  • 5th Wheel Rails Needed to Use a Curt Sliding Hitch on a 2019 Ford F-250 Short Bed
  • The exact part that you need to use your Curt sliding 5th wheel hitch, like part # C16541, in the short bed of your 2019 Ford F-250 depends on if you have the OEM prep package or not. If you do have the OEM prep package then you simply need the Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter # RP30156 which drops into your puck system. If you don't have the OEM prep package you need a base rail kit like part # RP50074-58 which doesn't require drilling for the install. Both of these options give you...

  • Parts Needed to Install Brake Controller and Wiring on a 2017 Chevy Express 3500 Van
  • I will be happy to help you find all of the parts you need to tow your trailer with brakes using your 2017 Chevy Express 3500 Van! To install a fully functional 7-Way connector, and ultimately a brake controller, on your Express Van you will need 4-Way wiring that carries the basic trailer light functions and the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7. For the basic light functions I recommend going with the T-One # 118392 which simply plugs in behind your tail lights (see attached installation...

  • Availability of Roof Rack for a 1981 Honda Prelude
  • We do have a roof rack option for your 1981 Honda Prelude! The only roof rack that will fit your Prelude is the SeaSucker Roof Rack which comes with 48" Monkey Bars and 6 vacuum cups, part # 298-SX6000B. Either option has a 150 lb weight capacity but that has more to do with the strength of the crossbars and your vehicle than it does the vacuum cups. The vacuum cups actually have a pull strength rating of 210 lbs each. I have attached a review video as well as a road test video that you...

  • Converting to Electric Over Hydraulic Disc Brakes From Electric Brakes on Trailer With 7K Axles
  • There are a number of parts you will need to replace the electric drum brakes on your trailer, and though there is not an all-in-one kit I can let you know the parts you need, starting with a disc brake assembly to replace your current hub and drum. I contacted Lippert with the serial number from you axle and based off what they told me the the correct brake kit is the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR712D which is for 7,000 lb axles and has an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern for your wheels. These...

  • Recommended Flat Towing Setup for 2019 Jeep Wranger
  • To get your 2019 Wrangler ready for dinghy towing I suggest starting with the Roadmaster EZ5 base plate kit # RM-521453-5. I like this kit for its twist-lock draw bars that need no pins, its hidden brackets that keep the Jeep looking good and because it is USA-made. The tow bar I like for your Jeep is the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 which features extra-long non-binding stainless steel arms that make for easier hookup and which lock into place automatically....

  • Towing a Trailer with a 5-Way Connector with a Vehicle with a 6-Way Connector
  • I recommend replacing the boat trailer's 5-way with a 6-way because there aren't any adapters between those two Cut the 5-way off as close to the connector as you can and install part # PK11604 onto the wires. It'll plug right in to your 6-way on your RV. If you sometimes tow the boat with a different vehicle and need to keep its 5-way then you can add a 6-way and have two connectors on it. Use a junction box from the kit # HS381-9000 with part # H20036. You'll need to connect the 5-way...

  • Cushioned Equalizer with Bolts and Shackle Straps for 2018 Diamond Cargo Enclosed Trailer
  • For the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers # LC279688, the manufacturer lists the Lippert Components Tandem Axle Equa-Flex AP Kit - Wet Bolts - 3-1/8" Long Shackles # LC64FR as a related kit and that would be my recommendation. This is a great option, but you can alternatively use regular bolts like # TRFA73Z916DLNZ or wet bolts # 126B2 which will work better than the regular bolts. Then use regular shackle straps # TRSL313.

  • Replacement Locking Hitch Pin for Thule Roadway Bike Rack
  • The correct locking hitch pin for the Thule Roadway # TH912XTR is the Thule Snug Tite Hitch Lock # THSTL2. This hitch pin is threaded to work on Thule hitch shanks and will work perfectly. I've also linked a review video of how this lock works for you to have a look at, as well.

  • Adding a Solar Panel to Charge a Trailer Breakaway Battery
  • Part # PTW2997 works great for charging your breakaway battery when the trailer is not in use. This product is easy to hook up and fairly inexpensive compared to the price of a new battery. I strongly recommend this product. We do not carry any breakaway kits that include a solar panel but adding this unit will keep your battery charged on the trailer while it is being stored. When you are going to tow, you can unhook the unit from the battery and it will be good to go while towing.

  • Availability of Flat Floor on Watersport Trailer for a 12.5 Flycraft Fly Fishing Raft
  • While there aren't any parts designed specifically to keep road debris from flying up under the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT (or any of our watersport trailers for that matter), this is a pretty bare-bones trailer so it wouldn't be difficult to add something like that at home. In regards to the 10" hitch height of your Winnebago Travato Class B camper van, that actually isn't a big deal. All you need is a ball mount with a 5" rise to match the 15" coupler height of this Malone...

  • Trailer Brake Recommendation for 2014 Coachmen Clipper 14 ft
  • Based on the information you provided I can almost guarantee you have 3,500 lbs axles, which means you'd want 3,500 lbs brakes like part # AKEBRK-35-SA (my personal recommendation) and grease seal # 58846. You can't hardly beat these brakes both value and ease of use. They are self-adjusting which means you won't have to worry about manually adjusting your brakes each year. I can also tell you that Coachmen used 3,500 lbs axles on many of their trailers. About 15% of your trailers GVWR...

  • What Mounting Hardware Do I Use for the etrailer Scissor Jacks e99012
  • There is not specific mounting hardware available for the etrailer Scissor Jacks with Handle # e99012 but you can source the Grade 5 bolts or self tapping screws needed at your local hardware store. You do need to use Grade 5 specifically if you're going to use the bolts or you could potentially risk shearing the mounting plates on these jacks.

  • Recommended Towing Mirror for 2012 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT
  • You can use the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors - Snap On - Driver and Passenger Side # KS80900, which are a great, pocketbook friendly option that just snap on to your existing mirrors to provide you with a mirror that will stay in place firmly and do a great job at giving you an extended view when towing. These snap on mirrors won't affect the functioning of your existing power mirrors. If you want to completely replace your mirrors the best option is the K-Source Custom Extendable...

  • Recommended 4 Bike Rack for Use on Front of Class C RV
  • I recommend using the Swagman XTC4 4-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches - Platform Style # S64665 because the platform will keep the bikes mostly out of your field of vision better than a hanging rack would. The XTC4 is rated for use on a Class C RV and I really like that this rack comes with locks for the bikes and to lock the rack to your hitch. I've linked a short review video of this rack but I think it's a great choice, and it will fit in any 2" hitch receiver.

  • Recommended Solution to Add 7 Way Trailer Wiring Harness to 2013 Toyota Highlander
  • In order to add a 7 way wiring harness to your 2013 Toyota Highlander you'll want to use the # ETBC7 (if your brake controller is wired) or the # ETBC7L (if you're using a wireless brake controller); the difference will be that with a wireless brake controller you won't need to run the brake controller output line into the cab of the vehicle. If you haven't already chosen a brake controller I do recommend going the wireless route because of the ease of installation; I recommend using the...
