  • Parts Needed to Install Brake Controller in 2012 Pleasureway Excel
  • We can help you hardwire in trailer wiring and a brake controller to your 2012 Pleasureway Excel on a E-350 chassis but if you are wanting something that plugs into factory wiring only Pleasureway would have info on that. You'd have to install a 4-way first with the part # HM48925 and then convert to a 7-way with the part # ETBC7 so that you could install a brake controller like the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 that you mentioned or the current Tekonsha controller you have.

  • Recommended Parts for 2004 Ford E250 5.4 V8 Towing Trailer
  • You have the basics covered with the brake controller and tow mirrors but I would also recommend a transmission cooler like part # D13503 with the adapter part # D13024 and # D13014. This is going to do a great job prolonging the life of your transmission as heat is the number one killer of them and towing creates quite a bit of heat. Then to install the Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR you'd just need the install harness part # RED87FR and for tow mirrors the custom install set # CTM2500...

  • Recommended Superspring SumoSprings For 2007 E450 Class C Motorhome RV
  • The only front mounted hitch confirmed to fit your 2007 E450 Cutaway motorhome is the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 65001. This hitch has a maximum 500 lb vertical load. For a motorcycle carrier, I recommend the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier w/ Ramp for 2" Hitch - 76" Long - Steel - 500 lbs # e98873 which weighs about 58 lbs leaving you a capacity of 442 lbs for your motorcycle. The Ultra-Fab # UF48-979033 would also work, weighing in at 51 pounds. For...

  • Complete Disk Surge Brake Setup Recommendation for a Rogue Tandem Axle Boat Trailer
  • We have everything you need, just not in one kit. For a disk brake kit that will bolt up to your 4 bolt brake flanges and will slip over your 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern you would want the part # K2R35D for a dacromet finish. Or if your trailer will see salt water I would recommend the stainless steel kit part # K2R35S. You will need a quantity of two of these kits for both axles. For a brake line kit you will need the part # DM5425. And then for a surge brake actuator you would want...

  • Recommendation For Hitch, Brake Controller, and Wiring For 1995 Ford E-350 Towing a Tractor
  • For a 1995 Ford E-350 Van I would recommend the Draw-Tite Class IV 2 Inch Hitch, part # 41906. It has a maximum gross trailer weight capacity of 10,000 lbs and a maximum tongue weight capacity of 1,000 lbs. I am including links to the installation instructions and a video of the hitch being installed on a 2003 Ford E-350 Van. For towing, I would recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit, # EBMK2216. It comes with a ball mount, a 2 inch ball and a 2-5/16 inch ball, a hitch pin and clip, and...

  • Anti-Sway Bars for a 2006 Jayco Greyhawk RV on Ford E-450 Chassis
  • Anti-sway bars will be a big help at keeping your RV much more stable, even when towing the Jeep behind it. It does make sense that towing something behind the RV would enhance the sway you are getting since the Jeep is not moving under its own power and is similar to a trailer in that regard. For your RV, built on the Ford E-450 chassis, you can use the rear anti-sway bar item # RM-1139-147. And for the front use # RM-1139-115 for an upgraded anti-sway bar. What I usually recommend is...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendations for a 2011 Ford E-350 Van with a Rounded Bumper
  • The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75703, will fit the 2011 Ford E-250 as long as it is not a Superwagon. The rounded bumper should not pose a problem. A step bumper would necessitate a ball mount longer than the recommended # AMSC2 which is 8-1/2 inches long. Part # BM20 would be a good fit. If you so have a Superwagon model, you would need Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 75703. Again a longer ball mount would be needed with a step bumper. It is possible that you will have to drill a few holes...

  • SumoSprings Suspension Enhancement Kit for 2012 Ford E-350 Towing 6,000 lb Trailer
  • The SumoSprings kit I recommend for your 2012 Ford E-350 passenger van towing a 6,000 lb trailer is the part # SSR-130-47 as it provides 1,500 lbs of additional suspension support which will be a solid amount of support without making the ride quality too harsh. The kit you mentioned actually is for versions of your van that were made into an RV though so it would not fit. There is a higher rated kit part # SSR-130-54 but I would only recommend this for your if you were towing very near...

  • Recommended Cargo Mat for 2012 Ford E-350 EXT Van
  • There are two floor mat options for a 2012 Ford E-350 EXT Van. There's the VanTred Custom Floor Mat for Cargo Vans part # VTRF92X which is thermoplastic and 1/2" thick and the VanRug Custom Floor Mat for Cargo Vans part # VRF92X which is carpet and 3/4" thick. The thermoplastic is more for work applications so it really comes down to use.

  • Finding Installer for Redarc Tow Pro Elite Brake Controller
  • In general no we do not give out recommendations or have approved installers. Best option is to find a local mechanic to you with a solid reputation and they'd easily be able to install the Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR that you referenced since this is relatively much easier than the work they do on vehicles regularly.

  • 2007 Class C Motorhome Ford Chassis Being Pushed Around With Sway Bars, Track Bar, and Steering Stab
  • The short wheel base and large size of the RV body make it impossible to eliminate all of that pushed around feeling you are getting. I recommend going with the SumoSprings. Front # SSF-106-47 and Rear # SSR-106-54-1. These will offer you more stability than the shocks will offer.

  • Replacement Gearbox For Older Kwikee Steps On 2006 Jayco Class C Motorhome
  • I have a solution for you, but based on the motor you purchased for your Kwikee Steps # LC379608 I was able to determine that your steps are the pre 2006 version and a replacement gear box is not made any longer. What you will need to do is use the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379145 which will replace your motor and gear box with the new design and get your steps back into perfect working order. The # LC379608 will not work with the new gear box, but you can likely...

  • 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness for 1997 Ford E350
  • I have an easy way to install a 4-way on your 1997 Ford E-350 with the Tekonsha harness part # 118344 but we don't have a way to use the factory connector that you have right now. The Tekonsha harness installs by plugging inline with the taillight connectors to provide a 4-way connector.

  • Heaviest Duty Trailer Hitch Recevier for Motorhome on 1999 Ford E-350 Super Duty Chassis
  • We have the exact hitch you need for your motorhome on a 1999 Ford E-350 Super Duty chassis, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 14053. This has the 10,000 lb towing capacity and 1,000 lb tongue weight capacity you wanted (the most available), and it does not have to be welded on. The installation will require you to drill small holes in the frame (all hitches that fit your motorhome will) and this will let you bolt the hitch right on. I have added a link to a video review and the installation...

  • How Can I Secure my Bike and Rack When Using the Kuat Transfer TS02G
  • The Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Platform Rack TS02G is an excellent rack and by adding the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Rack part # PTSCLK12 you have the ability to secure the rack to your vehicle and your bike to the rack. This is as good of a security system as you will find on any bike rack. This works as a great preventative measure to keep your bike safe. If a theif really wants your bike though there are no 100% secure methods available short of taking them inside...

  • Tow Ready Tail Light Wiring Harness Recommendation for a 2010 Ford E-350 Van
  • The recommended wiring kit for your 2010 Ford E-350 XLT would be the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118551. This is the correct wiring kit for your vehicle and it has been tested to work so you should have no problem with it. The Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Wiring Kit # 119250KIT that you referenced would not be the correct kit for your vehicle. This kit is designed to be used on vehicles with separate tail light circuits. By that I mean the vehicle would have a separate bulb for the...
