Reese doesn't provide that particular measurement, but I'd be happy to help you to place those rails in the correct position.
To correctly place the bed rails, the rear edge of the rear-most rail is placed so that it is 32-1/2 inches forward of the rear edge of the truck bed (the rear edge of the bed, not the tailgate). I've provided the page from the instructions that shows exactly how the rear rail is placed. Once the correct location for the rear rail is marked and the rear rail is... view full answer...
Installing a 7-Way and 4-Way combination trailer connector, like part # HM40975-11998, that you referenced, on your 1995 Ford F-350 is fairly easy, but for these trucks there are 2 different wiring situations if you do not have a factory 7-way trailer connector.
If your vehicle has factory 4-Way trailer wiring at the back you can use the Pollak 7-Pole and 4-Pole Trailer Connector, # HM40975-11998, and splice the wires to the wires under the rear of the vehicle along the drivers side frame... view full answer...
The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector, part # HM48470, would have to be hardwired to your existing wiring harness. If the 7-way you have on your 1995 Ford F-250 SuperCab is a plug-in connector you will need to sever the wires on the back of the connector. Then, attach each wire from the factory harness to the screw, for that same function, on the back of the Hopkins connector.
If you have a plug on your 1995 Ford F-250 SuperCab wiring harness that matches... view full answer...
Yes, you will be able to use an offset coupler like the B&W Extend-A-Goose # BWTEXA4200 on your 8ft long truck bed. We actually had someone recently who wanted to use their offset coupler in reverse so that it brought the trailer 10" closer to keep their trailer within the DOT length limits. B&W confirmed that it could be used in this manner if you needed to. view full answer...
The 4-way connector on the Tow Ready 4-Way to 7-Way Trailer Wiring Adapter, part # 30717, will connect to the 4-way already on your 1995 Ford F-250. You will need to run the blue wire on the adapter up the truck and connect to the brake output wire on your brake controller, usually also blue. You can splice into the blue wire on your brake controller wiring harness using the quick splice 10-12 gauge, part # SWC501915-1. I am including a video link of how the quick splice is connected.

The Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System # HM50002 that you referenced is designed to fit the standard 7-way connectors like what you have on your 1996 Ford F-250 so it would be a great solution. I attached an install video that shows it installed on a similar 2003 Ford F-250 for you to check out as well. Basically the camera portion just installs inline with the 7-way wiring that you currently have. view full answer...

Wiring a 5-way flat connector on your 1992 Ford Truck should be a fairly simple process. You have two options for wiring a 5-way flat connector which are hard wiring a new wiring harness or adding an adapter.
To hard wire a 5-way connector you will want the 5-Flat Vehicle End Wiring Harness, # HM37908. To install this wiring harness, you will cut off your 4-way connector and splice the wires from the 5-way flat into the wires from the 4-way connector color for color. There will be an additional... view full answer...
When installing the Optronics # MCL48AB as a blinker/turn signal you will connect the white wire to the ground wire as you've noted. You will then connect the red wire to the turn signal circuit for that side of the trailer and the black wire will be connected to the running light circuit. This light will be illuminated any time the running lights are on and blink when the turn signals are engaged.
If you check out the attached video review of this light it does a really good job of showing... view full answer...
In regards to the HappiJac Custom Tie-Downs for Truck Bed Camper part # LC182910-182971 which is a fit for a 1996 Ford F-250/F-350, the front tie-downs mount inside the bed on the back wall and the rear tie-downs mount to the rear bumper. If you don't already have turnbuckles, I recommend the HappiJac Original Turnbuckles part # LC182898. view full answer...
For most applications, the factory plug for installing a brake controller is located beneath the dash, near the center console. You will need to remove the lower dash panel underneath your steering wheel to access it. Check out the picture I attached to see it pointed out.
I also attached an install video for you to check out as well.
The wiring harness part # 3035-P that you referenced will plug into this port and will wire to your brake controller. view full answer...
The blue and orange wires that you connect to the # 37185 adapter via two 10 gauge wires # 10-2-1 should be located next to the plug between the back tires and rear bumper on the driver's side of your 1994 Ford F-250 (see attached pictures).
I have also attached a link to a helpful article on this installation for you to reference. view full answer...
The 9-Way Round Pin Trailer Connector - Vehicle Side # R9CB will connect simply by stripping the wires and using the screws located at each pin to connect your wires. Then you simply reconnect the two screws that secure the connector to the housing. I've attached a video to assist.
The 9-Way Round Pin Trailer Connector - Trailer Side # R9TB will install in the same way. I've attached a video of the installation of a 7-way which will be a very similar installation. I recommend using... view full answer...
The tow package connection port on your 2010 F250 is clipped to the rear of the coin tray located in the center console. The coin tray will need to be temporarily removed so the connector can be detached from the rear of the tray. The 3034P can be plugged in, and the wires ran out the side of the center console as desired.
Our friends at Tekonsha kindly provided a photo showing the location of the tray. view full answer...
When mounting a cast head coupler like Bulldog # BDA256C0317 to its mounting channel you will want to torque the mounting bolts to the specification indicated by the manufacturer in the instructions. The torque spec will vary from coupler to coupler. You do not want the head to be loose in the mounting channel; the design of such couplers relies on a firm grip of the coupler head inside the channel to allow it to deliver its rated performance.
I have included a link to our range of cast... view full answer...
Do you see the white plastic piece in the shape of a U in the picture that you sent me? You will need to pull that piece out away from the harness to release it from the rest of the 7-way. Check out the video I attached and skip to the 3:25 mark to see how it unlocks and locks. view full answer...
I think I understand your confusion. The taillight system of your 92 Ford pickup uses what's referred to as a combined taillight system, which means that the right turn and brake light signal is combined and carried on one circuit and the left turn/brake light signal is combined and carried on another circuit. So, if you're looking at the front of the 7-way blade style plug, the 12-volt power feeds the pin in the 1:00 position, right turn/brake feeds the pin in the 3:00 position, brake... view full answer...
First, the closer you get to the axle on the trailer, the heavier that part of the trailer is going to be. That is important because where you mount the jack could determine if it is over or under capacity.
You would need to box out the frame so that it is square or rectangle and not an I so the jack can be safely attached. Usually to do this, you would weld on a couple of steel plates. However, welding to aluminum is tricky and requires a very skilled welder with experience. This is probably... view full answer...
Yes, you can tie into the wiring from the bathroom light to install a fan for your vent. This vent fan has a switch on the assembly, so you will either have to wire into constant power before the switch to use independently or you will need the swich on to have power to the switch on the fan. view full answer...
The Universal-Design Rocker Switch - SPST - On-Off # PK34310 has a red pilot switch which comes on when the switch is in the "on" position and vice versa.
This switch uses on-off circuitry, so when you flip the switch to the "on" position your lights will be on, and when flipping it to the "off" position they will turn off.
