Expert Answers about Land Rover


  • Will a Trailer Hitch Affect the Install of a Brake Controller on a 2018 Land Rover Discovery HSE
  • The installation of a trailer hitch on the 2018 Land Rover Discovery HSE will not have any impact on the installation of a brake controller so no worries there! I would recommend an aftermarket hitch but there does not appear to be one for that vehicle, which seems odd. If it turns out that they cannot install an in cab brake controller we do have the new Autowbrake # 3430001 which installs just on the trailer and only needs a functioning 7-Way trailer connector to operate. I have linked...

  • Can Weight Distribution be Used on 2016 Land Rover LR4
  • The hitches we offer for your 2016 Land Rover LR4 are rated for use with weight distribution like the Curt part # 13456. It's capacities with a WD system jump from 6,000/600 lbs to 8,000/800 lbs. For a system that would work well with those capacities we have the Strait Line part # RP66083 which has a tongue weight range of 400-800 lbs and features only sway control that works to fight sway before it starts.

  • Recommendation between Curt and Draw-Tite Hitches for 2018 Range Rover Sport
  • Both the Draw Tite hitch part # 75229 and the Curt part # C13243 are really solid options for your 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport and they're both really similar in design but the one difference they have is the brackets toward the front of the vehicle. I slightly like the way the Curt is designed better as it looks like it would carry more weight but even then the Draw Tite is still really solid. So if I were in your shoes I'd buy the Curt. For trailer wiring then you'd want the 4-way...

  • We have just what you need to increase the loudness of the exhaust of your 2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. For that you'll want the Magnaflow CatBack system part # MF15579 which will make the exhaust noticeably louder but won't be so loud that it's unpleasant to drive the vehicle. It also will give you an increase in horsepower and torque too.

  • How to Install a Brake Controller on a Vehicle that has a Factory 4-Way
  • The best way to install a brake controller like the Prodigy P2 part # 90885 on a vehicle like your 2001 Mercedes 320 that has a factory 4-way is to use the # ETBC7 that you purchased as well and install it according to the installation instructions by hardwiring everything. For your vehicle there isn't a simple plug-in adapter available so using the # ETBC7 would be your best option. I attached the installation instructions to the right plus an install video for you to check out.

  • Do Thule XG12 Tire Chains Fit Tire Size 255/55-19
  • Yes, the Thule Tire Chains XG12 part # TH2004705265 that you referenced are a confirmed fit for the tire size 255/55-19 that you have on your 2008 Land Rover LR3. You will still want to check the owners manual of your vehicle for any tire chain restrictions.

  • Carrying Bikes and Towing a Trailer at the Same Time with a 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  • I do have a solution for you but there are no trunk mount bike racks listed as a fit for the 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. What I recommend is to use multipurpose ball mount # D210. It will allow you to carry a hitch mount bike rack and tow the trailer at the same time. If you can tell me how many bikes you need to carry I can make a bike rack recommendation. Or another option is to use a towing bike rack. There are several towing bike racks available and I have included a link to...

  • Recommended Extra-Long Ball Mount For 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport
  • We have several extended ball mounts that will work for your Range Rover Sport. The ball mounts have various rise or drop features, so you will want to know just how much of a drop or rise you need. You can check out the attached helpful article that explains how to choose a ball mount that works for you. If you do not need a lot of rise or drop, I recommend a ball mount like part # BH20. This ball mount has a 2 inch drop or 3/4 inch rise and is 13-1/4 inches long from the center of the...

  • How to Determine if Kuat NV Bike Rack is Going to Clear Rear Bumper of Vehicle Folded Up
  • As long as you have 7 inches from the center of the hitch pin on your 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport to the outside edge of your rear bumper the Kuat NV # NV22G would fit and have clearance to fold up. Judging by what install pictures look like for the hitches for your vehicle like the Curt # C13243 I don't think you'd have an issue, but since I don't know what hitch you have your best option will be to measure to find out for sure.

