• Optronics LED RV Utility Light as a Dome Light
• Yes, the Optronics LED RV Utility Light item # UCL60CB will work as a replacement dome light. You will need to make sure you don't have your dimmer turned down. LED lights do not have the low ranges on the dimmers as incandescent bulbs do and that could have been your issue with previous LED lights. I recommend turning it all the way up and then adjusting it down for your preference.

• Parts Needed to Connect Portable Propane Tank to Motorhome for Auxiliary Source
• You need to Tee into your propane line before the regulator, like you mentioned and connect a portable DOT tank in there. Part # 103538-MBS is a tee that fits between your built in ASME tank and your current regulator and it has 2 quick disconnect fittings on it. The included hose connects a DOT tank to one of those quick disconnect fittings so you can run off that tank instead of your built in tank. This keeps you from needing to pack up your motorhome and go somewhere just to fill up...

• Parts Needed to Add a 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2012 Ford E-350 Van
• f your 2012 Ford E-350 van does not have a trailer connector at all you will first need to install a 4-Way, # 118551, before you can install a 7-Way. Next you will need an 4 and 7 Way installation kit # ETBC7. This will provide the 7-Way and all of the wiring needed to make it functional and add a brake controller if needed. For a brake controller I recommend the Tekonsha P2, # 90885. It is one of our most popular controllers because it is reliable, easy to set up, and easy to sue. I have...

• Adding a Trailer Wiring Harness to a 1991 Ford E-350 Ambulance with Separate Wiring
• To install a 4-way trailer connector I recommend using the universal wiring harness # 119250KIT. It will combine the separate wiring on your 1991 Ford E-350 Ambulance. Then use our # ETBC7 kit to convert the 4-way to a 7-way. This kit includes everything for a fully functioning 7-way, as well as the wiring to install a brake controller if you need one. If you do need a brake controller I recommend the Prodigy P3 # 90195. It's one of our top controllers because of the easy-to-use LCD screen.

• Parts Needed To Add a 7-Way To a 1999 Ford E-350 15 Passenger Van With Factory 4-Way
• I have a couple options as we do not have a 7-way that will connect to your factory connectors on your 1999 Ford E-350 15 passenger van. First if you can identify the wiring for the charge line and brake controller line you will be able to connect the Curt Trailer Connector Adapter # C57672 to your current 4-way and wire in the connections for the brake controller line, charge line and reverse circuit. If you are unable to identify the additional wiring or they are not working the Universal...

• Parts Needed to Add a Trailer Brake Controller to a 2011 Ford E-350
• The power used by a trailer wiring harness like # 118551 only powers the trailer lights and will not have any affect on a brake controller or the 7-Way nor will either of those items affect the 118551. Since the 4-Way only has the lighting functions, when you hardwire the 7-Way you will need to run additional wires for the remaining functions. I have included a link to our wiring FAQ article with diagrams of various trailer connectors that you can use when hardwiring in the 7-Way. I...

• Parts Needed to Install a Brake Controller on a 2006 Ford E-450 Class C Motor Home
• If there is no trailer connector at the back of your 2006 Ford Class C motor home you will first need to add a 4-Way using # C56020. Then you will need to add the 4 and 7 way installation kit # ETBC7. I have included some links that explain this installation for you. If the van did come with a 4-Way flat, then you will need adapter # 37185. You will use controller wiring harness # 3035-P but the blue wire does not run to the back. The brake (blue) wire will need to be manually run from...

• 7-Way Connector for a 1991 Ford Van
• I have a solution for you but there is nothing that can adapt a 4 round vehicle connector to work with a 7-way trailer connector. I recommend replacing the 4-round connector on your 1991 Ford Van with a 4-Pole Hardwire Kit with Circuit Tester item # 18252. This will provide your van with a 4 flat that you can use to install the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires item # ETBC7. This kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer...

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1975 Ford Van with a Blue Ox Rangefinder II Tow Bar
• The Blue Ox Rangefinder II tow bar (BX4322) is compatible with adapter # RM-037 if you are using Roadmaster base plates on your 1975 Ford Van. However, neither Roadmaster nor Blue Ox have custom fit base plates that will fit your van. What you could do is use the Blue Ox universal bolt-on adapter tabs, # BX88266. I have included a link to the installation details for you. Be sure to check the van owners manual to make sure it can be flat towed. You will also need safety cables such as...

• Moving the brake controller to another vehicle is a normal process but we want to ensure that you have all of the necessary parts to have it work properly in your 1999 Ford E-450 motor home. There may be a wiring harness # 3035-P to connect # 90195 to your motor home.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2007 Ford Van
• The only wiring kits available for your 2007 Ford van that don't require splicing are universal magnetic lights like the Optronics, part # TL21RK. These plug into the RV's 4-way trailer connector and completely bypass the van's wiring. It sounds like you already have what you need to connect the van to the RV. However, from my research it sounds like you may also need a drive shaft coupling disconnect in order for the van to be towed with all 4 wheels on the ground. I recommend checking...

• Can I Use the Powerbuilt Unijack as a Stabilizer
• I have a solution for you, but the Powerbuilt Unijack Bottle Jack, part # ALL620471 is only designed to be used when you need to work on a trailer or change a tire, and is not designed to be used as a stabilizer. If you're looking for a better way to stabilize your 1993 Tioga Montara 29z, I recommend having a look at the ARK Drop Down Corner RV Stabilizer Jacks # AR34FR, which have drop legs that extend up to 24". These are part of a great new product line that we picked up from Australia...

• Recommended Brake Controller For A 2006 Ford Van With Factory 7 Connector
• I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR for your 2006 Ford Van. I like this controller over the others we offer because the main unit installs out of site with only the control knob showing on your dash, which will give your Ford Van a clean factory look. You will also need the Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # RED87FR. One end will plug into the Tow Pro Controller and the other end will plug into the connector underneath the dash. I attached an installation video...

• Difference Between Curt Hitch # 14053 and # 14055
• The main difference is that Curt Hitch # 14053 during the installation process the spare tire will have to be lowered or removed temporarily. The Curt Hitch # 14055 does not require that step. Both hitches have a bolt on installation and have a gloss black powder coated finish that is over a protective base that offers superior rust resistance. Both hitches also have a 10,000 pound maximum gross trailer towing weight and 1,000 pounds maximum tongue weight. Out of the two I would recommend...
