  • Parts Needed to Carry a Yakima LockNLoad on a 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500
  • As long as you've got an existing roof rack system with crossbars then you can use the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 84" Long x 62" Wide # Y05049-39 since this comes with the hardware to mount to most factory and aftermarket crossbars. If you don't already have a roof rack then you will need to add one and the roof rack you need will depend on whether or not you've got the factory mounted tracks on the high roof. If you've got the tracks, then I recommend using...

  • Trailer Hitch, 7-Way Trailer Connector and Brake Controller for 2010 Mercedes-Benz GL450
  • The only hitch our vendors offer for the 2010 Mercedes-Benz GL450 is the Curt # C13102, which has the 3500 lb weight capacity you mentioned. The # C13190 hitch you'd looked at isn't a fit for your vehicle, it's for a later model Mercedes GL or GLS. To install a brake controller, you'll need to start with a 4 pole trailer connector which would be provided by # C59236. For a brake controller, I really like a remote mount controller such as the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty, part # RED24FR. The...

  • Is There A Vehicle Specific Trailer Brake Plug-In Adapter For The 2007 GMC Sierra 2500HD New Body?
  • In regards to your 2007 GMC Sierra 2500HD new body, there is no plug under the dash present for the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 to plug into, which is why there is no vehicle specific adapter available. All of the wires are already run under the dash since you mentioned you have the factory tow package, you will just need to connect the brake controller wiring to the factory wires.

  • Recommended Inner Dual Wheel Valve Extenders for 2013 Winnebago View
  • It sounds like you're in need of the Wheel Masters 2-Hose Inflation Kit - 16" to 19-1/2" Inner Dually - Hand Hole Mount # WM8009, which will work on 16" to 19-1/2" inner dually wheels to allow you to check the air pressure and inflate the tires as needed. These are stainless steel wrapped, so they've going to be protected from the occasional pinch and other wear and tear that might ruin simple rubber valve extenders. I've linked a review video on these for you to check out, and they come...

  • Recommended Lights for Aluminum Cargo Carrier on a 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML550
  • What I recommend installing is the Optronics LED Trailer Tail Light # STL78RB on either side of your cargo carrier. Then for your connector use the Wesbar Wishbone Wiring Harness # 002402 with the Hopkins Adapter # 47345 so it is compatible with the 7-Way on your 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML550. The wiring configuration for the Wesbar wishbone is as follows: White - ground wire Yellow - left turn/brake light Green - right turn/brake light Brown - tail lights For extra wiring use the Bonded 4...

  • Flat Tow Components For A 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Van 2500
  • Yes, it is possible to flat tow your 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 behind your RV. The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU33MR you inquired about does fit your vehicle, but you're also going to need a couple more things for a complete setup. You're also going to need a set of tow bars like the Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX7420 which will fit the Blue Ox base plates # BLU33MR, and has a maximum towing capacity of 10,000-lbs. Finally, you'll need a braking system like # HM39494, tow...

  • Needing Long Ball Mount With 4 or 5 Inch Drop
  • Although we don't have a 15-3/4 inch long ball mount with a 4-5 inch drop, we can get you pretty close to that. The Curt # C45270 measures 13 inches in length measured from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the hole where the trailer ball installs. This is the longest ball mount we offer with the type of drop you're needing. The ball mount has a 7500 lb towing/750 lb tongue weight capacity and a 4-inch drop, For a 1-7/8 trailer ball, use # 40038 or # 63845 for a 2-inch ball.

  • Are there Left Handed Entry Door Handles Available
  • There are not left or right hand door locks but there are door locks that can be installed on either side. So your best bet is to use either something like the Global Link RV Entry Door Locking Latch Kit with Keyed Alike Option # 295-000019 or the Bauer Products Motorhome Door Lock # BA64FR you were looking at and just flip the latch upside down.

