Expert Answers about GMC Van


  • Brake Controller and 7-Way Recommendation for 1965 GMC Van
  • You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one) on your 1965 GMC Van. For that you would want the # 119250KIT. From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This...

  • Higher Capacity Trailer Hitch for 1993 GMC Van 2500
  • A Class V (5) hitch has a higher towing capacity than a Class IV (4) as the higher the Class the higher the capacities basically. For your 1993 GMC Van the highest hitch Class we offer is a III like the # C31016 which has a 6,000 lb trailer towing capacity and a 600 lb tongue weight capacity.

  • Hitch Recommendation for a 1993 GMC P30 Step Van
  • For your 1993 GMC P30 step van you are going to want a multi-fit hitch as there are no custom fit hitches confirmed to fit your vehicle. I would recommend the Curt Hitch part # 13703. This hitch can fit vehicle frames that are between 22 and 72 inches. As long as the width of your frame fits within that range this hitch would work well for you. For ball mounts I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag.

  • How to Determine How Well Bike Rack Bunk # CC-275 Would Fit Air Stream Trailer
  • I attached a picture that shows the frame dimensions that the Bike Bunk part # CC-275 is designed to fit for you to check out and compare to your 1972 Argosy Airstream. As far as overall height goes this will add 33-1/2 inches direcly above the top of your frame rails on your trailer. So basically, you'd need to find the spot on your trailer frame that fits the range you want to use in the attached picture and measure 33-1/2 inches above that to determine if the window of your trailer would...

  • Installing Trailer Hitch on 1995 GMC Conversion Van with Aftermarket Bumper
  • The custom trailer hitches we have available for your 1995 GMC G20 Van, such as the Curt Class III # C13016 that you were looking at, do indeed feature pre-drilled holes that are designed to line up to existing holes in the van's frame rails and bumper. If your van doesn't have the existing bumper bolts and nuts that are used to secure the front of the hitch you will need to drill into it (and obtain the necessary hardware) to make this connection. I really can't recommend passing this...

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 1981 GMC RV G3500
  • Since we know your 1981 GMC Van is a G3500 we know the Timbren kit part # TGMRG35 is a confirmed fit that won't require any measuring or fabrication to install. The kit will fit as-is and works very similarly to how the SumoSprings kit works so you'd get the same amount of support.

  • Trailer Hitch Option for 1991 GMC P30
  • For an RV application the # 41990-16 is an option as this is a great multi-fit hitch typically used for service body trucks. Since we know that the P30 chassis has 34 inches between the frame rails this hitch should fit just fine since it has 16 inch drop brackets that can weld anywhere on the 44 inch wide crossbeam of the hitch. If you needed a hitch with less drop in the mounting brackets the part # 41990-07 has a bracket height of 7 inches instead.

  • Parts Needed To Install Trailer Brake Controller On a 1989 GMC P3500
  • In order to install an electric brake controller on a 1989 GMC P3500 you will first need to start with an install kit as there are no wires present for this application. For this, I recommend the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller part # ETBC7 along with the Upgraded Circuit Protected Tail Light Converter Hardwire Kit part # 119178KIT. Then, you can install any electric brake controller such as the Trailer Brake Controller part # TK63VR with the Brake Control Plug-In...
