Expert Answers about GMC Savana Van

• Towing Capacity of 2016 GMC Savana 2500 with 4.8 Liter
• I'd recommend verifying in the owners manual of your 2016 GMC Savana 2500 with a 4.8 liter engine but from what I could find it looks like you have a towing capacity of 8,100 lbs. Since towing with a van can be difficult to see behind you the towing mirrors I recommend a set of towing mirrors like the K-Source part # KS3891-2 which would work great on your van. I attached a review video for these mirrors for you to check out as well.

• Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2014 GMC Savana Cutaway Chassis
• The trailer hitches we have available for the 2014 GMC Savana Van are designed to fit the full size van model.

I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class IV - 2" # e98861 which is confirmed to fit your 2006 GMC Savana 3500 as long as it is not a cab and chassis model.

• Recommendations for a 7-way on a 2007 GMC Savana Van
• If your 2007 GMC Savana Van has a 7-way it should be either near the hitch underneath the rear of the vehicle or possibly if you open the rear doors it might be somewhere near the back, inside the vehicle. If your vehicle has the tow package it should have a 7-way. If you do not have the tow package you are going to need first a 4-way and then a 4-way to 7-way adapter. For a 4-way you would want a Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # 118392. Check out the installation instructions and...

• Recommended Hitch for 2005 GMC Savana Van Cutaway Chassis w/ Royal Utility Body
• The Buyer's Products Class IV hitch you had looked at, part # 3371801102 would be the correct fit for your 2005 GMC Savana Van Cutaway Chassis, but in order to make sure it'll be compatible with your Royal utility body, you'll need to make sure that you don't need a drop greater than 6-3/4 inches. To determine the drop needed, take a downward measurement from the bottom surface of the truck frame where the hitch would mount. Measure downward distance between the frame member and the lowest...

• 2022 GMC Savana Cargo Van Awning Option
• I have an option for you, but unfortunately we do not have an option that uses the gutter to mount. The only awnings we have that will work will either require a roof rack or direct mount (which will require drilling). We do not currently have any roof racks for the 2022 GMC Savana. For a direct mount awning we have the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490018. This would install directly to the vans sidewall and you would need the Vehicle Mounting Bracket Kit # TH1500602390 to complete the installatio...

• Hitch Recommendation for 2006 GMC Savana Van with a Knapheide Body
• The Curt # C15320 that you referenced should fit your 2006 GMC Savana with a Knapheide Body if your mounting holes have a 40 inch center. Although the outside measurement is relevant, the more important measurement is the mounting hole center to mounting hole center which is a standard 40 inches. Providing you do have a 40 inch center, the Draw-Tite # 75189 will also fit. Your step bumper is going to be the deciding factor when trying to pick out a hitch for your truck. If your step...

• What Does Low Voltage Error on Curt Echo Mobile Brake Controller Indicate
• If the app is telling you "low voltage" that means that the vehicle battery (what the controller draws it's power from) has low voltage. That would indicate that the battery is possibly bad and can't hold a charge or your alternator is not able to charge the battery. The Echo # C51180 does not have an internal battery so that would not be the issue. You can usually take vehicles to a local car parts store and they can test the charging system to determine where the issue is.

• Hitch Recommendation for a 2012 GMC Savana Extended
• Yes, the frames of the vehicles are the same at the rear of a 2012 GMC Savana Van standard and extended length so the Class IV hitches like the part # 14090 would fit just fine. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

• Universal Fit Trailer Towing Mirror Recommendation for a GMC Savana 1500 Van
• For a universal fit towing mirror, we have several options. There are basically two categories. First are the type that attach to your existing mirrors. The benefit of these mirrors is that they are easily adjustable, smaller so they are easier to stow, and since they attach to your existing mirrors their positioning does not seem foreign. In this category, I would recommend the Universal Strap-On Towing Mirror (Each), # 7070. I have included a link to a video review of these mirrors below. The...

• 4-Way Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 1998 GMC Savana
• Is there any trailer wiring at the rear of your vehicle?

This harness is a fit for your 1998 GMC Savana and will work well for you. The great thing about this harness is that even if your vehicle did have the factory 4-way this would still fit your vehicle and work perfectly fine.

• Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and 4-Way on 2011 GMC Savana Van
• To have both a 4-way and 7-way on your 2011 GMC Savana Van you'd need a 4-way kit first with the part # 118392 and then to convert it to a 7-way you'd want the part # 37185 which also has a 4-way on the side of it. If your trailer has brakes you'd instead need to use the adapter kit part # ETBC7 and install a brake controller like the Brake EVN # TK63VR.

• Adapter to Go From a 7-Way Socket on 2014 GMC Savana to Trailers with 4- and 5-Way Flat Plugs
• There are 2 types of 7-Way vehicle side sockets, both are round, but the difference is the pins. You likely have a blade style 7-Way connector on your 2014 GMC Savana and for a 4- and 5-Way adapter you can use # A75TB. If your 7-Way has round pins and not blade style pins then we have adapter # 47405 which is a 7-Way round pin to 4-Way adapter. There isn't a 5-Way option if the vehicle has a round pin design. I have included a picture showing the different vehicle side 7-Ways for you.
