Expert Answers about Toyota T100 Pickup


  • Recommended Taillight Converter and Trailer Connector for 1998 Toyota T100 Pickup
  • The recommended taillight converter for the 1998 Toyota T100 pickup is the Tekonsha # 118496. The wiring harness plugs inline at the connection between the taillight assembly and the factory wiring harness, so it's a plug and play installation that's pretty simple with no cutting or splicing required. Once that's installed, you can covert to a 7-way by adding # 37185 or # ETBC7 if you're wanting to install a brake controller like the Tekonsha Primus, part # TK90160.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Base Rails for 1995 Toyota T100 Pickup
  • The correct replacement installation hardware and bracket kit for your Reese 10 bolt rails is the part # RP30439. This kit is intended for the Universal Base Rails # RP30035. With this in mind, the Reese Universal Base Rail - 10 Bolt Kit is actually not confirmed to fit your 1995 Toyota T100. For 5th Wheel Base Rails that are confirmed to fit, I instead recommend looking at the Demco Rails # DM8552009-71. This kit will include the base rails, brackets and all the hardware needed for installation....

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 1995 Toyota T100 Automatic Transmission
  • From the research I did on your vehicle the only way you could flat tow it is by disconnecting the driveshaft. We do not offer drive shaft disconnects but we do offer everything else needed to flat tow your vehicle. You'd need a base plate kit part # 1128-1 to provide the connection to the tow bar. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar is the...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for a R-Pod 179 Towed by 1998 T100
  • When choosing a weight distribution system, it is key to know your trailer's loaded and ready to tow tongue weight. To this tongue weight you will need to add the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle in the bed of your 1998 Toyota T100. Once you know the total tongue weight, it will be easier to choose a properly rated weight distribution system. Your R-Pod 179 has a Gross Trailer Weight of 3800 lbs. and a Tongue Weight of 350 lbs. Most people may carry anywhere from 0-200 lbs. of...

  • Recommended Brake Controller And Wiring For 1995 Toyota T100 Pickup Truck
  • Since you have no brake controller port on your T100 truck you will need to hardwire the brake controller. Your truck has separate wiring so you can use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to find a wire that shows power only when the brake pedal is pressed. Many times, the wires are run along the driver side under the door threshold. The brake controller I recommend is the Prodigy P2, part # 90885. This is our most popular because it is easy to install and operate. There are 4 wires...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1994 Winnebago on a T100 Toyota Chassis
  • The best hitch recommendation I could make for your 1994 Winnebago on a T100 Toyota chassis would be a multi-fit hitch like the # 13703.

You would want to check out the install video and instructions I attached to see how it would install and compare it to your setup. You would not be able to carry a motorcycle carrier with this hitch...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for 1996 Toyota T100

You will need the separate fifth wheel rail kit to go with it as well which is part # DM8552009-71. There will be drilling into the frame and bed as well.

  • Back up Camera Recommendation to See Behind an Airstream Trailer
  • You can only extend mirrors out so far before they become a hazard. In this case the best solution would be a camera system. We have several camera systems available but I recommend the Swift Hitch, # 04928. The camera has a magnetic base or it can me attached with screws. It turns on by pushing the button on the camera so you do not have to have it wired into the trailer or vehicle wiring. It even has night vision. The battery life on this model is 4 hours before it will need a recharge....

  • Recommended Brake Controller and Wiring for the 1996 Toyota T100 Pickup SR5 4x4 Pickup Truck

Also, The intensity with which your trailer brakes are activated and the rate at which they are applied are dependent on the deceleration of your 1996 Toyota T100 pickup.

  • Adding a 7 Pole to my 1997 Toyota T100
  • Yes you can use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 5-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C56513 to use as the basis for your 7 pole connector. Once this is installed I recommend cutting the connector off and using heat shrink butt connectors like part # DW05744-10 to connect to the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires part # ETBC7. This simply eliminates a connection that could eventually fail. At that point just...

  • Recommended Powder Coated Steel Wheels For Goodyear Endurance ST225/75R15
  • I may have an option for you, but at this time we do not offer the Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10303 as a wheel and tire combination. With that said there are two options, if you are set on the Karrier # AM10303 you would need to purchase two wheels like Dexstar 15"x6" in White # AM20522, Black # AM20545, or Silver # AM20537 which are powder coated steel, have the 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern you are looking for, and would work great with the Karrier # AM10303...
