  • Solution 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 with Integrated Brake Controller and Electric Over Hydraulic Brake
  • What we've found is that the factory brake controllers don't work as consistently with electric over hydraulic brakes like the Hydrastar part # HBA16 that you have even when they are supposed to. Some setups work totally fine, others are intermittent, and other not at all. The adapter part # HBA-CAM would take care of the issue but I'd rather you go with a P3 brake controller part # 90195 as it's 100 percent reliable with EOH brakes and there would be no risk of them not working reliably....

  • Recommended Blue Ox Weight Distribution for Use With a 7,000 lb Trailer
  • Whenever you are looking into buying a Weight Distribution (WD) system, you will first want to figure out what the Total Tongue Weight (TTW) of your setup is. You can find your TTW by measuring the Tongue Weight (TW) of your fully loaded and ready-to-go trailer, plus the weight of any cargo behind the read axle of your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500. Keep in mind that the TW of your trailer should be 10-15 percent of your Gross Trailer Weight (GTW). You can use the Sherline Trailer Tongue Weight...

  • Replacement Round LED Light for 2018 Elkridge E361 Trailer
  • I wasn't able to track down the exact model LED light that comes installed on the 2018 Elkridge E361 Trailer but based on my research they look to be pretty similar to the Gustafson RV LED Puck Light # 277-000488. This particular unit features the push button right on the center of the light and it measures 3-5/8" in diameter. If you measure your existing light and come up with a different dimension we also have this same light in a 4-3/8" # 277-000489, and 5" # 277-000341 diameter. I...

  • Best Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Options for 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 With Factory 5th Wheel Puck System
  • Happy to help and let's start with the hitch; since you have a standard bed (also called short bed) on your 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 you will need a sliding 5th wheel hitch. The reason for that is simply turning radius - there is less room on short beds for the trailer to maneuver when you are making sharp turns, and what winds up happening is the trailer will crash into the cab of truck. A sliding hitch essentially moves the trailer further away from the cab, so you can make tighter turns...

  • 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch or Gooseneck Adapter for a 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 with Factory Prep Package
  • First the best hitch for towing any given trailer is going to be the matching hitch type. So in other words for a 5th wheel trailer use a 5th wheel hitch. For a gooseneck trailer use a gooseneck hitch. Since you want to tow a 5th wheel trailer I recommend a 5th wheel hitch. Since your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 has the factory prep package I recommend the Curt Q20 5th wheel hitch # C16530-16025 which will fit directly into the prep package. I have linked a video review for you. Right now,...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 WT Work Truck
  • The best option I have for a 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 WT (Work Truck) is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C15460. The issue with the WT (Work Truck) models is that none of the aftermarket trailer hitch manufactures such as Curt or Draw-Tite offer confirmed fits for this model as there is no way of testing them with each utility body out there. However, the attachment points on the frame should be the same and the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver has been used on WT (Work Truck) models in the...

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 with Factory Rail Kit
  • Congratulations on the new truck! For your 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 long bed that's equipped with the factory rail kit I highly recommend the Curt A25 5th Wheel Hitch # C24FR. This unit is going to drop right into those existing pucks in the bed and its interlocking jaw system will provide an extremely secure connection with the trailer and a smooth, quiet ride during travel. I also really like the unique 3-point indicator system that lets you easily see when the hitch is ready to couple,...

  • Best Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 with OEM Puck System
  • The B&W Companion Slider # BWRVK3775 is really hard to argue with as being the best sliding 5th wheel hitch for your 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 with the puck system. Not only is it a great hitch when it comes to quality, but it also has the mounting pieces built right into the base piece so you won't need an adapter like you do with practically every other sliding hitch that fits your pickup. When you couple that with the cushioning system, dual 1" thick locking jaws, and cam-action handle that...

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch in a 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 with Factory Prep Package
  • From my research the maximum towing capacity for the 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 is 14,500 pounds. It would be best to verify this with GM though. If you find that the truck can handle the fifth wheel trailer, or you're going to keep the trailer's loaded weight under the truck's capabilities the hitch I recommend is the Curt A16 # C16521. It fits into the factory prep package in the truck using # C16023 and is a sliding hitch that will help with clearance when executing tight turns. It's...

  • Towing Mirror Recommendation for a 2015 GMC Sierra 2500
  • For a set of slip-on mirrors that will fit your customer's 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 which will give him a wider viewing angle he would want the CIPA part # CM10950 which is confirmed as a fit. I attached a review video for you to check out as well. For a set of full-replacement towing mirrors you would instead want the part # KS62135-36G. Since he already has extendable mirrors these wouldn't give as much additional viewing angle as the CIPA mirrors. The combined factory extendable towing...

  • Will SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs On 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 Allow Some Suspension Sag?
  • While I do not have the exact a measurement of the exact amount of sag you will get when attaching your 5th wheel trailer with 1600lbs pin weight to your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500, the SumoSprings # SSR-203-40-2 will allow some suspension sag before fully engaging. This is due to the springs being progressive meaning the more they are compressed the stiffer they become. They do this that way the first bit of the spring is pretty soft so when you hit a bump with your truck unloaded it compresses...

  • Air Bag Kit for 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 Towing Fifth Wheel
  • For your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 towing a fifth wheel trailer the air bag kit you'd want is the Firestone # F2613 which we have found is our most reliable and best built kit for your truck. For a compressor kit then the heavy duty part # F2097 will work great to make inflating the bags and maintaining them easier. The compressor will inflate faster than standard compressors and the gauge inside the vehicle will allow you to monitor and inflate them from inside the vehicle.

  • Powered Trailer Jack Solution for Trailer with Low Tailgate Clearance
  • Since none of our powered A-frame jacks are going to be short enough for what you said you'd need you'd have to use a side mount trailer jack like the Fulton part # F141401 which has a lifting capacity of 2,500 lbs. I know you said you wanted at least a 3,000 lb capacity but I wanted to clarify that the lifting capacity of the jack is relative to the tongue weight of the trailer and not the overall weight of it which is easy to confuse.