  • Recommendation For Hitch For 2012 Land Rover LR2
  • For a great fit for your 2012 Land Rover LR2, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Round Tube Receiver Hitch, Item # 75688. It does not require drilling and bolts onto your frame. For trailer wiring, I recommend the Kit, Item # C59496, which is confirmed as a fit. If you need a bracket for the hitch wiring, I recommend Item # 18144. If you need a hitch ball mount and hitch balls for towing a trailer, I recommend the Etrailer ball mount kit, Item # 989900. It includes 2 ball...

  • Recommended Brake Controller for 2017 Land Rover Discovery
  • Your 2017 Land Rover Discovery can have a brake controller added, but there is not a custom wiring harness. This simply means you will hardwire a brake controller like # C74VV you asked about. I am not a fan of this particular controller you have asked about, so I recommend you go with a proportional controller like the Prodigy P3 # 90195 or a more cost efficient option like # TK90160. The difference is the proportional controllers have an integrated sensor so they determine deceleration...

These options have an astonishing 34 cubic feet of cargo space. As you can see in the pictures of these products they are quite large. If you don't need quite as much room as the GearSpace offers then I recommend taking a look...

  • Are Snow Chains Required on All 4 Wheels of Vehicle
  • Ideally you run snow chains on all four wheels of your vehicle. If you only decide to run a single pair on an all wheel drive vehicle you need to use the primary drive wheels. What you would need to do is check the owners manual of your 2012 Range Rover to find out what recommendations/restrictions are listed for your vehicle.

  • Recommended Hitch Extender and Anti-Rattle Compatible with Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack
  • The Thule EasyFold XT 2 E-Bike Platform Rack # TH903202 is 8 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the upright bar of the carrier. My recommendation for your is to use the Hitch Extender For 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver 7" # HE06 or the 8" Curt Extender # C45791 with an Brophy Stabilizer Clamp and U-Bolt for 2" Hitch Receiver - Black Powder Coated Steel # RSCP to help reduce any sway in the adapter. You may also want to use etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - Flush Design for...

  • Light Duty Snow Plow Recommendation for Plowing Driveway
  • We do not carry any hitches for the front or rear of your 2016 Land Rover Range Rover HSE, but if you happen to have one already and just need a plow the K2 # K2AVAL8219 would be an excellent option.. For what you are looking to do this would be perfect. The rear hitch can be used for plowing as well. Check out the review video I attached for more info on this plow to see how easy it is to use.

  • Hitch Extender to be Used with Thule Bike Rack to Help Clear Spare of Vehicle
  • The best hitch extender will be the shortest one that still gives you the clearance you need. Since it sounds like you only need a little more clearance our shortest option which is the Brophy part # HE06 which is an extension that is 7 inches long. You should note that hitch extenders cut the capacity of the hitch they are installed in by 50 percent though.

  • Yakima Roof Mount Cargo Basket and a Ladder for 2006 Land Rover LR3 with Factory Roof Rack
  • Yakima does not list the MegaWarrior # Y07080 as a fit but you can use the LoadWarrior # Y07070 or the LoadWarrior with extension, # Y07070-74, on the factory roof rack on the 2006 Land Rover LR3. For a ladder you may be able to get # DZ760611 to fit though it is for a Toyota FJ Cruiser. The other potential option is # RRRFL which was designed for different roof mounted trays. But it wouldn't take much to get it to work with a cargo basket.

  • Snow Tire Chain to Fit Size 275/45R21
  • In your tire size there really isn't a low price option. The only fit we have is the Thule K-Summit # TH02230K77 which will give you excellent traction, will install easily, and will have the best possible tire clearance but the price is probably more than what you are interested in. For a Snow Sock that will fit we have the part # TCH74.

  • Recommended Hitch and Towing Bike Rack for a 2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE
  • It sounds like you have the 2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE. For this model vehicle Curt has a 2 inch trailer hitch available # 13456. The only catch is if you have a full size spare below your vehicle, after the installation of the hitch you will no longer be able to store it there. I have linked some roof mounted spare tire racks to this page for you to check out. A bike rack can mount directly into the 2 inch receiver but it sounds like you would prefer to mount a bike rack...
