Expert Answers about Mitsubishi


  • Can a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Be Flat-Towed
  • I checked out the owner's manual for a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer and according to this, the vehicle can only be transported on a tow dolly. The only models we offer a tow dolly for are front wheel drive as these can be towed from the front with the front wheels off the ground. The other models will either need to have the rear wheels or all wheels off the ground. I recommend checking out page 6-23 if you need further clarification. For a tow dolly, I recommend the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with...

  • Best way to Carry Bikes on my 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer GSR
  • I have a solution but with the spoiler on the Lancer you will not be able to safely carry bikes using a trunk mount rack. Instead the SeaSucker Mini Bomber Roof 2 Bike Rack part # Item # 298-BM2006 will allow you to carry 2 bikes or the SeaSucker Bomber Roof 3 Bike Rack part # 298-BB3008 to carry three bikes. These are pricey but eliminate the need to also purchase a roof rack system. This rack is very cool and will look great on your GSR. The cups hold it on the vehicle so tight there...

  • Parts Needed to Install Thule Aero Bars on 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
  • It does look like you have a set of Thule aero style crossbars which could be reused on your 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV with flush rails. Thule no longer uses the Rapid Podium feet though so you'd need new feet and a new fit kit which we offer with the part # TH710601 and # TH186016 for the fit kit.

  • Trailer Hitch that Fits 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
  • Yes, we do have the Curt hitch part # C13079 that is a confirmed fit for your 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport and bolts on for install without requiring drilling. If you need trailer wiring too you'd want the Teksonsha kit part # TK67VR which installs easily without splicing and is very reliable.

  • Does Trailer Wiring Harness for 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander Tap into Hatch Opening Mechanism
  • The Tekonsha trailer wiring harness part # 118482 that you referenced which is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander doesn't tie into the rear hatch opening wiring actually. It plugs into the taillight connectors of your vehicle so yours not having the electric hatch opener would not be an issue.

  • Recommended Ball Mount for 2013 Mitsubishi Outlander to Tow 2016 Scamp Trailer Level
  • For the height off the ground we measure from the top inside of the receiver tube to the ground. Then for a ball mount it sounds like you have an 8 inch rise which isn't quite tall enough. We have a couple of taller fixed mount options in the Draw-Tite Ball Mount - 9-3/4" Rise # 80248 and the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 10-3/4" Rise # AMSC12 but that still won't get you to the exact height needed. The Convert-A-Ball option will get you close enough to be safe but the trailer...

  • Recommended Hitch And Wiring For A 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander
  • The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK46VR designed for your 2022 Mitsubishi Outlander will be a separate part needed and will not be included with a hitch. However, this is a plug and play harness and will be a quick and easy install, though one wire will need to be run to the battery for needed power. If you have not decided upon a Hitch yet, the American made Curt Class III Hitch # C87WR available that is also designed specifically for your vehicle is highly recommended. This...

  • Recommended Draw Bar for Curt Class I Hitch on a 2019 Mitsubishi Mirage G4
  • The draw bar that is recommended to be used with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11449 on your 2019 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 is the Curt # C45521 which has a 2-5/8" Rise/3-1/4" Drop. To secure this to the hitch receiver you need a pin & clip # F-4 or locking hitch pin # C23517 and then you also need a hitch ball like the 1-7/8" # A-80 or 2" A-82. A complete towing setup also requires wiring to activate the trailers lights. For your application I recommend the Tekonsha ZCI # 119250KIT because...

  • Class 2 Or Class 3 Hitch For 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
  • For your 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Part # C13398 is going to be your only option at this time. It is rated as a Class 3 hitch that provides a tongue weight rating of 350 pounds, and a maximum tow rating of 3500 pounds. Although I would not recommend towing more that the manufacturers tow rating for your vehicle. If you are planning on towing a trailer, I also recommend the Curt Upgraded Circuit Protected Powered Tail Light Converter Wiring Kit Item...

