  • Recommended Winch to Run Off AC Power Source
  • I have a solution for you, but the Electric Winch # 2953AT is designed to work off of DC power, so it's not something you could plug into a wall outlet to work and it would require a 12v DC power source. Instead, you can use the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch, AC Powered - 2,700 lbs # DL24872 which comes equipped with a plug that will allow you to plug it into an AC power source.

  • Recommended Base Plate Kit Set Up For A 2022 GMC Canyon AT4
  • After doing some research I found out that The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM37VR will in fact work with your 2022 GMC Canyon AT4. When choosing the correct Tow Bar The Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain # RM-676 will connect perfectly with The Roadmaster Base Plate # RM37VR. I like this tow bar over the others because it has a non-binding design that allows you to release your vehicle at any time, anywhere even on unlevel ground.

  • 5th Wheel And Gooseneck Hitch Option For A 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 With No OEM Pucks

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch For A 2023 GMC Sierra 2500 Short Bed With Factory Puck System

This 5th wheel hitch has a direct bolt-on fit and requires no adapters and also has a sliding feature so you can gain clearance from the cab so you will no problems making turns.

  • Towing Mirrors With Heat For A 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
  • The K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirror # KS62076GE is the correct replacement for you. The mirror has the telescoping function that makes it easy to see around the sides of your trailer.

  • Replacement 4-Pole Wiring Harness for 2005 GMC Yukon XL
  • You probably could rig your damaged wiring harness in the way you describe, using diodes to keep the circuits separated, but I suggest just replacing the harness with a 4-pole set-up like # C59496. This is a hardwired harness with a substantial current capacity of 2.1 amps per stop/turn circuit and 7.5 amps for the tail lights. The risk in doing what you describe is that the wiring/circuits you would be accessing for signals may not be able to provide the required current for the trailer...

  • What Parts do I Need for a Complete Roof Rack System for a 2016 GMC Yukon XL?
  • I have a great solution for you. Unfortunately, the Yakima CoreBar Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers are only installable on truck beds. It will not fit on your flush factory rails on your 2016 GMC Yukon XL Denali. With that being said, for a great roof rack with a 220-pound weight capacity on your vehicle, I recommend the following roof rack setup: - Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 59" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA150B-2 - RCH Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars...

  • What is the Weight Capacity of Industry Standard Fifth Wheel Rails?
  • Valley Tow is no longer in business. It used to be the accepted capacity for all industry standard fifth wheel rails like your Valley Tow 55092 set is that they have the same capacity of any hitch that's installed in them. The current fifth wheel rails being released have specified capacities. This could explain why you are not able to find a capacity for yours. If you would like to upgrade the 5th wheel hitch on your 2008 GMC Sierra 2500HD I recommend the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer...

  • Which 5th Wheel Hitch for 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Denali Towing Grand Design Solitude 321RL
  • You'll want to choose your 5th wheel hitch based off of the GVWR of the trailer you're towing, but I typically like going with something a bit higher rated to give you some wiggle room if you decide to get a larger trailer in the future. I recommend using the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider for Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 20K # BWRVK3770, which will fit in the OEM prep package on your 2019 GMC Sierra 3500 Denali.

  • Troubleshooting The Curt Triflex Brake Controller On A 2017 GMC Yukon
  • You will first need to determine why The Curt Triflex Controller # C24VV is not working. You will need to check the correct fuse that corresponds to the brake control and its power supply. In the under hood fuse block (located near battery) fuse 36 is what you need to check. After checking if the trailer brake fuse is intact, you should then acquire a hook probe circuit tester # PTW2993. When the vehicle is on you will want to test the power wire (black) running into the controller....

  • B&W Slider 5th Wheel Hitch Options for 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 with 6-1/2-Foot Bed
  • For your 6-1/2-foot-bed 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 Denali you will need a sliding type 5th wheel hitch to give you enough turning clearance unless the 5th wheel trailer has a Sidewinder or Revolution pivoting pin box such as # RP34FR, for example. If it has a standard fixed pin box the slider is the other way to prevent your trailer overhang from suddenly "making friends" with the back of your truck's cab. You have two options for a B&W slider hitch. B&W makes excellent products and handles...

  • What is Needed to Transfer Prodigy P2 # 90885 Between 2008 Silverado and 2011 GMC Yukon XL

Both options include the required mounting hardware. I have linked representative installation videos for this brake controller in both a Silverado and a Yukon XL. You will also need to equip each vehicle with a Pigtail Wiring Harness # 7894 to allow the controller to simply plug in for use. A Prodigy P2 comes equipped with one...
