Expert Answers about Honda Ridgeline


  • Cold Air Intake Recommendation for a 2008 Honda Ridgeline
  • If you drive your 2008 Honda Ridgeline mostly on paved roads, I would recommend going with the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with Oil-Based Filter, # AR530-202. With the oil-type filter, it is recommended to clean and re-oil every 25,000 to 30,000 miles. Oiled filters allow for the greatest amount of airflow. If you drive on paved and semi-dusty roads, then I recommend going with the Airaid Cold Air Intake System with Dry Filter, # AR531-202. The dry filter has the same maintenance schedule...

  • What Type of Socket Should be Used to Install Wheels of Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer
  • There is limited clearance between the wheel and the lug nuts so you'll want to use a thin walled 21 mm socket to mount the wheels that come with the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129. I wouldn't get too hung up on brand but just make sure it's a thin wall socket and you'll be totally fine. These are easily found at auto parts stores.

  • Which 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness Fits 2014 Honda Ridgeline
  • The reason you are having a hard time installing the Curt 7-way C56366 on your 2014 Honda Ridgeline is that it was designed to fit newer versions of the Ridgeline but not your 2014 model. Instead the correct 7-way harness you need is the # 118253 which comes with the correct converter box, harnesses, and relays. I attached an install video for this harness on a similar Ridgeline which will walk you through the entire process.

  • Recommended Snow Chains for Front Tires of 2006 Honda Ridgeline
  • Your owner's manual recommends using snow chains/tire chains and suggests a specific chain company but they can't require that by law. The chains recommended are simply class s chains which provide a lower profile so your clearances are not as impacted but the quality of chain isn't as good as what I recommend. You are correct that the inner clearances are the most important to prevent contact and any damage so the class S (low profile) chains what you need. You will want to note the...

  • Parts Needed to Install a 7-Way and Brake Controller on a 2014 Honda Ridgeline
  • First, consumers of aftermarket products are protected by the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. The Act states that if something breaks on your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless whatever modifications you have added to your vehicle actually caused the probĀ­lem in question. Installing a 7-Way is going to require hardwiring. What you could do is ask the dealer to install it and I am sure they would have no problem charging you...

  • Will the BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK26601 Limit Trunk Access on a 2014 Honda Ridgeline
  • If the BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK26601 was installed on your 2014 Honda Ridgeline and it was folded back you would have no interference with it and your trunk. If the G2 cover was folded down the door would open basically as tall as the distance from the truck bed to the top of the bed rails of your vehicle. The trunk wouldn't open all the way, but it would open far enough to give you access to what you have in your trunk. If you needed more access you would just need to fold...

  • Tonneau Cover Recommendation 2017 Honda Ridgeline that Allows Trunk to Open Fully

Since there's no rails installed to the inside of the bed rails the trunk can open fully.

  • Could Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution Be Used on Travel- Lite Falcon F-20
  • I looked up the Travel-Lite Falcon F-20 and it has a dry tongue weight of 260 lbs. The way to pick out a weight distribution is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the trailer including any weight behind the rear axle from cargo in this figure. So the Reese Steadi-Flex kit part # RP66558 would most likely work great for you as it has a tongue weight range of 400-600 lbs but you do need to determine what your tongue weight will be loaded first. For a 2 inch ball you'd then want...

  • Weight Distribution for 2007 Honda Ridgeline and 3200 Pound Rockwood Freedom 2318G
  • If my calculations are correct or at least close then if the trailer is loaded to the maximum of 3,260 pounds and the tongue weight is roughly 11 percent of the gross trailer weight then at the max trailer weight the tongue weight would be around 570 pounds after adding in 200 pounds loaded behind the rear wheels of your 2007 Honda Ridgeline. So basically the tongue weight range is 263 to 570 pounds depending on if it and the vehicle are loaded or not. If the trailer is not loaded to the...

  • How To Install Yakima LockNLoad Over Truck Bed with Tonneau Cover
  • In order to install the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Roof Tray above a tonneau cover on a truck bed you will need to install a set of tracks alongside the bed rails along with a crossbar system. The crossbar system is needed because the tray is not wide enough to reach just the mounting feet on the tracks. I have attached the needed parts below: Yakima JetStream Crossbars part # Y00427 Yakima Tracks for Roof Racks part # Y01135 Landing Pad Yakima Control Towers part # Y00221 (2) SkyLine Towers...

  • Which Pop and Lock Tailgate Lock Fits 2017 Honda Ridgeline with OEM Locking Tailgate
  • The Pop and Lock Tailgate lock part # PAL8600 that you referenced only fits the tailgate handles of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline that didn't have the factory lock setup. So since you have the factory locking tailgate now you'd have to go with the # PL8675 which would replace your current handle.

  • Is Weight Distribution Needed for Towing a Rockwood Hard Side Pop-Up Camper
  • The first thing I would recommend is checking the owner's manual of your 2014 Honda Ridgeline Sport to see what it says about using a weight distribution hitch. In general, a WDH is recommended if your trailer weight is more than 50% of your vehicle's GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) or if you are experiencing rear sag and trailer sway. It looks like the curb weight of your Ridgeline is the 4,491 lbs you looked at, and the GVWR is 6,050 lbs. The dry weight for your camper is the completely...

  • For your 2020 Honda Ridgeline we do have only universal type fit tow mirrors available like the set you referenced which will fit, but if you wanted my recommendation as your best fit I would go with the K-Source tow mirrors part # KS69ZR which install in a more secure way and provide a more stable viewing angle behind you.
