Question

Question:

i am mounting tail lights in 1/8 diamondplate. is this the product i want? i just want to cut the holes and mount with a rubber grommet. i do not want to have to attach light in back or anywhere else. your video explains nothing about mounting also is a matching clear backup light available?

Yes you can install red flush mount light # 435800 in diamond plate. The grommet will hold the light in place by compression.

For a similar backup light you can use # BU45CB with grommet # A45GB and wiring harness # A45CB.

Since the Fusion GloLight Tail Light part #OPT64WR is designed to be a trailer light and not a vehicle light it does not have any resistors integrated into it. Trailer wiring does not require this because the signal comes from the vehicle wiring…

For an electric jack that will work great with your boat trailer, I highly recommend the Fulton XLT Powered Drive Trailer Jack #F141401. This is an electric, side-mount jack that will provide you with 14 inches of travel and a lift capacity of 2,500…

What's the diameter of the shaft where your current springs are installed? If they are 1-1/2 inches you could install the part #RS16933LH and #RS16933RH instead of what you have now and you'd have a much more powerful spring. But if the shaft…

Answer 9

I wouldn't be concerned with the gap on the ends of your cross tube. The only thing that matters is that the 4 bolts that you use to install the #DT35MR are snug and secure. Assuming you have installed these correctly, and used the proper torque…
