- We can help you with a 5th wheel installation bracket kit for the base rails you want to install in your 2011 GMC Sierra 3500 with 6.5-foot bed.

- To set up a second vehicle for flat towing behind your MH you will need to get vehicle-specific base plates and possibly also a lighting solution, depending on what you're using. The same tow bar and safety cables can be used, as long as the second set of plates works with your tow bar, and possibly the supplementary braking system as well, if it is a portable type like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR. If you are using easy-install magnetic tow lights like # TLL21RK then these are easily...

This is needed to select an appropriate replacement cushioned pin box that will bolt right up in place of the OEM model.
You can use the linked page to select that OEM part to then see the compatible cushioned pin boxes, and cushioned pin boxes that also include a...

- If your 2002 GMC Sierra does not have a round U.S. Car connector to accept a 4-pole trailer wiring harness like # 118384 then it should have a bundle of wires tucked up above the spare tire (see the linked article, step 3, section B). The yellow wire is the left turn and brakes, dark green wire is the right turn and brakes, brown wire is for the taillights, and white is the ground.

view full answer... - Do I Need to Replace the Bearings When I Replace My Brakes
- Wheel bearings are going to be hub and spindle specific and aren't going to effect which brakes you'll want to use. It sounds like you might have a 7k axle with 12" brakes on your trailer, so you can use the # AKEBRK-7R-SA (right) and # AKEBRK-7L-SA (left) which are a self adjusting brake assemblies and a great choice. These are sold as single assemblies and are side specific, so you'll need to order the brake for each side, or the complete set is available with part # AKEBRK-7-SA. You...

view full answer... - Spare Tire Cover Needed for a Tire Size of 235/80-16
- If you are looking for a white spare tire cover then we do have the Classic Accessories # 052963751703 which fits tires that have a 31" - 31-3/4" diameter. Since your tire size of 235/80-16 has a 30.8" diameter I am not sure how well this will fit though as it will be slightly bigger.
Instead I recommend going with the Classic Accessories # 052963753875 which fits 30" - 33" spare tires so it will fit a little better plus it has a hook system to help create a tighter hold.

- For your 2011 GMC Sierra I recommend using a Derale 10,000 Series Stacked-Plate Cooler with -10 AN Fittings, like # D52510. I spoke with my contact at Derale and he said these coolers are popular among Allison transmission owners.
When choosing a transmission cooler, the largest cooler that will fit in the space available in your engine compartment is typically the best. Generally speaking, the larger the cooler the better the cooler performance. A stacked-plate cooler is the most efficient...

- Since you don't already have a factory connector on your 1999 GMC Sierra a 4-way trailer connector will need to be hardwired in.
I suggest using the # C59496. It includes all the wiring and connectors you'll need. It also includes a circuit tester so you can find the correct wires to connect the harness to. The wiring on your truck will need to be probed to find the correct functions to connect into.

view full answer... - Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2005 GMC Sierra 2500 with a Blue Ox Aventa LX Tow Bar
- For your 2005 GMC Sierra 2500 you will actually need Blue Ox base plates # BX1660. These base plates are compatible with the Avail tow bar # BX7420.
