Replacement 7-Way Mounting Bracket Solution for 2012 Chevy Tahoe
Question:
Hello, I have a 2012 Chevy Tahoe and the bracket for the trailer wiring plug is completely rusted away. The plug just flops around. What repair parts or solution do you recommend? Thank you, John

Hey John, so the factory 7-way mounting bracket of a 2012 Chevy Tahoe would have been built into the rear bumper so if that's rusted away what you'd need to do is use a bracket like the part # PK12711U which attaches to the lower rear bumper edge and has the universal 7-way mounting bolt pattern. If your 7-way mounts using a twist lock style attachment you'd also need to replace it with the part # A10-7072VP.
