Expert Answers about Hitch Fabrication Parts


  • Hitch Fabrication Bar That Can be Welded for 2004 Dodge Ram
  • We do have weldable trailer hitch receivers for your 2004 Dodge Ram. The longest one is going to be 48 inches, and you can use either the Tow Ready Combo Bar with 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # 80948 or Curt Combo Bar with 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # C49480. These hitches do not have any specific weight ratings because ratings are dependent on the entire fabrication and install. I have added links to video reviews for you to take a look at of both hitches.

  • Is There A Custom Gooseneck Hitch Available For A 2022 Toyota Tundra?
  • Right now there isn't a custom gooseneck hitch available for your 2022 Toyota Tundra, however the Curt Gooseneck Flat Plate # C65500 which is a universal kit. However, you'll need to fabricate and weld a 1/2" steel plate to the frame of the vehicle, and then bolt # C65500 to that, so this option would require some fabrication. This hitch is rated for a maximum towing capacity of 30,000lbs using the 2-5/16" ball.

  • Recommended 2 Inch Receiver to Fabricate Receiver for Bike Rack on Off-Grid Trailer
  • It sounds like maybe you need something like the Curt Weld-On 2" Receiver for Custom Fabricated Hitches # E17, which could be welded to the tube you're referring to and would give you a secondary 2" receiver. This receiver does have a 500-lbs tongue weight, but it should be noted that any time you extend a receiver away from the cross tube more than 9" that the tongue weight is reduced by approximately 50%. I've linked a review video of this part for you to check out.

  • Recommended Solution for Adding Gooseneck Hitch to 2001 Ford F-550 Cab and Chassis
  • I have a solution for you, but there is not a custom fit gooseneck available for the 2001 Ford F-550 cab and chassis, so anything you choose will need to be custom fabricated and installed by a certified welder. I'll also say that I don't know how a fiberglass truck bed is going to hold up for this type of application, so you will want to be careful that nothing is attached to the truck bed so that you can avoid damaging it. That said, you could likely use the Curt Gooseneck Flat Plate...

  • Parts Needed For Towing a Car Hauler Trailer With a 2010 Lexus GX 460 Without Factory Tow Package
  • Since the aftermarket receivers like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e46YR are only rated for up to 5,000lbs towing capacity for your 2010 Lexus GX 460 you will need to have a custom receiver fabricated. You should be able to use this receiver but will want to find a fabrication shop that will do the work for the receiver to determine exactly what is needed. Often times the factory tow package will include a transmission cooler. As there is not an aftermarket option you can verify...

  • Recommended Solution to Add Gooseneck Hitch to 2008 Chevy Silverado 3500 Flat Bed
  • I have a solution for you, but there is not an application designed to install a gooseneck specifically for your 2008 Chevy Silverado 3500 flat bed so you will need to do some fabrication. I recommend using the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Flatbed Trucks - 30,000 lbs # BWGNRK1500 and then having the brackets fabricated and welded to your vehicle's frame by a certified welder. This would be the best available solution for your flat bed truck.

  • Can I Reuse the Metal Portion of my Awning with the New Slide Topper?
  • The Solera Slide-Topper, part # LCV000163301, does not require the use of the metal weather guards, but since you have them already, It would not hurt to keep them installed to help further the life of the new fabric. The channel of the awning rail is about 3/8 inch wide to hold onto the fabric for comparison to your weather guards.

  • Kit Needed to Upgrade A&E Manual Awning to Powered Awning on Travel Trailer
  • To upgrade your A&E awning you can either use the 12V Solera Conversion Kit, White # LC434724 or Black # LC434723, OR the 18V Solera Conversion Kit, White # LC434730 or Black # LC434729. Both options use electricity to extend and retract the awning, but they also include manual overrides so that you can do it by hand in the event of a power failure. The 12V kits connect directly to the 12V power of your RV while the 18V version uses it's own (rechargeable) battery so it's a little easier...

  • Custom Mounting Brackets To Secure 6-Pin and Breakaway Switch On a 2018 Ford Expedition
  • The brackets were custom fabricated in our shop for mounting the 6-Pin Connector # PK11608 and breakaway switch. This can be better seen in the video for the Demco SBS Second Vehicle Kit # SM99209 installed on the same 2018 Ford Expedition. I have linked the install video below along with the video for the Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 you found. We do not manufacture these and they will need to be fabricated either by the shop installing them or by yourself.
