  • Will Installing the Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch on a 2008 Honda Fit Void the Vehicle Warranty
  • Installing the Draw-Tite Class I trailer hitch, # 24776, on your 2008 Honda Fit should not void the vehicle warranty, as long as it is not determined that the hitch itself caused the issue you are taking the vehicle in for service for. Your warranty is protected by the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act, which states in part that unless the modification to your vehicle caused the problem your warranty must be honored. This being said you will need to use common sense precautions when...

  • Are the Husky Liners WeatherBeater Custom Auto Floor Liners Flexible
  • The Husky Liners WeatherBeater Custom Auto Floor Liners # HL99053 are somewhat pliable but they are also custom fit to basically hug the floor of your vehicle. They aren't like regular carpeted or rubber floor mats. They are basically a skin covering the floor so they don't have need to be able to easily flex.

  • 2006 Ford F-150 XL STX Questions in Regards To Custom Towing Mirrors
  • STX is a appearance package which is an optional package on the Ford F-150. The STX is not a trim level, the STX can only be added to the XL trim level. According to my research the STX package started in 2003. However, the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors # KS81800 are a confirmed fit for your 2006 Ford F-150. Snap these custom-fit towing mirrors over your vehicle's existing mirrors for an expanded field of vision. Built-in mounting clips grab the inside edges of your factory...

  • Is the Westin Custom Fit Bumper the Exact Bumper that came with the 1998 Dodge Dakota
  • The Westin custom-fit bumper # 31012 is built to factory specifications to match your 1998 Dodge Dakota (fits all models but it won't be the exact bumper it came with originally. The bumper # 31012 is chrome with black steps. The step pads are a molded polymer plastic which creates a non-slip surface. As a result, provides you solid grip when you get in or out of your vehicle. Mounting hardware is included as it's a quick and easy bolt-on installation.

  • What is the Material of the WeatherTech Customed Molded Floor Liners
  • The WeatherTech Custom Molded Floor Liners have a rough texture on the surfaces to keep them from sliding on the carpet and to keep muddy shoes from sliding on the liner. They are made of a semi-rigid compound, a softer plastic. These liners are not like the generic rubber floor mats that are very flexible and flimsy rubber. They are soft and flexible enough that they can be folded and placed in their shipping boxes, but once they are laid out, they flatten to tightly fit the vehicle they...

  • What USA-Made Running Boards Fit My 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
  • I can definitely clarify the origin of production for the AeroTread Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit - 5" Wide - Aluminum - Black Stainless # AA2061009. Those boards are made in China. However, if you are looking for a great American-made set, I recommend the DeeZee NXc Running Boards w Custom Installation Kit - 5" Wide - Aluminum - Black Powder Coat # DZ16201-16241. The DeeZee NXc come with a similar style as the AeroTreads. The NXc also comes with the same 5-inch width footing...

  • Type of Glass and Origin for K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror Set # KS62075-76G
  • The K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror Set # KS62075-76G is an imported aftermarket product but it will fit in place of the OEM mirrors on a suitable vehicle such as your 2006 Chevrolet Silverado. K-Source does not make the OEM mirrors on the truck. Muth glass, based on my research, is a type of glass jar typically used for honey and that originated from Charles Muth in Cinncinnati, Ohio. I do not know of any automotive mirror applications using Muth glass. Please note that the...

  • Domestically Manufactured Hitch for 2016 Ram ProMaster 1500
  • Draw-Tite manufactures their receiver hitches in Mexico. If you'd prefer something manufactured in the USA, Curt offers a similar hitch as part # C13295. If you need a trailer wiring harness but you already have the factory tow package, you'd use # HM40975 or # 22112 if your ProMaster doesn't have the tow package. For a ball mount, use # C45030 and for a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19260 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball. Then you will need a pin and clip like # PC3. I've linked you to some installation...

  • How Does the Flint Hill Goods Cargo Carrier # FHG77ZR Hold Up In Cold Weather
  • The Flint Hill Goods Carrier # FHG77ZR that you referenced is made of steel, but it does have a corrosion-resistant black powder coat finish so it actually would hold up great in cold weather. One of the listed, intended, uses is to carry a snowblower. As long as your snowblower can fit in the dimensions of the carrier and does not weight more than the capacity of the carrier and the hitch of your vehicle this should work very well for you. The inside dimensions of the carrier are...

  • The Rampage 4-Layer Outdoor Vehicle Cover # RA1304 features a heavy-duty spunbond outer layer that works to shed water and protect your car against the sun and heat. The additional layers further protect your car from the elements, yet they are breathable and allow moisture to escape from under the cover. The vehicle cover has a 90-day warranty and is the most economical cover we offer for your 2016 Hyundai Sonata. For a cover that offers a higher quality design, I recommend the Covercraft...

  • What is a 7 Pin Trailer Plug Constructed From and How Does it Remain Connected When Towing
  • The wire making the connections has a copper conductor, and the pins are made of brass, for strength and corrosion resistance, also because it readily conducts electricity. The blades on the vehicle side of the connection are meant to fit tightly against the pins in the plug which helps hold the connection together. The cover on the socket also helps hold the plug in place, as well.

  • Fifth Wheel King Pin Weight and Truck Payload Capacity
  • The hitch pin weight of 1400 lbs you stated is so close to your payload capacity, but that is not accounting for the 5th wheel hitch and rail weights or the loaded weight with cargo added. Tunda's are notorious for having a lower payload and in this case, I can't tell you it will be fine. The payload weight is spread out over the truck bed where the 5th wheel rails are mounted to the frame directly so are more secure. Unfortunately manufacturers don't test for the 5th Wheel Hitch weight...

  • Where is the Draw-Tite Hitch for a 2007 Ford F-150 Made
  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75506 which is a fit for a 2007 Ford F-150 is made in Mexico. If you are looking for a USA option, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13360 is the way to go. If you need a trailer connector to go along with the trailer hitch, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56031 is plug-n-play.

  • Bolt Size for Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 75742 on 2014 Honda CR-V
  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75742 referenced in your question, which is confirmed to fit your 2014 Honda CR-V, uses four M10 X 1.25 X 30 CL8.8 hex bolts. If you happen to have any trouble threading the bolts into the frame of your vehicle, cleaning the weld nuts will typically resolve the issue. Because vehicles tend to pick up a lot of dirt and road debris beneath the frame, a good soaking with WD40 on the holes along with a wire brush treatment will allow the included...

  • Is the # 11280 Hitch for Subaru Baja The Same as a Dealer Installed Hitch
  • If you have a 2003 to 2007 Subaru Baja, the Curt Trailer Hitch, item # 11280, will fit and should install in basically the same location as an OEM hitch. As far as it being the same hitch that the dealer will install, one cannot be sure. Many dealers save on cost by purchasing aftermarket hitches and installing them rather than installing OEM products. You will need to contact the dealer to see what brand of trailer hitch they will install on your vehicle if you get one from them. Installation...
