For your 2002 GMC Sierra 2500 you have the option of either replacing your factory mirrors with extendable towing mirrors or adding ones that clip on to your current mirrors.

To replace your factory mirrors I recommend the K-Source Custom Extendable Towing Mirrors # KS62073-74G which you can extend for when you are towing with your Sierra and then push back in for when you are not using the truck to tow. They install in the same mounting points as your current mirrors and have an extended length of 22".

Should you want to use clip-on mirrors I recommend checking out the K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990. These mirrors clip on and tighten with rubber ratcheting straps and can be taken off with the press of a quick-release button. I've added links to video reviews of both mirrors for you to take a look at.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

Yes, the Torklift Class V hitch part #TLC1205 would be a great option for your 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD long bed. If you instead had a short bed truck you would want the part #TLC1204. The 17k capacity is more than what your truck is rated for so…

Answer 7

Lance does have a proprietary plug, but many customers see a standard 6-way or 7-way round and notice it doesn't fit their factory 7-way as well. I've attached an article to help if you have one of the 7-way or 6-way round connectors which we…