  • Towing Capacity of Curt Hitch for a 1996 Mitsubishi Montero
  • You are correct. The Curt hitch part # 13091 that you referenced is rated for towing up to 4,000 lbs. Because of that you would be limited to only towing that even if your vehicle is rated to tow more. In a towing setup your overall towing capacity is only as strong as the weakest component. So in your case it would be the hitch at 4k. Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise...

  • Aero Bar Roof Rack that Fits 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
  • For your 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport with a naked roof that has fixed mounting points for a roof rack the Thule Evo Bar roof rack part numbers # TH711220, # TH460R, and # THKIT3093 is a confirmed fit and would give you an excellent roof rack that is high quality and very quiet. If you were looking for a flush bar setup where the bars did not extend past the feet of the rack the Rhino Rack ROC25 part # RR59MR would be a great solution too that's quieter and high quality.

  • Are There Self-Adjusting 10 Trailer Brakes with Parking Brake Feature
  • The only 10" electric trailer braking assemblies we offer with a parking brake is the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # K23-086-087-00 and these are indeed manual adjust. We don't offer any self-adjust with parking brake at this time unfortunately.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer
  • The trailer hitch for your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer that I recommend using is the Curt Hitch Receiver # C11328. It has a max Gross Trailer Weight of 2,000 lbs and a max Tongue Weight of 200 lbs. There is a note on the warranty saying that all non-trailer loads should be supported with stabilizing straps, like part # 18050, otherwise the warranty is voided. This trailer hitch is not compatible with Evolution, Ralliart, and Dual Exhaust models. Keep in mind that you will need to check your...

  • 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander GT V6
  • Now if your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way. If you do have trailer brakes you would need the # ETBC7 instead of the # 37185 and a brake controller. This kit comes with everything needed to wire up the 7-way and install a brake controller. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how...

  • Hitch Wiring Recommendation for Mitsubushi Outlander Sport 2015
  • We have a custom fit for trailer wiring for a 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport but it would require your vehicle to have LED taillights. For that you would want the part # C56127. If you do not have LED taillights you would want the part # C59496 instead. I checked our systems and we did not get any emails from your email address last week. If you didn't get an immediate email back saying we would be getting to your question as soon as possible then most likely the wrong email address...

  • Curt Hitch Recommendation for Carrying a Bike Rack on a 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch part # C13079 that you referenced has a 2 inch opening and would work well with a bike rack that is designed for hitches with 2 inch openings like the model you referenced. Curt recommends the use of a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 any time you carry a non-supported load like a bike rack or cargo carrier. Check out the installation instructions I attached for this product I attached.

  • Blue Ox Base Plates to Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter and Flat Towing a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  • In order to use your Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar, # RM-522, with Blue Ox Base Plates, you will need to use an adapter. The correct adapter is Roadmaster Tow Bar to Blue Ox Brackets Adapter, # RM-031. The correct base plates for a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse are # BX1941. If your 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse has an F4A51 or F4A42 automatic transmission, you will need to use a transmission lube pump to flat tow it. If it has a 5 speed manual transmission, it can be flat-towed. If it has...

  • Replacement Spindle Recommendation for Dexter # 42
  • Looks like you are in need of a number 42 spindle like the part # TRU37FR. The numbers you listed aren't part numbers but judging by the shape of what you sent in a picture of this is a match. You still might verify this though by measuring where the bearings ride. If those dimensions are 1.25 and 1.74 inch then this is the correct.

  • Recommended Roof Rack And Carrier For Two Kayaks On 2011 Mitsubishi Lancer 5-Door Sportback
  • For your 2011 Lancer 5-door I recommend the Thule Roof Rack. You asked about the wind noise difference between square and aero crossbars and without a doubt the WingBar crossbars with the Thule roof rack are considerably quieter than any square bars on the market. On the Thule roof rack the WingBar crossbars have integrated T-slots that can be used for accessories and it also has rubber stripping in the T-slots with a textured surface that greatly reduces wind drag and noise. for this...
