  • What Replacement Soft Top do You Recommend for My 1998 Suzuki Sidekick?
  • It looks like the 1998 Suzuki Vitara was marketed as a 1998 Suzuki Sidekick in the United States. For that model, I recommend the Pavement Ends Replay Soft Top Fabric for Tracker, Sidekick - Clear Windows # PE5138015. This cover comes with zip-out windows waterproof fabric with industrial thread. If you are looking for a Windjammer model that is a year-round solution, I recommend the # B8006215.

  • Parts Suggestions for Flat Towing 1996 Geo Tracker
  • A tow bar isn't vehicle specific, so it will work with just about any vehicle that has a compatible base plate kit installed on it. For a 1996 Geo Tracker 2 door, you'd want to use the Demco # DM9517023 base plate kit which is compatible with your tow bar. You'll also need safety cables like the # RM-643 if you don't have them already. To wire the taillights so they operate in sync with those on the tow vehicle, I'd recommend a diode system like part # RM-154. The Blue Ox Patriot braking...

  • Tow Bar Wiring for 1993 Geo Tracker
  • If a vehicle has separate amber-color turn light lenses then it uses a separate lighting system. If there are not separate amber turn lights this means the system combines the stop/turn signals onto a single circuit. This is how a harness kit like # 119178KIT works. It takes in the separate stop light signal (on its red wire) and inside the converter module it combines this with both the right and left side turn signals. The green wire then carries right stop/turn signals and the yellow...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 1990 Geo Tracker
  • Curt trailer wiring harness # C56175 is listed as a fit for the 1990 Geo Tracker. The only hitch option is # 11128 and it fits both 2- and 4-door models. Since you are getting a hitch and wiring harness you will also need a ball mount and a ball to do some towing. The correct ball mount for this hitch and vehicle is # 3593. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch use # 19258.

  • Oil Filter Relocation Kit for 1991 Geo Metro
  • The Bosch 3330 filter uses a 3/4-16 thread. For a filter relocation kit, I'd recommend part # D15715 from Derale. The threads on the spin-on adapter that attaches to the filter landing and the remote mount are both 3/4-16, so this kit would work perfectly for you. The kit includes the spin-on adapter, the remote mount, the 1/2 NPT fittings, hose clamps and 10 feet of 1/2 inch ID hose.

  • Base Plates and Recommended Tow Bar for Flat Towing 1992 Geo Metro LSi Behind Motorhome
  • According to Roadmaster, their # 117-3 base plates aren't a fit for LSI models of the 1992 Geo Metro. However, the Blue Ox # BX3506 will fit your vehicle, so that's what I'd recommend. For a compatible tow bar, I'd recommend going with the # e47ZR etrailer brand SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Blue Ox base plates. The tow bar includes the needed safety cables. You'll also need a few other items to complete your flat towing system. For a wiring harness so the Metro's taillights work in tandem...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1995 Geo Tracker Behind a Motor Home
  • Think of base plates the same way you would any vehicle specific part. Specific models of base plates are designed to fit specific vehicles and cannot be moved to other vehicles. The Roadmaster base plates # 1146-1 will not fit a 1995 Geo Tracker. You would not be able to modify them without compromising their integrity. Doing so would make them unsafe to use and may not even be possible depending on just how different the two vehicles are underneath. Roadmaster has 2 base plate options...

  • Can 4.80-12 Size Tires be Used to Replace 145/80-12 Size Tires
  • I never recommend having different tires on your trailer at the same time. Maybe if one is a spare and you're only using for a short distance in an emergency but not for regular towing by any means. If you're going to change one tire to a 4.80-12 then I recommend changing both of them. The 4.80-12 tires are about an inch smaller in diameter and 3/4 of an inch skinnier so you won't have an issue with clearance. On the other hand we do carry 145/80R12 size tires. We part # AM10130 which...

  • What Parts are Needed to Use a Tow Ready Tow Bar with Roadmaster Base Plates on a 1992 Geo Tracker
  • In order to attach the Tow Ready Tow Bar, # 63180, to your Roadmaster base plates, you will need the Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Tow Bar Adapter, # RM-025. This will allow the two different parts to work together. The Roadmaster Quick Disconnect Tow Bar Base Assembly, # 910021-00, is for Roadmaster tow bars so it should not be needed, just the adapter and tow bar listed above. I have included a link to the installation details for the tow bar for you. Keep in mind that the Tow...

  • Base Plates and Crossbar Needed for Roadmaster RM-020 Tracker Tow Bar on 1992 Geo Tracker
  • For starters, you'll need a base plate kit like # 118-3 which is a fit for 2 door Geo Tracker models only. From the photo you provided, it appears you're missing the crossbar that the # RM-020 uses, unless you already have it an it just wasn't shown in the photo. A replacement crossbar is available as part # RM-025. The Tracker tow bar would typically be permanently installed on the vehicle, but it can be removed by removing the drawbars of the # 118-3.
