommend using the track system on any material other than fiberglass. The reason for this is because the anchoring capability of wood is not as stable as mounting the tracks to fiberglass. This could result in cargo detaching from the roof. Also, mounting the tracks to wood will void all associated warrantees. However, if there...

  • Hardwiring a Reese Brake Controller to Factory Brake Control Harness on a 2011 Dodge Ram Sport
  • On your 2011 Dodge Ram Sport the wire colors you have do not match anything that I have on the factory brake controller harness so to determine the functions the factory harness will have to be tested using a circuit tester such as # 40376. There should be a wire that has power all the time. This is the 12 volt wire and connects to the brake controller black wire. There should also be a wire that only has power when you step on the brake pedal. That wire will connect to the brake controller...

  • Troubleshooting No Running Lights on 2005 Dodge Durango Trailer Connector
  • Try checking fuses 7 - 10 on your 2005 Dodge Durango as they are all for the parking (running) lamps. If all of them look okay then what you need to do is either trace the wire for your trailer running lights from your 4-Way/7-Way and replace/repair anything that is in bad shape or you can run new 16 Gauge Wire # 16-1-1 from your trailer connector to those functions either at the front of your Durango or by the OEM lighting at the rear. It may be helpful to install a diode like part #...

  • Does 2018 Dodge Durango Need to be Flashed to Install Brake Controller
  • While I don't know off-hand whether or not you'll have to get your 2018 Dodge Durango flashed to use a brake controller like the P3 # 90195 with the Adapter # TK93VR, there is an easy way to figure that out. At the very least you should see the 12V power pin active, but if you plug in your trailer and the lights are working then you shouldn't have to take your Durango in to a dealer. If you don't have a trailer then you can use a circuit tester like part # PTW2979 to test your 7-Way pin...

  • Operating Instructions For The K-Source Custom Flip Out Tow Mirrors
  • The K-Source Custom Flip Out Towing Mirror - Electric/Heat - Textured Black - Driver Side Item # KS60114C will need to manually be flipped out and the actual glass mirror will be controlled by the mirror button inside of your vehicle. So if you set the glass mirror a specific way and then flipped the housing up to tow the glass mirrors would still be where you left them position wise and you could change them by using the controls. It will not auto adjust the mirrors when you flip the housing...

  • How to Remove Stromberg Carlson VGD-02-100 Tailgate to Load 4-Wheeler in Truck Bed
  • It sure is! You'd start by opening the tailgate an slipping off the safety cables that hold the tailgate open to 90°. Then, tilt the tailgate so it's open to 45°, lift up on the passenger side-end of the tailgate and as you're lifting, slide the whole tailgate to the right so it slips off the pivot on the driver's side. After the first time, it'll take a minute or so.

  • Does the Jensen Antenna Part # JAN139 Swivel/Tilt
  • If by rotate you mean swivel/tilt then yes, the Jensen Antenna part # JAN139 is not a fixed antenna. As you can see from the attached video, the upright mast can be folded flat or swung upright. The base can also be mounted vertically or horizontally depending on your needs. I have attached an additional photo to show the swivel/tilt feature for you as well. If this isn't what you were referring to then please just let me know.

  • Will Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller Continue to Draw Power if a Trailer Isn't Plugged In
  • Yes, the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 continues to draw a small amount of power even when the trailer isn't plugged in. After about 15 minutes of the tow vehicle being turned off and no movement the controller will go into sleep mode which is where that 3.6 milliamps comes into play. This isn't enough to drain a good battery overnight or even over a weekend, but you'll want to disconnect the controller if the vehicle won't be used for a few weeks. This is pretty standard for brake controllers...

  • Installation of the Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set # UF17-943010 requires three steps for installation: 1) welding on the jack hanger brackets to the front of the trailer frame under the overhang, 2) bolting the jacks assemblies to the hanger brackets and 3) wiring the two independent power switches to your 12V power source. Together these two powered landing gear jacks have a 12,000-lb capacity for leveling and stabilizing your trailer. They cannot be used to lift the entire...

  • Where Does the Brake Controller Output Wire Terminate on a 2008 Dodge Ram without OEM 7-Way
  • On a 2008 Dodge Ram that did not come with a 7-Way trailer connector the brake controller output wire does not run all the way to the back of the truck. It stops at the connector that is located under the driver's side wheel well. I have linked a help article that covers this and other steps. But if you have a factory 7-Way then you would not need to worry about that because the wire would be run all the way back.

  • Parts Needed to Install Trailer Brake Controller Wiring On a 2003 Dodge Durango Without Tow Package
  • For your 2003 Dodge Durango without the OEM tow package wiring, you will need to hard wire a brake controller. We have detailed instructions and all of the parts you will need. First, you will need to start with the brake controller itself. The Prodigy P2 brake controller, item # 90885, would be a great choice. You will not need the wiring harness, item # 3020-P, for Dodge vehicles, since your vehicle did not come equipped with the factory tow package. Even though the plug may be present...

  • Why Do Air Ride Helper Springs have to be Deflated if Lifting a 2008 Dodge Ram by the Frame
  • You are correct. If you have air helper springs on your 2008 Dodge Ram, it is recommended that the vehicle not be lifted by the frame. The reason is that because of the way the springs are attached to the truck, lifting the truck by the frame could over-extend them. This could cause damage to the springs. Deflating them would allow them to expand more than if they were inflated. I have included a link to the instructions below.

  • Location of Brake Controller Connector on 2010 Dodge Ram
  • The brake controller installation on a 2010 Dodge Ram would be pretty much identical to that as the 2009 model shown in the video. The installation port is located under the dash midway between the emergency brake and the brake pedal, just above where your left knee would be as you are sitting behind the wheel. The connector is either white or light blue in color. If you need the wiring adapter that connects the brake controller to the under-dash connector, we offer it. The part # is 3021-P...

  • Where is Brake Controller Adapter Plug Located In 2002 Dodge Ram Pickup
  • The green connector in your truck is not the correct plug. It is normally a blue plug like what I have shown in the photo that plugs into the adapter part # C51332 if you are using a Curt brake controller like part # C51170. There will be a port to plug into if the truck came with a factory 7-way plug just to the right of the emergency brake. If the 7-way plug was installed after-market, you will need to see how far the wires from the plug are extended so you can complete the install...

Bed lengths are measured WITHOUT the tailgate and the above B&W hitch fits your 8-foot bed.

  • Wiring Vent with Electric Fan in 2009 Arctic Fox Travel Trailer
  • It sounds like the vent opening in your 2009 Arctic Fox Travel Trailer has been wired for a motorized vent like the Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # FV807350, which you referenced. You will want to test the wires, beginning with the gray wire, with a volt meter like # PT89ZR to see which is the 12-volt DC power source. The white wire is usually the ground wire which can be spliced to the existing white wire.

  • Grille Guard Installation for a 2014 Ram 2500HD SLT Regular Cab 8 Foot Bed
  • I was able to determine that the factory tow hooks will be kept when installing the Westin Sportsman Grille Guard # 40-3555 on your 2014 Ram 2500. There may be some trimming required on the lower valance for the brackets that attach to the frame. One person could perform this installation but 2 would make it much easier when it comes to attaching the grille guard to the brackets.
