  • Roof Rack Recommendations For 2018 Chevy Equinox With Naked Roof
  • I have a solution for you, but we do not have the replacement factory side rails for the roof of your 2018 Chevy Equinox. It sounds like your roof is bare without any rails, in which case I recommend just adding the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # RR53TR. This is an aerodynamic and low-profile roof rack that simply attaches to the door jams on your Equinox and you do not need rails for this. I highly recommend going this route due to ease of installation and use. Another option,...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2020 Chevy Equinox
  • For a base plate kit for your 2020 Chevy Equinox we have the Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-523193-5 which is a confirmed fit. I also attached an install video for you to check out as well. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle.

  • Hitch Bike Rack Recommendation For Downhill Bikes w/ 2.7 and 3 Inch Wide Tires
  • I contacted our representative at Swagman about the XTC4 Hitch Bike Rack, part # S64665. This bike rack will work for your downhill bikes with 2.7 and 3 inch wide tires. The XTC4 would work great for carrying the downhill bikes. It includes a cable lock and hitch pin lock. One advantage I think the XTC4 has is the wheel hoops do not have a tray which may be nice if you will be tracking mud on your bike tires. The XTC4 has a distance of 12-3/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin to...

The diode kit that comes with this allows you to splice into the taillight wiring so...

  • Recommended Ride Enhancement for 2018 Thor ACE 27.2
  • The Roadmaster Polyurethane Bushing Kit for 1-5/8" Diameter, Factory Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-4139-127 will be the best first step in assisting in control since the rear already has assistance. The second step would be to add a Steering Stabilizer # RM-RBK22-RSSA. These will greatly increase the handling of your Motorhome. The Suspension Enhancement # SSF-170-40-2 would be the third step. You shouldn't need to replace factory shocks after just 10K miles, so I would do this order and...

  • Can Trailer Wiring of 2022 Chevy Equinox Work as Tow Bar Wiring
  • Trailer wiring can not be used as tow bar wiring as the converter does not allow the wiring to basically work in reverse. I wish it was the simple and convenient but tow bar wiring will have to be totally different from trailer wiring. What you'd want is a kit like the Roadmaster # RM-152-98146-7 which uses diodes to connect to your 2022 Chevy Equinox. I attached an install video for this kit on a similar 21' Equinox for you to check out as well.

  • Running Battery Lead Wire for Tekonsha Trailer Wiring that Fits 2020 Chevy Equinox
  • When we've installed the Tekonsha trailer wiring kit that fits your 2020 Equinox part # 118750 we always ran the power wire up to the battery underneath it since that's an easier solution and when done properly is just as reliable/safe as running it through the interior. Other benefits is that it didn't require finding or drilling a hole in the firewall of the vehicle. I attached an install video that covers exactly the route we took with the wire on a 2019 Equinox just like yours. The...

  • Rhino Rack Roof Rack and Cargo Box Recommendation for a 2013 Chevy Equinox with Naked Roof
  • Yes, the Rhino Rack roof rack that you referenced that consists of part numbers # RRVA118B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK226 has been confirmed to fit the naked roof of your 2013 Chevy Equinox. For an economically priced cargo box that would fit this rack I would recommend the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box # SR7018. I attached a review video for you to check out as well. This box is weatherproof meaning that it will protect your cargo from rain, but in order for something to be considered waterproof...

  • Which Safety Cables for Use with Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar Towing 2020 Chevy Equinox
  • Picking out safety cables for a tow bar setup is more about the length of the tow bar since they are designed to span the distance between the tow vehicle and the towed vehicle. That said, the # RM-643 would work great with your Falcon 2 tow bar part # RM-520. If you have the Falcon 2 and the base plate kit part # RM-523193-5 you would not need additional pins to make that connection.

  • Recommended Flat Tow Wiring Harness for 2019 Equinox Premier
  • The Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - LED Bulb and Socket - Red # RM-152-LED excludes the premier model. The bulb and socket kits are not recommended for your vehicle because there simply isn't room in that particular assembly for the 1 inch hole required according to my tech contact at Roadmaster. Instead I recommend the diode kit # RM-154 or Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 which is my preference and will allow you to add the charge...