  • Will the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket for Factory Rails Fit on Flush Mounted Rails
  • I have a solution for you, but the Surco Safari 5.0 Roof Cargo Basket for Factory Rails # SPS4560-1101 is designed for raised side rails and it appears that the 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC 350 has flush side rails; the Surco # SPS4560-1101 is not compatible with flush side rails. If you've got factory crossbars for your GLC 350 then you'll need to use a different roof basket like the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115-117, which is similarly sized to the Surco basket and designed to fit...

  • Adding a Hitch and Trailer Wiring to 2002 Mercedes Benz E-Class
  • There is a wiring harness available for your 2002 Mercedes Benz E-Class, and you need Vehicle Wiring Harness Kit # C59496, which is a fit for your vehicle. As for hitch # C11830 the holes would be drilled in the frame of the vehicle. They would be small holes that would only need to fit the 7/16" hardware of the hitch and would not affect your Mercedes.

  • Wireless Electric Trailer Brake Controller for a 2010 Mercedes Benz GL 450
  • The Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Brake Controller, part # TK94FR, is a universal controller that can work on any vehicle. All it needs to operate is a 7-way trailer connector at the rear of your 2010 Mercedes-Benz GL 450 that has a functioning 12 volt power circuit. If your Mercedes doesn't have a 7-way on it already you can add one. First you want to add a 4-way using the Hopkins, part # 46255. Then use our # ETBC7 kit to convert the 4-way to a 7-way. You don't even have to install...

  • Replacement 12 Volt On Off Rocker Switch
  • Yes we do have them. I personally prefer the Universal-Design Rocker Switch - SPST - On-Off - 12 Volt - 20 Amp - 3-Blade - Red Pilot Light # PK34360. The red indicator light lets you know if it is on or off from a distance. If you like the simple standard look we have the Single Rocker Switch - Labeled On/Off - SPST - Black # 37212595. It doesn't have a light indicator it is just labeled with ON/OFF. We also have the Single Rocker Switch - 12V - On/Off - SPST - Black Plate with Blue Illuminated...

  • How Can I Carry A Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Cargo Basket On My 2014 Mercedes GL450 w/ Raised Rails
  • I am happy to help get your 2014 Mercedes-Benz GL450 setup to carry the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket - 84" Long x 50" Wide, part # SPS5084. This basket can be attached to your vehicle two ways. You can attach it directly to the rails of your vehicle or you can install it to a roof rack. Installing the basket directly to your roof rails would be the least expensive of the two options, but installing it to a roof rack would offer you the most versatility. I will include both...

  • Parts Needed to Add Electric Brakes to a Wells Cargo SW-10 Single-Axle Service Wagon Trailer
  • A good starting point for your project to add electric drum brakes to your trailer is a review of the linked article which covers this process in detail. You will need to select brakes based on the weight rating of the axle on your trailer, which should be indicated on a sticker or plate, and you'll need to select new hub/drum assemblies that use the same bearings as the hubs currently on your trailer. This will ensure compatibility of the new hub/drum assemblies with your spindles. If...

  • Recommended Tire Chains for LT245/70R17 Tires on 2021 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 2500
  • Yes, we do have a number of chains that will fit on your LT245/70R17 tires. I recommend using the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - XG12 Pro - Size 255 # TH2004705255, which are a confirmed fit on 245/70R17 tires. I really like these Konig chains because they give you a high quality tire chain that self tensions, plus the diamond pattern provides you with much better traction and a smoother ride than ladder style chains. These Konig chains drape over the...

  • The Curt Class III 2 Inch Hitch, part # C13010 will fit your 2010 Mercedes-Benz G-Class vehicle. A hitch ball is only needed if you will be towing a trailer. The hitch ball is located on a ball mount that fits into the trailer hitch. It is where the trailer coupler would connect to the trailer hitch. A hitch ball is not needed if you will only be using the hitch for a bike rack. Since you will be using the Curt hitch for non-trailer loads like a hitch bike rack, you will need to use a...
